Odyssey,
I'm with you on Michigan. (That speaks words considering I'm a graduate of The Ohio State University) I like the fact that Michigan has an all world WR is Edwards. They also have a great running back and a strong qb. True, they are both freshman. But I'll still take Big Blue. Some other things I've taken notice, the obvious Mack might be the biggest idiot in all of coaching when it comes to big games. So far Memphis or Purdue have shown the worst coaching to date in the bowl games. Also, this is the 2nd year in a row for Michigan to be at the Rose Bowl. First time ever Texas has been to the Rose Bowl. Last I would like to add the Texas numerous times this season was down to mediocre teams this season and were lucky to come back and win. One other thing I'd like to note, Michigan did get their asses whooped by my Buckeyes this year. But also I think a key factor there is that Ohio St is one of the hottest teams in all of college football the past 5 or so games and will be loaded next year and preseason top 3. Ohio St came out and kicked the Hell out of Ok St in their bowl game. This is the same team that had Texas down huge earlier in the year and choked.
I'm taking Michigan + the points.
Good luck!
