Take that, NCAA? Take what?

Seems to me the NCAA still has the last laugh, as the 12-0 Buckeyes won´t be playing another football game until next fall.

OH

heh-heh-heh. I´m a transplanted buckeye but I bloom where I´m planted.

Really too bad for some very hard playing kids, and their supportive families, that prior corruption in the program prevents them from enjoying all that is available from their efforts.

It´s ironic that the Wolverines can continue to play when they were caught practicing out of the allowed times. Some cheaters get a light slap on the wrist.

HEY #1 ...the snark bothers us not!! GO! BUCKS!

The highest ranked team they played was #19. Rather easy schedule.

Watching the other undefeated team. Go Irish!

Ohio State, Michigan, Penn State, and Notre Dame should start the Big Four. Leave the 2big and the NCAA.

Interesting, #10, but I don´t think Notre Dame will (for football) ever join a conference.

#9: the part of me that wants to be the only undefeated team left makes me say ´Fight on, USC!´ (and I -never- say that)

But the part of me that does not want to see another SEC-SEC championship disagrees with that.

Funny, the BCS has no problem with those SEC-SEC games, but wouldn´t let #1/#2 OSU-Michigan play in the championship in 2006, because ´´you can´t have two teams from the same conference.´´

Why didn´t Ohio State play Michigan for the National Title in 2007. Hmmmm ... Florida 41 Ohio State 14. The Big Ten isn´t anywhere near the level of play as the SEC. LSU and Alabama played a close game in the regular season last year. They were far and away the top two teams in the country. If Ohio State and Notre Dame played an SEC schedule this year they´d be lucky to finish 8-4.

Oh well...It´s the big 10 or big 12...or whatever. I´m surprised they both didn´t lose....

´Roll tide...

You buckeyes must really be proud of your guys physically assaulting UM players from behind before the game. And let´s hear it fr Mr. Integrity, Jim Tressel. Standing O for the liar who got you on probation.

Maybe you can challenge PSU to beer pong on New Years day.

On the positive side, the free phone buckeye Ohio St doesn´t have to go out and embarrass itself or the big whatever again this year. I´m, not saying they are slow, but maybe just run to long in the same place....Have no interest in seeing BO´s jesuits, either. Standford looks solid ....I like.. the color scheme. No question the best football is played in the SEC....No way any of these pretenders could play down here and not be .500

To all you OSU haters you can smack all you want. Football in Columbus is a heady experience. It is part of our culture just as much as "roll Tide is to Alabama. Dis away. Tradition still stands strong in the Buckeye state. Jim Tressel will always be respected. You can´t take away the man that he is and the success he had here. The NCAA was just waiting to chop OSU at its knees. We had tattoos and personal memorabilia sold. Miami had prostitutes. just sayin´ Urban Era has just begun.

#16 thanks..well said..THWACK!!!!!

C´mon, Zero says it´s Oiho State, and he´s a sports authority. Just ask the Nittaly Lions or the Sycacuse Orangemen. (Okay, we all know he´s really a dumbbell.)

Congrats to Ohio State on their perfect season. Good luck next year.

Speaking as someone whose team (Nebraska) got trounced by them earlier this year, I think I can reasonably opine that they are at least as good as the bearded leprechauns who will be playing in Miami this January.

I´m not sure if they´d have gone unbeaten had they faced the pressure of playing for a title. The NCAA decided it would be best for me never to find out.

PS I have never, to my recollection, bet more than $5 on any sporting event, but I at least thought about it this time. I was quite confident that OSU would beat the spread of 3 1/2 in Columbus.

Gee, now the Bucks can go 13-0 in 2014 with the addition of that football powerhouse, Maryland, to the conference. And then 14-0 once that terror of the Big Least, Rutgers, joins. Sheldon Richardson knew what he was talking about: Big 10 football is "old man football."

College football is much more fun than pro. I adopted the Gators when I moved to FL and when Ohio State was behind I could imagine Urban Meyer clutching his chest and thinking, "Oh no, not again...." LOL. The Buckeyes played brilliantly. Blocking was the key. They block better than any college team and that´s what allows points to be scored. The unsung heroes in the trenches deserve recognition.

After Notre Dame gets pounded by the SEC champ in the BCS title game, OSU fans will be whining that they should have gotten the AP national championship. And there´s no sweeter sound than the cries of whining Buckheads.

(BTW, Sagarin has Ohio State ranked 14th this morning)

As I watched the Wolverines spazz around during the last quarter, I found my self cheering for the home team since neither was probably headed for a bowl game. Then I remembered what all those fans, friends and their families did during our really important game on Nov 6th. I´m over it now and would like to congratulate all of you that live in our basement.

Sorry all you L´Dot Buckeye fans but......

Enjoy the season, it´s gonna be a long, cold tough winter with the extra 55,000 unemployed in Ohio.

Cleveland and Cincy voted for the Wan, and you all get to enjoy the benefits!!
