Sugar Bowl could take ND.

Zero chance. They are competing with the Cotton Bowl for the new "champions bowl" and will not piss off the SEC like that. TBH, I doubt they would do it even if the "champions bowl" issue didn't exist, but right now would be an especially bad time to do anything that would upset their longtime SEC partners.

No chance in hell the Sugar Bowl would skip on a SEC team.

The Rose Bowl almost certainly will not have UF as an option because of the "two team per conference" restriction (Alabama to BCSCG and its replacement to Sugar). Similarly, if FSU wins the ACC, the Rose Bowl cannot select them because they will be locked into the Orange Bowl. I agree on ND, assuming Oregon goes to BCSCG and no other P12 teams are BCS eligible, but I believe it's very possible one of Stanford or Oregon State might squeak into the top 14. We will have to wait and see on that. Also, if Oklahoma wins out they will be on everyone's short list for a BCS at large.

I'd love for another shot at ND.

I'm going to give it to the team with the better record and who beat us. Call me crazy.

I think ND is a better team than Michigan and if there was a rematch they'd still come out ahead.

Rematch won't happen, but I would love to see it. ND was the better team that night.

I wouldn't say that the team with a better record and who beat another team, has a better defense every time. Offense, special teams... Are factors involved in those cases.

ND is better, but name a college rematch where the result stays the same.

The refs can cost the game, see GB vs Seattle this year. I wasn't saying they can't. I was saying, don't let that happen. There are plenty of plays throughout the game that if they went one way or the other, change the outcome of the game. Control what parts you can control, and then you won't have to worry about the refs controlling the part that they control.

Yep. If you play well enough, you can overcome bad calls. MSU isn't good enough to do so; no where to look but in the mirror.
Michigan State does not and will not run the 3-4 defense.

Probably MSU. Both teams play Northwestern, but UM has yet to face tOSU's O.

I don't care what anyone says, yeah it was a close one but ND is undefeated and a top 4 team. Michigan isn't even in the top 25.
No way Michigan beats this years ND team.

Yep, ND is the real deal. At this point you have to applaud what they've accomplished. They are most likely on their way to play Alabama in January.

Brian Kelly has that team playing at a level both of our programs would love to see. It's hard to argue with success at this point, they are undefeated and looking poised to run the table.
Sure they won a close game against Pitt, but so what? A win is a win.

I thought we were going by the rankings? Rankings say K State will play Alabama. Do you have different rankings you use to support different posts?

The team plays well together. I hate that fact, but their leaders are way better then anything we have. Brutal schedule. They find a way. That said: 35-14 Alabama.
