You might want to go back and read the thread again. I gave my reasons for a possible upset. I also said if Ga came out fired up they might win by 70. Once I saw Boise State could beat friggin East Carolina I knew it was gonna be a long night for Hawaii.

When $$$$ was on the line I went with a different upset.

Well next year we will see where UGA is ranked compared to USC. I will put a ton of money on the fact UGA will be ranked higher than USC. http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/bowls0...t&lid=tab2pos1

Then you would be a fool. NEVER try to predict what the pinheads who vote will do. Besides, it don't matter where they start, its where they end that counts

Well, after they lose to OSU the third week of the season, it'll be an uphill climb.

In my opinion the best two teams not in the N.C. are West Virginia and USC.

Dude you truly dont know a darn thing about college football do you? Did you even watch FLA play at all this year? FLA's secondary was weak this whole year and to no suprise, Hynne tore us apart. Our secondary SUCKS! If we even had a decent secondary we would have easily came out with a win. I was at the game and I couldn't believe how easy Manningham (however you spell his name) got open. Our secondary seriously has maturing to do in the offseason. And what the heck was with FLA's o-line? Gave Tebow like less than two seconds to find a receiver. Definately their worst game of the season without a doubt. Any Florida fan would agree with me.

You sound just like the OSU fans you were bashing last year after the NC. Quit crying, your team lost to the same team that got embarressed by Appy State.

UMMM wow...FLA KILLED OSU 41-14 last year. FLA lost by a mere two field goals and still played their worst game of the season. Imagine if FLA came to play? yeah please sitdown and close your mouth.

Cue the typical "UM wasn't the same team at the beginning of the year" excuse all SEC fans like to use.

I could use the same excuse for OSU. I'm not going to because I realize we got outplayed and outcoached, but you sound just like OSU fans did last year. Your team lost, stop making excuses.

Michigan played an amazing game. By no means I am not taking credit away from them at all. They obviously wanted it more than FLA did. MY point is FLA played their worst game of the season but still they only lost by less than a TD. Its not like FLA got blown out by UM like FLA did to OSU last year. It was a good game and could have easily gone either way.

I don't know if -4 in the turnover department is an amazing game.

please just shutup...did OSU not return the kickoff for a touchdown? OSU did come to play and got WHOOPED by a much more superior team. FLA didn't come to play this year and lost to an OKAY Michigan team that wanted it bad. They had every reason to want it more than FLA. They were losing Carr and it was the last chance for UM's senior class to win a bowl game. I am not making excuses I am stating the obvious facts. Then again, I don't expect much from a sorry Big ten fan.

"Other than turning the ball over 4 times they played a great game."


And you wonder why SEC fans are looked down upon and thought of as lacking in the intelligence department.

Hmm, one interception was from a stupid trick play that didn't have a chance at working. The other interception was from a D lineman. Both fumbles came from Hart on the 1 yard line. Give me a break, those 4 turnovers were really lucky. I know I am making FLA look bad right now but it is the truth. Michigan played a good enough game to win with 4 turnovers. FLA played horrific. What do you want me to say, the Big ten is better than the SEC? Riiight.
