Is it time to give Ohio State some respect?

Idk, but the team in first place in the SEC East lost to Indiana.

Why can't the SEC East put out a good football team?? The West is ridiculous!

In before someone mentions Indiana.

Edit: Whoops, too late. :L

Thread tries to give Ohio State some credit.

Texas and B1G fans immediately pounce on the SEC. :L

Right now you have quality wins over Michigan State and Minnesota with the possibility of beating Wisconsin in the CCG. If Minnesota loses at least 1 game (which they likely will) against Wisconsin and Nebraska that quality win disappears. If Minnesota beats Wisconsin and loses to Nebraska you could potentially only end up with 1 quality win for the season.

I think Minny has played "out of their heads" this year. Having said that, I don't think they can beat Wisconsin. They may have a shot against Nebraska, but even then I think their chances are slim to none.

IMO, the B1G is WEAK, and probably deserves to be ignored for the playoffs this year. If OSU wins out, and beats a ranked Wisconsin team, they may have an argument...especially if MissSt loses another game.

I feel very dirty saying this, as I hate Ohio State, but they did beat a very good Michigan State team. The combined records of their opponents (counting this weeks game against Indiana) is 57-52. That only leaves two top 25 wins on their schedule (#11 MSU, #25 Minny).

VaTech really screwed them in more than one way. First, by beating them in Columbus, and second by sucking for most of the season this year, thus making it a "bad loss". I think an argument can be made, but I don't see how they leapfrog any of the teams in front of them without those teams losing a game....or two.

All you guys can suck it.

It won't matter because they aren't going to beat us in the B1G Championship. The only good thing on their resume is that Michigan State win. Michigan State's only good win is that near-collapse over Nebraska. And last week, we all saw where Nebraska stood against a healthy Badgers team. If they beat us with a healthy Melvin and the same guys we have today, then they'll have a playoff case, but e aren't there yet.

It was an impressive win for Ohio State. The problem is that Ohio State fans think no one else has won a big game this season.

Sorry, you don't get a playoff spot. Try harder next year.



I don't think that.


I am sure you are hoping and praying we don't get a playoff spot. Unfortunately for you, just saying it doesnt' mean it won't happen.

Right. Except I've never said anything even close to that before. :der:

Your hatred of Ohio State is some of the funniest stuff here on SportsHoopla.

Are you kidding? We're all DYING to see Ohio State get a playoff spot.

I want Oregon vs. Bama and Ohio State vs. Miss. State. :hope:

Gonna need help to pass any of the current top 4. However, should one of those 4 slip up, I think Ohio State has a pretty decent shot at passing up both the B12 schools to get in.

So you admit that they have in fact beaten someone.

Glad I could change your mind.

I think OSU has a chance at making the playoffs. It all depends on what everyone else does. They do not control their own destiny, the VT ass raping saw to that.
