Unfortunately its hard to put a team in the national championship game that doesn't even win its conference.

damn all of you for not responding to my Boise St claim...why don't they deserve a shot?

One other thing.

The only thing people say all the time that they are more wrong about than:
"It's hard to beat a team twice in the same year"
is:
"It's hard to beat a team three times in the same year."

There is no basis for this in any sport. In fact, as Frank points out, it's the opposite.

Gris, I'm often shocked with how much bad info is posted. So much is based on opinion and not fact. It's no wonder that 95% of sport bettors lose. The bet based on opinion and bad info.

I guess what would truly be fair is if Michigan played Florida for the right to play Ohio State.....I say that jokingly

Would anyone be shocked if Florida beats Ohio State and then played Michigan a week later and lost? ANYONE?

The system is utter garbage just like when an undefeated Auburn got jobbed a few years back

And Griffey......Tressel is 4-1 v Michigan unless they faced off before the Michigan Ohio State games.....4-1 is not good but 6-1 is a stretching it just a bit

PEACE

I just tried to recall based on memory...6-1 was wrong....but 4-1 was wrong also. So next time you try and say someone is wrong you better make sure you have it right.

Isn't it possible for the two best teams in the country to be from the same conference?

[frazer43]

how sweet would this be

#1 OSU
#8 Boise St.

#4 LSU
#5 USC

#3 Michigan
#6 Louisville

#2 Florida
#7 Wisconsin

Now fuck the BCS and give the country what it wants a playoff

[MtrCtyPimp]

no offense but 678 have no shot thats like a waste of time

1-4 would make evryone happy though and we will know once and for all who is the best

PEACE

Only if those teams are playing in one of the toughest conferences in the nation, and the Big 10 is not one of those.

[LVJimmy]

I think your last paragraph states something that is being grossly overlooked. All I keep hearing about is how Michigan got shafted, but what about Boise St? I know people will say they aren't that good, they didn't play a tough schedule, OSU would throttle them, etc., but what were people saying about the BCS Title Game before UCLA beat USC? Nobody thought UCLA could/would beat USC just like nobody thinks Boise deserves a shot at OSU. IMO, it's BS, and there have been greater upsets so why not give Boise a shot. If anyone remembers that undefeated Utah team a few years ago, I watched a lot of their games being a MWC fan, and that team was legit meaning they could've played with ANYONE, and yes, by anyone I mean USC, Oklahoma, and Auburn that year. IMO Boise is getting the bigger shaft than Michigan.

Nice fucking game Boise...this game further proves the point that a playoff needs to be put in place...all this time, all we were hearing about was how Michigan got shafted, but like I said a few weeks ago, BOISE GOT SHAFTED THE MOST, AND TODAY DEFINITELY PROVED THAT.

[harold_bush]

agree, butthankfully it happened the way it did, b/c it is apparent from the bowl games that Michigan and Ohio State were both terribly overrated. It would have been a travesty to see both of those teams playing for a national championship. THe only reason that OSU/Michigan was so good was b/c both teams play weak defense and neither could stop the other. I'm not saying the SEC is necessarily the best (even though I think they are) conference, but they are definitely the best defensive conference.

[harold_bush]

In hindsight it looks like Florida/USC would have been the game.
