    ESPN poll:

    356,433 votes cast and it's a 50/50 split.


    South and Southeast all Florida, North, Northeast and West coast all Michigan (except Oregon).

    Maybe we'll be headed for a tie in the BCS standings. I would love that more than anything. And technically, it could happen. Although I presume the ties would have to be in both human polls as well, not Michigan up in 1 and Florida up in the other, because then you then could take the decimal point out far enough to decide a winner.

    3,000 more people just voted since I wrote this post up.

    The thing that I don't like is that Ohio State and UM already played and Michigan lost, wasn't even close for most of the game.
    Someone else should have a shot at Ohio State unless you could say that game was meaningless.

    Max said that games have more meaning in the regular season, well, apparently not if Ohio State and UM opinion is 50/50?

    Like I said in some other thread. OSU is the number one team in the nation. UM hung with them (even if OSU helped out a bit.) UM is number two, they have done nothing all season to relinquish that spot. The choice is a lot easier than people are making it. UM-OSU in Glendale for the title. The BCS sucks, we all know that.

    BCS, please serve us USC on a platter! The bowl site means nothing, if LSU fans could finally force USC fans to make thier team actually play in and win a game before claiming the prize for it.

    Why is it that new members (or members with relatively low posts) always make the best points on this board?

    381k voting and it's still split at 50/50.

    Good to see the SEC States overwhelmingly voting for Florida - of course they don't have roses on the line. And Kentucky is split but they're half big east anyway.

    I think USC fans are also very interested in seeing an LSU-USuCK showdown.
