September 13, 200917 yr I'm sure. OSU plays a big game out of conference............................................... Let's just say I had faith in your boys. Still doesn't mean they were overrated. Your eating crow IMO. They are #8 and played with a #3 team in the nation. They did what they were supposed to. If they'd lost by a ton then they would be overrated.
September 13, 200917 yr Author What exactly about Notre Dame being ranked is "a joke"? They have a pretty good team this year and deserved to be right around where they were this week - no higher. Clausen played a great game. Forcier is a stud - you'll be seeing his name quite a bit for a while. Michigan is on the come back and good for them. I am a ND fan, but they flat out lost today to a team that played a better game, I'm disappointed but not going to make excuses. Every game that ND or OSU loses there will always be a thread about how they are overrated. These threads are a dime a dozen. Let's see, they came off a 7-6 season preceeded by a 3-8 season. No reason for them to be ranked. If the same players wore Maryland uniforms they would not be ranked.

If they'd lost by a ton then they would be overrated. Eating crow? That's a laugher. Home field and could not stop a 90 yard drive lead by a true freshman. Another big game choke by Tressel. Championship teams don't celebrate moral victories.
September 13, 200917 yr Author After watching the game today, perhaps Michigan is a little underrated. They beat a mediocre team with an idiot for a coach.

Championship teams don't celebrate moral victories. Let me ask you this. Had USC not won this game, had the drive stalled midway through and OSU had won, would you have tried to tell me that USC was overrated for a 5 point loss to the #8 team in the nation?

Championship teams don't celebrate moral victories. You said they were overrated. As the season goes along they may prove you right, but tonight's game did not show they are overrated.
September 13, 200917 yr Besides what has already been said IMO I think if Tressel does not learn how to win the big/nationaly televised games he is going to get Tubbied in Columbus.
September 13, 200917 yr Author You said they were overrated. As the season goes along they may prove you right, but tonight's game did not show they are overrated. I stand corrected OSU is great. As long as they don't venture outside the Big Ten and the MAC they will be fine. Care to come to the aid of the Fighting Irish and the fat guy? And by the way OSU was a 2 point conversion from going to OT with Navy. So yes they are overrated.
September 13, 200917 yr After watching the game today, perhaps Michigan is a little underrated. I think you might be right. Young QB makes them a different team IMO. I thought Claussen looked really good too. Honestly that's as good as I've seen ND look in a long time. Suprised their WR went out when the game was on the line. Really I was dissapointed. Obviously it must have been a lot worse injury than it looked. ND choked in their play calling I thought with just over 2 minutes left too play.

And by the way OSU was a 2 point conversion from going to OT with Navy. So yes they are overrated. This was your original post in the thread. Your first example is taking place in Ann Arbour. Your second example is getting ready to start in Columbus. Year in and year out. You were talking about tonight's game in Columbus. The Buckeyes did nothing tonight to prove they are overrated. You were wrong. It's ok, admit it. I know it's not the first time for you. I can't count the times I know you've been wrong. Just be man enough to admit, and eat your plate of crow.
September 13, 200917 yr So they lose by 3 points to the #3 rated team, and their overrated? Please explain. :idunno: Exactly....IMO is plain to see the author needs to belly up to a plate of crow on this one. I still fail to see the point in the thread at all but I guess that is just me :idunno:. As a mater fo fact, I'm even more suprised that I bothered to post on it again. :ohbrother: :lol:...............Carry on K.D. :walk:

September 13, 200917 yr You're going to try to sell me that OSU is overrated at #8 when they just lost by 3 to USC? You know, I'm not a OSU fan, and in fact have a huge dislike for them, but some of you guys are waaaaay over the top to the point of insanity. You really think OSU is overrated after that game? Still doesn't mean they were overrated. Your eating crow IMO. They are #8 and played with a #3 team in the nation. They did what they were supposed to. If they'd lost by a ton then they would be overrated. All of you all do realize that the #8 team in the country lost on their home field to a team playing a true freshman. I mean going into the game their ranking was only 5 spots off, so if your at home you think that team should be able to win that game if both teams are top ten teams. So yeah I think its very easy to say that OSU is overrated, and honestly I think you can say that USC probably right now is overrated to. They are not your normal USC team this year. They are still a great team, however at this time I really don't think they are the third best team in the country. There really should be no rankings until like after the 4th week of the year.
