I said a couple weeks back that the NCAA would do whatever they needed to to get Ohio St in the playoff, no reason to think that doesn't hold up today.

Gimme OSU for the easy money.

If ohio st wins they still need help IMO


Clemson- they will win today
Oklahoma- only spot open for ohio st
Auburn/Georgia winner is in
Alabama- idle but ahead already of ohio st

I really think the only way ohio st makes it is with a win and Oklahoma loss....



Perhaps the big 10 knows that the only way they have representation in the playoff is with a Wisconsin win...
And they would rather see a Wisky win??

A two loss OSU will get in ahead of a one loss Bama, watch and see. The worst part about it is if they win today they will have the exact resume Penn State had last year and they got in ahead of PSU last year.

I've said all along, there are only three spots available in the playoff, the fourth is reserved for OSU.

Don't think Penn St got trounced by a mediocre Iowa team at best last yr...55-21 and was a lot worse than score indicated...IMO mo way Ohio St gets in...

Big Ten: Ohio State 27, Wisconsin 24 (+6) (8 p.m. ET, Fox)

Ohio State?s win probability: 56 percent

The conventional wisdom has been structured around what happens when Ohio State wins, not if Ohio State wins. But while S&P+ thinks the Buckeyes are indeed the best overall team in the country, the Badgers are No. 3. They?re not exactly going to need that many breaks to pull off the slight upset and go to the CFP.

Ohio State/Wisconsin

Gimme a large handful of Bucky +4.5 which is what I grabbed it at this morning.
A little taste of the +155 moneyline is nice and a dollop of the under 51 finishes it off.

A two loss OSU will not get in over a 1 loss Alabama, don?t see that happening

I'm not saying it's the right thing, I'm just saying they will do it to put OSU in. Their reasoning will be that OSU are Big 10 Champs and that will be what matters (even though it didn't matter last year).

When I posted two or three weeks ago I got a few replies that no way OSU gets in. I'm telling you, WWE is less scripted than the NCAA playoff. They win today (and just watch how this game gets officiated) and they are in.

Definitely possible but would be ridiculous in my opinion

If they hadn?t lost to a unranked team by 31pts maybe I wouldn?t feel that way

Any less ridiculous than losing to a team that ultimately wins the championship FROM THE SAME CONFERENCE and STILL getting in the playoff over that team?

Anyone that doesn't think OSU gets preferential treatment, I don't know what you are looking at.

Then it would be 2 years in a row that they get that treatment

Didn?t work out well for them last year against Clemson if I remember correctly

Of course it didn't work out for them, they didn't deserve to be in the game. Much like Notre Dame in late 90's/early 00's who always got a better bowl game than they deserved because they were Notre Dame, then got blown out.

On the course!
Unless you live in Wisconsin, no one wants to see Bucky in the final four.

Hornibrook will have 3 or more TOs tonight.

I would like to see them in the final four and I'm from DE!! I also need them to finish off a lot of bets!

If Horny turns it over 3 times they lose big. No turnovers and they win.
