Michigan got cheated because they don't get to lose to OSU twice in one year.
Go Buckeyes!!!

This is why the BCS is such a bunch of sh*t! There are valid arguments for different scenarios. Being a Michigan fan, I definitely wanted the rematch. Now we have to watch a championship game that is going to be a blowout. Dear Coach Tressel: Please leave starters at home so that the game is somewhat close!

Karl C is wrong it does not state you have to win your conference or against rematches. Its all politics, Florida lobbied off the field, I guess that where it counts...Look at each tems loss and who they were too. Florida will loose by atleast 18 in the big game, and that will prove that Michigan should have been there..

If That Team Up North had got a national championship bid... There would have been no reason to play the game since OSU just beat them!!! It's so sad to see Michigan cry because they think they got cheated. Here's a thought... Try WINNING your last game for a change... then cry if left out of the NC game!!! GO BUCKS!!!

nope michigan did not get cheated. first, they play in the big ten, which basically means outside of 2 or 3, maybe 4 teams, they're schedule is not really all tough, on the other hand, florida, which plays in the sec, has to play a top25 opponent pretty much every weekend. Also, michigan had their shot at osu and they blew it. they should get over it and cheer on their team in the rose bowl...

Hey Tigers, you need to quit whining because the BCS clearly states that it prohibits rematches and also clearly states that a team must win their conference to play in the title game. Plus the Gators beat Steve Spurriers team, beat Bobby Bowdens team, and damn, they even beat Bear Bryants former team. Our one loss was to a powerhouse Auburn team. Look at your loss, you should have been shutout because if you don't score 39 points, then sh*t, you would have lost 42-0 and we don't want to see a repeat of that do we. I bet the Gators will at least score 3 points.

The funny thing is - most Michigan fans will be cheering for Florida - because they absolutely hate Ohio State.

Michigan had their shot at OSU and they lost. Their fans need to get over it.
