They should have set up a rematch with Miami vs. Ohio State. . . can't believe that ridiculous Orange Bowl matchup

See my post nickel and bjfinste, it is so sickening how a great sport can be ruined by a bunch of morons, but the sad thing is, the guys will keep laughing all the way to the bank and they won't change the system, as they are making too much money and if it ain't broke don't fix it I guess is their theory

I agree that it may not be the best matchup possible for the game, but with both teams being in FL already, the Orange bowl was probably thinking of a sellout before anything else.

It would have been a sell out anyways! This is Miami!

Absolutely moronic how you can allow that crap to happen especially when they have already played once this year and open the next season playing each other.

Just proves what a joke this system has become.

Let's see what UM's allotment of tickets is, and how quickly they sell that allotment. UM sold out one home game this year - to instate rival UF. The Orange Bowl committee is not stupid enough to think that UM, by themselves, can sell out that game. Most people would rather see UM-UT or UM-OSU, but UM-FSU will sell more tickets. It is that simple.

Too close to Wisconsin
Think you guys are missing something here - Fiesta Bowl took OSU first so the Orange didn't have any choice.

It sucks because the matchups the other way would have been more intriguing but with the way FSU travels (compared to OSU), its hard to blame them.
