Lou Monaco: Spring Valley, NY:Gentlemen –
Before you take the field on Friday, I want you to reflect on all those non believers who said you’d never make it back to the title game, you know, those who said you lost too much talent from last years team. Also reflect back on all those hot and humid summer practices where you were told by your coaches that this is what it takes to return to the big game. Regardless of the outcome, I want you guys to know you’ve made me proud to be a Hurricanes fan. At a time when we up here in New York are recovering from taking one on the chin, rest assure we’ll be pulling for you guys on Friday night. Now go make history!

Alfonso Cruz: Indo,CA: Go Canes!!! Show Ohio State what true champions are made of!!!!
Chase Schulte: Punta Gorda, FL: Yo Canes you gonna win that bowl! Hope yall fell good bout it cause you are the best team!
Dave Hevey: St. Louis Mo.: Portis and Shockey competing for NFL rookie of the year,Ray Lewis and Warren Sapp two of the most dominant defensive players ever,James and the Colts vs. Santana Moss and the Jets. The proud legacy of Hurricane football lives . You guys must write the last chapter. Two in a row ! Should have been three but robbed by the Bcs and Florida state. Take no prisoners but execute with the same class you have shown all season. ps. I am also a long time dissapointed Miami Dolphin fan. I am starting a petition so you guys can play on Sunday in their place because you guys rock. Good luck friday! See you in the NFL.
Aaron Gomez: Lovington, New Mexico: Dear Hurricanes,
I just wanted to wish you good luck and don’t worry about Clarret he’s over-rated Willis McGahee is so much better.I would love to see the Hurricanes take home the National Championship back to Corral Gables once again. This is what I would like to see Jan. 3rd
Ken Dorsey- 25 of 37 for 281 yrds. and 2 TDsWillis McGahee- 134 yrds. rushing with 2 TDs
My guess Miami 47 Ohio St. 17
Do it for Chris Champbell!

steve reynolds: elkhart, in.: Go take what is yours!!!!I can not believe that we have not got the respect we deserve!. I hope we smash the Buckeyes! You are truly the finest team in college sports! Now, play like a champion and bring the title home! (I am a lifelong Detroit Lions fan and I think that Willis would look great in our uniform!!) (As would Romberg, Dorsey, @ Johnson)
