It is a home and home series so USC comes to the 'Shoe in 2009

I hope the writers strike gets settled. Even the BCS Championship game was a rerun, at least from the OSU perspective.

I got smart and called it a night at the half.

I watched American Gladiators...

Was a bit more exciting than the game

Re: BCS National Championship Game
 

Sorry, can't resist a college football thread.

-USC may be the best team in the nation right now, however, under the current system they do not deserve any share of the championship.

Don't lose at home to Stanford.

-Ohio State was again unmasked as being no match for an SEC team. However, this ain't like it's OSU's first trip around the block. They'll be back.

With Rodriguez going to Michigan, perhaps the Big 10 will learn how to defend faster offenses.

-LSU defensive coordinator Bo Pelini is back at my school (Nebraska), and we're very excited to have him.

Playing devil's advocate, I think you could make a better argument for Kansas to win the National Championship than USC. At least KU only has one loss.

As it is, why cry about it? It won't change a thing.

Re: BCS National Championship Game
 

its OH - NO now haha!

Ohio State didn't beat a team ranked in the top 20 all year, there cupcake schedule and not playing the final week silver spoon fed them the #1 ranking. I'm sick of hearing of Ohio State blah blah they for the 2nd year in a row got waxed by a much better team! But they still managed #5 in the final rundown ahead of Kansas just can't understand.


We need a 32 team playoff! :thumb:

Re: BCS National Championship Game
 

Being an SC fan made OSU not score against Illinois for an entire half of football? Being an SC fan broke Booty's hand? The only thing worse than a homer is a crying homer who has to reach to take shots at better teams.

Do you read what you write to ensure coherency? :rolleyes:

Re: BCS National Championship Game
 

But then the players would be forced to try to study for final exams right in the middle of the playoffs. The meat grinder that is major college football already makes it hard enough for these kids to make any kind of meaningfull progress towards getting a degree. This sure wouldn't make it any easier for them.

And it would take a ton of meaning away from college football's regular season. Michigan's loss to App. State might not mean a hill of beans if we had a 32-team playoff.

Re: BCS National Championship Game
 

Even if there was a playoff system ohio state would still either not make it or would not win. They cannot win the big games with no speed. Michigan had the same problem with faster teams like oregon, appalachian state just to name two. At best the big ten is the forth or fifth best conference in the county.
