For fucks sake can you picture Woody whining about the refs? Perhaps..... in the office.... cussing everything in sight like the bastard he was, but in public?

tOSU doesn't whine like Miami, ttun, or Clemson.

Fuck off, yourself. Woody never whined.

This just in, Stevie Wonder and Ronnie Millsaps both confirmed the play shouldn't have been over-turned.

What a giant vagina......

Look, tOSU draws more eyes than Clemson. That's a fact. ESPN is a damn business that survives on eyes on TV....... even WITH the SEC connections.

If you think for a single second that a tOSU vs LSU game isn'ta MAJOR win for ESPN vs Clemson getting destroyed...... you're just not football knowledgeable.

We lost the damn game. It wasn't stolen. It wasn't well officiated, for sure, but it also wasn't tOSU at its best. The loss isn't on the stripes. It's on the offense not getting it done in the red zone. Fucking 3 points isn't 7...... and won't win playoff games.

Fuck the refs, for sure, but there's no "vast ESPN conspiracy" to have LESS eyeballs on the championship game than there would with tOSU there. If anything, a tOSU win this year would fuel a year of "Bama will beat their ass" furor which is great for ESPN.

Grow a pair and move on.....

I do have to totally agree with you on this point. I mean all of Buckeye Nation understands how well the fans travel and how good the TV ratings are. That is why ESPiN has tried so hard every year to get OSU in the playoffs over schools like UGa etc. I mean ESPiNs effort to build up OSU every chance they get is obvious.

People who think ESPN wants tOSU to succeed are thinking short term. There are literally billions of dollars at stake. They have a very substantial investment tied up in the SEC and ACC. The B1G as well but not nearly the same level. They're looking towards the future. If they can convince most casual fans that the ACC and SEC are head and shoulders above the rest of the country, those brands will eventually draw the same kinds of viewers tOSU does. They're not pimping Clemson over tOSU for a single games ratings. They're trying to sell the ACC network. Act like it's absurd all you like but there's a reason people are tuning into Fox over ESPN. They see a clear difference.
