Ok, so, our thread was frozen at that magical number of 80-230 pages. lol. Changes every time. Maybe it’s determined by number of characters or number of times the word "fuck" is used instead of the number of pages.

Anyway... here we go again...

Odd time for it to crap out.

But yeah.. I think it’s somewhere 4-6 months = autofreeze.

Anyway.. I’m gonna copy my point about Ohio State over:

Side Note: With Wisco loss today and their pending ranking fall.. Ohio State could be headed to the B1G Championship game without a single win over a currently ranked team this season.

How does anyone put them in the NCG??

While I’m fine with B1G getting two teams into the BCS.. they’ll get mauled in the NCG this year. No one wants to see that. Just like "Beat Ourselves, Fake Girlfriend" ND.. why re-create that mess?

The people wanna see FSU and Auburn (Pending they beat.. shit.. Mizzou is gonna be ranked 4? GTFO of here.. fuck) should they wrap up their slates.

No clue, dude. 31-7 lead? Blown? Fortunately, I only watched the good part. I quit watching when we were way up and moved on to more interesting games.

I’m with you. How does OSU beat Michigan by 1, beat zero teams that are currently worth a busted dog nut, and make it to the BCS championship game? If I’m King of the World, they don’t. Hopefully OSU loses in the Big 10 Championship game and Auburn or Missouri gets a shot at FSU.

Unfortunately, voters will probably put OSU in the championship game if they win out. Same voters that do stupid shit on a weekly basis, such as:

#5 beats #18, like they should. It’s not a blowout. So, the voters move #5 up to #4 or #3 and bump #18 down to #20 or #25 because each team did exactly what they were supposed to do.

Morons? Yep.

Their Wisco win looks nice.. but Arizona State AND Penn State beat them too. Wisco will probably be ranked between 20-23.. That’s their best win. Their only ranked team win.

I may not like Sparty.. but if they win, it’d be neat to see them play Stanford. OSU would likely go to Orange Bowl..

Now, hindsight shows Auburn will likely only have 1 win over currently ranked teams (and that’s the clincher.. it doesn’t matter what a team was ranked when you played them) heading into the SEC Championship game.. but a more impressive slate won, I think.

They lost to LSU, sure.. but they also beat Texas A&M (A pretty good team - not great, and certainly flawed) and get a chance at apparently a Top 5 Mizzou.

Ole Miss and Georgia proved to be pretenders..

UCF vs OSU in Orange Bowl?

I would buy a ticket and a Knights jersey for that. In fact, I think I will. Only a couple hours away.

Things are still up in the air, but it looks like Auburn or Bama for us, in New Orleans is the most likely scenario.

We did alright against USC East earlier in the year, but I don’t think we can hang with some of these big boys.
