This has been a damn good game so far. And as a diehard Michigan fan, I have been very pleased so far. 21-14 Michigan leads to start the 2nd half.

Michigan WINS!!!! 41-35. Ive never been so happy, this is awesome. What a great way for Lloyd Carr to end his career as Michigans head coach. Hats off to the players for the pride they played with.
Hail to the Victors!!!

Ah, its OK, Ohio State will get whats coming to them. Maybe they will prove me wrong, but I feel they got into the National Title game by default, not by earning it.

Hey, I admit they got lucky, super lucky, but they deserve a shot at the title. Personally, I'm fuckin' scared of LSU; they got a shit ton of talent on their team, and I'll have the OSU-Illinois and OSU-Florida games in the back of my head the whole time. But I still hate Michigan. Except for your amazing ski lodges, those are alright.:thumbsup:

Its understandable to hate Michigan as an Ohio State fan, that is expected. However, you cant deny that they played one hell of a football game and sent Lloyd Carr out the right way. Florida is still a great program and we played with them and with the lead for majority of the game. They showed real heart, and if it wasnt for Michael Hart's fluke 2 fumbles inside the 1 yard line, the score we would have been 55-35. To turn the ball over 4 times and still win, says quite a bit about the character and determination of a team.
Dont Hate just to Hate. Give respect where respect is due. Just like I will give OSU respect if they beat LSU.
I think OSU is probably about the 4-5th best team in the country, I still think LSU, Oklahoma, West Virginia, and USC are all better; they just had harder divisions this season. The big 10 has been in a bit of a slump for the past 3-4 seasons.

Congrats to the Wolverines, quality win. Nice for Lloyd Carr to exit with a quality win like that one.
Unfortunately, my guys, the Virginia Cavaliers blew a 14 point 4th quarter lead to lose on a last second field goal to Texas Tech. Tough loss for us, would've been nice to win the Gator bowl, win 10 games for only the 2nd time, and have a quality win heading into our 2008 season opener against Southern Cal. Oh well, time for basketball season baby!! Go Hoos

OH - IO. Go Bucks!!!
On that note, I thoroughly enjoyed the Michigan-Florida game. I must admit I was literally yelling for Michigan to win. I cringe saying that but I wanted to see Florida lose and wanted Big 10 schools to win in their bowls andddddd I think Lloyd Carr was a good coach and enjoyed seeing him go from Michigan a winner (in an exciting game at that!).
Though I am a life long fan of The Ohio State buckeyes, I have and always will have respect for Michigan.
I was intimidated by LSU at first, but at closer inspection of their season, they shouldn't be in the Championship game (similar to what some say to OSU). The one game that sticks in my mind is the Auburn-LSU game where they were losing with a minute or 2 left in the game and Auburn pooch kicks the kickoff giving them WONDERFUL field position with little time left. A simple REGULAR kick off would have won them the game thus giving LSU 3 losses. Besides that, my grandfather and father are alumni of Auburn and believe LSU's defense has a bunch of flaws in it. It should be a good game at the least. I doubt OSU wants to get their ass handed to them like last year.
