Deja vu, coming off losing to the wrong team in 2005... to losing to the wrong team in 2015... we can finish it with an ass-beating of the domers.

I was at that "wrong team" loss to Penn State. My first - and only - visit to Crappy Valley. You couldn't pay me to experience another game surrounded by 100,000 inbred Pedster cult members.

Yeah a 10 win team that beat the #6 team on the road and whos losses are to a top 5 team and another top 20 team on the road being just outside the top 10 is a joke...

The Northwestern/Stanford game was a home game for Northwestern--it wasn't "on the road." Beyond that, Northwestern lost by 38 to Michigan and by 30 to Iowa. Good teams don't get crushed like that even once in a season, more less twice.

Due to circumstance. Half the teams in the east would have defeated Iowa this season. They just need to own the historically horrific offensive showing against MSU.

If Ohio State's offense performed well throughout the season, they would be in the Rose Bowl and ranked fifth , outside the top 4 only on the technicality of missing out on the conference championship game. Their ranking has the halo effect of disappointing offensive performances in almost every game. Beck needs to put his hand up and take responsibility, but the entire offensive coaching staff needs to look back long and hard at this season as a case study and grow from it.

Regardless of the year long underperformance, marginally competent play calling against MSU is a W, Ohio State is in the B1G championship and very likely the playoff.

I don't think we're really disagreeing here other than I don't care at all about the final ranking- you're either in the playoff or you're not- and I guess you do.

I think we're onsides. I just strongly dislike all of the Iowa deserved it nonsense for the Rose Bowl. I actually think we get a better game but that's not the point for me. I remain disappointed by the offensive coaching decisions this year. Few coaches get to work with talent like this in a lifetime.

I hope they bury Notre Dame to make the point.
