It got ugly in here. To be fair, when first came here in 2011, I didnt have any problems with RA. He just has a major opinion about a few things. I don't think any of us should take what he's saying too personal. People are always going to attack tOSU, and that at least means we're relevant.

We all know the BIG sucks, and that tOSU has more to prove. It's too bad our SOS isn't stronger, but it isn't anything to get upset about if someone calls your team out.

Also, I believe Wisconsin is underrated and a solid team.

Big Ten undefeated/untied seasons (post-WWII):

Ohio State - 2012
Ohio State - 2002 (NC)
Michigan - 1997 (NC)
Northwestern - 1995
Ohio State - 1968 (NC)
MSU - 1966
MSU - 1965 (NC - Coaches)
Ohio State - 1954 (NC)
Michigan - 1948 (NC)
Michigan - 1947 (NC)


And those Northwestern and MSU teams were only undefeated and untied in conference, not for the whole season. That's 10 teams that have ever gotten through the Big Ten conference season undefeated, and 7 teams in the Big Ten that have ever gone undefeated for a season. Most of them playing fewer than 12 games, of course.

But yeah, it's not impressive at all.

Forgot Iowa in 02... :) and PSU in 94.

Obviously an undefeated season is impressive, but finally having a Conference Championship game will make most likely make these occurrences even more rare.

To me, no Conference Champ game, or having to play a true round robin makes it lose it's luster just a little

going through the Big 10 undefeated is unimpressive.

anyone care to guess which "new" BIG team has never gone through a BIG season undefeated?

I can agree with this. I'm really glad we added it and hope we never go back. I have to imagine the ultimate design will have all 5 BCS conferences with a CCG.

Yeah that's right... I guess you guys only lost to Iowa State. Seriously, how?

Well to be fair ISU was pretty good that year ( 9-3 I think??) but we did blow a 24-7 halftime lead LOL.

That had the potential to be a cluster at the end of the year. Ohio State and Iowa both undefeated along with Miami. If I had to guess I would have thought Iowa would have been the one to play Miami. What would have been. Lol.
