National Championship Game Poll
 

I want to know your guys opinion on the BCS National Championship its very controversial right now.

Personally I want to see the Gators play Ohio. No offense to Michigan but you had your chance and failed. Let the Gators step up and show you how its done.

I voted Florida but I think it will be a huge Ohio State win.

Also I think it's a damn disgrace that there is no playoff system in Div. I College Football.All the poll's are BS!

And to wait a month for 1 game to decide it all is complete BS!

I think it will be the closest game that we've seen in a long time. Gators should have the edge though they have played every type of offense and defence they could possibly play against. I think the Gators have a blood lust and will be unrelentless. And I think Ohio is taking they're practices and reviewing lightly of the National Championship and I dont think they will be up to the challenge.

You seem like a big fan like I am. Check out espn.com and vote on the poll on there for who should play and check out the map everyone in the SEC pretty much voted gators and everyone close to Michigan voted Michigan. I DO NOT SEE THE REASON IN LETTING THEM PLAY AGAIN. Since when in the BCS they let 2 teams play each other more that once!?!

i think there should be a rematch arkansas handed flordia that title with that muffed punt and their should be a playoff but even if it is a rematch michigan and ohio state are the 2 best in the country they should play again

Nobody wants to see a rematch of the 2 the end result will be the same. THey know each others plays, strongs suits, weak suits. Granted Michigan may be a good team but they blew they're their shot. Rematches are just unheard of at the college level.

LOL I have :)

No way should Michigan play in the Championship,yes they played a close game but they still finished in 2nd place in thier Conf. I HATE Florida but at least they won thier Conf.(Damn muffed punt :nunu: )

On another note....................



UCLA made my day :)

Even with the muffed punt they would have won. In football the errors other teams make do not give them the right to make excuses and ask for a rematch.

And UCLA....awesome just awesome. Watched the rest of it in the middle of the SEC halftime.:Woot:

I am a michigan fan but with floridas win and how hard there schedule was, they deserve to be in it. I think florida is better than everyone thinks they are. Oh and ohio state is way overated. The only legit games they had was the michigan game and when they played texas and that was mCcoys first game

Heres some fuel for the fire....

The Gators beat nine bowl teams. Michigan beat six. Florida played just two teams with losing records, and the Wolverines played five. UF was 4-1 against ranked teams, Michigan 1-1.:eek:

Ohio State, overrrated? Your only saying that because you're from Ohio, a michigan fan, and you're sick of everyone in Ohio rooting for OSU.

OSU overrrated my ass. They were preseason #1, and they held that ranking the entire season, that's damn tough to do. AND they stayed undefeated. They have the soon to be heisman trophy winner, two outstanding tailbacks, and one hella of a YOUNG defense that NOBODY thought they was gonna be any good. Their defense may not be the #1 defense, but wayyy better than proposed. They've only let I think 10? points off turnovers ALL SEASON! and that was all in the Mich. game. But yet, they've scored over 110 points off of turnovers all season, that's an INCREDIBLE stat.

With that said, it would be absolutely stupid if OSU played Mich. again. I think they should play Florida, and it might be a good game. Yea, Florida had the tougher schedule, but OSU.. well they are the best team in the land, and they will come out on top. I don't even think it'll be that close.

But who has Ohio State really beat besides Michigan?Don't,oh please don't say Texas,they lost 3 games this year.

Untill there is some kind of a playoff system it will alway's be decided on opinion's.

It would be Texas again if Vince Young had stayed one more year.That's my opinion :)

I said OSU hasn't really beat anyone, at least I meant too. And you can't really rule out Texas... at the time, texas was #2 and this was their first lost. So it was a huge game at the time. OSU did beat two #2 teams all season, not just ranked teams, but TWO #2 teams. That has to count for something.

And I totally agree there should be a playoff system.

I think the OSU vs Michigan game was WAY to close to assume the same outcome personally, and I think Florida would get walked all over after seeing how they played last night. Honestly thought Ark was going to come back for a while. JMHO

Thats how Florida plays they arent in it for large spreads.A win is a win in their book. And you'd be surprised what a championship game can do to a team once they get all rowdy. Plus the SEC is a much harder division than the Big 10. Florida knocked down 9 bowl teams. 9!!!

