Another year, another January bowl for Ohio State. While Notre Dame fans are enjoying mediocrity for the 20th straight year, Ohio State is playing in relevant and superior bowl games.
Look for Ohio State to win its second in a row against the Overrated conference. OSU by 30.

Haha I don't mind it. I remember a few years ago a bunch of people were upset when FSU went to the Gator Bowl against WVU even though they didn't deserve it and went out and beat WVU by like 20. The better bowls will pretty much get whatever teams they want.

I believe those are just guidelines? Like PSU got passed up by quite a few bowls this year.SportsAndLady;1001590 wrote:Well I get that haha but is there not any affiliation of any sort? Aka big ten #4?

That number has never meant the 4th place team. It means that the bowl gets the 4th pick of Big Ten teams. They can choose whoever they want from whoever hasn't been selected ahead of them at that point.SportsAndLady;1001590 wrote:Well I get that haha but is there not any affiliation of any sort?

The same way every bowl game outside of the BCS Championship Game is matched:
By scheduling two teams who will buy tickets, fill hotel rooms and spend money like drunken sailors. If you believe otherwise, you are truly being foolish.

I hope Urban some how some way gets to start molding Braxton between now and then. Otherwise I don't feel good about this match up. Gators home game basically, they have every reason to be fired up ( beat the coach that recruited them, defend their home turf, they are accustomed to the climate, they drive from their parents house to stadium in an hour or so, ect.).

Ya, what an advantage. I mean, its so much more of an advantage than watching 12 games on tape of Florida this year!! :rolleyes:Speedofsand;1001501 wrote:Urban knows everything in Florida's book. He kept an office on campus this year, he can tell Fickell everything about Florida to win. Nice advantage.
