Michigan/Ohio State Rematch, Yay or Nay?

Can't say I'm surprised with that lack of class.
 
Nay. If there was going to be a rematch, we even bother playing the game the first time?
 
I think the best two teams are OSU-UM... they are IMO, by themselves with USC, UF, ND, Arkansas all about an equal #3. I hope UF takes the SEC and whips the britches off whoever they play, but I really think OSU-UM is THE ticket.

Anyone else think Meeeeshigan would have won at a neutral site?

I think if they play again, it could go absolutely either way on a neutral site.

As for determining whether they're better than the competition, the test I apply is basically "Would Michigan beat..." -- well, they beat ND, so theoretically if ND can beat USC, then Michigan get the advantage there -- and USC beat Arkansas. I know it's a flawed food chain, but the BCS is producing flawed food.
 
Nay.

My reasoning is I've already seen the game, and while close I'd rather see another team have a crack at OSU. Don't know who I would choose to go up against them. I think Notre Dame would get blown out. Florida would probably get beaten soundly. Arkansas could be interesting, and so could USC. Dunno though.

Since Michigan and OSU are done for the reg season and both are still 1 and 2 in the BCS rankings, what are the chances that any other team like USC, Florida, Arkansas, Notre Dame takes there place?

USC beats #5 ranked ND they will jump over. Michigan only win against ranked team is ND. So if USC also beat ND they would have beaten 5 ranked teams compared to Michigan 1.

..Yet USC lost to Oregon St., while Michigan's only loss came by 3 points to the best team in the nation.

There are 1 million and fifty arguments as to why so-and-so should be in the Nat'l championship. TO be honest, I'm not really worried anymore. I'm looking foward more to the Fiesta Bowl, Rose Bowl, Sugar Bowl so whoever they stack up against Overrated State University (:wink: :chuckle: ), I don't really mind.

USC beat Arkansas -- however they were without McFadden, and I'd like to see them try and blow them out again. I don't see how USC took such a jump just a week after losing to Oregon St. Didn't they jump from like 7th to 3rd?

Here's how I see it:

UM/OSU - Would be a great rematch. We know that both teams are very very good and IMO yes, they are the two best teams in the nation. However, we just saw it, and it was so hyped up now and any rematch would make the Nat'l championship kinda anti-climactic.

However, if my other option is OSU vs USC, I'll pass. I'm tired of watching USC in the Nat'l championship. Maybe it was okay when it was Leinart, Bush, White, etc etc etc...but now, a team that gets beat down by Oregon State?

I would like to see Florida there, and Arkansas have a great chance if they can beat Florida in the SEC Championship and ND beats USC.

The only way I see ND making it is if they beat USC, FSU beats UF, and then UF beats Arkansas in the SEC Championship.

I think I'll actually enjoy the other Bowls better than the Nat'l cham. game this year.

Why does everyone keep saying Mcfadden didnt play against USC? He play and had the most carries for Arkansas.

I dont think a rematch is fair to OSU. If UM beats OSU in Glendale, they both finish with the same record, both beat each other, why is UM the champion? OSU shouldnt have to beat them again imo and it's unfair for them to have to do so. They have to beat UM twice for a title but UM only has to win once, doesnt seem fair. USC or UF should play for the title.