Hot Damn!!! It's starting to look good

agree completely^^^^^^

it was close 42-39 AT OHIO STATE with ohio state having 2 long runs that michigans #1 rush defense prob would not let up again

i feel michigan would win the rematch at a neutral site and a rematch would realy make some ppl consider changing the bcs because this system is terrible.... but all the voters punished michigan for not playing the final week

MICHIGANS OUT. GATORS IN!!!!!!!! THe BCS has spoken

It was flipping close by .01...whew!

Now let all the crying begin!!

No crying for me. Everything turned out the way it should have to begin with.

:) I'm just messing with people :salook:

I'd really like to know how Notre Dame got into a BCS bowl.They lost to every good team they played and LSU is going to kill them.

Blake! :poke:

As long as the pollsters decided on Florida based on merit I am satisfied. This whole rematch thing is BS. If the two top teams played once, so what. For a championship, you want the two best teams to play. I think it is rediculous to have so many consolation games and have a panel of people decide the fate of 2 teams, giving them the chance to win the championship. How is that good for the game? Isn't winning the championship a goal that teams set for themselves? I mean, that goal could be flushed down the toilet after week 1 for some teams, especially if 2 teams go undefeated. With a 12 game season, some of those teams may not have the opportunity to play 1 of those top 2 to make them not undefeated. That is one reason why I hate college football. The other being that Duke hasn't been good in quite some time so of course I am going to be a little bitter. That's what basketball is season is for..

I think the BCS got it right by putting Florida and not michigan in since my Trojans took a crap on themselvs....just a horrible performance.

Anyway, there probably won't be a playoff system.

1. A four team playoff----that can work when there are 4 worthy teams, but if not it becomes a joke. Who would be your 4th team this year....Louisville? LSU? Wisconsin?

2. Or maybe an 8 team playoff?? You could invite the 6 conference champions, but what would happen in the case of Boise State or some othe school that is not in the large conferences, but worthy.

3. Also, there could be a + 1 system where the top two winners from the bowls play for the NC game. That could possibly make the UCLA win pointless because if USC beat michigan they'd be right back in the national championship game rather than the bruins spoling it.

I'm not saying there shouldn't be something, but no system will be perfect I don't think.

Why should a team that their only loss was to the # 1 team in the nation not be in the National championship? Florida lost to Auburn, where are they? not #1. and dont give me this crap about finishing second in their conference should be a reason not to be in the game, hmm lets see the steelers last year didn't win their division lokk what what happened.

Michigan is better that Florida.... Bottom line

whwy wouldnt people want to see a rematch of the biggest rivalry in sports? makes no sense

Not sure it's the biggest rivalry in sports, but it's one of them....Also I'm not quite sure how you say michigan is better than florida hands down...we'll never know cause they won't play this year. Florida plays the toughest schedule in the nation and michigan not playing the last two weeks kinda doesn't help either....yeah, that's not their fault, but I think people forgot about them a little bit. Also, honestly don't think people wanted to see the match up again even though it was a great game. I think if michigan and ohio st. played again and michigan won it would cause some serious BCS issues because they split games.
Just my two cents, but I don't think anyone can honestly say michigan is hands down better than florida.

michigan got robbed twice they lost 2 osu by 3 on the road......and didnt drop they were still #2

then they dont play and usc beats ND but not as bad as michgan beat them and michigan gets bumped to #3 for no reason

then usc loses...michigan should move up 2 #2 but once again they get jumped without losing.....thats just not right

michigan was number 2 for almost 2 months and did nothing to lose that spot.....ppl voted for no rematch which would of been a classic game MICHIGAN OSU is the biggest rivalry in sports it comes first almost everytime they do that show on espn ranking the rivalries, sometimes is loses out to boston new york

Biggest rivalry my butt. And for michigan being a better team they played a bunch of pussies. Lets look at the stats since you think they are better

The Gators beat nine bowl teams. Michigan beat six. Florida played just two of those teams with losing records, and the Wolverines played five with losing records. UF was 4-1 against ranked teams, Michigan 1-1

And you shouldn't compare the NFL to the BCS theres a reason there isnt a playoff system they dont want to be like them. ANd BCS officials will say the same thing.

