Badgers just beat this team by 14 points the same team that went to OT vs Penn St. Badgers are the first team to beat Minn by 14+ points since 2009. Only way teams score on the Badgers is with forced TO's, penalty or SPT's .

Badgers have only given up 3 TD's in which the opponent had to start in their own territory ALL SEASON. Penn St. relinquished that many in one game this year. LMAO

And Penn State beat OSU. How did the Badgers do against the Buckeyes? Yeah, they lost.

Oh sweet Jesus, okay you guys are right. Ohio State's 11-1 season is tainted by luck and other things and we should look past the 3 wins over current top 10 teams :rolleyes:

Don't you have to set a precedent? Shouldn't a conference championship matter over a subjective "who we think is better based on our opinion?"

If you are going to go by the eye test to determine who should get in, then IMO Michigan should get in over Ohio State. They LOOKED like the better team when they played today.

The bottom line is who won the game.

Shit I say Ohio State is nothing more than a top 20 team at best.

So then with that logic, if Penn State beats Wisconsin, they should get in over Ohio State because they won head to head right?

Yeah, I agree with that. But, think PSU and OSU will most likely both get in imo.

How do you put a team in that didn't play in their conference championship game OVER the team that won that game?

I just hope and pray that the committee is not as stupid as some of you here.

I would probably do that too. It would suck for Washington but it is what it is.

I think it sets a horrible precedent if Ohio State gets in OVER the Big Ten Champion. Especially if it is Penn State who beat them. If you want to put both of them because the Big Ten was that good this year at the top, then fine.

But how to you fail to put a team in that OUTRIGHT WON the best conference in the nation? How does that make sense?

I think it would set a horrible precedent for a 2 loss team to get in over a strong 1 loss team. W-L record plus SOS should be the 2 main factors.

But they would have played an extra game (the Championship game). A game Ohio State wasn't good enough to play in.

Think about that.

Now you are just going to strawman because your argument ran out of ideas.

Ran out of ideas?

I'm spitting straight logic and you just hate Ohio State enough that you're ignoring the facts.

Ohio State will be in the playoffs. There is ZERO question about it. They are in.

ah yes this all makes sense but nobody really has a clue. I say if Wisky beats Penn State who beat Ohio State they should be guaranteed to get in those are my thoughts. Also it took Ohio State 2 overtimes to beat a team that lost to Iowa at Iowa when we beat Iowa at Iowa so that should seal it

:hellno:

Your logic is that you think Ohio State should get in because they have a better resume. While right now they do, a win in the conference championship game would trump their resume.

I think you should have to win your conference, at minimum, to be in the playoffs... at least as long as it's only 4 teams. That makes the CCGs count for something.

So because PSU shit the bed OOC, they deserve to make the playoffs? That's an awfully arbitrary reason which has nothing to do with who played better.
How do you put a team in that didn't play in their conference championship game OVER the team that won that game?

I just hope and pray that the committee is not as stupid as some of you here.
Because they were better over the year? It's not really that hard to understand.
