      Edited for quote.
      and their one loss was the the only other team in the conference that could be considered and probably is equally good.

      and how do you know preseason both ohio state and michigan are going to run the national show?

        A long shot.

        • If they do go undefeated, then they fully deserve to be in the the title game. I doubt the pollsters will rank them highly enough for that to happen, though. The polls...

            No way on god's green earth would Rutgers make it, unfortunately.

            • Look, I am in no way saying that the Badgers even should be considered for a National Title. I was just bringing them up as an example of why the quote I took from DanS was a load of crap.

              • How does your example prove that DanS' comment was "crap". Wisconsin did have ample opportunity to prove they belonged in the national title game. They just blew it...

                • Because they only lost to Mich. Now they have no chance at the title. Now it seems that whoever looses the OSU-Mich game very well will be out of the running of the national title and some other team will slip in, some other team that already blew their shot. Including the most likely candidate, Texas, which was destroyed by OSU already. And why would Texas getting destroyed by OSU twice be better than Mich loosing twice to them?

                  Face it, they year end results of NCAA college football is going to have #2 with two losses this year.

                  It is Crap.

                    I'll say again: so what? They lost a game, so they have no right to play for the national title. No team with a loss has a right to play for the national title. If they get lucky they might back into it, but they have no justification for *****ing if they don't...

                      I would be just fine with the winner of OSU-Michigan being declared national champion after their game next week. That would be the best outcome.

                        Of course I don't know that OSU & U-M are going to be national contenders, but they are usually Big Ten contenders.
