But Shanoff you are an idiot. Michigan's only quality win was not Notre Dame. In fact it wasnt even their best win. Their best win was Wisconsin, who deserve to be in the BCS way ahead of Noter Dame or USC, or Wake Forest for that matter.

Id take our defense over anyone else in the country and about a third of the nfl. Auburn game they didnt score a td on our defense but got their tds on a pick 6 and a botched punt I believe. If you take away the 14 points last night leak basically gave them it is a huge blowout. Yeah leak sucks and like my dad said Im glad he is leaving after one more game. Every game of his career it seemed like he would throw the game away then do somthing spectacular to make us love him again. <BR/><BR/>IT is a shame we lost ray mac but even without him and thomas we held ark to what like 120 yds rushing? If we get our rightful spot at OSU it will be a lot closer than you guys think. I see that championship game going something like this back and forth keeping it close in the third quarter osu goes up like 14 points followed by chris leak throwing 50 yd bombs in quick succession to bubba caldwell, dallas baker touchdown maker, and percy harvin. troy smith makes up the touchdown to tie it with a minute left. leak marches us down the field and chris hetland that asshole kicks a fifty yarder into the wind that floats around and actually is good because that dude is due.The heroin sheikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16860402732123149415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-1165157318490338442006-12-03T09:48:00.000-05:002006-12-03T09:48:00.000-05:00Uh, wasn't McFadden hurt?It's easy to defend the r...Uh, wasn't McFadden hurt?<BR/><BR/>It's easy to defend the run when a team has no passing game, too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-1165157234293418192006-12-03T09:47:00.000-05:002006-12-03T09:47:00.000-05:00Michigan's Defense is NOT Florida's defense.

Even though we let them close the gap we both knew in our hearts that there was no way in hell we were losing. I called it halfway through the season that it was shaping up to be just like 96 so to all you haters a big orange and blue FUCK YOU. <BR/><BR/>My friends taped the game and showed me the bit where vern lundquist i think was comparing michigan and florida's respective schedules. I have to say that there is no comparison. Florida destroys them in degree of difficulty. I only wish it was the orange or sugar bowl hosting the championship game because there is no way im getting to go. <BR/><BR/>From what I saw of the rutgers game impressed me even if they lost. I bet that kicker is kicking himself now. I don't know who they are returning next year but if that team is pretty much intact I bet they are a top 15 team easy.

UM-OSU II is easy to defend from a hype standpoint. The first game is being billed as an instant classic that would have coume out even on a neutral field. The rematch would do massive ratings and ultimately satisfy a lot of people. <BR/><BR/>Whereas I think the voters are still wary of Florida, still fear we'd lay an egg against OSU.<BR/><BR/>But either way it goes down it'll be a good game. OSU isn't as unbeatable as people seem to think (shades of USC last year, Oklahoma in 04 aand 03, and Miami in 02) and either Florida or Michigan would make a great matchup. Only, you can't convince me that Michigan deserves it more.

That's how scores work.</I><BR/><BR/>OK, this is fun. Yeah, OK, those were the final scores. but it's not the numbers, it's the way those scores get spun. Auburn-UF was not the greatest game ever, but it was every bit as competitive as the Michigan-OSU game, which is my only point. So when ESPN anchors get on TV and wax poetic about Michigan-OSU being the greatest game theyve seen in a long time, it just gets me a little mad. Especially since the Rutgers-Louisville game was far superior in every possible way.<BR/><BR/>And why aren't Michigan's stats padded with a 62-point win? What were they doing against Ball State? And as for the rest of the schedule, I think the higher level of competition UF played week in and week out makes up for any statistical discrepencies. <BR/><BR/>And since when is it whining to argue your point?TJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14923521765537437204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-1165153958490264942006-12-03T08:52:00.000-05:002006-12-03T08:52:00.000-05:00BTW, I didn't stay up for O(R)SU v Hawaii because ...BTW, I didn't stay up for O(R)SU v Hawaii because the 3-OT battle in the hills drained me.
