Who do you have in the National Championship game? 

Post#1 » by SportsWorld » Sun Dec 2, 2007 4:39 am

Ohio State is most likely already in it but who will face them? LSU? Georgia? Oklahoma? Virginia Tech?
I think LSU because they have the best defense in the nation and their 2 losses this year were in triple overtime. Georgia is out of the picture IMO because they didn't even play in their conference championship game.

It should be Hawaii, but the Bull Crap Series is too much of a joke to consider an undefeated team that is not in a "major" conference. Whoever gets in will be nothing but an anointed recipient of a sham championship.
This space needs to be filled with a new sig...but I'm too lazy to make one.

once again you beat me to the punch,

im going to break it down

georgia should go but like you said they didnt even play in their conference championship game....but they finished the season strong

lsu will most likely go to the bcs championship game, as much as i hate it its true, they have a faster defense that ohio st. cant stop.

hawaii should be in consideration, they are undefeated, who cares bout the weak schedule, ohio st. has one also. and how many people would want to see colt brennan on tv?

oklahoma has a outside chance of making it, they are currently beating the crap out of mizzou and could make a huge impression just like florida did last season.

my pick is sadly LSU

LSU barly won 2-3 games and lost two. they should not be in. hawaii faced no one. 'lahoma no chance. kansas faced NO BODY aside from mizzou and they lost so no. GA didn't even win their conference, so no.

USC should be in. hadda pretty good schedule, lost to a terrible team close and lost to the best team in the country (wen they were healthy). USC's now fully healthy and the best team in the nation.

if i had it my way i wouldnt let OSU near the title game despite there one loss, the big 10 was a joke this year and hawaii is as deserving to go as they are.

i guess id choose LSU vs. USC or Georgia

this is probably the only year where'd id want a playoff system over a +1 system.

thats a dumbass argument about usc over lsu. USC went down to a 39 point underdog, they "barely" won 3 games too. and lsu lost 2 games in triple overtime, dont really know how usc is more deserving

If USC even gets mentioned as a "possibility" then it will just reaffirm my opinion that the BCS is nothing but a huge joke.

OSU vs. LSU is the most deserving matchup right now. As for Hawaii, no way i am going to put them in NC when they barely beat LA tech.

OSU vs. LSU is what it should be (and will be) looking at the entire season, USC vs. UGA is what it should be looking at who is playing the best right now.

GEORGIA CANNOT GET PICKED IN THE ROSE BOWL.

THIS IS THE IOWA RULE FROM 2002.

SUGAR BOWL HAS FIRST DIBBS ON GEORGIA.

I'm not going to pretend to be an expert on these Bowls, I just watch them, but why can't Georgia play in the Rose Bowl? They didn't win the SEC so they don't necessarily have to play in the Sugar Bowl. Unless I'm wrong, which is likely.

It's traditional that a Big Ten school plays a Pac-10 school in the Rose Bowl. It looks like it will be an Illinois/USC Rose Bowl

YES.

A bowl choosing a replacement team may not select any of the following:

A. A team in the NCG;
B. The host team for another BCS Bowl;
C. When two bowls lose host teams, then the bowl losing the number one team may not select a replacement team from the same Conference as the number two team, unless the bowl losing the number two team consents.

That's tradition, but the Rose Bowl CEO himself said a UGA/USC game is a possibility. No matter where Georgia ends up I'll be happy, though. I didn't have very high hopes at the beginning of the year with how many underclassmen we would be relying on.

THE SUGAR BOWL IS NOT GOING TO TAKE A LOWER RANKED TEAM. THEY WILL TAKE GEORGIA.

GEORGIA/USC HAS ABOUT A 1% CHANCE OF ACTUALLY HAPPENING.
