Did Michigan get shafted by Tressel's abstaining from the vote?

And the old, out-spoken coot never saw Florida play a single game all year.

 

Meyer wasn't the head coach of the Florida team, and as I and other have said, it's apples and oranges to compare 96 to 06.

Also, you must realize that had Arizona State won the Rose Bowl, they likely would have had at least a share of the title.

 

Hello! McFly!

 

OK, hypothetical.
If Michigan beats Ohio State, and everything else stays the same, is Florida still in that game? I think, in that case, a rematch would have been more likely. Which, if I'm right, means that almost everything said by any voter as regards Florida is just, well wrong.

 

Go a step further.
Michigan loses to Wisconsin, but wins at Ohio State.
Now, you have Undefeated Wisconsin, one-loss Michigan team whose only loss is undefeated Wisconsin, one-loss and No. 1 all season Ohio State and Florida.

Who meets in the BCS game and why?
Does 12-0 Wisconsin play 11-1 OSU, since they didn't meet in the regular season?
Does 12-0 Wisconsin play 11-1 Michigan, which beat OSU, in a rematch?
Does 12-0 Wisconsin play 11-1 Florida because the SEC whines?
Does 12-0 Wisconsin play 10-2 USC in the Rose Bowl because voters can't look past Wisconsin's soft schedule?

 

Toally irrelevant because none of this happened.

OK, we get the idea.
BCS = BAD!

Stop trying to make it out as worse than it is with nonsensical hypotheticals.

Bottom line: Ohio State will win (no matter who they would have played) finish 13-0, and the team that has been No. 1 all year will finish No.1.
What's the big deal?

 

Geez, I was just askin....

 

And if the Gators happen to win, he would have been right all along.

 

My friends know I look a lot more like Biff than McFly.

 

Which Biff would that be?




Now make like a tree and blow.

 

In my younger days, I looked like teen-age Biff (upper left). Now I look like the lounge lizard Biff (lower left) from the alternate dimension, still waiting for my old self to come back with that damned sports almanac!

 

It's make like a tree and get out of here.