Michigan fans can whine and complain alll they want but it's not going to change anything the fans and coaches have spoken and they want to see a Florida and Ohio game. Michigan doesnt have to like it but they have to accept that fact.

They got jumped because they ran out of games. Longer seasons such as Florida's allow things like this to happen you can thanks your BCS scheduling. IF Michigan had won against Ohio they wouldn't be in this situation now would they.

i can tell ur a florida fan cause im speakin for any team that it is not right that u can be jumped for not playing......not just michigan, if they were number #2 still after there loss and there season ended florida should not be able 2 jump them or usc........

and 2nd of all florida did have the hardest schedule but u didnt lost 2 #1 u lost to #9 and u played a AA team....michigan had the #3 schedule in the country so u dont have much leverage there



NOT TO MENTION Florida had lost that game until Arkansas's player tried 2 field a punt running backwards into the endzone over his shoulder

I would be willing to bet that if Michigan never played OSU but still had that one loss to a #1 team, etc. etc., Mich would be playing OSU in the NC game.

I still think Florida should be in the NC game and not Mich.

And OSU and Mich. IS the biggest COLLEGE FOOTBALL rivalry. There is no greater in NCAA football.

i agree with u but the fact that in my opinion the #1 and #2 teams in the country are osu michigan it should b a rematch.....who cares if its a rematch or the same conference the championship is supposed 2 be the 2 best teams not 1 and 3 because 1 and 2 have already played

osu is going to run all over florida. florida has no chance. huge victory for osu. everyone who says mich HAD their chance to beat osu, its not about beating osu. thats what nov 18. was about a rivalry, thats it. this is much bigger. its the championship. michigan vs. osu would be way more entertaining then watching florida lose like expected. bcs is bullshit

i think a perfect system would be a system that changes from year 2 year to fit the cirsumstances....like this year michigan and florida play for chance at title...the next year if theres 4 teams worthy have them all face off....change it year to year to fit the circumstances.....most years u can narrow it down to at least 4 contenders so this would most likely work

I think your exactly right....I just think if they would have played again it and michigan won they would have had a crap storm and would have named them co-champions because they split. I'm a huge USC fan so I have no interest in florida or michigan, but I think the BCS got it right. Plus I'd like USC to beat up on Michigan again like we did a few years ago....it won't happen like that this year, but a guy can wish right! ha ha

I think its funny how the Michigan fans are reacting now. THE STATS WERE DEAD EVEN in the BCS. The only thing that pushed it over was the human portion.

Florida isn't going to be a push over in fact I think they are going to turn some heads. Florida's defense is the fastest in the nation.

I dont even have to argue why Florida should be #2. Cause guess what they ARE! Accept it.

Lets start off by saying I dont care about Michigan, Florida, USC, OSU, etc. I am not attached to any of the teams. You however are a Florida fan, so of course your opinion is biased towards your team.

In college football there is no relevant rivarly that is bigger than UM vs OSU that gets attention throughout the entire country. There are alot of good rivalries but most are just regionally important.

OSU vs UM is up there with Duke vs NC, Yanks vs Sox, etc.

The whole strength of schedule is what Florida hangs their hat on, Florida does in fact have the # 1 schedule, but Michigan was #3. Not alot of difference there is there. As for your ranking deal, thats not even true. Michigan beat two teams currently in the BCS top 15 same as Florida.

Michigan beat # 6 Wisconsin by 14 and # 11 Notre Dame by 26 points. They lost to the #1 team by 3 on the road.

Florida beat # 4 LSU by 13 and #12 Arkansas by 10 points. Florida lost to #9 Auburn by 10 also on the road.

In both teams only loses, UM got beat by the #1 team by 3 and Florida lost by 10 to the #9 team. So not only was Michigan more dominant in its major wins the loss it had was to a MUCH better team and by a touchdown less.


The fact of the matter is that half of the coaches and harris poll guys switched their vote this week, and the major reason given is because they didnt want a rematch, if USC had beated UCLA there is no way Florida would have jumped Michigan and pushed them back to #4. The only reason Florida got the vote is because the voters where anti-rematch, no more no less.

BURN!!!!!!!!
