    A reason to cheer for the Buckeyes:

    As TCU and Baylor keep winning. They will eventually face each other and one will remain in the 4th spot. However their season will be done while the Buckeyes will keep playing for the Big Ten title Game. Talks of the Buckeyes winning that game and jumping Baylor/TCU for the coveted 4th and final spot.

    When that happens it will force the Big 12 to deal with not having a conference championship game and hopefully BYU will be one of the teams they add.

    I expect DDD and YO to thank me later.. Publicly, and shamelessly cheer the buckeyes to victory..

    Will their hatred for the Buckeyes hinder this from happening? Or will their love for BYU joining the Big 12 be stronger??

    Swish......



    Oh, by all means DDD tell me again how tOSU should be upset with Urban's coaching as we torch Wis. with our 3rd string QB..

      • Nah, tOSU will jump them after treating Wisky like a directional Michigan school.

          • Yeah I guess one way to look at it is that the big Ohio State win gives the committee an out in the Baylor-TCU controversy -- they can just put Baylor and TCU at #5 and #6 (either order) and now they have a rationale for moving Ohio State up to #4. They can explain how impressive this Big 10 conference championship game is for Ohio State.

            Maybe this is good for BYU too.

              It may be. You leave them out after not having a CCG, and they might have incentive to expand if they won't let them have a game without 12 teams.

              I really think this is what is going to happen. It's the same as it's always been and tOSU will always get the benefit of the doubt over TCU or Baylor.

              It's a pretty impressive win for tOSU regardless. They're on their third stringer, they throw down 52 points, and their defense goes out there and ragdolls Wisconsin, who's been running it down the throat of the entire league for the last 2 months? It's an impressive win to me.

              • I served my mission in Memphis and spent some time on the University of Memphis campus (even went to a Memphis-Ole Miss game at Liberty Bowl stadium, which is nowhere near U of M campus. ... I believe Memphis beat Eli Manning in that game). I find the idea that Memphis would even be considered for Big 12 expansion beyond preposterous. Expansion is about football, and Memphis will never be a football school. Their football facilities don't even exist. With that said, I never thought TCU had a chance either, given that that Big12 already owned the DFW market, so what do I know?

                            • BYU clearly has some leverage now. Hopefully we play hardball on the rebroadcast rights!
