oh, and this game is gonna be great. Two amazing big10 football teams going at it on the last game of the season... i cant think of anything better.

Why not? Me and a guy at work think that its possible for them to play again in the National title if they game would be close.


And i have a ticket to the game but im not sure if im going or not since id be going alone and im a Michigan fan ;)

On one of the local call-in sport shows they were trying to figure out if it would be possible for UM and OSU to play in the last game of their seasons... and again for the National Chapionship. Assuming that the game wasn't a blow out either way.

The hosts were of the opinion that although possible... it would be highly unlikely due to all of the other things that would need to happen.

I'm rooting for OSU so they knock Mich out of the top 3. Then USC only has to lose to Cal or Oregon or ND and then WVU (if undefeated) will play for the national title!

I agree but the fact that in previous years in the bowl game the loser of the national title if ranked #1 at the time as ended up finished at #2, even if the #3 team won.
