1 loss

In a conference title game

Against an equally ranked opponent

By a lesser margin than bama vs Auburn.

Yep.

The "we deserve a shot" was stupid. They had a shot. They lost the Iron Bowl knowing the division title was on the line.

It doesn't piss me off at all. After Iowa, I'll take an 11-2 season, a conference championship, and a NY6 bowl game.

Y'all have proven it twice with playoff appearances you didn't earn.

Today is another sad day for college football

My conclusion after all this: Ohio State/Wisky got screwed out of the playoff, the CFP criteria and bylaws clearly aren't relevant anymore, the committee is clearly willing to move the goal posts in terms of qualifications, and that all they care about is money and ratings as opposed to integrity. WEAK.

Well to be fair that's is an important factor... Nobody in the country wanted to see Clemson blowout OSU for the second straight year.........

Should not have been in last year over Pedo State for same reasons Gumps don't belong this year.

And don't confuse a favorable outcome as justifying an incorrect decision by the committee in 14

Umm this is nothing new. The committee was put in place just for this reason. What the hell does condoleeza rice or matt leinart know about picking the best teams.

No, not the same reasons.

They made the right decision, regardless of the outcome.

You can’t be pissed. Last year y’all benefitted from the exact scenario except worse. It’s funny, OSU fans are the only ones that can’t bitch. We’ll butch for u
