They spent half their games hanging on for dear life. They weren't some awful team, but I think they're the worst of the championship teams in the BCS era.The Big Ten wasn't as "weak" then as it's been lately. They still won all their games. Didn't 2007 LSU lose in OT to Kentucky and the week before the SECCG to Arkansas? 1998 UT barely won a few games like Syracuse, UF, and Arkansas. Not sure I'd call an undefeated NC who beat a great team in the NC game the worst when there's plenty of 1 loss champs to choose from.
There's a crapton of those Buckeyes in the NFL. They would destroy this year's Iowa team.
Maybe so, but I think that any other BCS champion, including the 2007 Tigers, could beat them on a neutral field.

I'd agree their resume isn't the worst, but I still think they would lose if they played the 2007 Tigers. Of course there's no way to prove that...I'd love to be able to make such matchups happen, but oh well. OSU, despite some close games, beat Miami. LSU lost to Arkansas and Kentucky. There needs to be a special BCS clause that says you cannot go to a BCS Championship if you lose to Kentucky.
I don't know about worst all time, but I think they were the worst of the era. The 2006 Gators may be up there. The championship game distracted people from the fact that they were also fortunate the entire year... They did however look completely different in the title game.That's fine you think that but the mark of a great team is winning, which they did every single game that year. They're not the greatest of all time but far from the worst.
