Don't worry Ohio State

[allvol123]

Yeah, I bet Jim Tessel lies in bed at night petrified about playing South Carolina. I bet he's glad he's plying the other USC instead next year.

Never said anything about Tresel. You were making fun of the "murderer's row". A row that includes a team that beat OSU twice in 2 years.

 

[Fine Vol]

The 2002 Ohio State team beat a great Miami team. The 2006 Ohio State team got annihilated by a merely very good Florida team. There's no comparision.

I hope Tebow can forgive you :whistling:

 

[VolinArizona]

USC played a weaker regular season schedule than OSU.

USC played 3 teams with a winning record going 2-1

While OSU played 6 winning teams with a record of 5-1.

Wait, are you talking about 2007 and USC, as in Southern Cal?

If so, you're insane. Southern Cal's schedule >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Ohio State's schedule

 

[OWB]

So hat, let me ask you this. Do you think that Ohio State deserved to be in the NC game this year? Throw out the BCS formula, if you could have personally chosen 2 teams at the end of regular season, would OSU have been one of them?

 

[StunnA N' Orange]

Yeah, those perennial powers at South Carolina, Vanderbilt, and Kentucky are just a murderer's row.

No easier than Minnesota, Northwestern, and Purdue.

 

[hatvol96]

I bet Northwestern, Indiana, and Minnesota have been in as many bowls in the last decade as Kentucky, South Carolina, and Vanderbilt.

Correct, Scar is in the SEC

 

[VolinArizona]

Probably so. Doesn't really matter, because, IMO, it's easier to become bowl eligible in the B10.

 

[StunnA N' Orange]

Watch out for that Northwestern, Minnesota, and Indiana stretch.

Indiana actually made a bowl this year. And just for good measure, OSU is 0-2 against the Mighty Gamecocks from Columbia.

 

[Fine Vol]

LSU and USCwest are the two best

 

[hatvol96]

Ohio State had fewer losses than any other major conference team. They also didn't have a loss to a Stanford or a South Carolina on their resume. Do I think they were one of the two best teams? No. But their resume was one of the two best.

They probably have as many or more wins over OSU than NW, IN, and Minnesota do.

LSU didn't have a loss to South Carolina...

But your point is taken.

 

[hatvol96]

LSU was in the National Championship game.

If they played UT's schedule, I doubt they only lose 1...

He's talking to the nutsos that think UGA should have played for the NC.

 

[tvolsfan]

Oh... Forgot about Georgia...

 

[Fine Vol]

USC is really good, dumb loss or not.

 

[tvolsfan]

He's talking to the nutsos that think UGA should have played for the NC.

That argument ends at second in their own division of the SEC.

 

[VolinArizona]

Anyway, tOSU does schedule well OOC, just not this year. Tressel, IMO, is top 3 of NCAA coaches with Carroll and Stoops.

 

[hatvol96]

Tennessee navigated their schedule with 3 regular season losses. Ohio State would not have been beaen by Cal or Alabama.

So was UT in 2001. Too bad we squibbed that kickoff to UGA. Tough nuts.

I think Meyer is up there... Not just based on what he has done at Florida.

 

[tvolsfan]

But they could certainly lose at Florida, and Georgia could have beaten them, too...
