No they didnt. The teams have to be equal and they werent, they explained it on the show. Penn St having two losses was the difference and that blowout loss against Michigan was a backbreaker as well. H2H and conference championships are only a tiebreaker for equal teams, which they werent equals

Wrong. The term in the guidelines is 'comparable'. The term 'equal' was available, and specifically not chosen. There's a reason for that.

Penn State would get slaughtered by Alabama. Ohio State is the only one who has a snowballs chance in hell at beating BAMA

First, I tend to think that's true. Second, most people including me would have said Penn State would get slaughtered by Ohio State.

Do you not see that you can be wrong? That's why they play the games. Except the Penn State-Ohio State game didn't matter.

funny. last year Big money MSU went over OSU.

terrible representation of the Big 10 last year. MSU "earned" it, but OSU was the better team.
Then tell Ohio State to stop shitting the bed every single year to inferior talent.

yea and bad weather had absolutely nothing to do with how they played........
Man, it's great that only Ohio State played in the shitty weather and Michigan State got warm weather and beautiful fields to play in, just like last year.

In a playoff setting I don't see it. Bama turns it on in big stage games. Too much speed. Too much size. Too much everything.

The one thing Ohio State would have going for it that others would not is it's defensive depth. The games I've watched of Alabama this year it looks like their offense relies on the the opposing defense getting tired bc Bama's D is so dominant. Ohio State rotates a lot on defense. Still wouldn't feel very confident on playing the Tide this year and none of it matters if Ohio State can't beat Clemson which is also a very real possibility

Entirely possible. Can you elucidate?

I said that my opinion agrees with Brasky's with respect to Penn State losing to Alabama if they played. (Since they haven't played, it's just opinion, based on observations).

Brasky said that as some sort of justification for the Committee's selecting Ohio State over Penn State (I am not implying it was the only justification proffered).

I said that most of us would have said that Ohio State would demolish Penn State as well; the point being that you don't actually know, and the Penn State-Ohio State game was a good illustration of how we can be mistaken.

What's so strange about that?
