	Since Ohio State gets the annual "free ride" to the national championship each year, I wonder who they will play in the upcoming season. It's really amazing, Ohio State has gone to the National Championship game the last two years and gotten their butts totally drubbed, because, as all true college football fans knew, they didn't belong. What really shocked me was when one of the bright commentators made his brilliant prediction late in the 4th quarter. He said, "these buckeyes are young and will have almost everyone back next season. Don't be surprised if they're back in this game next year!" Now think about that! The Bucks are getting humiliated once again, and this dumba$$ is plugging for them for next season. This crap is really getting ridiculous. And then, to add insult to injury, the Rose Bowl demands that a Big 10 team come to Pasadena. You talk about joke city. I suggest that we just go ahead and schedule Ohio State for the game (why the drama), and draw straws for their opponent. At least their would be a little honest and integrity that way.

	I agree totally. I would love to see Georgia beat them in the Championship. SEC 3, Ohio State 0. That would be hilarious. I think the Bowls should be like this: BCSNCG: Top 2 teams Rose: SEC vs. Pac-10 Sugar: Big-12 vs. Big-10 Orange: ACC vs. Big East Fiesta: At large vs. At large

	What would be nice is for the people who vote in the polls to realize the "strength" of Ohio State's schedule and rank them accordingly. Is it too much to ask for the voters to be impartial in their analysis? If they took their jobs a little more seriously, then we would have a shot at getting a decent matchup in the NC game. Of course, I still think that an SEC team would win it all if it got to the game, but I don't have to be impartial, I don't vote. ;-}

	you do realize that in 2006 the Buckeyes beat the #2 team in the Nation TWICE (Texas and Michigan). Last season was the one year where their schdule has been weak. this season they play USC on the road. And for the next 10 years they have home and home series locked up with USC, Miami, Oklahoma, Virginia Tech, and Tennessee. Last year's schedule was weak b/c they had shceduled the Washington game years before when they wee actually worth a damn. Ohio State plays their shcedule and does what needs to be done to get to the title game...wins!!!

	i totally agree with the poster backing the OSU schedule. everyone in the country schedules a tune up game but rarely see any of them schedule a tough OOC game year in and year out. the ones that have been crying the most have been the georgia fans.....but u have to win to get to the game. no one was complaining that the OSU schedule was weak when they beat texas and michigan in 06. some people have to realize that the schedules are made years in advance.

	The Trojans will play Oklahoma this year. Osu after an early seson loss to USC and later, one Big ten loss, will not even see the Rose bowl. Even though they are likely to be a better football team this year than the last two.

	I'm fairly confident a few other teams had their chance to make it to the big game last year and choked it away! I'm guessing the team you follow was one of them. Unfortunately we live in a time with no playoff system so get used to watching teams you don't follow making it to the B(Bull) C(Crap) S(System) Nat'l Championship game. It's the nature of the beast! Go Bucks!
