Only dumbasses are arguing against Ohio State's strength of schedule. In fact their résumé is better than Bama's.

But if you don't see how the committee might put Penn St (won conf and h2h) over Ohio State, then Idk what to tell you.

You could tell me you understand the teams aren't close and only a retarded mosquito couldnt foresee a #2 team beating the #3 team then dropping 3 spots

The only thing left for PSU to do is beat Wisconsin on a neutral field but OSU alread beat them in Madison off a bye week where Wisconsin had twice as long to prepare

They're not dropping this week.
They could next week.

Agree completely. I'm personally extremely confident in Ohio State's chances because I think Penn State is a fraud that will get handled by Wisconsin. I'm not worried about them taking Wisconsin to the woodshed by any means.




I would guess that most committee members see Penn St similarly -- maybe not a fraud but merely a solid Top25 team with one big upset but one that would more likely be 9-3 or 8-4 if they'd faced a couple of more Top25 teams.


That's also the small danger for Ohio State though in that it leaves a lot of room for Penn State to change that impression against Wisconsin.

I laid out on how I could see the committee could put Penn State ahead of Ohio State.

Regardless, the 2014 TCU comparison is stupid and lazy. The situations aren't comparable by any means.

Alabama is in win or lose.

Clemson is in with a win.

Washington is in with a win.

Penn St is in with a win. Ohio St goes in as BIG rep if Penn St loses but eliminated if Penn St wins. Wisky is already eliminated by virtue of h2h loss to OSU. BIG deserves a representative this year.

Oklahoma St is in with a win and loss by Clemson since they lost to a ranked Baylor team and had one win taken away. OU is eliminated by virtue of loss to Ohio St

Colorado is on the bubble with a win and losses by the win-to-be-in group. Wisky or OU may get a reprieve if they win out and the ones ahead of them lose but Ohio St gets in ahead of any of these three

The only reason people are using TCU 2014 is because you guys act like there's no chance Ohio State could be leapfrogged. The committee has proven time and time again that rankings are only a weekly thing and that if you're not on the field, you are prone to being bumped.


TCU beat Iowas State in their last game in 2014. Ohio State beat #3 Michigan in their last game this year. There's no comparison between the two final wins that makes them remotely close.

Bama and OSU are in no matter what

Clemson is in with a win

Washington is in with a win unless Penn St or Wisconsin blows out the other

Agreed that if Penn State wins, Ohio State is eliminated (unless of course an upset(s) happen with Clemson/Washington and a scenario plays out where both PennSt/OhioSt get in).

OhioSt fans need to be rooting hard for Wiscy
