Hate to say it but Ohio State might get clobbered tonight. Gotta a bad feeling about things. Georgia are the badasses of CFB right now.

Buckeyes gotta play a near perfect game to pull off the upset.
wont be easy, that's for sure....but FWIW I think we have a better shot tonight than i did before we played Bama in 2014-15

Heard Mayan Williams is playing so that's a good thing.

Georgia got the short end of the stick.

Your reward for earning number 1 seed:

Ohio State.

And Michigan gets TCU.

Doesn’t seem right to me.

way we played them in 2019 (assuming you mean, Oregon, correct?) I thought a decent chance to win in 2020. If you mean Bama in 2020 with all the guys out and their talent I did not think we had much of a chance.

Bama in 2020 yes

Was just happy to beat Clemson

Had no confidence against Bama

Totally agree. And I say this from a UGA standpoint. Not because I don't want OSU to have to face them. could make a strong case OSU resume as good as TCU so seemed like maybe they should not have forced the #1 seed to play the tougher team.....IF the committee agreed.

I definitely think OSU is the better team.

But also guessing they would prefer to avoid the Big 10 rematch until the Championship if at all possible.

Like how the NCAA basketball committee never puts conference opponents on the same half of the bracket, unless entirely unavoidable.

could be the rationale for sure but as you said...kind of unfair to UGA.

Isn't to say they couldn't wipe the floor with us. I have no idea what will happen tonight.

It is also impossible to say.

Outside of Michigan and OSU, these teams play such different schedules it is impossible to compare until you see them on the field.

Yes...which is why I think in most seasons it's crazy to say one conference is far better than another (could be some years we might have a better idea but not lately). so few games played among the different conferences, how could we know...especially before bowl season?
