2007 NCAA Football Thread

[Caliber]

Pfft.

Florida earned it. They definately showed that in the game too. :arm chomp:

They earned nothing. Its Boise State who should have been in that game but I guess going 13-0 means nothing.

Oh, you mean going 13-0 against teams like San Jose State or Nevada?

 

[Milkman95]

Boise State DID NOT belong in the BCS Championship Game, sorry. They can pull off an upset now and then, but hanging with the big dogs week in and week out wouldn't happen.

Florida earned it. Top 3 Teams in 2007:

1. USC
2. FLORIDA
3. MICHIGAN

Notre Dame isn't even ranked in the TOP 25.......Awesome.

SI's top 10 are a little too off compared to ESPN's.

 

[Kaleb]

someone on espn said that Urban Meyer whinned his way into the national title.

 

[Fran]

That's what my buddy (NOTE: A diehard U-M fan) says.

SI had a little spotlight about it. They had dates where he'd promote his team and complain about getting in.

I sort of believe it. But hell, Michigan had its chance.

And this year they're gonna be killer again.

 

[Mister J]

He did whine if you wanna get down to it. I saw the SI highlight of some of his quotes. In all reality, I don't blame him. Voters are susceptible to that type of thing. He felt like his team had a strong case and he knows the system is flawed, so he did what he could to get a favorable result.

He didn't make anybody do anything, just called attention to the matter. There was no harm in it and if it actually helped a few voters go the other way and vote for Florida, then it was well worth it. It's no different from what Mack Brown did to get Texas into the Rose Bowl in 2004. The articles that were written about Lloyd Carr afterwards, touting his 'integrity' for not politicking were nice and all, but at the end of the day you're trying to get to the title game. The BCS has screwed teams over in the past and it'll screw some over in the future. Meyer did what he could to try to keep his team's name off that list. I can't find fault in that.

I always get a laugh from the "Who earned/deserves" chat, lol

 

[Fran]

To be honest, I would have wanted to see the rematch. I mean, this is one of, if not the most hated rivalry in College Sports.

Playing for the BCS title would just add more fuel to the fire, and many more people would have watched it (except for Floridians and some other Southerners possibly).

 

[Darth Elektra]

Florida definately earned it. If USC was in the championship game though, i think Ohio State would have one by a slim margin.

The way Ohio St. played that night... and team in the top 10 would have beaten them.

Lol, you funny.

Top 3 Teams in 2007? Florida lost its QB and is trying to replace him with a RB.

All that matters is that right now Georgia has a good shot at being on top of the SEC come December 2007.

- Stafford ended the season one of the best QB's in the SEC.

- Most of our Defense (especially our Secondary) returns.

- Neil Calloway is gone, hopefully his underperforming OL performances are too.

- Number 14 is calling our plays.

- Mark Richt is still our coach.

- Thomas Brown, Kregg Lumpkin, Knoweshon Morenson in our back field - along with Brandon Southerland.

- Martrez Milner is no longer on the roster.

Tim Tebow...the white Michael Vick


Though, that might be stretching it. At least Vick tries to get the ball to someone else. Timmy just takes the snap and runs.

Look for USC and LSU to be the dominant teams.

- Stafford

'09 Heisman winner

Its funny when you are watching the game with friends and as soon as Tebow comes in everyone can shout out the play (run left).

Damn did we get lucky with Stafford over Tebow or Mistang

 

[Darth Elektra]

And whats funny is everyone knew it, but no one could stop it.

Top 25 breakdown, it was a interesting read.

 

[Mister J]

More than likely.

It's already starting.

Georgia did

 

[Tangled Web]

How does Nebraska look next year?

Oh and Notre Dame looks like crap but it should still be a hot ticket when they come to Pasedena this year.

 

[Darth Elektra]

Georgia did

Did they? That was one of the few big SEC games I didnt get to see.

 

[Ben Urich]

UCF = 2007 BCS Champions.

1. USC Trojans
Why: Quarterback John David Booty's stellar performance (391 passing yards, four touchdowns) in the Trojans' 32-18 win over Michigan in the Rose Bowl presented by Citi showed he's among the best passers in the country. The Trojans played a boatload of underclassmen this season; if junior defensive end Lawrence Jackson and defensive tackle Sedrick Ellis return, they could have 10 starters back on defense.
