I think either way it will be a good game. But if Florida goes don't be surprised if OSU puts a real hurting on them. I don't think that would happen with Michigan at a neutral site the way they played at OSU. Just my  :2cents:

I am betting on OSU by at least 14.....     :grinyes:   CHris Leake is too inconsistent, and a tough defense will only make that worse for Fla....     imo..........    :cooldancing:

Since they already announced it's gonna be Florida, I'll put my 2 cents in as to why it's the right decision.  I've heard all the arguments as to whether That Team Up North should be number 2 or Fla. and I think That Team Up North is a better team than Fla.  BUT the question isn't who's the second best team, but who's the BEST team and Ohio State has already proven it ain't the Wolverines.

Not a Gator or Urban fan, but I have already watched the Michigan--Ohio State game once this year.  Michgan couldn't get it done---give someone else a chance........

 :iagree: (Oldschool - Wow! I haven't ever seen you write that much in a post!)
Michigan is still probably the better team, but they had their chance. I ran into Rev and the Pixie Duster at the Florida/Arkansas game and it was a good one.  Considering Leak spotted the Hogs 14 points through turnovers - beating them by 10 was most impressive.  If Leak can be consistent(ly good), then Florida has a chance, but the safe money is on OSU.

Go Buckeyes.................I agree there has to be some kind of playoff format......but in acuality there is, to a point. The SEC champinship game, the PAC was a no brainer, well sort of. and the Big Ten had #1 and #2 play so that was the Big Ten Champ. Actually the only factoring team that is not a member of any conference is ND. They will forever be independant, first they want to make out their own schedule, and they don't want to share the $$$$$$$$$ with any conference, they like to keep it all to themselves. We'll see how they do against a chmpionship calibar team, Ohio Stake spanked them last year in their bowl game and I see ND loosing again this year.

I think Shula go screwed!  He was the only decent name wanting to go coach at Alabama after they came off Suspension, I know there are politics involved that I dont know about but I’m just putting from an outsiders point of view.

 :stomp: What about WISCONSIN ! ! An 11-1 team in a conference with two other top 5 teams and they barely get an honorable mention, BTW, they didn't have to play Ohio State this year. We are the Big Ten + 1, Penn State, so why don't we play 11 games withing the conference, are we really the Big 11?  :roflsmiley: I still never heard the logic behind that, did they really consider dropping one of the other universities from the conference? Personally they (Wisconsin) should be playing in the bowl game that ND got invited to, and everyone knows it was an invitation, and yes Boise State deserved a lot more out of their season  :dunno:

I'm confused.  :clueless:I thought the purpose of the championship game is take the best two teams let them play on a neutral site and determine who is the best team. Yet I'm hearing people say they feel Michigan is better than Florida, but sending Florida to championship game was the right decision. So you don't want to see the best two teams play in the championship game you want to see the third best team play in the chamionship game.  :dunno: Doesn't sound like a championship game to me, it sounds like just another bowl game.

Generally speaking the logic (and it is very logical) if Michigan is/was #2 Ohio State already beat them for the Big Ten Championship. And incidently, the BCS computer poll ended with Michigan and Flordia identical, I beleieve it was like .940 or close to that.. It was the other two polls that finally decided who would play Ohio State for the National championship. So,.........it was not the computers but humans that decided the final matchup. Personally I don't feel Michigan (or Ohio State if Michigan had won) should have a rematch. For people who are not aware of this yearly game, honestly THAT game will mean as much as the national championship game. THAT game is THE game................. won / loss records and national standings are second place.

Ohio State is already a favorite, but have your nerve pills handy, it's going to be a war.
