ummm....pretty unlikely events or extremely likely considering it was the first time the Buckeyes had seen a defense of any sort under this year's quarterback


I've also shown the math for Kansas ahead of Ohio State numerous times, but most dismiss it

Does it involve them running up the score on their terrible opponents? I really don't know much about A&M, but they're certainly not a very good team. Colorado definitely isn't. Not that I'm saying Kansas can't handle them, but with their obvious desire to score a lot of points, the fact that they didn't against 2 sub-par teams...

nevermind...I redid the math
Ohio State is more impressive so far

Kansas would pass them if they both win out as Oklahoma and Mizzou >>>>>> Michigan

yeah...last week Kansas was ahead of Ohio State on paper for achievements on the year

however, the Kansas State loss to Iowa State and the poundings Colorado and A&M took really decreased the strength of the schedule faced by Kansas

tOSU has now leap-frogged the Jayhawks in my on-the-field rankings

I'm cracking up. I thought it was all about the play on the field?

His ranking system, although it shows who has "overachieved the most", does not represent accomplishments, unfortunately. A 1 point win every week is as good as a 30 point blowout against the same opponents. That dismisses quite a lot of what someone accomplishes "on the field".

it's not like Kansas squeaked by anyone...this isn't the 2002 Buckeyes

the only game that was really close was @ K St--big rival on the road--compared to MSU at home for the Buckeyes, which would've gone down to the wire if MSU didn't screw up a scoop and score

Kansas was dominating at A&M and at Colorado---I watched both games since they were on ESPN---I think I was the only one outside of Kansas who did

Kansas has played like a #1 all year....If they were wearing the Oklahoma jerseys, I doubt my opinion would be that controversial at all

lol..no
