I wish it was Mighigan, because I see them as giving the best chance to beat the Suckeyes, but it looks like the sweater vest man and his gang of thugs will get another National Championship...

In my humble opinion one of the biggest flaws with College Sports is this stupidity called preseason polls.

It depends, on whether Ohio State wins or if the game is close, on which Ohio State team shows up to play. If you go back and look at some of their games this year against mediocre teams at best, in particular their performance in the first half, you will see that they are a beatable team.

I am no fan of Ohio State and I live 15 minutes from the Campus. It is the fans of the Buckeyes that turn me off so much on this team - try living in Columbus, Ohio. Around here, everything about Ohio State is over-stated.

Come on Florida, win this baby so I don't have to hear about the possibility of Ohio State accomplishing what you will already have done - hold Championships in the same year in Basketball and Football.

I'm in the same boat as you, Curt... I would love to see Florida beat them. It's going to be a tough game for us... if we can get healthy, we might have a legit shot. I'm just excited that we made it as far as we did.

I should also state that I firmly believe that on a neutral field, Michigan would have beaten OSU. I was torn over what I thought should have happened and I think that it sucks that Michigan didn't get another shot at the Buckeyes.

Urban Meyer's initials are UM
Carr has too much class to campaign
so now he has to tell his team
"looks like California baby!"
Meyer lives a charmed life
he went undefeated w/ Utah
the same year they got rid of Zook
gets the #1 recruiting class at UF
and now plays for the NC
don't forget many of these guys
were on the team last year
when Bama spanked them 31-3
but he's played 27 freshman
51 days off makes you fat
the FLA freshman burn them
and pull off a shocking upset!

How can't you guys get healthly, the game is 30 days from now, all muscle strains should be completely cool by then

I don't know a lot about muscle strains and the time it takes to heal them, so I'll take your word on it... I just know that Arkansas was on a mission to injure our players. Bunch of BS if you ask me...

I dont blame the people for picking Fla to play in the game but come on if anyone in there right mind thinks that Fla will beat OSU your crazy this game won't be close, Fla too mistake prone to even hang around, this game will be over before halftime, 51 days of rest isnt so bad after you have played since August, I remember when we played in a bowl game the coaches take this time like another spring practice, you get your young players some reps and let the veterans have some time off they wont get fat but they will be ready to play for all the marbles come 1/8/07 OSU is just to good for this team at this time IMHO. OSU 41 Fla 17
