December 2, 200718 yr So you're equating displeasure with Ohio St. backing into the title game with physical violence? And then breaking it down into collegiate regions? Classy. I'm sure he was joking.
December 2, 200718 yr Thank you LRCW I was only joking. I am new here and just blown away at the hate towards OSU. I am done with OSU threads, it's not worth it.
December 2, 200718 yr Author Thank you LRCW I was only joking. I am new here and just blown away at the hate towards OSU. I am done with OSU threads, it's not worth it. You'll earn a lot more respect by sticking it out and taking your lumps. It's all about getting your hands dirty against the best possible competition.
December 2, 200718 yr It's kind of like lining up two runners and forcing one to do hurdles while the other gets a straight sprint. Conference championship games have nothing to do with it, IMO. OSU has no obstacles anywhere. Ok, aside from the fact that Michigan is NEVER an obstacle (just like Pitt is never an obstacle, or OU is never an obstacle), think about what your saying. Every coach in America makes his or her own non-conference schedule. They all had equal opportunity to do what OSU did. Don't compliment OSU like that, they aren't that smart in Columbus........
December 2, 200718 yr Thank you LRCW I was only joking. I am new here and just blown away at the hate towards OSU. I am done with OSU threads, it's not worth it. Outside of Ohio do expect there to be an Ohio St. love fest?
December 2, 200718 yr Outside of Ohio do expect there to be an Ohio St. love fest? Again what bothers me is the hate towards OSU. I am a fan of college football. I have several teams I like and when people start passionately hating other schools, thats when they need to take a step back. It's a game. One that we have no control over.

Yes, but some of them, like Auburn a few years ago, get punished for soft-scheduling. OSU got lucky that no one else was good enough to make them pay for their scheduling sins.
December 2, 200718 yr I hope some coach from another conference begs like the Georgia coach is right now but sort of like the Gators coach did last season. I doubt this happens because most coaches have more class than that.

I think hate is an overused word. I think dislike is more like it. Take it as a compliment. If OSU wasn't so good year in and year out nobody would care.

I have several teams I like and when people start passionately hating other schools, thats when they need to take a step back. It's a game. One that we have no control over. Then you're severely overestimating the hate. Ohio St. is in the cellar of teams I like, but you won't find me losing a bit of sleep over it. Some of us are entertained with arguments, especially considering the other options tonight. Trust me, my blood pressure isn't going up. :lol:
December 2, 200718 yr Yes, but some of them, like Auburn a few years ago, get punished for soft-scheduling. OSU got lucky that no one else was good enough to make them pay for their scheduling sins. Hey. They know how to get to the Championship game using the current system. Other teams need to start taking notice.
December 2, 200718 yr Someone had the bright idea to recall the OSU/Mich thread from last year. Funny you should mention that. Last year OSU was the team that everyone in America was touting as a slam dunk National Champ. Some team from Florida backed into the title game and changed those plans. Now whomever is slated to play OSU will be the slam dunk national champ here on BGP. OSU is just "lucky to be there", and there are hundreds of more qualified teams. Yes, yes, I seem to remember this all before from somewhere, it's all coming back now.
December 2, 200718 yr Author I think hate is an overused word. I think dislike is more like it. Take it as a compliment. If OSU wasn't so good year in and year out nobody would care. Nah, it's just part of the insidious, broad-based anti-OSU conspiracy. Similar to the one against UK hoops.
December 2, 200718 yr I hope some coach from another conference begs like the Georgia coach is right now but sort of like the Gators coach did last season. I doubt this happens because most coaches have more class than that. Going on the arguement of OSU was third in the BCS rankings why shouldnt Georgia be the other team?
