This is unbelievable! UCLA upsets USC!
USC will not play for the national championship this season. What a game the Bruins played. That's what happens in a rivalry game. Great moments.

2. Turmoil
And I love it. Actually, if Florida beats Arkansas, they will likely get the chance to play for the national championship. So let's go Hogs! Besides that, Arkansas is the birthplace of the last elected president we have had. I suspect that if Arkansas wins, we will see a Michigan-Ohio State rematch.

3. I'd be good with that lol
Of course it's looking like Florida's game so far.

4. Florida will have to put up some more points to go to the Championship Game.
Otherwise it will be Michigan. And I DON'T want a rematch of Michigan with Ohio State. That was settled just a couple of weeks ago.

Why can't Boise State play Ohio State. They are the only other undefeated team. They are good. They beat Oregon State and Hawaii.

6. Boise State is indeed unbeaten
But do you honestly think they'd have any chance at all vs. Ohio State? I don't think anyone has a chance against OSU to tell you the truth. Division 1 college football needs a playoff system.

7. Naw they don't have a chance against Ohio State, but...
they deserve it more than anyone else.

As far as I'm concerned, Ohio State is the National Champion. They shouldn't have to play again for the title. All the other big name teams have folded.

And I'm very much against a playoff series. These jocks are supposed to be taking classes. A series of playoff games would cut into their study time. But, ahem, how many of them even graduate?????????

8. Screw that.
If this game showed us anything it's that you CAN'T take anything for granted. If Ohio State truly is the best, then they have to prove it.

9. Let's see...
How many weeks will Ohio State have had off? If they lose, it will be blamed on them being rusty.

10. They can blame it on whatever they want if they lose.
It won't change the truth. If they're the best team, then they will beat whoever they play. Florida/Michigan will have had a lot of time off too, so it's really not a valid argument.
