Ohio State not being top 2 is laughable at this point



What is laughable is that Ohio State is in the top four.

I watched part of the Ohio State / Penn State game. I was so unimpressed that I turned off the TV to go watch the Georgia Women's Softball team.

Penn Sate was hyped by the New York media as the team to pick off the Ohio Sate / Michigan lock on the league. And that was exactly what it was, nothing but HYPE !!

You've been in dogfights with 2 teams winless in the Big 12. What's hard to understand?


OU hasn’t had a dog fight all year until this weekend after a bye and huge Texas win. The rest of the wins outside Texas are all by multiple TDs. Also Washington looked horrible vs unranked ASU until the 4th Q

They have two wins that trump any two wins by any other teams in the country. Take off your glasses. Your bias is showing big time.

ETA: what you should be questioning is why Florida State holds at 4 after struggling twice. I know they pulled away but I took an injury to Dukes qb for it to happen.

Why did Texas move up a spot despite winning possibly because of a bullshite spot?

But you be you and hate on Ohio state.

Notre Dame lost to Louisville by two touchdowns.

Penn State turned out to be all hype. If Penn State were in the SEC they would be 3-3 at best.

Bottom Line: CBS is desperately pushing B1G schools in an attempt to gain relevance after the contract they signed. Just look at the CBS poll... Michigan is ranked above Georgia.

A much as I hate them they are bludgeoning teams into submission. Has Georgia done that?

And there it is. Stating something you can’t prove as fact.

Maybe by the end of the regular season if the offense keeps improving, but not right now.

Georgia has the best O-line in the country.

And as far as beating teams into the turf, Kirby Smart has played second and third stringers in 30+ percent of the snaps Georgia has played on both sides of the ball.

The CBS poll is all about $$$. They tried to get a B1G program into the championship game last year and came up short even after everyone knew that TCU was supposed to be an easy win for Michigan.

What I saw was two elite defenses rising to the occasion. OSU's only real question mark is QB. McCord is good, but not elite, like Stroud and Fields. When the other teams game plan is to stop MHj with double teams and it always fails, then the QB just needs to be a game manager. MHj is at a different level, he just is.

Michigan is 8-0 (FBS only)
UGA is 6-0 (FBS only)

Michigan and UGA have identically weak schedules in the bottom 20% thus far

Michigan has been consistently dominant, UGA has struggled in several games

It’s not hard to put Michigan over UGA right now

In no world should Penn St be ranked 10 and Washington 5. Bama is objectively better than both.

How is Alabama objectivelybetter than an undefeated team? Subjectively, yes I'd say they're probably better.

OU could barely handle UCF. They don't want any piece of Washington.

Penn State and Notre Dame are propping up Ohio State. Ohio State has no business being ranked ahead of Washington, Florida State, and Oklahoma. The tale of this leverage farce is exposed by the fact that Louisville is ranked much lower than Notre Dame in spite of beating the Irish by two touchdowns.


Poll means shite now. OSU controls their destiny. If they beat Mich they’re in and should be in no question

You mean the same Washington that managed just 288 total yards, 15ptd and no offensive TDs against ASU which hasn’t beaten a single team in the FBS this season?

Yikes

You must be gay. You're awfully obsessed with the beauty pageant aspect of college football.
