Why is Ohio State ranked #1?

Vegas39 · 10-03-15, 06:23 PM

Reminds me of FSU last year

Otters27 · 10-03-15, 06:27 PM

If OSU loses this game it will be Jones fault

daneblazer · 10-03-15, 06:28 PM

Except FSU dropped. These guys have no business being #1. Neither does Michigan state

Ghenghis Kahn · 10-03-15, 06:28 PM

everyone of espn fukks love to suck ohio state's cokk but they're overrated.

all i have to say is 1-9 ats for ohio state and michigan state combined this year.

jjgold · 10-03-15, 06:29 PM

so many teams pretty even

everyone will have at least 1 losss

FSU didn't drop until committee ranking and think same will happen to OSU

MUHerd37 · 10-03-15, 06:33 PM

They also have to play Michigan who will be highly ranked and have pitched 2 straight shutouts now.

CanuckG · 10-03-15, 06:35 PM

They should be 5th ranked at best

seaborneq · 10-03-15, 06:36 PM

They have proved it on the field. 12 or 13 straight wins will do that.

stealthyburrito · 10-03-15, 06:38 PM

Should've been bumped from the top spot after the near scare to NIU.

If they remain at 1 now the polls are a complete joke.

Who would you put at number 1? A team wins its last 12 or 13 games, the Big 10 conference championship, a playoff game, a national title and all of their games to start the season, who do YOU put ahead of them? Please................Do tell

TCU, Baylor, or Ole Miss if they win in the swamp tonight.

I'll take OSU against all 3 of those teams on a neutral field.

Ghenghis Kahn · 10-03-15, 06:49 PM

ohio state... michigan state... 1-9 ats

weakest #1 and #2 in the history of college football.

OSU scores 50+ on every single one of those teams.

Ghenghis Kahn · 10-03-15, 06:53 PM

seaboner are you a big10 guy? why are you getting so defensive? ohio state struggles every week. can you at least admit that they are overrated?

Nope SEC guy. But I know OSU's body of work is better than anybody's over the last 15 games. 0 losses.

Guessing so as they look average at best. TCU or Baylor should be #1

Problem is last year a moot point polls and committee base it on this year only

So you would leave OSU out of a playoff based on OOC games this year and early conference games by let me guess............Utah, TCU, Baylor, and Ole Miss?

That's the problem with the polls - voters think the way seaborner does and allow last season's results to sway their vote.

The committee doesn't appear to do that - if they did Fl. St. should've been a runaway #1 seed in the playoffs since they have a 25+ win streak

Exactly they at least differentiate that or at least did last year.

NO one said leave them out. They said and I agree they damn sure don't deserve to be #1 based on this years body of work.

CanuckG · 10-03-15, 07:08 PM

How would OSU put up 50+ on those teams and they struggle vs Indiana and score 34. MSU D would be too tough.

cankid · 10-03-15, 07:09 PM

lots of parity this year

If you are going by what teams have done THIS year, aren't those teams more impressive than OSU? Just leave OSU out and put in the teams that have played best thus far against OOC and early conference games..............because we ALL know how good and great teams are 4-5 into a new season

Missing point , I said like committee did last year with FSU they will drop OSU from #1 spot. Based on barely squeaking out wins and playing a very soft schedule. May not matter as way they are playing last few weeks not sure they beat Michigan or Michigan St

If OSU beats both of those teams by one point each, that will NOT be impressive enough. Knock them out of the top 25 too

Dude...the point of this thread is to discuss whether OSU should be ranked as the BEST team in the country at this point of the 2015 season.
