2010 Rose Bowl Champs!!!!

UC won their game today. Good for them.
They had to get into a shootout with one on the worst teams in the Big 10 this year, at home, to pull it off. If I was a UC fan, I would be nervous right now. This is not a isolated incident, it has happened more than once this year (against unranked teams). Lots of stones being thrown from that glass house in Ciliton.
Since we didn't play the dUCchebags this year, I told my UC friends that if you want to compare teams, use this game (common opponent). tOSU hung 30 on them, and shut them out. Hell, JT shut it down in the 3rd quarter, and had the second string in by the 4th quarter. Beat them in similar fashion, and you can argue who the best team in OH-IO is. They didn't.

Stay classy, ORD. :)
Jwin,
The second place tie in for the Big East is the Gator Bowl. While some UC fan think there is a possibility of an at-large berth to the BCS, I am not among them.
No way does an 11-1 Big East team get an at-large over a team like Penn State.

using comparative scores is not a good indicator in my opinion. According to this logic, OSU is on even footing with Notre Dame since OSU barely beat the Midshipmen and Navy held on to beat the Irish.
OSU is better than UC. I don't doubt it or argue it so don't read my post and think that's whay I'm saying because I'm not. Just pointing out the fallacy of using comparative scores.

I'm sorry, but how does predicting that, in a bowl game, Florida or Alabama would absolutely dominate UC's defense when, in the last three games, they've given up 45 to UCONN and 36 to Illinois at home. Florida or Alabama will prison rape (or any other graphic metaphor one might choose) that defense. Truth hurts. Speaking it does not display a lack of class.
If you want to know the definition of classless fans look to UC. Their fanbase--even the frickin' alumni--demonized, made life miserable for and eventually ran off the best President that community college ever had because she had the guts to clean up the basketball program and fire the worst win at all costs coach this side of Jerry Tarkanian!
In the immortal words of Blues great Sonny Boy Williamson:
Ain't no big thing, UC. Replace you right away and send you back to the lowlands from which you came!

for starters, I was just teasing you, ORD. Hence the ':)'
secondly, I liked Dr. Zimpher and was in her corner the entire time.
finally, you do use an awful lot of references to 'anal rape, prison rape, gang rape and ape rape'...
did something bad happen to you when you were in juvie or what?

Forget about Florida or Alabama ... how many rushing yards would Georgia Tech hang on that UC defense? 400? 500? 600? The numbers boggle the mind....ORD_Buckeye;1606726; said:

Mr. ORD, would you please use the doll to show the court where the Miami of Ohio students touched you.
In all fairness, I think I've confined myself to ass-rape and prison rape. Might, however, have to start using ape rape.

or the fact that OSU let up 26 and lost to purdue..I wouldn't consider purdue's O on par with Illi but it just goes to show that individual games aren't always something to invest in.

To all 'nati fans. Congrats, so far.
Newsflash, the Bid East really does suck that bad. I give you Rich Rod, Miami and what-the-fuck-ever else.... its no secret. I hope you run the table and play Florida. Enjoy.
That is all.

17-4 since 2001
It's a stupid argument to be having anyway. It should be decided on the field, but isn't. There are probably 10 teams in the country that would be favored over Cincinnati and would beat them on paper. Ohio State would be one of them. But they won't get a shot at them, or a shot at the NCG, so it's still pretty bogus.
I'm glad that Oklahoma lost in 2002, or else they would have played Miami FL, and we would have been on the outside looking in because of our 'unimpressive wins'. Instead we 'get lucky' to play in the championship game by something happening that was completely out of the teams control. They get their shot at Miami, FL, who on paper, everyone said was a better team. Look what happened.
Maybe some of you find these arguments fun, but to me they are only fun if we finally get an answer at the end of a season. The arguments suck when we are left at the end of a season with a big what if.
I feel bad for any team's fans when they watch their team win all their games, but don't get to go to the national championship. I'm glad we didn't have to deal with that in 2002, or else Columbus likely would have been burnt down
and rightfully so.
I used to be all for the bowl system, but with all the parody that we now have in college football, we need a playoff.
And it must be nice for Cincinnati's defense to play it's worst game of the year, and still win.
Championship teams don't need great defense and great offense every week. What they need is for their offense to step up when the defense has on off-day, and for their defense to step up when their offense has an off-day. Great TEAM efforts win championships. I think 2002 taught me that more than anything. Glad that the system was fair that year.
