It would have been as complete a clusterfrick as the regular season was in 2007.

UGA/WVU was a toss up for me. WVU lost a fluke to Pittsburgh. UGA was a way better team at the end compared to when they lost to SCar and Tenn.

BOWL: Ohio State vs. Florida


Don't know how good the Buckeye defense was that year, but they were still playing smashmouth O and our D was jello up the middle. Seems like a 38-30 type game to me, as I think we still move the ball on them. Meyer and Mullen were incredible with > 1 week to prepare at UF.

Florida with > 1 week to prepare for the opponent 2005-2010: 18-1

The only defeat was that Michigan game in 2007. Harvin ran for 160 and caught for 80 more, best player on the field by far. Defense had 9 sacks, 2 picks, 3 forced fumbles - still couldn't stop them under 5:00 in the fourth.

The most interesting part of that 2007 season was that its the only time no WR went in the first round of the draft (2008 NFL draft).

12 teams should be more than enough for a CFB playoff. Those 4 seeds are nope.

Most years 3 teams at most earn a shot. I would prefer 2vs3 with the winner playing 1 in years 1and 2 are not clear.

I actually agree. They were on fire at the end of the year.

That loss was totally embarrassing in every sense. That was a notn a good Michigan team, despite the NFL talent from that unit.

Too bad D. Dixon got hurt from Oregon. That team was on fire until his injury. I don't know if they would've won it all but they were so damn good that year.

2007 definitely makes a good argument against 16 team playoffs. That looks freaking terrible.
