Game Thread: Big 10 Championship: (6) Wisconsin vs (7) Penn State 8PM EST Fox

If Penn State wins I would vote this:

1 Alabama
2 Clemson
3 Washington
4 Penn St

Totally agree. I'm tired of OSU being penciled in. Are they one of the 4 best teams in terms of talent? Probably. However, they lost head to head. If it were best 4 teams then why even play the games, let's just give it to the top recruiting classes!

UW, what in the mother fuck are you on? They are in, it's ohia state that needs to sweat.

No, they weren't (until tonight). They were going to take tOSU no matter what. The argument would be that the Big 10 is so much better than the Pac 12 that the champ and a second team would be taken due to the quality of the conference, because they don't want to look like assholes. But the worst thing you can do for your case is to give up a ton of points. And that's what both teams are doing tonight.

Uh oh, better not invite Clemson, they're involved in a WAC-esque 42-35 championship game

The other game is a shootout also.

Which part is funny?

FUCK! That's it, the playoffs will be cancelled. Just go ahead and award Bama and Ohio State a split championship

 

[cowboys5xsbs]

This has been a great game

You thinking Penn State has any chance at making the playoffs.

We should have expected this. Either team drinking the kool-aid after a win here. But you had to blow them out if you ever had a chance.

If Clemson loses it make the decision easy for the committee. They could then let Ohio St and the winner of this game into the playoffs.

Score a TD.

Go for 2.

Be a man!

Come on what? In what world does OSU deserve a spot over PSU? I know they are better than them talent wise and would beat them 8 of 10 times, but they didn't, they lost the game, didn't win the conference or the division, if PSU wins they belong, if not I say OSU over Wisconsin.

They beat Ohio St. If they win Ohio St's conference then there should be no question that they are in.

By your logic of why even play the games and just give it to the top recruiting class, why even play the early games if they don't count?

Pitt L 42-39
Michigan L 49-10

 

[cwerph]

oooo 4th and 1. Let's have a "bad" spot, please.

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

4th and short, minute left...

Outstanding game except for the total lack of efence

 

[Shanemansj13]

We got an Ohio St-Michigan 4th and 1 here

Is Mark Dantonio in the Wisconsin booth?

You have to play all the games for a reason. Sorry, but a close win vs an otherwise unblemished Ohio State gets you nowhere.
