You found me out Dave! Im really a closet Michigan fan and I thought I would start another pointless debate about who is #2 and who is #3. Although my degrees say Penn State, I love Michigan. Why? Because even though the NC game is already set in stone, it still makes an impact if we beat it to the death because somewhere, someone in the BCS might read a thread on a miami dolphins internet message board and decide to change the matchup.

Im not doing a runaround, the problem is with all the Florida homers on here, I need to take to the defense of Michigan. Thats how it is in any debate, when you are trying to have an objective conversation and everyone takes one side, you naturally need to defend the other side to make your point.
It also seems that no matter what, you guys need to defend Florida for being #2. Why is that? Is it because a flaw in the system might have given Florida an edge over Michigan for some reason whereas the computers had them ranked even? Is it because there was no clear cut #2 team in the nation and voters got to decide the matchup they wanted?
On one of the other boards that I post at (and discussion at work), this is actually a good objective thread and a few posters have thrown some history about the technical side of the BCS which I was unaware about and learned a few things. That obviously isnt happening here with everyone. Some people have posted great comments and thoughts in this thread, others have taken it upon themselves to defend Florida no matter what and turn this thread into another pointless debate about who deserves to be #2.
Every single year there is always discussion about the current BCS system and what needs to be tweaked. Look how it has evolved. I apologize for trying to have that discussion based on how the BCS played out this year here. Lets just debate who is the better team, ok. You go first.......
