Here is what SLF said:
At least Clemson is ranked. Can't say the same for the Irish.

State beat the team you lost to ... at their place.
U-M beat the the teams we lost to ... at home.
State beat U-M in their head to head meeting.
State finished 7-1 in the Big 10 with a tougher schedule
U-M finished 6-2 in the Big 10 with a softer schedule
please help me find any LOGIC that would dictate U-M > State in 2011.
Michigan's schedule is ranked #42.
And that INCLUDES your 2nd game against Wisconsin.
So that pretty much does in your tougher schedule argument.
Look, you got blown out by Notre Dame. You got blown out by Nebraska. If you were somehow a significantly better taam than Michigan, that wouldn't have happened.
Do you really think MSU would be heavily favored over Michigan on a netrual field? Really? I can't believe the line would be more than about a point either way.

Of course 6 of the 7 BCS computer polls say Michigan is better, with Sagarin pegging Michigan as a 1.5 point favorite on a neutral field, but I'm sure you'll just tell me the computers are all biased against MSU.

by the way ... I don't think I've claimed MSU should be in a BCS bowl game ... just that they deserve (based on accomplishments) to be in one more than U-M.
As for the schedule ... U-M had two tough road games (and lost them both). State had 4 tough road games (and went 2-2 included a beat down of Iowa)Forever One!

Originally posted by SeattleLionsFan View PostYou claimed VT should be nowhere near a BCS game because they lost to Clemson. I simply pointed out that Clemson was ranked. Unlike the team that beat State.
They lost twice to Clemson badly and didn't beat a ranked opponent.

come on ... just come out and say you are a typical arrogant ass U-M fan and that there is NO WAY Sparty has passed you by no matter what the facts show.
I hope you enjoyed the years of Rodriguez, because playtime is over. You were at home this year with a senior QB. Next year things aren't quite so favorable.
