Well I guarantee you Iowa would run a train on Auburn this year


Auburn lost to Texas A&M, Georgia, Oklahoma, and Missouri by a combined 23 points in regulation… but sure, Iowa, the team that lost to Iowa State, would certainly run a train on us.

I'll ask again, who have the 5th-8th best SEC teams played and beaten to make the SEC so good?


I'll ask once. Isn't there a United Dairy Farmers or such where you can go ? Maybe dice it up with other Buckeyes ? Share a plate of sheet-cake biscuits ? Maybe pray to your Woody Hayes icon ? Dawdle in the fricking Left Lane ?

Yet our worst top 10 loss was by 10 points but Iowa would "run a train" on us.

Cry more. If Alabama loses to Auburn in the final game, skips the SECCG, makes the playoffs and wins it - all of which is very possible, I'll have the same opinion.

It has nothing to do with Ohio St specifically.

And for the record, that Alabama vs Tennessee game was the worst game of offensive football games I've seen in many years. It was almost a competition of whose QB could frick up the most - Milroe won.

The 12 team playoff incentivizes playing an easy schedule.

If you went 11-1 against a really crappy schedule you would be left out of a 2 or 4 team playoff.

With 12 spots, there's plenty of room for teams with "great" W/L records.

Indiana has won all of their games. How the other teams perform is out of their control.
Winning on the road at Oregon is impressive. They lose very few games in that stadium.
And I disagree about the regular season not meaning anything. It means more because every game still matters. Bama is in good shape but the pressure is there to win every week.
But back to Indiana, it will all shake out in the postseason.

No, you're mad because I pointed out the meaning of the regular season has been gutted and all you can see is Ohio St being used an example.

I'm not even blaming Ohio St. But the fact that happens and can happen every year is dumb. The BCS format was better.

We would not know because your sorry program refuses to schedule any P4 teams out of conference.

Indiana’s most recent regular season OOC opponents, going back to 2019. P4 teams shown in bold.

Indiana State
Kennesaw State
Old Dominion
Charlotte
Western Illinois
Florida International
Akron
Louisville (LOST)
Indiana State
Cincinnati
Western Kentucky
Idaho
Western Kentucky
Cincinnati
Idaho
Connecticut
Eastern Illinois
Ball State

My God that is embarrassing.

Yep. Georgia Tech may end up in the playoff without beating a single Top 40 team. That would do amazing things for their program yet there are probably 11-12 SEC teams that would be favored over Tech on a neutral field.
That’s a problem.

Let's wait and see if Georgia will be able to beat Georgia Tech later this season.

The thing broken is the SEC has created an NFL-style league where almost every game comes down to one or two possessions in the last 7 or so minutes of the game.

The SEC has 9 teams in the top 25 teams by all-time winning percentage in FBS. The Big Ten has 6 teams in the top 25. That is 56.25% of the SEC but only 33.333% of the Big Ten.

Oh, and we decided to add a 9th game where you have a slightly better than coin flip chance of drawing a perennial contender type of program.

Furthermore, I don't believe strength of schedule will ever be respected so long as humans decide the playoff field. With so many teams to give bids, this is always going to become a stately quadrille of the power conferences making side bar agreements to weasel in as many of their schools as possible.
