This. He also claimed to have some inside knowledge of a big hire at USC. Enter Chad Helton. Nice work Colin.

Remember when Cowherd said Saban wasn't even the best coach in his state and would be run out of town by Gus Malzahn?
Good times.

Cowherd on USC. Big name coming. Will be paid twice what Carroll got.

But Ohio State didn't play 3 really good teams and 9 bad teams. They have played 1 really good team (10+ wins) (who they lost to), 1 pretty good team (8-9 wins, Power 5) and 10 average to bad teams. Alabama has played 4-5 pretty good teams (8-9 wins) and 7-8 average to bad teams. This isn't an argument. Ohio State's schedule is clearly the worst of all the playoff possibles
I never said OSU played a harder schedule. In fact, I said it wasn't as difficult as Bama's in my last post(which you left out)
I said choosing 8 win teams, or bowl teams, or even top 25 teams is arbitrary. One team could play 4 or 5 10 win teams and the rest that are bad and another could play a lot of good/not great teams

This is about as arbitrary as you can get on your cutoff.
Seems pretty standard to me.

The way OSU played last weekend, sure they could beat anyone.
Now THAT is arbitrary. I would say that the Alabama defense from the LSU and UGA games played well enough to monkey stomp anyone. Not sure how that is relevant.

Bama lost early and was able to get back into better position. Ohio St lost at wrong time and will not win conference.

I agree and that is why I advocate looking at all of the computer models to try and weed all of that out.

8 wins as a cutoff is standard to you? How did you feel in 2011 when Bama had played like 4 teams with winning records and okie state had played like 10 bowl teams

I agree our schedule is not what it should be, 7 teams were Top 25 in preseason. We play who is on the schedule and beat most of them. I recalled Cowherd saying that the Sec was a top heavy league in the past. But now the Big 10 and Big 12 are top heavy and he praises them.

OSU may beat Bama this year, but you can't use a resume to back it up. Cowherd can say this since there is very little chance this matchup happens

Funny you say that, because I agree with you.
If the fight was between Michigan State, Oklahoma and Alabama for 1 spot I'd feel pretty nervous because of the fact that we don't have a real "big" victory over a Top 10 type team. Our resume is very, very similar to that 2011 Oklahoma State team (though our loss is to a team that will play in the Sugar Bowl and not to a 6-6 team).

He would also be correct if he said Bama will be in the CFP and Ohio State will not.

Not likely but a Florida or UNC win Saturday and OSU is in, count on it. Not saying it's right but it would happen.

Good point.
UF will not win, but UNC has a chance.

fine...cut it arbitrarily in a way that makes Ohio State look better.

Good lord you people. I said OSU's schedule wasn't as good as Bama's in my first and second post
I am saying using bowl teams, or 8 win teams, or 10 win teams or top 25 wins is arbitrary
Schedule A: All 13 teams on the schedule are 8-4
Schedule B: 4 teams are 10-2, 6 teams are 7-5 and 2 teams are 3-9
Which schedule is better? One has way higher ranked wins while the other has more "good" wins
