| pregnant with truth Posts: 2,174 | Ohio State yes. Florida better than Michigan? There's only one way to find out. BCS is frustrating. IMO Michigan is the #2 team but I really don't think the rivalry is healthy. I've never seen anything like it. Well, actually there's plenty of things that compare but none so complex and downright retarded. I like watching the buckeye's and Jim Tressel is probably the best coach in college football. But I don't see any reason to dislike Michigan more than any other worthy opponent. I see stupid crap like Muck Fishigan. I say Buck Fece-S. Ohio State vs Michigan is about to become a new thread. I see it as another obvious attempt to provoke us against eachother. I like Boise State. Thye've been playing on thursday nights alot the last couple years. They've got this crazy blue turf field and they wear blue uniforms. tricky for all involved. But it's not just that. I wouldn't count BSU out of any game on their own. That's not gonna happen in this instance. They're just ridiculously outmatched against OSU, Michigan, USC, Florida. Actually UCLA and BSU could go either way. Would be good rating for a great game. I think the top eight should be playoffs. I know the reasons are monetary but couldn't they just find a way to make money off playoffs? |

| Pragmatic liberal Posts: 421 | Given the current system, I think Ohio St and Florida is probably the best possible match up. I think a legitimate argument could be made for Boise St, but that would never happen in the current system. I think Michigan is clearly the second best but they had their shot and it would be unfair to other one loss teams to give them another. In the end I don't think it is going to matter much because I don't think there is another team in college football that is capable of beating Ohio St this year. They seem to be head and shoulders above everyone else. Michigan managed to keep the score close, but I watched the game and Ohio St was clearly the better team. The BCS system is seriously flawed though, and I don't think there is really any way to make it fair. There will always be controversy unless it just so happens that exactly 2 teams distinguish themselves as being better than everyone else. That did happen last year, but its not going to happen that way very often. A playoff is the only way to make it fair. Economic Left/Right -5.38 Social Libertarian/Authoritarion -4.41 |
