Anyone else watching it? Who's your pick?

I go to a Big Ten school (Univ. of WI-Madison) so I gotta pick OSU. LSU just tied the game up 10 apiece, though.

This is the only time you'll ever see me rooting for OSU, mind you :p

Well since I go to VT and hate LSU because of the fact that VT beat both Ohio and LSU in computer rankings but some how ended up third because of the other BCS 2/3 vote. I am going for Ohio. The BCS is dumb for letting LSU jump us in the rankings just because they beat us earlier in the season. Granted it was a bad lose for us but still there are always reasons for the lose and the computer rankings factor that in. Anyways ya, I hope Ohio destroys them.

31-10 right now and I'm off to bed. Can we officially say overrated now? Ohio didn't deserve to be in this game...

Go SEC!

(Hopefully I won't wake up tomorrow and regret this post)

^^^You may yet. OSU just intercepted and scored - it's a 2 TD game.

I don't hold much hope, though, and can't say I care too much (I'm not that big a fan of OSU :p)

Well, that's that - 38-24, but really the game was over at 38-17. Not very good showing two years in a row. What was last year's score? 41-14 or something like that?

Yea keep spouting off the whole "ohio didn't deserve to be here" just because LSU won, really intelligent.

Thanks! Of course the AP also agreed, guess they are a bunch or idiots, too? ;)

LSU is No. 1, Ohio State drops to No. 5 in final AP poll

I don't think they didn't deserve to be there because they lost - it was because they were dominated for the second year in a row.

Of course they are.

If they were any good at their job there wouldn't have been so many No. 1 and No. 2 "upsets" this year.

I'm also not sure how a team that outgains you in total yardage is considered "dominated".

A dropped TD (Robiske 2ndQ), 5 stupid personal fouls, 2 picks thrown, 1 fumble lost and a kicked blocked.

Ohio State gave this one away.

------------------

This completes a year of choke jobs for me (and the rest of NE Ohio) in sports.

Last year, OSU loses to Flordia.

OSU loses to Flordia in the finals in BB.

The Cavs are swept by the Spurs in the finals.

The Indians, up 3-1, lose 3 straight to lose the ALCS.

The Browns fail to beat a struggling Cincinnati team to make the playoffs.

And this year OSU loses the national championship game again. :(

2 picks and 1 fumble and the blocked kick - most people would credit LSU for those rather than fault OSU. LSU scored when they needed to and OSU did not, I don't think raw total of yards means squat. Putting points up are not putting points up is the difference between dominating and being dominated.
