Ohio State Football This Year

Post by zimo »

Their win today got me thinking. If Ohio State runs the table and goes 12-0 they won't play in the Big Ten Championship or a bowl game. What if they are the only undefeated team in the country at the end of the year? Should/would pollsters award them the National Championship?

they aren't that good. Big Ten stinks this year and it will show in the bowls. They did mange to beat UCF, though

The Buckeyes are really hurting. Lost their QB today and have had to move one of their rb's to lb because they have so many injuries. If they win out then, yes they should be NC.

1 loss BCS champion will be voted #1 over Ohio State.

no way they go undefeated. They seem to have lost their starting QB and have a lot of fball left.

The best they can hope for is to go undefeated and get voted #1 by the AP if the winner of the BCS championship game has one or more losses. It would be a shared national title and I'm sure they'd be quick to claim it.

BCS human polls used are the Coaches Poll and the Harris Poll and both of those polls are required to vote the winner of the BCS National Championship game as the #1 team

Aggy would take a share of it also, somehow.
