ou play the (4) best teams and OSU is one of them, regardless. .. In fact they are predicting a historic season this year they are so loaded and deep, even with the opt out of Wyatt Davis and Shawn Wade, both first round picks.




I get that, but the difference in playing an 8 game schedule and a 10 game schedule is significant. Injuries and wear and tear on the body in an 8 game season would be a big advantage for the BIG 10 teams.

Look at it this way...how would you like it if LSU has to play Alabama, Auburn and Florida abd Ohio State misses Penn State and say....Michigan or Wisconsin. Add to that you lose Myles Brenna to injury against Florida or Alabama, and Ohio State sails through against inferior competition with few or no injuries.

If playing in the ACC gives Clemson an advantage then playing an 8 game schedule gives Ohio State (or any other BIG 10 team just as much of an advantage.

The sec plays less conference games than all the other conferences every year and now you are bitching if some one else does. Isn’t that ironic. Don’t you think

Just a little too ironic. Oh yeah I really do think

It’s like rain on your wedding day


It's not about playing conference games. It's about the number of games and the wear and tear on bodies that is the issue. I mean, using your logic why play any games? Just give them a pass into the playoffs, because, after all, they are the most talented and deep team. "Everybody knows it!" right? There is a reason teams play the same number of games in a season.
