Let me get this straight. Indiana’s best win was a mediocre Michigan. So OSU’s only other decent win other than Indiana was penn state, whose only remotely notable win was Illinois. Well, OSU sure isn’t as battle tested as we are that’s for sure. That’s saying alot with the cupcakes we had scheduled this year between sec games.

Drives me nuts. They justify putting Ohio over us because they beat two ranked teams

But those two ranked teams have played/beaten no one…

That is what I’ve been saying for weeks now.

I get why Bama wants to switch to an easier OOC schedule if a weaker schedule can’t hurt you to get a playoff spot.

Not saying Bama deserved a spot. Im more bitter at how wacky the seeding was

Did you look at Bama’s OOC schedule? What a joke! Wisconsin was their toughest game. How much easier could it get?

Josephs and Pearce would make that Indiana LT quit football. How is this team in the playoffs?

Was their strength of schedule the worst of all the playoff teams? I know it had to be close. Didn’t know if it was worse than Boise or Arizona STs though

I think only Boise was worse

Looked it up and that was true. All those other side of the bracket teams are in the 60s. Terrible setup

Again, I didn’t say Bama deserves a spot

But in the future Bama has Notre Dame and Ohio State scheduled for OOC games. Since the playoff committee has rewarded teams with mediocre schedules to this extent, there is absolutely no benefit to having a tough OOC schedule, especially when you are in the SEC

That’s the problem that the committee has created.

Ohio State only ran for 115 on Indiana.

Notre Dame has already got 133.

Interesting.

I know OSU has more talent on paper than us, but the more I think about it the more I’m ready for them to bring it on.

The only thing that worries me is our refusal to blitz. We outright would not do it against Georgia. Howard will make us pay for giving him time. If we can get pressure I like our chances.

I believe the numbers show he's a better qb when blitzed. We need to get pressure with 4

Interesting. Kind of strange when you haven’t played a team in nearly three decades. Don’t really know what to expect or how you match up.
