If Ohio St gets to play in the National title game over LSU, it will show you just how much of a joke college football is off the field. OSU is not even one of the top 3 teams in the SEC or the PAC-10, but plays AKRON, DAYTON and every other junior college in the the state of OHIO. The only problem is they dont have anyone in the LITTLE 10 that can beat them. This is why the GATORS beat the shit out of them last season. They were protected by there pathetic schedule.

Michigan did not turn around there season around. They got into there easy part of the season is all. Playing in the BIG TEN.

There is not a single team in the BIG 10 worthy of being in the TOP 25 besides maybe OHIO ST.

Look at the overhype this conference has gotten this season.

OHIO ST, PENN ST and michigan have all been ranked in the top 6 at one point in the season.

Thats a joke. Think about that.

MICHAGAN and WISCOINSON have both been in the top 5. Neither one is even top 25 material.

If MICHAGAN played in the SEC, I bet you they would be lucky to win 1 conference game.

Can you believe that there were people that said PENN ST is a national title contender?

Every conference is pretty mediocre this year. The same could be said for just about every top team as well.

On an unrelated note, go back and get your GED. Michagan? :puppy:

OSU is a top ten team........but other than that, I would not put any other team in the TOP THIRTY.

It will be interesting to see how they perform in the bowl games.

My Hawkeyes are desperately trying to win the qualified six games to qualify for a bowl game..........they are 50-50 at best of accomplishing this.

By the way, not because they are great teams, but tonights MICH-ILL game should be a great game to watch as a CFB fan.

I am pretty sure MichAgan would win a game in the SEC. That is dumb to say or think that.

All conferences suck. All teams are overrated. Ohio State sucks, LSU sucks, Oklahoma sucks, USC sucks, the Patriots suck. Everybody sucks...bad.

Talk about any conference you want, but they are all the same--all mediocre with 1-2 solid teams.

Meanwhile, at the bat cave, doormat Vandy is waxing the shit out of #6 team in the country, South Carolina.


Shall we deem them "Frauds"?

While The Sec Is Kicking The Shit Out Of Each Other This Weekend Again, The Big Ten Is Playing Teams Like E Mich[nw], N Dakota St[minn], N Ill[wisc] To Build Up Their Records.

We don't know how good Ohio St is. I've got Mich St +19.5 today, and I feel pretty good about it. But they might be that good.

Nobody said Penn St was a national title contender. I'd like to know who dreamed that up and said it.

Before the season started you had several people say that PENN ST is a title contender.

holy hell, we couldn't even make it out of the first quarter of the 12:00 games before we get the first this conferance sucks thread. Who exactly doesn't suck this year?

South Florida who lost to Rutgers and was given a tough time with FAU, or maybe Boston College who has played nobody. Perhaps Oaklahoma who got beat by the mighty Buffalos. Oh I got it South Carolina, who is getting waxed by fucking Vandy right now. USC maybe, oh wait they lost to the worst team in Div 1. Obviously Florida should be #1, I mean they only lost 2 games. One of them to an Auburn team at home. Did I mention Auburn is the same team that got beat at home by Miss ST.
 

Can't we ALL just get along?!!

Who said that? I am a big Penn State homer alum and even I didn't think they were going to be Nat'l Title contenders. Other than our wide receiver saying we could play for a national championship this year I don't think anyone saw us there (other than BEANO COOK who is a Pitt alum...blah!)

With Anthony Morelli? What?

Bottom line is that the SEC is much better than any other conference, and it's not close. It's also obvious, so there's no reason to get worked up about other conferences being overrated. They aren't rated very high, so how can they be overrated?

That being said, Ohio St might be that good. I hope they show today that they aren't.

Ohio St would beat LSU. Having seen them play nearly every game this year, I feel LSU is a bit overrated. I hope they play in the title game

How can you say they are not overated.

MICHAGAN, OHIO ST and WISCOINSON have all been in the top 6 or better this season. No conference in the Country has gotten that amount of respect this season.

Are you kidding?

It would be ugly.

It would be worse than the National Title game last season.
Kentucky is better than OHIO ST.

Maybe thats because the SEC teams have allready played their OOC schedules. That did consist of the yearly powers like E. Ken, W. Ken, FAU, LA Laffy, SC St., M Tenn St., N Mex ST., Troy, S Miss., Ark ST., W. Car., Tulane, Hou and the team that Ohio St gets ripped for playing, Kent. And thats not counting the scehdules of Miss St, Ark, Miss, or Vandy.

Why doesn't everybody give it a rest with the this or that conferance sucks stuff. There isn't a conferance out there that you can't knock this year.
