You would save a lot of time if you just went back a few threads and read all this stupid stuff, but I will give it to you anyway because I know everyone loves to listen to Michigan fans.

Michigan's schedule #3 and Florida's was #1.. HUGE DIFFERENCE?!?!!

Michigan handled every team they played, outside of tOSU.
Florida needed about 40 blocked kicks vs usc.
Florida needed some botched punt vs Arkansas.
Florida needed 10 turn overs from every good team they barely beat.

Michigan lost to the #1 team by 3 at tOSU.
Florida lost to a decent 2 loss team on the road.

You go look at it.

As for hte number 2 arguement. Look at Michigans game by game perforance conversely against UF. Beside Michigans loss to the bet team i nthe nation, Michigan won every game pretty easily. Its closest game, Ball State, was a 3 score lead at the end of the third quarter.

Florida could have easily lost three games if the SEC knew how to kick field goals...

Good one danman, you get upset when someone calls you "sparky" then you call another poster dumb?

I fully expect it.

dRaFtDoRk · 12-12-2006, 06:24 PM

I voted for Michigan. I think they have too many weapons on defense to overpower USC. I'm defenitly looking forward to the Dwayne Jarrett vs. Leon Hall match-ups that will occur that game. I think LaMar Woodley will have a good game coming off the edge and take down JDB a couple times. I also look for Manningham to have a great game.

Final Score

Michigan 31 vs. Southern Cal 21

Alright, let's put it this way, if tOSU loses to florida, are you michigan fans still gonna complain about not playing in the NC? What if you guys lose to USC, are you guys still gonna complain about not having been able to play in the NC? you guys aren't number 2 the rest of the world has got over it, so should you.

What is it you guys want? a plaque or trophy that says you guys are the 2nd best team in America? How bout instead of letting you guys have a rematch with tOSU, we just give you guys the NC?

RWFender1 · 12-12-2006, 06:36 PM

the answer to the question is Michigan is going to keep on bitchin' about their position in any scenario because thats what they do best

RWFender1 · 12-12-2006, 06:37 PM

Also anyone who thinks the Big 10 is harder than the SEC is clearly dillusional, I dont care if some of the SEC teams may have been a little overrated this year the Big 10 was still softer. And you are talking about how dominant Michigan is against teams like Bowling Green and Ball State? Big whoop

I wanna give Ohio State the trophy and play Florida. That's what I want. Is that good enough for you? And don't for one second act like, if USC beat UCLA but Michigan got in the title game, you wouldn't be bitching. When people don't get what they want, they *****... That's life for you. Don't you dare single us Michigan fans out as the only people who are complaining. Auburn fans bitched in 2004, USC fans bitched in 2003, Oregon fans bitched in 2001, Kansas State fans bitched in 1998, Miami fans bitched in 2000. See a trend? When people don't get what they want, they *****. Get over it. If you don't like bitching, stop acknowledging people who *****.

How about beating ND by 26 on the road, or pasting Wisconsin? That bad?

RWFender1 · 12-12-2006, 10:16 PM

I am singling Michigan out because they are the ones who are bitching about where they are...if they didn't want to be number 3 they should have beaten Ohio State...simple fact.

Second, you are right I would have been apalled if USC wasn't able to leap Michigan after being a mid season 1 loss team where as Michigan had just lost at the very end of the season and they lost to the same opponent they would have been playing in the title game.

I would be in favor of Michigan going to the title game if Ohio State wasn't going and they lost early than they did......hell, id even slightly consider giving Michigan a rematch had it had been a loss midway or beginning of the season to Ohio State but thats not how it went. They lost their final game (just like USC). Michigan and USC both deserve to be at the Rosebowl in my opinion. Michigan is not some special exception to the rule. thats BS

12-12-2006, 10:18 PM

RW i doubt you watched Michigan outside of the OSU game. Michigan has been dominant all season, they have not escaped out of games like USC has.

RWFender1 · 12-12-2006, 10:22 PM

Wrong, I have watched Michigan outside of Ohio State...I havent been watching every single game but I have been following them.

Michigan owed their dominance to a pretty soft schedule. The only real big opponent they faced was Ohio State.

12-12-2006, 10:22 PM

BCS poll has Michigan over USC when both were undefeated.
