Viola73 Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 In honor of them having NEVER defeated an SEC team in a bowl......Funny coming from a man whose team1) Lost to a Sun Belt team this year2) Paid their coach slightly under a million per victory this season3) Is years away from even receiving the privilege of playing a Big Ten side in a major or semi-major bowl (and possibly being OSU's first victory over the SEC in a Bowl setting).4) Did we mention the whole "lost to a Sun Belt team" thing? How about the fact that said Sun Belt team was one of only two teams to lose to a North Texas team that was one of the worst in I-AAnd who did Ohio State lose to in the Championship...oh yeah a team that:1) Lost to a Sun Belt team this year2) Paid their coach slightly under a million per victory this season3) Is years away from even receiving the privilege of playing a Big Ten side in a major or semi-major bowl (and possibly being OSU's first victory over the SEC in a Bowl setting).4) Did we mention the whole "lost to a Sun Belt team" thing?

andrewharrington Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 I'll give you they came in unprepared, choked and were the victim of Chris Leak's one perfect game as a four year starter in 2007, but they were preparing for the Rose Bowl after their season ended, were given a title shot due to losses in the season's final weekend and went into the the other team's backyard as a 4 point dog. On top of that, they played a pretty good game except for those six 15 yard penalties, dropped TD pass and horrendous interceptions.

However, as schedules are typically widely different in quality, and records aren't necessarily the best indicators of who is better, rankings are somewhat meaningless once you determine who is playing in this game.However...LSU was the 5 1/2 point favorite, and I, like many others, picked LSU in that game. Given that most people outside of Ohio had LSU winning, and LSU was the favorite, I'm not sure how Ohio State "choked" in this game.

infrared41 Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 I love how people use the 0-9 against SEC schools as some sort of meaningful stat. That's 0-9 vs. various teams with different coaches and players. I don't understand what a 1979 Ohio State team has to do with a 2007 one? I could understand if you were 0-9 vs the same team in a conference and both teams had the same coaching staffs or one team did, but the use of this pointless stat shows how people use stats to make an argument seem valid. Now if you said that Jim Tressel coached teams are 0 for whatever then you have a valid argument. That would be like saying that because team A beat team B 10 times from 1956-1966 has a bearing on the two teams meeting this weekend.Agreed, that's why this whole Ohio St bashing because they lost the last coulpe of years is quite lame. And I'm not even a fan of OSU.As I said in another thread...That 0-9 vs. The SEC is for Bowl games and it dates back to at least 1978. How the Buckeyes of 1978 apply today is anyone's guess. It's like wondering how The 2007 Royals can suck so bad because they won the World Series in 1985. But on topic, even I have to admit, the logo is pretty witty. Lighten up Buckeye fans, based on our performance in the past two title games we probably deserve getting some from other fans. What kills me is that a lot of the is coming from fans of the other 116 D-1 teams that didn't play for the title in the past two seasons.Ya gotta get there before you can lose one kids...

Cola Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 Why are Ohio State fans coming to the rescue? Why can't you just admit you are no match for SEC football? Its okay to admit it...everyone else does, too. I honestly don't think OSU would even finish in the top 3 of the SEC itself.The National Championship should basically just be the SEC Championship game...but from now on, at least, the SEC Champ should automatically get a bid to the MNC.Jim Tressel;s Bowl record is quite good actually. OSU just got blown out the last two years. It happens.Now if OSU had won, the media would be praising OSU for doubting their naysayers and rising above all the negative press and saying how the SEC isn't that great of a conference and the Big 10 is really on an upswing. The media just makes me sick.If if's and but's were candy and nuts, it'd be one hell of a Merry Christmas! And if your momma had nuts, she'd be your daddy!
