You mentioned it but it bares repeating, if the playoff existed then I put it at 50/50 odds we are national champs in 02. OSU was garbage that year and I'd put us up against anyone the way we played from mid-November on.
You mean a team who went 14-0 and beat one of the GOATs in the Fiesta Bowl is garbage? B1G was the best conference in 2002 (one of the last times we could say that) and OSU beat something like 6 ranked teams. They were a grind it out offense with a great defense. You can bring up PI all you want but even getting it to OT should have been an accomplishment against a Miami team going for something like 35 straight

This is called SEC rant, take your garbage about the big 10 somewhere else.

yes. They won all their games but were pretty mediocre in doing so.
-They had a good win over WSU that lost 3 games but did end up ranked 10th. No issues there.
-4 point win over a 7-7 cincinnati
-close 11 point win over a 3-9 northwestern team
-5 point win over an 8-6 wisconsin
-6 point win over a 4 loss PSU
-4 point win over a 7-6 purdue, that wasn't decided until a late, 4th down TD pass your fanbase titled "holy buckeye"
-7 point OT win over a 5-7 illinois team that was questionable due to officiating. Likely shoudl have lost
-5 point win over a 3 loss michigan
In the regular season OSU played 3 teams that would finish ranked, none of which had less than 3 losses. YOu slogged unimpressively through a pedestrian schedule and needed some incredible luck and good fortune to even get through that. As for the Miami game it was probably the best you played all year, and even NOT talking about the PI (which the game should have ended) there's the whole "willis mcgahee injured the whole 4th quarter/OT" thing.
