Yeah its a joke. Can't wait for a few of them to have losing records at seasons end.Fly4Fun;1749313 wrote:10 SEC teams in the top 25... I thought this crap would have toned down a little after the beat down that legendary SEC West took last bowl season.

This no longer bothers me as much as it used to. The SEC is perpetually overrated and that's why I want OSU to always face the SEC champion every year in the CFP.Fly4Fun;1749313 wrote:10 SEC teams in the top 25...

^^^This all day.
The playoff has changed things. I'd welcome Bama again, but who I'd really like to smash is The Hat and LSU on NYE.

I'll take whoever, but continuously beating Bama to a pulp is more fun than beating anyone else.Automatik;1749318 wrote:^^^This all day.

Not cocky. It's reality. Name a team that has enough talent to compete with OSU this year. There isn't one.
If people think OSU struggled against VTech, they need to get their eyes checked. That was a dominant performance inhibited only by self inflicted wounds. 100% of VTech's points were off turnovers. Zeek will not be returning punts and Dunn will not touch the ball ever again at OSU. The interception was pure luck rather than any credit to their defense.

The SEC can have the whole conference ranked.
The way the playoff is set up, it's going to be a miracle if any league ever gets 2 teams in the playoff.
As much as I root for the SEC, I can't say I disagree. The voters did a good job of evaluating their 4 teams pretty much as it should have been.
Now, if we expand to 8 teams, that obviously changes everything. And I believe it will change how some of these teams schedule. You will start seeing teams not in the top 2 or 3 leagues playing other tough teams OOC to build their resume.

I'm only saying beating Alabama once is not continously beating Alabama. I hope we have many championships to come but I don't expect them to win the next 10sleeper;1749324 wrote:Not cocky. It's reality.

yeah, especially when the all time series is 1-3 in Bama's favor, including a junkyard ass whoopin that the bear put on woody.

There was no struggle per se Sleepster but the O-line did not dominate. Most of the yards came off the edge and interior blocking was serviceable at best. Huge improvements in getting Zeke free will need to happen if we meet Bama again.

The O-line was underwhelming but that is a unit that does improve with time. The Buckeyes will be hanging 70 on teams this year and Hawaii may be the first victim.Tiernan;1749380 wrote:There was no struggle per se Sleepster but the O-line did not dominate.

If they want to play a cover 0 bear front, you take what they give you on the outside.Tiernan;1749380 wrote:There was no struggle per se Sleepster but the O-line did not dominate.

Biggest difference is they were coached by Larry Coker....We're being coached by perhaps the GOAT (or at least in the discussion)slingshot4ever;1749388 wrote:Interestingly enough, the same thing was said about 2002 Miami team....how did that turn out for them?

TCU looked like ass against an unranked, Bama beats on #20.

You know me Big Chief...I only spout the clear and decisive truth. I'm even throwing you a bone this week...your Clowns will take down the NY Shits 31-17.

LOL at the Browns scoring 31 points against the Jets on the road.
I'd love to hear the last time the Browns won a road game by double figures and scored over 30...appears the last time was 2010.
