any football fans out there

Well, anyone want to weigh in on the way this season ended? Wild stuff. I for one don't like the way the polls have been manipulated at the end of the year, but so is life. Given that there are a number of people from Souther California on here, my guess is I'll be rooting against a number of you come New Years.

My neighbor went to IL... He is all crazy about the Illini going to the Rose Bowl... He's getting tickets and going to the game... He's also getting a tattoo of the chief to mark the occasion...

This season has again proven that we need a playoff. I don't think either team LSU or OSU deserved to be in the NC game. I think the hottest team right now is OU, and maybe USC. I think the national championship will end up being split with the winner of the BCS championship game and if OU wins the Fiesta bowl the AP will vote OU number 1.

I also think that TV announcers and ESPN has too much pull. They started lobbying for LSU as soon as the upsets happened. I also think all conferences either have to play a conference championship or none play them. It isn't fair to a team like Missouri when OSU can sit there and watch.

What I hate is the lack of consistency in the polls. I have never seen a situation where the number 7 team leap squeaks by the number 14 team and leaps over higher rated teams. In any other week of the system, LSU would be 3rd or 4th. The media wants LSU in the title game, so they got placed there. Missouri is the team that really gets hosed here. How Kansas finished in front of them is something I'll never comprehend. As for the chief tatoo, I love it.

GO TIGERS!!!!!!!

haha, there we go. I figured we had some SEC fans in here!

I like LSU, but Les Miles is the worst coach LSU has had in a while. He is floating on Saban's recruiting ability. LSU should have paid for his tickets to go see Michigan. OSU is gonna spank LSU.

Hey man, I'm not watching any more bowl games. It's all very anti-climatic when compared to Texas vs. USC for the National Title in 2005

LSU will kill OSU just like FLA did. and FLA will DESTROY MICH. i would like to have seen USC vs LSU for the title. i hope my USF bulls can pull out a win as well.

Good thing there is no playoff, or college football wouldn't be this good.

The SEC will dominate as usual... Remember the SEC has a lot of speed and talent. The GATORS should have a good game against Mich. (I just hope Fla State gets beat.)

I'm a Big Ten fan, and I think the Gators are going to work Michigan. OSU v. LSU will be a good one.

Its never gonna be fixed until their is a playoff system.A sweet 16 would be great.Schools would get more money,football would last a few extra weeks and you would have a definite champion,not a co champ or anything else.
