But there's an even worse possibility... if ND loses there is a strong chance we have another all SEC title game because of the the over ranking and lack of punishing SEC teams for losing.

Well no shit considering that's how the Championship was determined then. Now? Not so much.karen lotz;1323192 wrote:Michigan fans in the mid 90s?

This year without a doubt. But don't count on it. The Buckeyes could go 12-0 and go out with a dominating win over Michigan but the sportswriters will still give the AP NC to an SEC team or Notre Dame even if every team has a loss except the Buckeyes.ccrunner609;1323202 wrote:A team that cant win the real one.

You're right, and IMO, that's okay. OSU's 12-0 record would set the tone for next season, when our record will actually count for something.believer;1323207 wrote:This year without a doubt.

It's almost guaranteed.
I'm sure most fans didn't care too much as long as there were other undefeated teams. But I'm sure some fans (like yourself) will start to dislike the fact OSU is ineligible this season (as the # of undefeated teams dwindle) as it takes away from the quality of BCS games as OSU is clearly a good team this year. Yes they have flaws, but apparently everyone else does as well.Crimson streak;1323211 wrote:Am I the only non Ohio state fan that hates that Ohio st in ineligible this year. Imagine a notre dame Ohio state national title game. It would be insane amount of money and ratings. This board would blow up lol sucks it can't happen, but might not be so far fetched to happen even next year or 2 years from now

Because split titles make the BCS look retarded, and that's always a good time. Even though the AP title is pretty much irrelevant, one of the things the BCS sold itself on in the beginning was avoiding split titles.GoChiefs;1323190 wrote:Why? Who gives a shit about being the AP Champs?
Or a more likely scenario (and similar to last year)--I don't see Oregon jumping Florida. So we could have a completely offensively inept team that didn't win their division title playing for a national championship.Ironman92;1323481 wrote:

People who aren't really fans. Like the "OSU" guy CCrunner who's probably losing interest in football because it's time to cheer on DOOK basketball.GoChiefs;1323190 wrote:Why? Who gives a shit about being the AP Champs?
Sleeper, you love chaos. Even if no one cares about the AP, a split title would be awesomely chaotic.sleeper;1323228 wrote:No one cares about the AP.
