Is it time to give Ohio State some respect?

So you admit that they have in fact beaten someone.

Glad I could change your mind.

How many times do we have to congratulate you on that impressive win?

Now please go hang your hat on it and let us get back to talking about the best teams in the nation.

Ebbs and flows man. That is cfb.

You can't tell me Florida will stay down long.

Is the sec west that great? Bama is. Miss State and Ole Miss are very good. Other than that ??

Nothing.

C'mon now, when was the last time Kentucky, Vanderbilt, or Tennessee had a legit program? Even Georgia or SCAR hasn't won much of anything the past decade (Conference titles, BCS bowl games, National titles, etc.). Florida stands alone as the only good team from the East the past 10 years IMO, and they've been bad for the past 2 years. Even a middle of the pack B12 team like Missouri has already won an SEC East title in it's first few years in the SEC East.

The West has had Auburn, LSU, and Alabama all play or win national titles over the past 5-6 years. To have Miss St. and Ole Miss step up this year, just makes it worse. Perhaps they will fall to the earth next year, but to the SEC East is bad right now, especially compared to the West, and I'm not sure why that is debatable. Fortunately for the East, Auburn and LSU look really bad now (although they both have looked pretty good for much of the season up until now).

Thread tries to give Ohio State some credit.

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

Excuse me but I have said nothing negative about the SEC. So don't say B1G fans as if to say all fans of that conference. Although your never ending anti Buckeye rants are not only funny but getting a bit disturbing due to how often you have some negative to say about Ohio State or even the conference in general.

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.

I think the B1G championship game is a HUGE help for Ohio State (if they can win). Not having a B12 title game will hurt them IMO. Regardless, I think losing by a significant margin, at home, to a 5-5 team is going to keep them from being in the discussion, unless a few teams lose the next 2 weeks.

Any one of those teams is good enough to waltz into the Big House and take Michigan to the woodshed.

Yep, the VT loss is just a killer.

Why you so mad?

Maybe if he didn't act like it never happened in his first post I wouldn't have even had to bring it up.

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:


NO WAY, do I want to see that. IMO, Miss St is the weakest of the playoff teams right now. Make OSU play Bama first round!

Danny Sheridan. On ESPN now. Like just now

Most accurate predictor in the cfb world followed by Phil Steele.

"Ohio State wins out, the B1G clout gets them in for sure."

"I put Mariota as a 6-1 favorite to win Heisman should Oregon win out."

"Early line predictions. TCU 6 over Texas, ohio 18 over Michigan, Oregon 14 over OSU, Bama 8 over Auby, Ole. Miss 3 over Miss St"

Oh that would be priceless too but Oregon vs. Bama would be even better. Ohio State can't hang with Bama but Oregon could potentially beat the dogshit out of them. :2cents:

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.

Ohio State will need some help from other teams losing if they want to make it in. If Mississippi or Bama lose another and the SEC East wins the SECCG Ohio State fans are probably going to be really happy. Also, don't forget there are two Big 12 1 loss teams in the mix who have better resumes than OSU both in terms of quality wins and who they lost to. Ohio State is kind of roaming around in purgatory with Georgia. They have a chance but a lot of things need to fall into place for it to happen.
