TribeFan4Eva Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 take this for what its worth, but I am serious. My girlfriend works in the UF athletic department. They were notified at 530pm that Florida is #2 in the BCS and will in fact be in the BCS Title Game. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluenotebacker Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 I hope this isn't true. Florida's coach is a scumbag and after saying the things he said about Michigan and outright begging for a bowl game bid I would think the bowls would be embarassed to have Florida there.

Florida's coach is a scumbag and after saying the things he said about Michigan and outright begging for a bowl game bid I would think the bowls would be embarassed to have Florida there. So if you're the coach of a team that could very well be on the verge of getting screwed out of a title shot, you wouldn't campaign for votes? Bullshit. And he never said anything negative about Michigan. He said they didn't win their conference...true, isn't it? He said he would like to see "other teams" (basically Michigan and USC) go through the SEC and the schedule Florida had and see how they faired. Fair statement. The only negative thing Meyer has said is that the BCS is a piece of ****. And you can't tell me you disagree with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kinghernandez Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 The only team that gets fuc kin scrwed is Michgan. They got screwed by USC first, now Florida. Just because the BCS is being a bit ch and not wanting a reamtch. Fu ck it, college football is the worst governed program in all of sports. Florida didn't make it on it's credentials, they made it on Michigan's bad luck. If Michigan lost to anyone else but the team garunteed a spot in the title game, they would be in.

Timp Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 I could see them skippin ahead of U of M if they absolutely demolished Arkansas, but they didn't. This doesn't make sense to me at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbully Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 UM and UF both had 1 loss. Florida had one extra game w/SEC championship game and won their conference in doing so - UM did not win their conference. UF deserves to be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florida had one extra game w/SEC championship game and won their conference in doing so - UM did not win their conference. UF deserves to be there. Not reason enough. Florida didn't have to play the #1 team to win their conference. This had nothing to do with who's the better team or who deserved it. It had to do with a popular vote, just like before the BCS, combined with which matchups overall would draw better ratings. Now you get OSU-Florida and Michigan-USC. Best of both worlds for TV, although the players don't gain anything from it. Nothing new in the Michigan universe. Same thing happened in 1973 and 1997. Even when they win it, they don't win it.

Even when they win it, they don't win it. UF did play the #1 team in the Western division of the SEC to win the overall conference championship. They also were 9-1 against bowl eligible teams that included Auburn, Georgia, Tennesse and LSU. Winning the SEC is no small task! UM played ND (who is should not in a BCS bowl), Wisconsin and Ohio State. Absolutely NO doubt in my mind UF should be there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you comparing Michigan playing the number one team in the COUNTRY with Florida playing the #1 team in the western division of the SEC? My point is, if Florida had gone up to Ohio State to play, they'd have two losses. By the way, Notre Dame IS in a BCS bowl. Florida is in, so you don't need to try to convince anyone anymore. And good luck against those Buckeyes, you'll need it, bro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're always the little, media darling that hangs around in the polls no matter what their record is or the quality of competition they play. I'm not a UF fan btw - just giving my opinions.

kgbaseball Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 The talk about teams beating bowl eligible teams is garbage. Awful teams can make a bowl; all they have to do is win 6 games, which isn't that hard. There's far too many bowls, and plenty of teams have made them in the past with even a losing record. I'd like to throw out the "Team A beat X many bowl eligible teams this year" argument. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
el_jefe061 Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 I really get the feeling that anyone besides Michigan would get destroyed by Ohio State. I think I'm one of the few people (And I'm dead serious) who thought UCLA had a chance against USC, just by judging how they've played against USC the last couple of years. Florida is good, but they're no Michigan. Michigan went into Ohio State and nearly beat them (I think they would have if it weren't for that Roughing the Passer late hit call). Florida has looked lackluster in a ton of games (No matter how good the SEC is) and that game against South Carolina at HOME was too close for them to be considered for the National Championship game. Yes, I know Michigan nearly lost to Ball State (Or was it someone else), but that was a tune-up phone-in "Don't really care" game against a lesser school. South Carolina coming into the Swamp should be an important game considering: Spurrier is back It's a conference game There's no excuse for barely beating your former coach in a conference game.

evil1182 Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Fla is more of a running team, they ain't going to come back if their trailing late in the game. They have NO shot at all against OSU, I bet the point spread will be +14. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
