Thanks, I don't sports bet (except horse racing and the 6-1 I received on NYY winning the world Series in 1998), but if Michigan is anything 2.5 favorite or less, that could be a good bet.

IrishofNDman,

At least the SEC teams don't play Moe, Larry, or Curly. Sorry I mean Army, Navy, and Air Force in the same year. I don't even think they play them period. If your team of wannabe's was in the SEC im sure Weiss would be getting the pink slip after three years. Isn't it true that the boosters don't except 7-4 or 8-3 records each year. That would be a good year for them. Before you put a conference down make sure your teams has the balls to play in a conference. Im not talking about Conference USA, MAC, Mountain or the Big Least. I still would like to know what your smoking or snorting. The reason im asking is that it must be some pretty cheap garbage that is messing up your brain cells.

We'll see how good the SEC is once they stop beating the hell out of each other. The only team im moderately impressed with is LSU. Besides that they have been mediocre. I'll take the top 3 teams in the big ten over the sec any day. Second, you people whining for wisconsin, they can't go to a bcs bowl. Only two teams from each conference can go. So regardless of how good they are, they get bumped out.

Skippy,
I didn't remember the Bullshot Championship Series having that rule. I guess thats why an under achieving over hyped Notre Dame with their Heisman wannabe gets in then. Wisconsin pretty much has nothing to play for this year. Reminds of a few years ago when it was either Kansas or Kansas State had a one loss year and they got stuck with the Holiday Bowl. They lost that game. Same scenario with Wisconsin. I don't remember the year and I think it was before the BCS was formed. Do you remember the year?

That game was Kansas St vs. Purdue. They say Kansas St didn't show up to the game and let Purdue win

Nascar,
you talk about ND playing Navy, Army, and AirForce like all the big teams in college football don't play these cupcake teams.

Let us take a look at who Florida, and SEC team plays:
Central Florida
Kentucky
West Carolina????? I mean, West Carolina?????? You got to be kidding me!!! Navy, Army, and Air Force would kill West Carolina. Navy would beat all three of the teams I just named, and about 3 other teams on Floridas schedule!

ALL and I mean ALL teams play a few easy games, ND has played Army for a long long time now, it is a tradition.

Oh c'mon man! I want them to still play NAVY each year. That streak has got to come to an end. Navy had there chances in the past and BLEW IT! They always seem to go to a bowl every year still it seems like.
