USC lost to an UNRANKED TEAM!

USC moved up when they beat Notre Dame.....yea, Michigan killed Notre Dame back when Notre Dame was ranked 2nd in the nation!

I hope USC gets killed by UCLA.....or just beat

anyway you look at it, UofM should be #2

11/27/2006 2:34:52 PM

ok, sure, they can have the #2 spot, but they shouldnt play in the NC game, cause we all know that would be stupid

11/27/2006 2:35:42 PM

haha, of course im gonna approve of this thread

HAIL TO THE VICTORS!

11/27/2006 2:36:17 PM

I approve of anything that makes the BCS look silly. Therefore, I approve of Michigan getting another shot at OSU and winning on a miracle play with nothing left on the clock.

11/27/2006 2:38:24 PM

I agree.. but the BCS is terrible

11/27/2006 2:39:40 PM

Ah hell, USC's last game is Saturday. Let meechigan and the cock gloves fight it out the following weekend to see who goes to the NC.

11/27/2006 2:39:49 PM

i've always opposed a playoff system, but this season has made a believer out of me. only 6 or 8 teams, though.

better yet, do away w/ the NC and go back to having bowl games that actually have tradition and mean something. and do away w/ every team in the country w/ a .500 record getting a bowl game, it's getting out of hand.

11/27/2006 2:47:29 PM

If U of M wanted to play in the championship, then they should have beaten tOSU.

Everyone knew before the game that the loser would not be in the NC if USC beat ND.

They had their chance. Tough shit.

11/27/2006 2:51:31 PM

BOISE STATE!!!!!

STILL UNDEFEATED

11/27/2006 2:51:39 PM

I say let U of M play for it. Repeat games are more fun anyway.

11/27/2006 2:52:20 PM

Happy Cat demands tOSU vs Rutgers!!!!1111

11/27/2006 2:53:17 PM

^^^^Youre wrong. They were in a hostile environment. They lost by fucking 3, less than what most people consider to be "homefield advantage." They never got a fair shot at a neutral site. There is no way they shouldnt be in the championship game.

this guy is correct, people just don't understand big ten football and home field advantage in the horseshoe i guess...

michigan only losing by 3 should have been enough

11/27/2006 2:56:51 PM

what a bunch of liberal pussies..."waaa no one can "lose", everyone has to win, just keep playing till everyone wins at least once waaa"


ok, if there was a rematch, and Ohio State lost, then they would be split, so would you have to play ANOTHER game to break the tie?


and dont give me that "lost by 3, wasnt a neutral field" shit. First off, it wasnt nearly that close, they got a gimme TD late after the game was already over, and something tells me if Michigan had lost by "3" at michigan, you all would still be bitching about a rematch.

Michigan had their chance, and failed. Give someone else a chance.

11/27/2006 3:01:30 PM

it wasnt on a neutral field, the horseshoe is not carter finley, its a big deal, michigan deserves another shot

11/27/2006 3:03:51 PM

no, that is just grasping at any little thing you can to want a rematch... once again

so basically, michigan deserves a rematch

but GO BRUINS just to make sure

11/27/2006 3:06:49 PM

Dude, if you watched the game, you'd know that Michigan got outplayed up and down the field. It was just a couple of bad tunrovers that even kept them in the game. Besides, I look forward to USC winning their 3rd NC in 4 years.

And I certainly hope you're not hanging your argument on who beat ND when, because everyone and their mothers know that ND is severely overrated.

USC HAS BEATEN 3 POSSIBLE BCS TEAMS
1) ARKANSAS 50-14
2) NEBRASKA 28-10
3) NOTRE DAME 44-24
(ALL NON-CONFERENCE GAMES)

LETS LOOK AT MICHIGAN'S BIG WINS AND THEIR NONCONFERENCE
1) NOTRE DAME 47-21
2) VANDERBILT 27-7
3) CENTRAL MICHIGAN 41-17
4) BALL STATE 34-26

*THEY DID BEAT WISCONSIN 27-13 WHO PLAYED NOBODY THEMSELVES!!!

LOOK WOLVERINE BONEHEADS QUIT CRYING YOU HAD YOUR SHOT AND YOU LOST


P.S. THE OHIO STATE GAME WAS NOT A 3 POINT GAME IT WAS CONSISTENTLY A 8-10 POINT GAME, IT WASNT CLOSE

blah blah cry cry

usc got the fuck beat out of em by oregon state, they got 2 lucky td's to pull it close and still lost, and you say michigan got one lucky td to pull within 3... oh yea that was against ohio state though...

oh a couple bad turnovers?? yea thats part of the game, dont run out of shotgun, thats bad coaching, and michigan being the awesome team that they are capitalized on them... they are no joke, MICHIGAN VS OHIO STATE REMATCH

a rematch is less boring than seeing usc in the title game for the 4th straight year

11/27/2006 3:11:28 PM

I'm not a Michigan fan, I'm just saying that USC lost to an unranked opponent and Michigan lost to the number 1 BCS team at their home. Who deserves a shot?

11/27/2006 3:11:34 PM

USC WOULD BEAT MICHIGAN IF THEY PLAYED THIS WEEKEND

35-21

11/27/2006 3:15:53 PM

MICHIGAN FANS ARE A BUNCH OF PUSSYASS CRYBABIES!!

