Now, anyone who's been on here for awhile knows that I feel like the SEC tends to be very overrated. That, and I really don't like Urban Myer much at all. He's the Brian Billick of college football, an offensive genius whose offenses are constantly being bailed out by the defense and special teams. However the outcome today that Florida should play Ohio State is really the only decision that could have been made. And here's why
- The Big 10, outside of the top 3 (maybe even only 2) teams sucked much ass this season. The SEC wasn't as good as it normally is, but it was still worlds better than the Big 10. The only good teams Michigan beat were fraudulently ranked Wisconsin and Notre Dame teams. Hell, the biggest fraud may be Ohio State because they only played Michigan and Texas all season, but at least they didn't lose. On the other hand Florida beat LSU, Tennessee, and Arkansas, and only lost to Auburn because Chris Leak is a moron.
- Florida may not have been impressive in, well, any of their wins. But to any Michigan fan screaming that I have 6 words: Ball State by 8 at home. No excuses, that's pitiful
- Michigan had its chance. Yes I know people are tired of hearing that, but it's true. If Michigan would have had another chance at Ohio State it would have been tantamount to the NFL saying "You know, the Steelers and Colts played a great playoff game, they should play again in the Super Bowl!!"
- Michigan against Ohio State was not as close as the score may indicate. Ohio State committed 3 turnovers, 2 of which were not forced by Michigan (i.e. a bad snap), and it still took a last minute score to get Michigan within 3 points.
- No matter what Lloyd Carr says there are only 2 factions who will say Michigan deserved a shot at OSU more than Florida. 1) Michigan fans, and 2) Hypocritical journalists who would have screamed "Florida got robbed" if Michigan would have gotten the NC shot. That's it, that's the list.
- Michigan plays OSU again, beats them, split national champion. It would have happened I'm fairly sure, although obviously I have no way to prove it.
Again, as much as I have ragged on the SEC and Urban Myer even I can see through the B(C)S and know that Florida deserved the shot way more than. There really is no debate
