Re: who does tOSU play in the title game?
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] If Hawaii wins their game tonight, they should be in. [/ QUOTE ] Agreed. As I posted in the other thread, Hawaii has one less loss and a more impressive best victory(Boise St was ranked higher than Michigan) than OSU...why is Ohio St getting the nod? [/ QUOTE ] Because that's a ridiculously oversimplistic view of strength of schedule, accomplishment, and team strength? How about that OSU crushed most teams all year, while Hawaii had a very hard time with many very weak teams? And that OSU played a much harder (though overall still weak) schedule? [/ QUOTE ] If you don't think Hawaii has played enough tough teams, then put them in the title game against a tough team. That way, either way we'll know for sure. But if Hawaii doesn't get in, then we could have another Boise St situation where we truly don't know if they were the best team or not. Why would you rather not find out than find out if Hawaii is for real? I could understand your argument if there were many other deserving teams, but theres not so lets give the undefeated team a chance and see what happens. What happened to Boise St last year was a tragedy imo. [/ QUOTE ] great idea. lets encourage teams to make the easiest schedules possible because going undefeated against west endover community college and itt tech will guarantee a spot in the national championship. this will do wonders for college football

Re: who does tOSU play in the title game?
lol at all the people campaigning against OSU. They are in period Kos and Edge are funny. LSU and USC both had their chances and both effed it up lol. If they don't get in its their fault not OSU. And lol at all the big ten/OSU hate because of one game (the NC game last year).

This [censored] isn't rocket science. EDIT: And yes, I agree that EKSCC, a school I made up, could probably beat Stanford.

Ok, I agree with you there. But... my solution is to give them the toughest possible opponent(which would be against the other top team in the NT game) and find out. Your solution is to give them an easier opponent in a lesser bowl. That makes no sense to me.

Not that they are the best team, not that they are the most deserving team, not that they would be a competitive team. Simply, you are arguing only that "undefeated = right to be in title game regardless" which is obviously absurd.

[/ QUOTE ] I am arguing for the game in which is most likely to give us a clear cut national champ. After all, isn't that the goal? If Hawaii is not in the game and they win their bowl game and a two loss two beats Ohio St, then I would say we failed to get a clear cut national champ. Obviously "clear cut" is relative, as without a playoff we'll never get it, but I believe that my way accomplishes it the best.