11/27/2006 3:17:01 PM

man i just stumbled into a nest of USC dickriders

11/27/2006 3:20:01 PM

The Michigan argument is based on one game from each schedule, the loss. Compare the wins of the two teams and you'll see that Michigan has no business in a national championship

michigan 35 usc 17 if they played

11/27/2006 3:21:29 PM

not only did michigan come within 3 pts (and you can yap about how they didn't "deserve" TDs, same for OSU too), they did it with 110,000 fans screaming at the QB who had 1/4 second to make a decision against the #1 rated team in the nation (which at the time the rank value was only a few THOUSANDTHS of a point away)......its not so much that anyone wants a rematch, just have it be what it should be......it makes the entire ranking system look completely stupid

11/27/2006 3:24:23 PM

/conspiracy theory warning

so one thing about the mich/osu game is that michigan players straight up slipped and fell down on at least 3 different occasions that i noticed where the field simply gave way. now maybe i only noticed it b/c the announcers mentioned something about the field being redone, but it seemed strange that the mich players slipped that much and osu never did.

11/27/2006 3:28:25 PM

PLAYOFFS ARE THE ONLY ANSWER

BOYCOTT THE BCS GAMES

WE NEED A PLAYOFF SYSTEM

IT WILL SUCK TO GET JOBBED BY A RANKING SYSTEM

big fucking deal, so for now on anytime a team loses in a hostile environment we should just hold their hands and tell them "awww thats ok little bitches, we wont count that loss, you had a bunch of meanies yelling at you and hurting your feelings, you can try again in a few weeks, it will all be ok little bitches"

and ohio state can hold 110,000 now?

11/27/2006 3:45:24 PM

Michigan should be in the NC because they are still the second best school in the nation, losing only to #1.

I also agree with Herbstreit that they should use a plus 1 system where it's #1 vs #4 and #2 vs #3 with the winners facing off for the championship.

11/27/2006 3:45:47 PM

maybe we should just have Michigan and USC play each other for #2 and give tOSU the title

OH YEAH

I WANNA CROWN 'EM

you must go to carolina or some shit cause you are missing the point... compare that loss (michigans) in the horseshoe, to getting owned @ oregon state, which happened to USC
.... if you can understand that and say,,, yea I'm right,,, then you've redeemed yourself

11/27/2006 4:04:11 PM

Michigan had a chance against Ohio State and couldnt cut it. Someone else gets a chance, this is America, not Russia.

11/27/2006 4:06:28 PM

neutral field

11/27/2006 4:06:48 PM

I bet Florida wished they could have played Auburn on a neutral field.

11/27/2006 4:09:14 PM

ok, dumbnuts, so lets go back into the season and anytime someone lost an away game it doesnt count...Ok, in that case Florida is undefeated and played a much harder schedule, they should be in then.


^ EXACTLY



and you know his little head is thinking right now.. "but but but that wasnt against the #1 team! and and that was a 10 point loss, not 3!"

fucking revisionist bullshit

For all you OSU babies who can't stand to think UofM would beat you in the NC, USC will do it to you anyway. I was really impressed by their "handling" of ND, not to say it wasn't expected. Pete Carroll at it again, and I'm a Michigan fan.

11/27/2006 4:12:34 PM

a team that didn't even win their conference should never be in the national championship game, period.

11/27/2006 4:19:38 PM

i agree

11/27/2006 4:20:12 PM

Under the current format I also agree but with one qualifier. Unless there are no other teams with the same amount of losses, which is possible but not likely at all.

11/27/2006 4:21:17 PM

disagree, the two best teams in the country should play for the title, and they are in the same conference

So if Indy and Dallas meet in the superbowl and Indy wins they should play another game because they went 1-1 on the season? Give me a break its the NC (superbowl in my example), winner takes all.

Take a look at their conference games. Three games against unranked teams winning by one touchdown? Doesn't exactly go along with your USC is beastly and dominated all these good teams. Michigan has only game within a touchdown and that is to a good Penn State team that whose only losses come to ranked teams (Notre Dame, Ohio State, Michigan, Wisconsin).


I don't really care who goes to the NC but I do think Michigan is the better team and deserves to go. Maybe you USC humpers aughta be complaining that the BCS sucks instead.

4 team playoff sounds good to me. Or if you want to make the #1 ranking worth something do a 4 team playoff for second place (BCS 2-5) and the winner plays #1 in the NC.

Anyway unless UCLA keeps the game close or wins I suspect USC will go to the NC just to passify the public outcry that would happen if Michigan played (who I think should).

Ball State was a one score game. Margin of victory still doesn't matter.

11/27/2006 4:23:52 PM

^^^ put the problem is you act like Michigan is by far and away the best team... I would agree with you that if Ohio State was 12-0, Michigan was 11-1, and Florida, USC etc were 6-6, then yes, they should have a rematch. But when we are talking about multiple 1 loss teams and one of those has JUST played the undefeated team, then someone else should get a chance

11/27/2006 4:26:01 PM

its not about CHANCES haha, you just dont get it.... its about deciding who is the second best team in college football still, meaning RIGHT NOW, and michigan has proven that more than USC

11/27/2006 4:26:06 PM

^^ don't be an idiot.

^ I disagree. I feel USC has beaten more quality teams. I feel their overall resume is better than Michigans. But it's stupid to continue arguing that point since neither one of us is gonna change our minds..
