[goandykid]

Michigan by alot more than people expect

 

[JerseyDevil]

Ohio State by a little more then people expect

 

[goandykid]

the line is 6 1/2

 

[JerseyDevil]

Yeah? And I'm saying more then 6-1/2.

 

[goandykid]

Thanks, I like to think it is too.

 

[JerseyDevil]

Trust me. I've seen this game go Michigan's way too many times.

Honestly, I think it's a 50/50 shot.

 

[goandykid]

My last post was a joke about my penis.

 

[JerseyDevil]

It that case, it'll be less then 3.

 

[P-funk]

I can't wait for this game. Go OSU!!

 

[Double D]

I dont care anymore, lets just get it overwith! It has been nonstop coverage of this for the past 2 weeks. Gettin kinda old.

 

[goandykid]

Maybe not. If its close we might see a rematch in the national championship, both teams are so far ahead in all raknings.

 

[Double D]

I dont see that happening. The loser is done. USC will be there if they win out.

 

[goandykid]

USC sucks, their love affair w/ the BCS is the main reason the BCS should be dropped.

 

[Double D]

Doesnt matter what we think, they are always there and will be again. I dont like them either, but the bcs does.

 

[the nut]

I dont see that happening. The loser is done. USC will be there if they win out.

Yes, I would even say Florida or ND will get in before the loser of this game.

 

[Double D]

ND maybe, I dont see Florida having a shot though. To many factors. But ND has a shot with Texas as well, but I dont know, is Texas still undefeated?

 

[goandykid]

I think Florida will lsoe again before their season is over. ND was shat on by Michigan, I don't see how they would if the 'Game of the Century' is close tmorro.

 

[goandykid]

ND maybe, I dont see Florida having a shot though. To many factors. But ND has a shot with Texas as well, but I dont know, is Texas still undefeated?

Texas is done, 2 losses

 

[goandykid]

BTW RIP Bo in this thread

I disagree.

In 2003 USC was easily the best team in the country. LSU played Oklahoma in the BCS championship game. Oklahoma had no right being in that game, after losing their own conference championship game. LSU won the BCS national championship and USC was voted AP champion.

USC has lost a total of 4 regular season games from the begining of 2002 until now, and is 3-1. They have 1 BCS championship and 2 AP championships over that time. Not to mention 3 Heisman trophy winners to boot. They are easily the Elite program in the country since 2002.

The BCS sucks, period. But USC hasn't gotten anything they haven't deserved. If anything, the BCS is responsible for having one less National Championship trophy in their case.

You are correct, but standings do not relate to prior years. They don't deserve to be number 3. They barely won their last few games before their loss, and play in the PAC10

 

[the nut]

ND maybe, I dont see Florida having a shot though. To many factors. But ND has a shot with Texas as well, but I dont know, is Texas still undefeated?

Florida will prob get in before ND, provided they beat FSU, and win the SEC championship over Arkansas or Auburn.

 

[goandykid]

I still believe that the only teams that could threaten a rematch(barring a blowout) are Florida, USC, Arkansas, or Rutgers.

Rutgers would have to run the table, highly doubtful.

Florida has to run the table and win the SEC.

USC has to play Cal still, but don't deserve the 3 spot.

Arkansas would have to win their division AND the SEC

 

[the nut]

You have to remember, the BCS standings mean nothing until the regular season is over. If USC wins out over Cal and Notre Dame I would certainly put them in the championship game over the loser of Mich v OSU.

 

[goandykid]

ND is overranked too, and doesnt Cal have two losses, one being a blowout loss to a 3-loss Tennessee? Thus my point, Michigan and Ohio State are head and shoulders above ND and USC, neither deserve to play there. If this game was in Week 1 theyd both be 1 and 2 again. Or atleast should be.
