2008 NCAA Football Virtual Playoffs Elite Eight

Northern Illinois (112) @ Virginia (25)
Final Score: Virginia 35, Northern Illinois 14
Virginia advances to play Florida (29) in the Final Four

(Strange scoring in this one. It went into halftime with the score 21-0, then the two teams combined for 28 points in the first 90 seconds of the second half...and didn't score again after that.)

Florida (29) @ Boston College (12)
Final Score: Florida 34, Boston College 7
Florida advances to play Virginia (25) in the Final Four

(Back in the early 1990s, Boston College's mens basketball team made a huge tournament run, including an upset of top-ranked North Carolina, only to be stopped in the Elite Eight by the sharp-shooting Florida Gators (God, who was the best player on that Florida team? It's on the tip of my tongue...somebody help before I go crazy thinking about this, please?). Coming in, I thought maybe this game would be payback for that game; it didn't exactly turn out that way, did it?)

Arizona State (14) @ Ohio State (6)
Final Score: Arizona State 14, Ohio State 7
Arizona State advances to play Oregon (34) in the Final Four

Oregon (34) @ USC (7)
Final Score: Oregon 14, USC 0
Oregon advances to play Arizona State (14) in the Final Four
