Location: Glendale, Arizona
Tie-ins: CFP No. 2/CFP No. 3

Dabo Swinney’s Tigers had an easy time with South Carolina in their annual showdown, so all eyes turn to their tricky date with Virginia Tech in the ACC title game.
Meanwhile, the Buckeyes played an instant classic against Michigan, as the Buckeyes prevailed at home in double overtime. Despite Urban Meyer’s  squad not having a chance to play for its own league crown, it would be awfully difficult for the CFP selection committee to pass up this squad.

Peach Bowl Projection: No. 1 Alabama vs. No. 4 Washington

Meanwhile, the Huskies had an easy time against Washington State in the Apple Cup, so they will turn their attention to a very dangerous Colorado squad in the Pac-12 title game.

College Football National Championship Game

Turner Falls- Davis, OK

Turner Falls in Davis, OK-
My grandpa was raised in Davis and we have a cabin that has been in the family for over 80 years.  It is a great place to take the kids in the summer.  There are many waterholes to swim and fish in as well as hiking.  There are a few neat caves that you can hike to as well.  It is beautiful during the fall season.  That is my favorite time to be there for the hiking and fall leaves.
