I am still looking for a ticket. Nice stadium and areas for great tailgating.

Where are you staying at? If I could make a recommendation on golfing go to the Wigwam close to the stadium and all the stars go there. Wigwam is the best course in the valley.

 

 

Im not sure exactly where I am staying. My buddy who is originally from Scottsdale made the hotel reservations.

 

As for golf I think we may be playing at Desert Mountain on Sunday. A bunch of the guys that I am going out there with played golf at OSU and one of them is a member there, so hopefully thats where we will be playing on Sunday.

OSU will kill Florida and than the BCS and the voters will realize that they did not get the 2 best teams in the title game.

I would of accepted USC getting the shot over Michigan, but not Florida.

Florida is going to win that game.

LOL, like what? Cause I said once in the college basketball thread that I thought Depaul was going to beat Kentucky? Ohio State turned me off a lot during their game against Michigan. Florida will win that game, just watch.

What's stupid about this is that the voters had Michigan ahead of Florida before the SEC title game. There is no way the win over Arkansas made the voters all of a sudden think Florida was better than Michigan, they just didn't want to see a rematch. It's as if they know Michigan is the better team, but don't want to see a rematch.

At this point though, what sane solution is there? It's a broken system and the voters are trying to put a band-aid on it by making their best decision.

 

Michigan did not win its conference championship. Florida did. Ohio State did. What happens if there is a rematch, Florida wins its bowl game, and Michigan wins the final game? Now Michigan loses the Big 10, and wins the national championship over another 1 loss team that did win its conference championship? That's freaking moronic.

Michigan lost to the best team in the nation by 3 points on the road, dropped one week later without playing and than got leap frogged by a team whose only loss was by 11 to Auburn.

Florida got to play for the national title because they got to play an extra game and the fact that someone voted for Florida OVER Ohio State tells me that it is BS, not BCS.

I'm not gonna argue or reflect on it, that is just my feelings. I would of accepted USC over Michigan even with the loss to Oregon State, but won't accept Florida.

Why? Florida has the number 1 strength of schedule in college football and won the best conference in football while only losing one game. I have no clue why you oppose Florida so much more than you would USC.

You look at the body of work, so yes it's perfectly reasonable for Florida (or any team) to leapfrog Michigan. If this weren't possible at all, you'd have an advantage for playing your games earlier in the season and not having a championship game. This whole "how can Michigan go down if they didn't play" sentiment is stupid. Other teams have a right to play out their schedule, and then you compare resumes.

 

Michigan already played OSU, and lost. And their resume certainly isn't better than Florida's.

You always try to call every upset ever. :bang

 

Won't happen this time.

This is going to happen. And what upsets are you talking about? I do go with a lot of upsets in my bracket every year during March Madness, but everything I call at least is usually semi close, guess everyone hates me now cause I'm making an unpopular pick. :P
