It comes down to two things for me:
-Florida has beaten better teams than Michigan
-Florida is the champion of their conference (arguably the best conference) and Michigan is not.

while Fla did have the #1 hardest schedule, Michigan had the #3. They did have one common opponent though. It was Vanderbilt, Fla won 25 to 19 while Michigan won 27 to 7
Fla will get thier asses handed to them
Michigan is not the Big Ten champs only because the #1 team in the nation is in the same conference[/quote:a0654]
and with each team having one loss, it comes down to strength of schedule, which Florida won.
Bringing up a common team and deriving something from the scores they put up is nonsense. Everyone knows that sports don't follow logical, mathematical properties, it means nothing. I'm an unbiased person, I wanted Michigan to go at first, but by the end of the season, I think Florida deserves it more and I think it will be a very exciting game. I wouldn't be so sure of Florida getting their asses handed to them either...
