We Have a Title Game. I Have a Headache.

Well now we know. We know that politicking helps your team. We also know that when you don’t play for two weeks, the general public (and apparently the coaches and members of the Harris poll) forget about you.

It’s Florida and Ohio State for the national championship of NCAA Football. Should it be Michigan instead? At this point, I am honestly exhausted from arguing (mostly inside my own head) about which one-loss team should play the Buckeyes.

Basically, both deserve to be there. And how ridiculous is the notion that there’s a team out there that doesn’t deserve to be where they are? All these teams have worked hard enough this year to deserve to be there so can we just drop that whole thing please?

So yes, Florida deserves to be there. I just don’t think Michigan deserved to be knocked out. They haven’t played in a couple weeks so some people may have forgotten how dominant they were.

Then there’s the notion that a lot of people don’t want to see a rematch of Michigan/Ohio State. Well, there’s a good reason for the two best teams not to play.

And now Lloyd Carr is catching heat for not speaking up and campaigning for his team, while Urban Meyer is too for doing the exact opposite! How ludicrous is this whole situation?!

But we’ve said it here before, it is what it is. It obviously does no good to argue back and forth, complain about the best regular season in all of sports being followed up by the most ridiculous postseason, and scheme with everyone from your boss to your grandmother on how the system could be improved. We all know the answer to that.

Hopefully someday soon, we’ll able to actually see what is so obviously clear. But not today. So let’s be thankful for another great regular season, and look forward to some terrific bowl games.
