Ohio State won't get past MSU in the Big Ten championship game. They've never played a defense like the Spartans will bring. FSU vs Auburn in the BCS championship game0

Why would ANYONE think Duke would win over FSU? Only way that happens is if this legal crap throws them off their game.0

Checking in from the Pacific NW, I've only seen FSU on TV twice and, like OSU, I wasn't impressed either time. I wouldn't be surprised to see MSU knock off OSU at all. Although I'm burned out of the SEC, I'd like to see a Mizz/FSU game and Mizz to win it all.
I like this guy. MIZZOU BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!0 -

It's a game and there's no series play to mitigate for anomalies.
I don't think Duke will win, but of course there's a chance. Maybe famis rapis will be be off. Maybe the D-line will eat bad eggs that morning. Who knows.
Were the Grizzlies better than the Heat last season? They were over the first 12 games, and beat them head to head. Lulz.0 -
SEC top 3 or 4 teams > most conferences top 3 or 4 teams.
SEC bottom 18 teams (sarcasm) < most conferences bottom teams
I don't think Bama makes their way back in. I could see Auburn jumping tOSU if tOSU struggles against MSU.
It would be cool if Bama could win one by actually going undefeated once.0 -

Buckeyes vs. ??
Whatever the match-up, it will be a good game. FSU has a good offense and Auburn, I think, only won on a fluke, because Alabama was playing to win, not playing for OT. Let us not forget Missouri could go to the National Championship if they were to beat Auburn and FSU was to lose which is highly unlikely, but anything can happen.
I'm a Buckeye at heart, but even I will say, Michigan State will be our toughest challenge. We have cut it close quite a bit this season. I would have rather seen us go to the Rose Bowl, but in the end, it just doesn't matter. It's only football.0 -

Did anyone think Appalachian State would beat Michigan a few years ago... 07 I think? Did anyone think that the US would win Gold in Hockey at the 80 Olympics? I mean anything can happen in sports. Do I think it will happen... no. Do I think it is possible... I do.0 -
WHY WOULD ANYBODY THINK DUKE WOULD BE 10-2 in regular season play this season?Why would ANYONE think Duke would win over FSU? Only way that happens is if this legal crap throws them off their game.
There is a whole reason we actually watch football.
And "legal crap" is a pretty crass wy to put rape allegations./0 -
When are SEC fans going to get it.The only legit conclusion to the BCS is Bama winning a 3-peat national championship without playing another conference champion in any of the three years. So hopefully FSU and OSU lose, so we can get a Bama-Auburn rematch.
NOBODY wants another freaking Bama/Barn matchup.
Guess what ya'll lost. Forget it.
I can't stand FSU or tOSU.
But in order to stop such bullcrap from happneing I'll root fot both to win.

I just can't fathom rooting for an entire conference.... It makes zero sense in my head.0

One needs only to look at the past Saturday to see who is the better team and who is more deserving of a title shot. Auburn beating the #1 team by 6, and Ohio State squeaking by an unranked team by 1. Furthermore, put any of the top four, possibly 6, teams from the SEC west in Ohio States schedule and they go undefeated. A weak schedule should not be rewarded.
Auburn beat Ga (currently ranked #22) by 6. Ohio State beat Wisconson (currently ranked #21) by 7. But lets look at the rest of the schedule. That was Ohio States only game against a currently ranked team. And they are not even in the top 20. Auburn has beaten 3 currently ranked teams. Including the then #1, currently #3 Tide. Auburns only loss is to a team better than ANYONE Ohio State has played to this point (#15 LSU). And while Ohio State has the ability to add to it's resume with a win over #10 (which would only be their second win over a ranked team), Auburn gets a chance at it's fourth ranked win, and it's second top 5 win IN A ROW. Which would be two wins that far surpase in quality what would be Ohio States ONLY quality win.
When Auburns schedule is THAT superior, and their only loss comes to a team better than any team Ohio State played, there is no argurment for Ohio State deserving to play in the title game. Auburn would have wiped the floor with Ohio State's schedule. Auburn is easily one of the top two in the country, and if they beat Mizzou (which is a tall order in and of itself), they are the deserving school.0 -

And then one notices that Auburn barely scraped by Miss St and Wash St.
Auburn might have wiped the floor with Ohio State's schedule. Or lost a few times. Maybe Auburn would be 9-3 in the B1G. They are a few plays away from 8-4 as is. Auburn didn't play a single team on Ohio State's schedule, so it's kinda ridiculous to speculate.0 -

I was about to make a similar comment. This ^ all the way.0 -

^ This is the best that you come back with... :laugh:
Edit: How is this different then most other schools. All schools are going to do what is best for them... not how it effects a conference as a whole so unity... ok... :laugh:0 -
If OSU beats MSU I do not think that Auburn will jump in the #2 spot. Even with Auburn having the strength of schedule and IF they beat Mizzou (being ranked with what they are) I dont see the polls putting a one loss SEC team over an undefeated BIG10 team... But also lets not forget that FSU could easily lose in the ACC championship game as well which would bump everyone up one and it could be OSU and Auburn for the title. Or even both FSU and OSU losing therefore putting in 2 SEC teams in the title game. Damn... that playoff needs to get here sooner then later.
You are so right on with this and couldn't agree more about the playoff system! WDE!!!0 -

I didn't say we were better. I definitely don't think that way. Just messin' with you. I honestly just don't get it, and never will. I went to a school for a school, not for a conference. I can't see any logical reasoning where I would ever root for different conference rivals. I guess I "could" have conference unity, but since it doesn't make any logical sense for one to do so, I prefer not to.0 -

no butthurt here. I was always on board for the right reasons. (unless you actually get the LHN) you have no idea how nice it is to have every game televised no matter where you are. Seriously, it's so much nicer over here that I can't even fathom how bad it was back where we were.0 -

If you lived in Mississippi (back to the OP) would you rather live vicariously thru LSU and Alabama or root for Ole Miss or Miss State? If you didn't have vested interest in either, I'd be rooting for the whole conference too.
Living in Jackson is hell, as there is no good local school to pull for. How that city ended up without a major university near it is curious to me (I grew up in LA about 90 mins away). Of course, Jackson MS isn't the cultural mecca that a city like Baton Rouge is...(sarcasm).0 -

Ok but explain how the Big 12 is a crummy conference.... What was so bad about it? Is the only reasoning just the TV rights is your reasoning for the comment?0 -

Being an Anti Conference homer gal, I do have to answer your question with the obvious. While I don't say the Big 12 is "crummy" (only the Big East IMO is truly crummy).. when was the last time a Big 12 team won a national title? It's been a while.
I LOATHE "team SEC" people. Strongly. I think it's dumb. I think "Conference unity" is as dumb as giving 5th place trophies.
But you can see how a UGA fan who hasn't won anything in a while would be hanging off the nuts of Bama.
Maybe it would be different for ACC, Big 12, Big East and blah blah fans if a team from their conference had won the MNC game for many years straight......0 -

Most from the upper states, do not understand the SEC and their fans.
Used to consider myself from the upper states till I graduated from AU.
Football is a game of inches and taken advantage of opportunities (what others call luck)
Just one old man's opinion ....0
