gonna be a close call my man. Im not going to lie, from my stand point (LSU Student) I would rather see Michigan go. Because that puts us in the Rose Bowl against USC. The rivalry that never happened. Should be an interesting 20 hours until the bowl selections start.

They are better imo

Michigan already lost to OSU

Yeah...I know. UF played a harder schedule. It going to boil down to the AP and coaches and harris polls. The computers are going to pick FL. But the Talking heads, all want to see a re-match between mich. and OSU.

You can't argue with Florida.

1)#1 - Strength of schedule.*(Opponents having the highest win percentage.)

2)Only loss - Auburn in a very close game.

3)Won the SEC - arguably the hardest conference in the nation.

4)Key wins over Georgia, LSU, Tennessee, and Florida State.

5)Won all 5 games against teams with Top 25 Defenses.

6)Doesn't matter in BCS computers, but has not had the chance that Michigan has had to play Ohio State; this matters to the voters.

Michigan also has a nice resume:

1)#3 in terms of Strength of Schedule.

2)Key wins over Wisconsin and Notre Dame.

3)Only loss was by 3 to the best team in the country - Ohio State.

I think the only thing seperating these two teams is that Florida has had more impressive wins and has not had the chance to play the Buckeyes.

Florida plays in the National Championship to me, what do you think?

I wish I could say I was a Gator fan, but I'm unfortunately (this year) a Seminole fan, and most people know how Florida State's season has gone //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Like I said...the computers are going to pick Florida...The Polls (human factor) are going to screw it for Florida.

actually computer projections have michigan slightly ahead of florida, so it'll be decided by polls and you'll have a lot of people vote against a rematch instead of who should be number 2. both teams have beaten 2 top 10 teams, but michigan's 1 loss is better then florida's 1 loss

But you can't argue with Florida's Strength of Schedule or key SEC wins.

michigan's wasn't a picnic, they've both beaten the same amount of top 10 teams, michigan's out of conference schedule was stronger, plus michigan's defeat was much better then florida's, plus florida got the oppurtunity to play an aditional game, which is unfair to michigan

both teams have 1 common opponent and michigan beat vanderbelt by 20, florida beat them by 6. florida had some shaky games against unranked teams like south carolina, georgia, and florida state

What's sad is that Jizm-Man is right...I don't care for OSU, but he's right...
