I mean I hate Ohio State and all, but Penn State is a bad football team. Maybe the Big 10 shouldn't have gotten any teams in the playoff

Lol, yes, they held everything in place for one week (Clemson also lost AT HOME to a huge underdog the same week) but obviously that loss dropped us from 2nd to 6th in the long run. There's no way Michigan wouldn't have been #3 if they beat Ohio State.

edit: actually they would have been #2 ahead of Clemson. So yeah. I think that loss hurt us a bit!

The only people who are going to be upset about going to the Orange Bowl instead of the Rose Bowl are the stereotypical old Michigan fans everyone hates, so I guess this forum can finally be united in something related to Michigan. Penn State gets skullfucked by USC while Michigan has a far more winnable game in a far more important recruiting area, oh no!!!!

Bull loving poo poo, how does UW get hosed to #4 compared to Ohio State, they didn't even make their god drat championship game. I guess the hope is that the conference championships are revised here so that their best teams actually get to play...
