YASNY Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 QUOTE(Heads22 @ Jan 2, 2007 -> 12:13 AM) It depends if they want to use their ballot in such a manner. They held on against a team that while top 10, isn't close to being national championship caliber. I'd likely vote them 4th or 5th in the final poll depending on the results of other teams, but I fear that enough people might give them enough votes to leapfrog someone more deserving. I know it dosn't mean a whole lot, but that's how I feel. I think OSU, Florida, USC and LSU are teams that are better than them. I'm not arguing that point. But somebody giving them a tip of the cap, so to speak, is hardly douche baggery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerbaho-WG Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ Jan 2, 2007 -> 01:16 AM) The whole playoff thing was out of place, and completely stupid. Thom Brennaman is a baseball announcer and is easily one of the best in the business. Don't hate on him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3E8 Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 QUOTE(WhiteSoxfan1986 @ Jan 2, 2007 -> 12:15 AM) So what was better, BSU-OU or USC-Texas? That's like choosing a favorite child. I can't do it. But I can't get enough Vince Young and have a deep and utter hatred for USC and Pete Carroll so maybe that's why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could pick literally billions of people to broadcast the game worse than Thom did. And after seeing one of the greatest football games ever and you nitpick the broadcaster, something tells me you might have missed the ridiculousness that was the last 10 minutes of the game.

I could care less how many you find. His random out-of-place cheerleader rant began to overshadow what was happening on the field. BTW, the constant David v. Goliath references got old fast. They weren't 30 point underdogs. Furthemore, i wasn't the first one to bring it up, which means i'm not the only one to "nit pick" this.

At least as a person who isn't a fan of Oklahoma and usually roots for the underdogs, I thought Thom was doing a fine job of saying pretty much what I was thinking throughout that whole fourth quarter.

redandwhite Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 I'm absolutely shocked that Wisconsin won today considering they had so much trouble moving the ball on the ground all afternoon. Pretty remarkable, but the Big Ten could escape with wins in 3 of the 7 bowl games. It's not that I hate the Big Ten, I just seriously dislike Michigan.

I mean, one thing that would have driven me nuts...Michigan/OSU rematch, Michigan wins that game...what do you have, OSU winning the Big 10 and Michigan winning the national champiionship? that's F***ed up right there.
