#2 Texas gets a shot at its second national championship in 4 years when they take on the #1 Alabama Crimson Tide. The BCS championship game will be played January 7, 2010 at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, Calif. That’s the place where Vince Young led Texas to a victory over Southern California in 2006 to claim the national title.

The game features two Heisman Trophy hopefuls in Colt McCoy of the Longhorns and Mark Ingram of the Crimson Tide.

Texas and Alabama meet for the first time since the 1982 Cotton Bowl — a 14-12 Longhorns win over the Tide and legendary coach Bear Bryant.
