mpolak21 Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 7-0 We might be seeing each other at that December 2nd game in Morgantown if both teams come in undeafeated. Unfortantly there's this other team from Kentucky that WVU might need another miracle to get past first and we still have to play Pitt too. Congrats , it's long overdue. --Mike Link to post Share on other sites
parisisstale Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 Thanks. I still wasn't a believer until last night. Now I think we can play with Louisville (still not convinced we can match up with you guys, though). If we do have a chance to play for the Big East title on Dec 2nd, I'm coming down to Morgantown.

MrRain422 Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 in all my years at college i've never seen Notre Dame beat us....why start now? Because it would be funny? Link to post Share on other sites
lovenmercy Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 So, I was at a sports bar yesterday watching the Notre Dame/UCLA game. I was rooting for ND when my boyfriend looked at me and said, "What are you wearing that for?!!!" I had a UCLA sweatshirt on that I got when I visited my dad in CA. I'm such a dork.

I take it you don't remember the Todd Marinovich days. But the Irish suck and could barely beat MSU and UCLA. I'm sure they will fall victim to USC. It's hard to compete when your offering 1Karat diamond studs for each ear along with free rent for parents. Link to post Share on other sites

(with All Americas Pat Hayden QB,J.K. McKay SE,and Anthony "A.D." "Touchdown" Davis RB) riding high on a 28 game win streak visit South Bend to take on the #3,and also unbeaten Irish (w/ QB Tom Clements,RB Eric Pennick,FB Wayne Bullock,etc..). I was a few weeks from my 11th birthday,and I was THERE (w/ my Aunt,a season ticket holder).The most exciting football game I've ever been to.For those of you old enough to remember....

MrRain422 Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 Michigan is up to # 2 in the BCS! ...by, like, two one-thousandths of a point... Of course so long as they get the job done against the Buckeyes, it doesn't matter if they're #2 or #3 going into that last game....but its nice to see anyway. I was a little worried about this week's game early on, but Mike Hart got the job done later on. And Adrian Arrington makes them just fine in these upcoming weak games until Manningham is fully healthy. Link to post Share on other sites
cryptique Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 so long as they get the job done against the BuckeyesAy, there's the rub... As good as this Michigan team is, I have to admit that I'm not too optimistic about their chances in Columbus. What I'd love to see (but probably won't happen) is the rest of the undefeated teams all lose a game or two. That way, the loser of the U-M/OSU battle could possibly still be # 2 in the BCS (after all, their only defeat would be to the # 1 or # 2 team in the country) and we could have a rematch for the national championship game. I want to reiterate, however, my opinion that the BCS is retarded. Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not sure about the likelihood of an OSU/Mich rematch. I think its more possible if Michigan beats OSU in Columbus, just because the Buckeyes have a little more "padding" right now seperating them from the pack in case they take a loss in that game. Obviously, I hope this doesn't happen, tho. In terms of potential rematches, I've got my eye on a possible OSU/Texas pt 2. Link to post Share on other sites
watch me fall Posted October 23, 2006 Author Share Posted October 23, 2006 Kirk Herbstreit predicted the national championship game to be between OSU and the winner of the SEC, which he stated would be either Auburn or Florida (I suspect Arkansas may have something to say about that). I just don't see that happening. Link to post Share on other sites
quarter23cd Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 I'm not particularly swayed by all the hemming and hawing from the SEC this season about how "unwinnable" their situation is because of how good their league is. What I see in the SEC right now is several very, very good teams, but none that are clearly head and shoulders above the pack...and that's why I'm still not convinced that the SEC will send a team to play for the championship. And its funny, because I can remember making that exact same argument in other years when the Big Ten was much more evenly-loaded than it is right now (and I'm sure its true of any league in any year when there are several loaded teams), and I used to complain how difficult it was for anybody to go undefeated and how unfair that was to the rankings. And there was some truth to it, but it was also true that the reason everybody was beating each other up every week was that the teams were so evenly-matched, and everybody had just enough flaws, that nobody was quite good enough to really contend on a larger scale. So it'll be interesting to see if somebody from the SEC really steps up in the remainder of the season, but if nobody really seperates themselves, I don't think I'll be buying the "its too hard!" excuse. *** runs and hides... *** Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe Florida. I was really rooting for Bama to knock off UT on Saturday but that didn't happen. And it's too bad Miss St. couldn't have upset Georgia. We really need help to win the East considering we still have to play UT, Florida and Arkansas. Link to post Share on other sites
