now Michigan did score a late TD and two-point conversion Florida was down by 4 to auburn and did that dumb "let's pass the ball to each other" ala Cal-Stanford allowing auburn to score a TD on a fumble to win by 10 (not 4) you never know, the late Michigan TD, and UF foolishness could make the slight difference in who gets #2 but I'd still maintain it should be two conference champions IF there are only two spots if you want to make a playoff with 4, 8, 16 teams~then whatever |

I saw the Fla-Auburn game, I saw the LSU-Bama game, I saw the USC- Cal game this past week, etc. The Ohio ST -Mich game was a display of power by both squads. IMO the level they played at, both teams, would squash any of the other teams being mentioned. |

the strength of Ohio State? or that there should be a rematch? I'm saying Arkansas can't beat both LSU and Florida in consecutive weeks I saw most of the OSU-Mich anyway, because I was so disheartened by the way my team was playing anyhow, my opinion is there should not be a rematch, Arkansas is a 2-3 loss team, and SC is young and talented and will give ND a real tussle oh and OSU couldn't beat LSU and UF on the same day |

If you are a USC fan not so much. I've seen both play, and it will be a bloodbath. OSU is better at all positions, and on the lines just so much better its not funny. They'd push USC's line around like rag dolls. |

What game were you watching. I'm not kidding, OSU could beat an allstar team from both the LSU-Fla squads on the road. Fla sure looked highly impressive beating South Carolina at home by a point because SC botched the field goal didn't they? How about LSu having to go to OT at home to beat Miss? Dude, you are WAY out there on this one. |

17 winners so far in his first crop, not one of them out of a mare you ever heard of. They wanna go long, and are only going to get better. Forget the football games and betting, just take that spare cash and go and buy some Jump Starts and give em to your main man out there. |

Real fair Oracle?
Ohio St. goes 2-0 vs. Michigan and wins Nat. Championship Michigan goes 1-1 vs. Ohio State and wins Nat. Championship. No way. MOve on. Next. Ohio St. really outplayed them badly despite the score. I thought Michigan's defense got ripped. Next please. USC or Florida , West Virginia or even Arkansas (not even close to the same team that got trounced by USC 1st game) I would even accept ND, dont think they beat USC though. BUT NOT MICHIGAN AGAIN. ITS DONE. playoffs, will we ever see them in my lifetime... |

the reason the rematch should be null and void is we don't know the strength of the Big Ten~ it looks top-heavy to me with OSU, Michigan & Wisconsin: and OSU didn't even play Wisconsin, The SEC has 5 teams in the BCS top 15!

So you think the Florida Florida St rematch was unfair? Only thing that woulda been unfair that year woulda been Florida losing the championship due to a narrow road loss vs FSU. They were the two best teams, they rematched on a neutral field, and Florida pounded the hell out of them. Very deserving national champs they were. I'm sorry but regualr season games aren't played on a neutral site. You obviously don't realize the 3-4 point advantage given by vegas(if they don't know, who does?) to the home team. Any road loss falling within that margin of error is conisidred close enough to have the game designated as one that neither team distinguished superiority. Its not like NFL playoff football, where the home team in playoffs has earned it by superior regualr season record, its simply an every other year swap thing. One question Pgard, I'll give you three matchups OSU- Florida OSU-USC OSU- Michigan which game has the closest vegas spread between the teams? |

I thought the FSU deal was unfair
college gives you home field advantage one year, and away the next if you get beat away, wait until next year plus why does Vegas have any say in the National Championship? OSU could not have gone through this minefield: at Tennessee Alabama LSU at auburn UGA SEC Championship: vs. Arkansas without suffering a loss, no way |

Bcs
Anyone but Notre Dame. Beating up on the three service acadamies should get you nothing in return. Man up join a real conference Notre Dame.

Tennesee? Just ok Same with Auburn and LSU. Georgia? not even as good as the other three. Arkansas probably best of the bunch you named. Answer my question, which matchup has the closest spread. |

And what the hell does the spread have to do with anything? You rate Michigan highly for one major reason, they destroyed Notre Dame in South Bend. Michigan has played one really tough team, Ohio State. The Big 10 is BAD. I had them ranked as the toughest conference at the beginnng but I have seen too much on TV. As much as I hate to admit it because I am not a big fan of the pac-10 but... 1. SEC 2. Pac-10 I have watched many of these games and this is apparent to me. The other major conferences are about the same level. I will also add that if ND crushes USC, I would like to see them against OSU. I just dont think thats gonna happen. If it does, and Florida does not look good against Ark. in the SEC title game. OSU-ND. Problem is as we look thru a season as a whole, in hindsight it is clear ND schedule was not nearly as tough as I thought it was going to be. And they got away with some really lucky wins against bad teams, Mich St. and UCLA. LSU is the best team I personally have seen. They have not played the best football though. |

Georgia tech on the Road. USC on the road. Mich St on the Road. Michigan home. Penn St home Thats a tougher schedule than most teams. Obviously the SEC is hardest, but ND's schedule contains enough tough games to certainly call it no joke. I guess playing arizona and zona st, the oregons, etc is a real toughy huh? pac 10 is the weakest conference going. |

I'm the biggest ND fan out there, and that being said placing them in the title game over Michigan would be an embarassment to all sports. Michigan humiliated ND at the Golden Dome. No way in hell can anyone, not even a ND fan like me, justify that crap. When you lose shouldnt matter, where you lose and who you lose to and how you lose should. How the **** do you place ND with a home loss against Mich in over Mich who has a road loss by a field goal to number one? Thats gotta be the stupidest thing I ever heard, and you are talking to a guy with ND stuff on his wall, Pgard, my cell phone plays the ND fight song when it rings, I'm not kidding you, I downloaded it. But I'm no biased guy, I want ND and Weis to win a championship so very badly, I can taste it. But I don't want a tainted one, I want one where we are the best and earn it on the field. I don't want one wheer we go into a game where we don't belong and everyone says its bull****. I want ND to earn one, just like your team did last year, Texas. I want a real one that they earn. ND has no business being in a game above Mich, none. |
