1. The Alabama Crimson Tide are one win away from playing for another national championship and keeping a streak alive for the state of Alabama. If the Tide can win another BCS title, it will be the fourth straight for the state. In the four major sports plus college football and men's college basketball, only twice has a state/province won four consecutive championships with multiple teams. From 1949-56, New York won eight straight World Series titles with the Yankees, Giants and Dodgers. And from 1987-90, the province of Alberta won four straight Stanley Cup championships with Edmonton and Calgary (since 1927 when NHL assumed control of Stanley Cup)
