I can't even talk today. My voice is gone.
BTW, I was upgraded to 23AA Row 2 for the game. OH YEAH!!
Two rows behind the Bucks. Absolutely amazing!
No rematch. UM had their chance. We're moving on. It's either: UF, Ark or USC.
Ra,
I'd like to see USC also but everyone thinks the SEC is the best conference in the land so I say bring on the SEC champ.
GO BUCKS!!!

i think michigan and ohio st. are two of the top teams, but they shouldn't rematch... there needs to be a new team to play them... i think usc and notre dame are over rated, but the winner of that game will probably be playin' them for the championship. however, i think that if arkansas wins out they should play ohio state. here i can step into a dissertation on why i think this, but that's beyond the scope of this site... but hey, who's going on road trips to what bowl games and taking their 8's?

Notre Dame won't get the nod over Michigan. USC will get the nod by their default dismantling of Arkansas early in the season. Florida seems to be the wild card, and they have more than enough talent to compete with Ohio State.

handled Michigan!? if they handled them, then Michigan wouldn't have scored that many times! for some reason ya'll yankees only look at offenses! The only thing that game showed was that those teams have amazing offenses, and said nothing for their defenses! if either defense was as amazing as the offenses, it would have been a lower scoring game.

When OSU plays Mich, all the stats are thrown out the window because, its such a fierce rivalry that anything goes! Look how good both defenses were this past season, both were basically the top team in every category. OSU lead the nation in least avg points allowed per game all season and Michigan had the #1 rush defense all year...and ****..what did the bucks do...they ran all over the mich defense.
Bottom line: I dont think there should be a rematch. Michigan had their chance and didnt win. So they should be done and out. Mich might be the best #2 team in the nation, but they had their chance...so they should of dropped in the rankings and give someone else a try to beat the Bucks (which we all know wont happen).
All I gotta say is GO BUCKS and bring on the next bitch!
ps. I am seriously thinking about taking a road trip out to AZ for the game!

Also, one more thing.....
If OSU center didnt botch those 2 snaps and that deflection that caused the INT, OSU would of ran away with the game...you all know it! But those 3 stupid mistakes would of make a huge difference in the outcome. But im not complaining..Bucks won and thats all that matters! I dont care if its by 1 point or 45 points, a win is a win in my eyes! I know both defenses gave up alot of yards and points, but oh well. I enjoyed the game and I was going crazy!

2. Michigan is the #1 rush defense all year
Big Ten football is all about defense.

The topic can and will be debated until Jan. 8. I believe that if you haven't won your conference title than you have no right being in the BCS title game. The BCS in general is a crappy system and everyone knows it.
Can you all imagine a six team playoff with first round byes? I think it would be great and then there would never be this drama. Skip the meaningless games at the beginning of the year when Div. 1A schools are playing St. Mary's School for the Deaf & Blind and had the playoff at the end of the year. The rest can go to bowl games like usual.
A nice scenerio might be that USC beats ND and then loses to UCLA. Allowing the SEC Champ to possibly slide into the title game. I think that it would be the most exciting of all the options.

Looks like after Friday, we are down to only USC, Michigan or Florida to be Ohio State's opponent in the Championship game. I think Florida will lose either to FSU or in the SEC title game though.
I'm not sure if ND can pull off the upset, but it may leave Michigan as the only worthy one-loss team. I haven't decided if I want that to happen yet or not. I do know it would be a great game to watch, and I would predict that there would be A LOT fewer points scored the second time around.
I wonder why WVU is not being talked about at all, I guess they're too low in the BCS standings? They were media darlings up until the Louisville game. Only one loss still, and likely to stay that way.....

I don't disagree. I was dreading Big East in the Championship Game until they all conveniently got knocked off one by one.
Glad to see the Big 12 is out of the picture as well...

Looks like the media has already forgotten about the OSU-UM game and is jumping on the USC bandwagon! I hope UCLA shows up and brings USC back down to earth.
All this talk about Notre Dame in the Rose Bowl with Michigan is driving me crazy too. Why would anyone condone this "rematch" over a OSU-UM rematch? Notre Dame doesn't belong in the BCS to begin with and pitting them against Michigan again would be pointless!
I would rather see UM play Louisville or one of the SEC teams.
