They'll argue against you and never admit they know Michigan would have beat OSU on a neutral field. You've made a winning case in this thread. You will be proved correct when the game is played and the Gators lose big. As for your bet offer, I've only found one man on this board willing to back up they're mouth with a fair bet, so don'thold your breath! </div> Now I don't mind the defense of Michigan but saying Michigan will beat them on a neutral field is pushing it. You know this from the time you lost to Ohio State this year???? The game also was pretty much in Ohio State's control and played at Ohio States tempo all game long. From the 1st meeting they're was no doubt that Ohio State was the better team and they won the game. On a neutral field Ohio State would be the favorite and rightfully so. Michigan was supposed to bring in this force of a defense to slow down Troy Smith and he lit you guys up. Smith is 3-0 against Michigan and has only lost 1 big game in his career and that was to Vince Young and Texas. The facts just don't backup everyone thinking Michigan would beat Ohio State on a neutral field. The better team won the 1st time.
Porky did you watch the first drive of the game? OSU's defense didn't even look like it was on the field... To say that anyone knew OSU was going to win that game from the get go isn't accurate... They did play at OSU's pace during the first half and I have a beef with the coaches for that... After the half and Michigan made it's adjustments it was a different story... Both teams were very equal and they battled all day... Most people (including vegas) count being at home as 3 points when predicting games... Home field advantage is big in Rivalry games like that... A neutral field would make a positive difference for us...

Michigan could go play and lose by a bigger margin.. or win the game.. none is saying that Michigan.. is anyless of a football team...your just getting really butt hurt over something u have no contol of.. Noone and i mean NOONE wants to see Michigan vs OSU In another Game.. the BCS is all about revenue.. People get fucked By the BSC all the time i know i have seen it happen to my team.. We finally got a bid and i am happy.. And you should be to man.. it may not be the NC but it is a good Bowl Game.. Michigan can get a BCS game yearly.. But i guess things in michigan are run differently then here in the smaller city's.. Anything less then a NC apperance apparently is failure to michigan fans.. why people like me who are BSU fans Are happy to get to play in a BCS bowl game.. Even if we do get creamed by oklahoma.. Its good to see us go play in one.. so the fiesta bowl will work for me.. Just be happy man that your Team gets the oppurtunity to play In the BCS year after year

That is an overstatement and it disregards the best team in college football. Playing better Defense would be a start. The fact is you lost and they won. You guys scored right away but Ohio State took control and really controlled the game the whole way up until the final few drives. That's why they won and you didn't. You had your chance to prove you were the better team than Ohio State and lost. With that said I can understand your frustration with the BCS. I personally want to see UF vs. Ohio State because it is SEC vs. Big Ten and a game I haven't seen. If I had a vote though I believe UM is the #2 rated team in college football over the course of the year. I actually think LSU is hottest team in the Nation right now behind Ohio State but they have 2 loses and I think in a playoff system a team like LSU could really make a run. Fact is though Ohio State is #1 and they deserve it. If USC beats Michigan then you guys have nothing to complain about IMO.
