But their conference championship was better than anything tOSU had done. I'm not a fan of the "best loss" camp. Penn State achieved more than tOSU.

If you reversed tOSU and PSU, tOSU would have still gone. You can't possibly argue against that, can you?

LSU and Bama were head and shoulders over everyone else in college football that year. Regardless, that shouldn't have happened IMO. However, they aren't the ones that got shut out either.
