Fighting Irish and the BCS?

[EUR_Zaitsev]

What match up would you most like to see for NCAA football Championship. I am thinking Fighting Irish vs. Miami would be a dandy, You see Mich get whipped in the big house?

Ohio State / Miami would be good.  Ohio State beating Notre Dame like a red headed step-child would be better.

I think it will probably be OU vs. Miami/Virginia Tech

As much as I hope CU will beat OU next week or in the Big 12 championship game (now that Iowa State sucks I don't really see who can stop CU from winning the North) I don't really see it happening.

Ohio State lost Clarett...not a good sign for them.

You all overlook Virginia Tech, the team I have placed as beating Miami and knocking htme out of the CHampionship picture. As seen in the Florida State game, a good running back can molest the Miami defense, and VT has two - Lee Suggs and Kevin Jones. They average 223 yards a game and that might spell doom for the 'canes.

I'm not counting VT out of it.  But I'd rather see OSU beat the other two teams, since I'm using my imagination.  I hate Notre Dame (they win more games on bad calls then any other team in Football).  I don't care for Miami.  Don't hate them, but I'm not a fan (I like FSU better in the south).  VT, I have no feelings over, except that they beat up WMU this year.  So they can burn in hell for that one (kidding).

Clarett was out for just the game I heard.  He'll be back (unless there's news that I didn't hear).  As long as he's back before the UofM game.

I see fiesta bowl as being:
Notre Dame v. Oklahoma

Notre Dame has smooth sailing from here on out, all the computers rank them as #1 (unlikely to change) and they will move up in the coaches/AP polls this week and later when some more of the other undefeated teams lose (they will)

As for Oklahoma, I see them as the national champion? they really just own all around. Their defense is number one in my mind, they have a huge d-line and quick secondary and they run a menagerie of creative blitzes from multiple angles. Their offense is well balanced and they can score on the ground or in the air behind a talented 0-line? (not that they need to score with that defense).

Obviously either Miami or VTech is going to be knocked out of this picture (and whichever one survives I don't believe will make the final cut, it will probably be the third seed), hopefully Ohio State loses one (or it could be complicated) but even if they don't, I don't think they will have the computer rankings they need to bust into the top two teams. I see them as a 3 or probably a4 seed. Georgia? quite frankly, I don't see them as a team of equal caliber to any of the other undefeated teams.

how notre dame makes the top of the bcs with such a shitty offence just goes to show how fucked up the bcs is.  it should just be called the bs.

ohio state has one problem.  michigan.  michigan will get up for that game, and beat them, just to keep them from being ranked no 1.  the michigan ohio state rivalry is the biggest there is in college football.  it's why they save that for the last game every year.  the winner of the big 10 is always determined by that game, ok, only 95% of the time.  not becuse the winner of that game is the winner, but because one of those two teams is always in the running, if not both.

i can't cheer against my old team, but it would be nice to see a big 10 national title.

and notre dame can suck it.  they lost that game against michigan, the refs just gave it to them.  anyone that says different didn't watch that mysterous touchdown called sans ball.  what bullshit.
