If PSU had beaten Pitt OSU may not be celebrating today. That's just what it is


If you had lost the Big 10 championship game, you'd be out.

The CFP is just as much bullshite as its predecessor.

Whatever. I won't watch until they clean up their criteria.

This, it was all created because they wanted to make sure all major conferences got treated evenly. There was no reason to get rid of the BCS rankings to fill out the playoff. That would have been great.

The BCS was completely fair IMO. It produced the best rankings. If they wanted to create a playoffs they should have kept the BCS and seeded teams based on the rankings.

OSU could have easily lost to Wisconsin.

So it worked out great.

You know how coaches like to schedule a record?

Now, if you are highly be ranked at the end, lose your last game on purpose if it helps you stay away from an extra tough game.

Why risk it?

If Penn state wanted to be in, they shouldnt havr lost to Michigan 49-10. Period. That game is why they are out of the CFP

So you think Western Michigan should be in? If it's only about math of course.

one loss vs two losses isn't "feelings" or "opinions". It's a statistical fact.

Both Western Michigan and Penn State were more deserving.




Only thing Western Michigan deserves is to get boatraced by Wisconsin in the Cotton Bowl.
