Its rare for any team other than LSU and Bama in the SEC to beat a team OOC in the top 10. Yes Auburn did have the $180 man to help them that one year but they have not done much in the BCS era other than that.

the $180 man? lol... between auburn and ohio state, only one team went on probation due to actions from that season and it wasn't auburn.

as far as not much else in the BCS era... how about undefeated in 2004 and playing for another BCS title right now?

thank god ohio state played one top 20 team this year so we weren't stuck with the travesty of having ohio state play in the title game when they are nowhere near one of the two best or most accomplished teams in the country,

i think you've forgotten that ohio state has vacated that arkansas win.

and is it ohio state's "responsibility"? no... no more than it is boise state's or anybody else's. still doesn't change the fact that ohio state beating a top 10 team is a rare event given how "elite" their fanbase thinks they are.

oh, and oregon did not finish in the top 10 the year that ohio state beat them.

Oregon was ranked 7th
Arkansas was ranked 8th
Before each game was played and WON by Ohio State

So please shove all your boring ass posts straight up your pathetic ass.

You have nothing to offer but never ending stupid posts about your precious little rankings.

You are boring as shit let me know when it sinks in.

like i said, oregon did not finish the season in the top 10. not sure why you find this so hard to understand. the more data points we have, the more accurate our rankings will be. if you want to take rankings at the time of the game, then you probably think your win over northwestern was impressive. or la-monroe beat a top 10 arkansas team last season, right?

and ohio state vacated the game against arkansas.

got anything else?

enjoy your game against clemson. be careful though. they beat a ranked team this year. ohio state hasn't performed particularly well against teams like that in recent memory. then again, michigan state hadn't beaten a ranked team this season until yesterday and that didn't go well for the suckeyes either.

and btw, LOL at ohio state being out and auburn being in. good to see the BCS got it right. got to take it out of the hands of people who think beating 24 cupcakes in a row is impressive.

LMAO@ the biggest chokers in the BCS era. LMAO@ the biggest chokers of the last 45 years.

Did you mean to say that?

Most BCS bowl appearances: 9 (Ohio State). Most BCS bowl wins: 6 (Ohio State)

Yes, but Arkansas did not vacate the loss, so while Ohio State didn't "win", Arkansas did lose.

were we talking about Arkansas losing to Big 10 teams, or Ohio State winning against the SEC?

lol at all the ohio state fans that thought they were going to pasadena ahead of auburn.

Is Ohio State ever not in your head? Before you post the same stats that you've posted in every other thread note that I don't care. Just wondering how long you could go without tOSU on your mind

florida state is on my mind.

ohio state is in my rearview mirror. as they should have been for a couple of weeks, but some people think that teams that play an SEC schedule should be held to the same undefeated standard as playing a big 10 schedule.

lol @ ohio state.

If Ohio STate would have lost to Oregon and Arkasas would those teams have finished in the Top Ten?

The answer is yes.

But they got beat.

You really don't see how your precious rankings don't have anything to do with how good Ohio State is?

Yes the $180k man. You are right only one conference chose to ignore their own rules and not punish. That says alot about the SEC chosing to ignore rules to a team can play in the NC game. Slime conf. heads to help out slime players.

the same thing could be said for teams that other teams beat.

auburn still has 2 wins this year over the top 10.

if you want credit for a top 10 win in a bowl game, they should probably be top 5 or 6 before you play them.

or you better beat them earlier in the season and have them win their last several games.

So really you just proved my point. A team has no control for how or when their opponents are ranked.

Its all a matter of when you play them and what happens to other teams during each specific year. Teams that Ohio State has beat over the years have the exact same record as other teams that ended up in the top 10.

A top 12 team one year could actually be better than team that was ranked top 8 in another year.

So really the stat that you keep regurgitating like a psychopath is pretty meaningless.
