USC doesn't have the offense to keep up with Florida. That's not even debatable. Florida would win something like 31-14
There is no way Florida is playing USC. USC and Penn State are both locked into the Rose Bowl. Florida might get matched up with either Oklahoma, Texas or Boise State, Utah or Ohio State..if Bama wins.Quote:

Much closer game than that...I'm sayin like 26-24....whoever. i hate both teams.
I don't know about USC. Who cares is they have 8 high school stars in their backfield, the production hasn't been that great. Take away the two games against the peewee level schools in Washington and their offense has been nothing too special. 17 points against Arizona, 17 against Cal, 21 against Oregon State in a notoriously defenseless league. Obviously I have a huge Gator bias, but I think Florida's defense would dominate USC.
And don't we all remember how a little shifty back from OSU dominated USC? Florida has 3 of them, 5'8 and smaller who all run 4.3 40's.
But it'll never happen, so fuck it. I'm just looking forward to Florida's dismantling of Bama on Saturday...
true, bummer.Quote:

That would have been a good matchup. Both undefeated and playing in weaker conferences.
I dunno what there reasoning behind it was tho.
i'd be interested in knowing that myself. thats ball st. chance to show people what they can do against some good competition in a nice bowl game.
Ball state is going down vs Buffalo today
Check out this proposed 16 team playoff format. I think this would be the ideal situation for NCAA football. It allows for upsets and all that too. Plus its fair to all conferences.

i have to reformulate my argument after reading a bit more into it.
he's on the right track, but i still have a problem with the at large deal. it still leaves room for arbitration which should not factor at all. postseason qualification should be decided on the field and only on the field.
i still say you should do one of the following:
eliminate the non BCS conferences altogether and just have the schools in BCS conferences play for the title and if schools from the non BCS conferences think they can hang they can be added to the BCS conferences.
or
have two leagues like in MLB. BCS and non BCS. teams from each league play teams within their league only and you pick 8 from each league based on record to play it out and the champion from each league plays each other at the end.
either way, the situation where some geeks pick who deserves to go or not is eliminated.
As Wade explained, this just doesnt workQuote:

wow...
all the need is the winner of each conference goes into the playoff. but playoffs don't make enough moneyQuote:

you're gonna tell me a 4 loss troy and 3 loss BC should get a spot over USC?
wuts wrong with at large bids?? is that not how teams get into the basketball tourney???
You can't decide everything on the field cuz they don't all play eachother and tie breakers dont work cuz there are too many teams and conferences.
