i thought mich would win. didn't really have a rooting interest. don't care either way about either team, but i'm surprised they played so poorly.
i think it's the coaches fault tho. seems every time a coach starts grousing about his place in the rankings, he gets knocked down a few more. case in point would be auburn. about the time tuberville starting biatching about not getting respect, ark handed him his coat and hat. he didn't have to worry anymore about playing for the title!!

Maybe someday we will have a college championship that isnt played 50 days after one of the teams last games. Thats like having horses prep for the Derby all winter and spring then run the Derby 5-6 months later.

Excuse # 1 tonight for Big Ten Fans- The layoff killed us.
Excuse # 2- The refs were against us.
Excuse # 3- The game wasnt played in Columbus, Ohio.

Do winners normally make excuses? No Ohio State fan will need one.

And come on man, throw me a bone about the 'playing in Ann Arbor' thing -- it's like you didn't read anything else I wrote in the entire thread and like I hung my hat on that ONE thing as the reason they lost. So you don't agree, but you've been digging me ever since.

Sorry Dookie. You seem like a nice kid. No more dogging.
I hope the Gators crush them tonight.

I'm sure we'll have a lively discussion about it tomorrow.

I'll be looking for any excuse starting at the coin toss just in case that 0.8% likelihood of an OSU loss actually happens

Though the only good to come out of it would be Jamie getting to indignantly drunk dial me at the final whistle and rub it in my face, where the rest of you will have to wait til morning.

I am a huge Gator fan in college hoops. Not such a big fan of collge football in general but I will root for them but certainly not stay up any later than normal for this. It will be neat to see the same school hold titles in basketball and football. Go Gators

if osu wins, it'll be their first bowl win vs and SEC team. of course past performance doesn't mean much.

i also think it's too big of a break between last game played and this one. but t.v. and ratings rule.

I would just like to see a competitive game! Would like Florida to upset them, but OSU is still the pick....Leak has been pretty streaky...and if OSU gets a 14pt lead it's over!

Ohio state is Ghostzapper

No, Ohio State play more than 4 games a year. They are probably more like Sir Tyler T.

Rutgers would have put up a much better effort than this OSU team. They are laying down.
