This is becoming a huge NCAA game.

With LU as the #3 BCS player and Mich and toSu playing each other Nov 18th...

The possibility of Louisville playing in the Title game is a real deal.

Rutgers seems like the real deal this year too.

They've played a decent schedule and have only one loss.

Who do you think will take it?

I hope Louisville wins, but something tells me Rutgers has a defense. Something the Cardinals have not seen this year. Plus it's AT Rutgers.

Meh, Rutgers's D is a litle overrated. If uconn had a clue on 3rd down play calling, they could have beaten rutgers. Rutgers hasn't exactly played any offensive teams - none in the top 25 for total offense. That will change this Thurs.

Rutgers is undefeated. Rutgers needs to win out and not make it to the championship game, like Utah, Auburn, Tulane, etc. Just more fodder.

If Louisville wins out, they'll be in the BCS champ game and get routed. No on wants to see that.

Would you rather see the Whorns than Louisville??
Truth be told.. I don't think tOSU wants to play them again. I also don't guarantee tOSU win like I did a few weeks ago.

I say we need a playoff...
I also say the SEC is overrated, but I'd rather see the SEC Champ play than Louisville or Tejas.

If Michigan beats tOSU then we will have a real problem.

IF L'ville or Rutgers win out they should have to play the Boise St. Broncos in the smurf-turf bowl. Or at a neutral site for a "play-in" game.

Hope Rutgers, I hate "the 'Ville" and don't want them near smelling distance of a BCS bowl...

I've been on the Rutgers bandwagon for some time now.

While I would love to see Rutgers win (I love seeing an underdog that is not playing OU win), I don't see them as having much of a chance. Louisville has much better athletes, and has been playing at a top 25 level for much longer. Rutgers is also a suspect passing team, which means Louisville can load up on the run and shut them down. Of course, anything can happen on a wacky November Saturday. No matter what, it will be fun to watch.

I had an arguement with one of my buddies after the first week of the season that I thought Rutgers had a legitimate top 25 team. That said I think at this point they are overrated. They aren't a national champion contender to be sure. I think Louisville and WV both beat them handily.

Ideally Rutgers would lose to Louisville and beat WV.

Go Rutgers. Those guys won only 18 Big East games from 1991-2004, so this is like Baylor or Duke going undefeated. Screw Louisville, they're probably cheating anyway, and I'd like to see how far RU moves up ahead of the one-loss, "it's 'cause we're the most powerful conference" SEC teams.

Texas needs to be kept out of the NC game at all costs. That means I'm a big 'Ville fan this year.

Well....

The poll closed with 32 for Louisville vs 15 for Rutgers.

I didn't realize the game was the 9th when I posted this.

I set the poll to close at 12 am on the 11th...so I'm posting this as the Official Results.

Well, looks like Texas or USC will be playing for it all again this year.
