Nope. [censored] other teams and [censored] conference superiority. The day I use a strong conference as an excuse as to why we lost 4 games is the day I give somebody permission to shoot me. We aren't Tennessee, Arkansas, Mississippi St,...
Maybe I should clarify. I want to play tough teams because, selfishly, it is more fun to watch those games. If the B1G becomes the MAC, I bet I won't schedule my life around the OSU football anymore. That said, F Ped State.

Does anyone question Alabama when they win a NC? If tOSU was eligible and somehow made it into the NC game this year and won it... Everyone outside the B1G would have been calling for asterisk again because we played no one all season. The same old "Ohio State would finish 4th or 5th in the SEC" argument.

again? nobody called for an asterisk when osu won the title in 2002. if osu beats bama, UF, or UGA in the title game next year, nobody will question it then either. and anyone that does won't b e persuaded by PSU finishing 9-3 vs. 6-6. you're grasping.

Do you give a shit that people say we robbed a trophy from Miami? Who cares what idiots are going to say.

Am I the only one who doesn't care what ppl say in 2002 we won the NC game and went 12-0 in 2012. Commentary is just noise..30 years we will be the 2002 NC and undefeated in 2012 and few will remember the Noise. I'll be damned if I will let stupid opposing fans,talking a''''holes like Trev, Mark May define what MY team did. I don't need the approval of Skip and Stephen A so I can enjoy a NC or a 12 and 0 season.

what happened at ped aggy happened because the football culture got so pervasive that they would do anything and everything to maintain it's image, and that of Dear Leader. Nothing but total scorched earth was going to smack any sense into them. they should have gotten more than they did.
A 30-second trip over to BWI would show anyone that the same mindset remains intact...

Uh, no they wouldn't have. Now, had we made it to the NCG and got blown out, then you'd have a point. However, we would've faced NoSuch Dame and most likely would've won.

What performance did we have that would guarantee a win against ND?

This is a good indication of just how UNINFORMED the ped-nation is when it comes to this whole situation:

Re: Dick Thornburgh Reply
The sports junkies covering the story so far have not put two and two together to realize that Thornburgh trumps Freeh. They probably do not understand what the Attorney General is. They'll attack him today and get floored when this report has a real legal impact on something. Oh well. If I wanted to give good advice to the sports media, I'd say "walk away." This is a little too big for them but they are digging their own hole.

http://bwi.rivals.com/showmsg.asp?fid=36&tid=162643313&mid=162643313&sid=890&style=2

How in the hell does this person thinks that this Throburgh guy has any bigger standing than Freeh when it comes to this situation? This is how delusional they have become over there in Slappy Valley. Their line of thinking must go like this:

Freeh's investigation that made JoePa look bad, and cited examples and documents that supported their claim = HORRIBLE INVESTIGATIVE WORK!! TOTAL LIES AND DECEIT!! CAN NOT TRUST!!!

Throburgh's report on the Freeh Report not being as thorough as it should be - THIS GUY 1000% RIGHT!!! HE MUST BE TELLING ONLY THE TRUTH!! FREE JOEPA!!! THROW THE FREEH REPORT OUT NOW!!! 409!!! FRANCO!!! AHRGHHHH!!!!

They all need to just go and DIAFF.

Be back... gonna find threads on Boise St and TCU to see how many of you said the same things about them during the, do they deserve BCS games for rolling through their cupcake conference, seasons.

Go ahead, you're only going to prove the counterpoint... which is that college football fans are going to talk shit regardless of what the facts might be.

If you think a flawless season is going to get SEC fans to stop being mean to you, you're mistaken. These days, that's what they are making fun of the B1G for half of the time anyway.

Yes this has to do with my personal feelings being hurt.....
Even if some here don't think the SEC is the benchmark... they are. We might as well join the MAC so we can guarantee undefeated seasons and hope we can ramp it up for a game or 2 at the end.

Thornburgh is also the guy who let himself get suckered into a conversation with Ali G. about the relative merits of various "Barely Legal" episodes.

so, the SEC is the benchmark, but it won't be satisfactory to you if osu runs through a down big 10 and beats an SEC team for the title.

good luck with that skippy.
