Ohio State wide receiver Evan Spencer is confident his team will go to the BCS Championship, saying that the Buckeyes would "wipe the field" with both Alabama and Florida State.

Alabama is No. 1 in the BCS standings, with Florida State No. 2. Ohio State is No. 3 in this week's ranking, well back of the Seminoles.

"I'm a little biased," Spencer said. "I think we'd wipe the field with both of them."

Ohio State still has games at Illinois, against Indiana and at Michigan. They could also play in the Big Ten Championship game.

According to Zack Meisel of Cleveland.com, Spencer made those comments after he watched Alabama beat LSU and Stanford's victory over Oregon on Thursday night.

"I was the biggest Cardinal fan for three hours," Spencer said. "We needed a little bit of help, but at the same time, we still have to take care of our business and we have to go out there and show them why we're one of the best offenses in the country and show them why we have one of the best defenses in the country and why we have the best kicking game in the country."
