well, rutgers has one of best defensive lines and both teams average about 7 points in points allowed which could be an interesting game to watch. i know ohio state is very exploding in offense but rutgers has ray rice to lead the team.
let's reach the judgment's day verdict at then end.

Puuuuuuhleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease....
There's not a defense in this country that can cope with that.
Even if Rutgers makes it through the season undefeated, they will not play for the National Championship.
Exactly. They are a bunch of hacks, and just got very lucky this year by playing some mediocre teams.

As much as it hurts to say it.... I don't see Michigan coming though either.
Unless they've just been doggin it the pat few games... I mean come on... 17 points against Northwestern. MSU scored 35+ in the 2nd half when they played N'western.
UM will need to bring their A game and more to the "Horseshoe"
I'm not sayin it can't happen.... just highly unlikely.
If Auburn going undefeated in the SEC, and still not playing the championship game didn't start your playoff campaign, but OSU-Michigan playing again the title game this year does, then your priorities are all wrong. I'm not sure they aren't the two best teams in the nation, really, but we'll see.
Winner of OSU-Michigan is in the title game, and, in my opinion, if W.Virginia or Louisville end up undefeated, they are the other team in the title game. Now, Florida is going to argue, if they get through the rest of their schedule with 1 loss, that they deserve a shot - and they may just pass Louisville in the BCS standings if that were to end up, but I don't think they would pass W.V.
I just don't want ND to end up in the BCS title game - they don't deserve to be there, at all - even if they beat USC - I want to see ND end up in a BCS game, with Florida or Texas as their opponent, and watch them get pounded, again, in a bowl game.

The whole wanting to be #2 in the BCS is just silly, who really wants to lose to OSU when they could possibly win in one of the other 4?
Although I agree about Rutgers. I don't get why people can say WVU or Louiville would be a sure thing if they ran the table, yet Rutgers couldn't be even though they'd have to beat both WVU and Louisville to do so. Although I don't see it happening nor does most anyone else which is understandable as to why they're pretty much already written off.

Theres atleast a 50/50 shot of this happening if OSU loses a close game(3 points or less) to Michigan.
Just look at the numbers people.
USC lost to an unranked team, they fell six spots in the rankings.
If OSU were to lose, at most they would drop is 3-4 spots. They would still be in the top 5 in the human polls, and it would be a very close race for the #2 spot in the BCS, and if I were a betting man Id put OSU at #2 in this scenario.
Yeah, well you think Texas is better than Michigan so I don't put a lot of stock in what you think.

Rutgers won't go to the National Championship even undefeated b/c of preseason rankings.

Why shouldn't it? USC clearly would not deserve the #2 slot even if OSU lost (nor would they deserve the #2 slot if Michigan lost). And come on, West Virginia? Texas? Florida? Louisville? Auburn? You've got to be kidding me. None of them deserve the #2 ranking.
Regardless of the outcome of the game on the 18th, OSU and Michigan will still be the top two teams in the country.
