After OSU-MI’s 42-39 Game, It Should Be Rematch Time
Rutgers’s loss to Cincinnati only proves the “any given day (or night)” cliche doesn’t just belong to the NFL any more, and how evenly matched college football teams are today. Recall that UC gave OSU a half-decent game at OSU for a little over a half.
I don’t see how you drop Michigan below #2 after today’s close one. There isn’t a better one-loss team in the country. Notre Dame beating Southern Cal and Florida losing an SEC championship game would make the process easier, but IMO the OSU-Michigan rematch should be on for the national championship no matter what.

ADDENDUM: Really now, who do you think OSU would least want to play on January 8?
UPDATE: Michigan remains at Number 2 in the BCS Rankings (.9263) by the slimmest of margins over USC (.9188), a fair amount of daylight over Florida (.8838), and a big gap over Notre Dame (.8198). USC’s as close as it is because the two human polls (Harris and USA Today) have the Trojans at Number 2, while five out of the six computer rankings have the Wolverines at Number 2. This is officially ridiculous; USC’s loss is to a team (Oregon State) that isn’t anywhere near anyone’s Top 25. Michigan should be miles ahead of USC.
