Super Bowl 42 v. Rose Bowl 2006

SB 42 by a mile. While the Texas/USC game was one for the ages, the underdog beating the 18-0 team is a much more attractive game and IMO was much more fun to watch.

Even after winning the Rose Bowl, there is still a higher goal you can shoot for and achieve; the SB is as high as you can go as far as football is concerned.

SB 42 no question. College football is rarely interesting to watch compared to Pro.

If ifs and buts were candy and nuts then we'd all have a merry Christmas.

Isn't there an official thread for this sort of thing?

Humility is a dish best served repeatedly. Humble pie, for dessert?

 

[Nitemare]

If you mean the greatest team that choked and got beaten down by a team with 6 losses and got outplayed on both sides of the ball...then yes...

Of course. They merged all the Giants threads and made them unreadable.

I don't even bother to try to follow them anymore.

Definitely the best team of the Salary Cap/Free Agency era, regardless of how the next two games turn out.

All time: I'll consider it if they go 19-0.

Here we are at the finish.

Prerequisites were stated above, so:

No. We didn't even get to the consideration level, so they definitely can't claim the crown.

 

[BrokenVisage]

For the record.. now that I got my wish and the Pat's didn't go perfecto, I will reluctantly say they are the best team *I've* ever seen. Now let's hope for a steep decline!

Ok, have you had your fun Patriot haters and Giant fans?

Umm...no. The Patriots fanboi circle jerk that has been going on here for the last 19+ weeks was nothing short of annoying. Now it's everyone elses turn.

Bingo. Sucks doesn't it?

If you have a problem with some of the Pats fans take it out on them.
Not on the classy Pats players.

As a football fan, not a Pats fan or Giants fan, I didn't think the Patriot's players were too classy after they scored the touchdown they thought had won the game for them. I didn't see the Giants players preening after they scored.

And Belichick showed little class in post game interview.

You can't legitimately label a season including a conference championship and new records meaningless. Even sustaining The Loss, the season has to be meaningFUL to the Patriots.

Um, even some of the Pats players said this season is meaningless after losing the Super Bowl on Sunday. I would tend to agree with them.

Conference champion = nothing without the Super Bowl win. Go ask the Bears of last year how important being conference champions last year is to them.

It's a fucking consolation prize.

As a Giants fan since early 90's, I was a bit sad to see the Patriots lose. I was hoping they would win to cap off the awesome year. I thought the Giants had nothing to lose, and losing to an undefeated team would have been nothing to be ashamed of. I felt sorry for Brady; he is a class act. A lot of good guys on that team. I was so conflicted during the game, I was cheering for both teams.

I am not sure what you are, but you are certainly no Giants fan.

I have to agree ... the Patriots happen to be my second favorite NFL team and againts anybody else in the NFL I would have been rooting for them, however there wasn't one second in this game that I wanted to see them to win.

And to the many over-confident New England fans who did so much gloating this season ... suck it up & take it like men just like NY fans would have if things had gone the other way.

No kidding. So much for encouraging conversation about perhaps the greatest sports upset of all time.

Oh well. I'll stick to my Giants forums for Giants talk.
