Michigan Still #2 in BCS!

This folks is exactly the way it should be. They are the #2 team in the country.

Now we have USC who moved up in a couple of polls. The consensus is that USC, and only USC really has a shot at jumping Michigan based on the computers. If they win out by defeating Notre Dame and UCLA in effect flipping them and Michigan in the remaining computer ranks they need. The pollsters seem to be leaning towards USC moving up in that scenario, also.

Current rankings/polls:

BCS Ranks

So as a long time Michigan fan I have to actually root for the hated Fighting Irish to take USC down. I can justify USC jumping htme if they win out. Michigan had their shot and USC in my mind is the only team that has a chance at getting the next one.

WE ARE N-D!

I Want a Rematch

The game was the greatest in many years. The two teams traded touchdowns and it came down to just a few miscues to decide the outcome.

No one can honestly say that Michigan and Ohio State are not the best two teams in the country. Michigan proved they are probably the only team that can compete with OSU. Any other match up in the BCS Championship game would be laughable.

So we have one true contender undefeated along with a string of one loss teams that can get a shot at OSU for the title.

Let's see:

Michigan (Lost by 3 to the #1 team in the country on the road)
USC (Lost to a 7-4 Unranked Oregon St. team)
Florida (Lost to #11 LSU on the road by 10)
Notre Dame (THROTTLED at home by MICHIGAN)
Arkansas (THROTTLED by USC at HOME)

Based on just that information you have to decide who had the least embarrassing loss. It's pretty obvious. Michigan. Rematch should be a no-brainer if you want the best two teams in the country to play again.
