Agreed.

I'm always puzzled by people who insists that, whether a team wins or loses, they're still the better team. Judging by what? Clearly not by their ability to beat the other team.

LOL

I don't see how Michigan folks can still realistically be angry. Your team was 11-1 without a conference championship. UF had to continue playing, and ultimately won their conference which lead to 12-1. Please...get over yourselves.

The BCS does suck overall. I think the playoff scenario would be a plausible solution. Although every single fan of a playoff team couldn't afford to travel to a final championship game, there are thousands of alumni they could definitely afford two trips in one day. *I'm surely not one of them!* Something has to be sacrificed to get a better system that fairly deterlmines the true national champion.

LOL @ fuckeyes

Have I mentioned yet that I have my tickets (20yl) to the Cotton Bowl and hotel reservation made for Dallas?

Go Big Red!

The best advice you'll ever get about the Cotton Bowl -- take a taxi there, make arrangements for one to pick you up. You don't want to park your car (or even have to walk around) in that neighborhood.

Thanks for the advice... any other tips? I'll be staying at a HI Express in Mesquite. Worst case scenario, hopefully the worst of that neighborhood will still be sleeping/hungover at the 10:30am start...

I haven't booked a hotel for Dallas yet. I think if we do it'll be the Hyatt Regency, which is the team hotel. My friend inherited a house in Lake Highlands, I think we'll probably end up staying there. Either way, I'm getting drunk, all day, all night.

I like the Regency as Shiner mentioned or the Adolphus -- the Adolphus has a really nice bar, live jazz, etc. I've never stayed in a HI Express.

If I were you, I'd spring for a nice, well located hotel. I like the rooms at the Hyatt better than the Adolphus, but the Adolphus has more character. The Hyatt has a bar up in that observation deck thing as well. Be sure to check out Greenville or Deep Ellum for the nightlife. West End is extremely overrated.

While I'd like to stay at the Adolfus (it's the team hotel), me and the group i'm going with is on a budget - $79/night govt rate is a lot better than $229 downtown, the only rate available since the tour companies booked all the rooms in advance.

The HI will be fine - it provides all I need for the one night I'll be there - a place to crash for a few hours.

So what's up with UCF voting for Michigan and not for Florida?! wtf? They were the only ones we played who didn't vote for UF. losers

How do coaches get to vote in the coaches poll?
