So you have Ohio State at #4 all-time in college football in your rankings and they've underachieved?
125 years of pure politics and nothing less than a beauty contest during the so-called "bowl era" in picking national champions in college football, and they are the poster child of underachieving?
Again, they had the most weeks at #1 in the AP poll (until Bama topped it), and yet had trouble closing the deal. That is the very definition of underachieving.

With all their built in advantages, why don’t they win more? It’s puzzling really.
Here are some numbers for Ohio State:
All-Time Record W/L% - .731 #1
National Championships - 8 #6
Conference Championships - 39 #4
Wins all time - 936 #2
Consensus All-Americans - 90 #2
Heisman Winners - 7 #1
NFL Draft Picks - 473 #3
First Round NFL Draft Picks - 85 #1
Weeks in AP Poll - 942 #1
Weeks at AP No.1 - 105 #2
Yeah They don't have 18 Championships but to call Ohio State underachieving is LOL funny.

They still have 8 national titles. There are not many Universities a head of them. I know you're a Bama fan and your view is skewed but, It's not easy winning the title and lot of things have to go your way. That's what makes what Saban has done so remarkable.

That was such a moronic take that even your fellow SEC folks and Ohio State haters took you to the woodshed.
Yeah, some real underachievers.

my vote is your team.
Yet we've won a championship in recent history and played in another. So labeling us as underachieving as you sit on the outside of that group looking in, despite all the talent UGA has had the last three decades....sit down and STFU. You don't get a vote.

And Alabama had to get pretty creative to get to 18.

I honestly want to have a comeback but I have never thought about Ole Miss Football in my entire life. So hopefully you guys can make the AP poll every now and again. Good luck!

The polls are just part of past politics we know as college football. The vast majority of media folks who voted that stuff for the AP poll lived in the North East.
The only thread Ohio State belongs in is if someone wants to discuss how the best of the best of the elite teams historically compare to each other.
That's certainly not the title of this one.

You are clueless. Ohio State has been a juggernaut through the decades with multiple head coaches. 41 B1G titles, what's wrong with you?
Per this board NCs are all that matters and OSU was unbelievably fortunate to win in 2002 and prior to that they last won one in 68.

Just keeping it real. If OSU resume doesn't pass muster, neither does anyone else.

You do knoww e have played in one more recently than you, and will possibly play in another one this year, right?
And that more recent championship Auburn has? Tied us.
So....congrats for catching up with us. And by the way....before you say 40 years? Auburn went 53 years in between theirs.

If we have more SEC Championships and the same number of National Championships...how are we on the outside looking in?

So, you got nothing but a laughing emoji?

Just keep in mind you are the one that decided trolling Georgia was a good idea. This might be a good time to move on to another thread.

Maybe. But count the ones you consider legit and it will still add up to more than Ohio State....by a lot.
