Yes he did. This whole team played with heart, we just ran into a team that played with it as well. Any idea on bowl scenarios?

After settling down, this loss is on Withers, Coombs, and Herman. 3 TD's givin' up by Barnett and Pitt Brown. Then terrible play calling.

Ohio State had better wins than FSU. Wisconsin is as good as Clemson. The B1G has better overall teams than the ACC.

The more I look at this game, the more I'm glad they lost this one instead of shitting the bed at the NCG.

Call me pessimistic, but I don't think our defense could stop Florida State.

OSU didn't lose today because of poor play calling or poor offensive production. They ran all over Michigan State's defense, which is what they obviously had planned to do.

This one is entirely on the defense. Shazier was playing out of his mind, but Barnett and the rest of the secondary were taking the day off. Again.

From what I've seen the past few weeks I can safely say OSU didn't deserve to play for the title, and I am glad they aren't. I'd rather them drop this one and crush Clemson or whoever in a BCS bowl.

Pessimistic? No. Realistic? Oh yeah.

Sure, there are rankings. Great. There's also some subjectivity here. I tend to judge a team by what they have DONE. So, Clemson is 10-2 and Wisconsin is 9-3. What has Clemson done?

No offense, but I think its absolutely stupid to say you wish OSU isn't' playing in the title game. Given an opportunity, anything can happen in a single game. You always want a chance! Especially when you have a month to prepare!

Other than that, I agree..this one is on the defense. If you said OSU would rush for what they did against MSU, I woulda said OSU wins going away. The defense just didn't step up. The first series was telling...MSU ran off like 7 min, OSU had two poor defensive penalties on 3rd down. That first drive set the tone IMO.

I give props to Urb for not playing Hall. I didn't think he would that. I figured a series would be all.

I'd rather drop a close game to MSU rather than get run out of the building on the national stage and hear the Mark May's of the world tell me how OSU didn't deserve to be there in the first place.

MSU also came prepared...they attempted 40 passes. A Jim Bollman offense. 40 passes.

I didn't realize he actually played a series--I didn't see him out there. Anyway, great experience for Elflein moving forward.

Wisconsin beat BYU (a better win than ANYONE on Clemson's schedule). 2 point loss to ASU, 7 point loss to OSU and 7 point loss to PSU. Clemson got blasted by FSU. They got pretty much shut down by South Carolina. They DID NOT PLAY the #2 (Duke), #3 (Miami) or #4 (Virginia Tech) teams in the ACC. Their only quality win was Georgia, who was 8-4.

Clemson was a product of not only a weak OOC schedule, but they also managed to have the weakest in-conference schedule a team could have.
