The Ohio State that lost to Virginia Tech is not the Ohio State that demolished Michigan State, Alabama, and Oregon. You people are whiny as gently caress. Maybe you should be complaining about FSU getting into the playoff instead, despite being undefeated. It isn't Ohio State that undeservingly got into the playoff. Clearly, they were a better team than Alabama and Oregon. Both of whom were favored by 7-10 points, I think.

ohio state lost to virginia tech lol

Oh man attendance is totally indicative of quality of play.

We played more top 25 teams that year that stayed ranked than LSU or Georgia. Suck that SEC cock all you want I can't really see how you can say it makes sense from losing in week 13 to title game based on the SEC title game that they almost lost to Tennessee. Also Georgia didn't win poo poo that year, no division title, no conference title, and they played a weak SEC schedule so umm yeah I think an 11 win conference champion deserved to "jump" them.

on the other hand Virginia Tech deserves nothing so it gets nothing

Joe Paterno wakes up, to learn that the news has broken, someone has learned about the cover up. The curtain is going to fall on his reputation. He can fight it, but... it's only a matter of time. He is ruined. And then he looks outside. Fire. He is in Hell.

This is how he wakes up every day now.

A.) good

B.) still not actually "punishment", more "thing that happened"

Claiming a dude who actually played in your conference and led his team to a title in it is, in fact, much more reasonable than claiming a guy who sat for a year and then transferred. But good counter-argument.

actually no, claiming a guy who played a single season in your conference after playing the majority of his career in the ACC is not legitimate at all

I was gonna be all "here's a cool trick kick Vine from Wisconsin" and then in spoiler tags "it's a running back" but he's a ripped black guy so I think it would lose some of the element of surprise.

one step closer to Jon Bois' dream of an athletic wunderkind choosing to be a kicker so we can see 80 yard field goals and poo poo

Cricket's a fun sport. I work with a Pakistani and he got me into playing it last year with what I assume is western Virginia's entire Pakistani population. I look hilariously out of place if you just drive by and look at us playing it.

they're probably not commonly available but y'all need one of those crazy cameras they use for determining LBWs

The fanbase in Ames is so jaded and angry that I don't think anyone is even bothering to watch the videos the AD is putting out about spring practices. And any comments from the coaches about guys performing well are met with anger and resentment because we fell for that the past couple of years. It was a really stupid decision to keep Rhoads around this year. Talk about a fall from grace. ISU fans don't even demand that much. Just beat your FCS opponent, be competitive in most games, and win a couple. Basically as long as we're not in last place nobody is gonna mind much. But we've been in last place for two years now.

honestly when your FCS opponent is North Dakota State you should really be prepared to lose
