CFB analysts - the stupid things they say

This is a link Brando posted on Twitter as "evidents."

Even though Penn State and Ohio State are banned from playing in the Big Ten title game or a bowl as part of NCAA sanctions, both are still eligible to win the conference's Leaders Division and receive a trophy this season.

The Big Ten office confirmed to the Associated Press on Wednesday that the Nittany Lions (0-1) and 14th-ranked Buckeyes (1-0) could still be officially recognized as division champions. Neither can play in the Big Ten title game, however, so second place could still be good enough to get to Indianapolis.

"I think that's good news," Penn State Coach Bill O'Brien said at practice in State College, Pa., about being eligible for the division title.

O'Brien said he would mention it to his players at some point but added, "I'm sure they read the Internet, so they know."

Ohio State Coach Urban Meyer was pleased when told of the news.

"I never heard that. I never thought about it. And it's not going to make us play harder this Saturday," he said. "But somewhere at a point in November or something, yeah, that'll be interesting."

The NCAA declared Penn State ineligible to play in bowls for the next four seasons because of the Jerry Sandusky child sex abuse scandal that rocked the program and sport. Ohio State is banned from a bowl this season because of NCAA sanctions for players trading memorabilia for cash and tattoos.

Meyer's contract, which pays him more than $4.1 million in 2012, provides him a $50,000 bonus if Ohio State has the most wins in the Leaders Division this fall.

Either Brando is a complete troll and knows, just like ESPN, that hating on the Buckeyes never fails to get you good ratings and a ton of attention...or he is an idiot and just decided to speak out if his ass and had it totally backfire.

He isn't clever enough to troll on purpose.

Gerd, Tibor and Bucknut24 all make appearances (and I'm not even through the whole thing yet)

Edit: I think this is the link that Bucknut24 meant to post... and link removed, I'm running into the same problem- can't even link to Awful Announcing's home page.

Brando's desperate and repeated attempts to turn this into a ratings booster for his show is indescribably pathetic.

@Fake_G_Dohrmann I don't think so. You might try me tomorrow. All you Buckeyes have an open line to Me everyday. Join in. Love the debate.
@DBooWags Hey, being nice here. Call me tomorrow on my Show and I'll provide, explain, and even allow your different opinion. Easy to reach.
@SYRmotsag I work everyday and credit every report. Unlike other News outlets, so tune in and listen and learn. Goodnight Buckeyes.
