>looked like the better team
>muh yards

You're the same kind of person who thinks Hillary should be president because she won the popular vote right?

I;m not talking about just stats, I mean watching the game Wisconsin looked better and probably should have won, and I would expect them to likely win a rematch based on that game and the rest of the season

I wouldn't. They played their asses out in Camp Randall and it still wasn't enough to beat OSU, in Columbus or on a neutral ground they would have no chance.

He's gonna get the Oregon job next season.

Its too bad Wisconsin's kicker injured himself

>muh memes

He should never get a HC job again. He's a fantastic assistant coach but a catastrophic HC, I think three different tries were enough.

Is this the comfiest stadium in the western US?

This.

I also feel the same way about Chad Morris, who is currently getting buzz for Baylor (!!) despite finishing 5-7.

>Rose Bowl not USC vs Michigan

>Battlefrog Fiesta Bowl
capitalism was a mistake

The Big Ten should get 4 easy major bowl wins if those end up being the matchups

Nah this is.

If the Big Ten champ gets fucked out of the playoff berth I assume they would go to the Rose Bowl, is there any reason to suggest the Rose Bowl would pass on the Champ for a division 3rd place finisher?

never underestimate the power of Judaism, lad

Ahh, the traditional Rose Bowl match-up of Penn State vs Colorado.

Wisconsin beat USC in their bowl last year so would they want a rematch f that?

Wis were coming off of 2 weeks of rest and prep as well. Same with Penn state the very next week. When was the last time a team had to go up against 2 teams away that both had a bye the week before? If you think penn or wis is a better team that osu you are fucked in the head.

Is there any actual data to suggest the bye is helpful, its just as likely that it adds rust

I think Wisconsin is very likely better than OSU, I do not think PSU is, that game was a complete fluke win

Herman is going to burn Texas to the ground. Screencap this.

>I think Wisconsin is very likely better than OSU
t. Wisconsin fan

>worse record
>head to head loss
>couldn't beat Michigan
>they're somehow better tho

lolno

You forgot that OSU skullfucked Nebraska by 60 points while Wisconsin needed overtime to beat them.

I'm looking at this from a higher level, not just simple W's and L's, college football teams just do not play enough for us to really have a good idea of which teams are the best off such limited info as you are trying to do

Obviously we do not know for sure, but seeing how OSU looked against Wisconsin, and how they often struggled against middling teams, I'd say they are probably the 3rd best Big Ten team after Michigan and Wisconsin, of course we will never know for sure because NCAA football just doesn't let us see much play out on the field so we have to work on very limited info

The fiesta bowl is passing on a conference champ for a 3rd place team.

He said comfiest, not cultist

The Fiesta Bowl does not choose who it gets this year, the rankings do

Penn State is gonna rhythmically slap you so hard that your opinion won't matter at all m8

Do you honestly think that?
Wisc 17 PSU 6

You have exactly zero arguments for why Wisconsin is the better team my man.

>how OSU looked against Wisconsin
Yeah they beat them in Camp Randall. Sure supports your argument.

>struggled against middling teams
Wisconsin needed overtime to beat Nebraska.

>3rd best after Michigan and Wisconsin
...except they beat them both

You are working under the assumption that the best team wins, thats very often not the case, especially with similarly matched teams. You are way too confident based on the tiny amount of info you are choosing to use

By literally every single metric out there, Ohio State is the better team. You talk about struggling to beat "middling teams" when Wisconsin almost lost to Georgia State for fuck's sake.

>UW chokes in the P12 title game
>We're treated to a Bama/OSU/Clemson/Wisconsin playoff

Way to keep the ratings up on the west coast, committee.

Its not the committee's fault the west coast is bad at football

USC would be fantastic in the playoffs but those chucklefucks just had to lose to shitty Utah.

If everyone wins and the committee does their job we should get a UW vs UW and Bama vs OSU playoff games and Clemson can go fuck themselves and their mid major conference schedule

It's now the Playstation Fiesta Bowl.

Decent projections but I'm not hyped by these NY6, semi finals apart.

Clemson is the 2014 FSU, they play like ass but it's hard to argue keeping them out of the playoffs. I think everyone agrees they'll get buttfucked in the semis.

I understand your reasoning. if I can say OSU is a better team than penn even though they got beat why not the same with any team that OSU beat?

>very often not the case

the better team on gameday will find a way to win. And more than often its the better team not on gameday.

What would you say the chances are that Chip Kelly comes back to Oregon next season?

>the better team on gameday will find a way to win. And more than often its the better team not on gameday.
When you have pretty evenly matched teams such as Wisc/OSU/Mich the best team will win as little as 55% of the time. There is a fucking lot of randomness involved in sports man

Penn does have the head to advantage over OSU, but they have shittier record, they lost to an unranked team, and they got absolutely trounced by Michigan, so OSU has a legitimate case to claim to be better. Wisconsin has nothing.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA wait wut

>trips

Make Oregon Great Again
Praise Kek

49ers won't keep him around. He's proven himself to be a failed NFL coach. Oregon will give him anything he wants to come back he's beloved here. I think it could happen.

Except OSU's win over Wisconsin felt like a fluke to people who actually watched it, just as PSU's over OSU did. Anyone watching either of those games had the feeling the better team lost

Battle Frog already went out of business?

Here's hoping Sony sponsoring a major bowl means new NCAA games.

>Except OSU's win over Wisconsin felt like a fluke to people who actually watched it
Can you actually tell me why? And not just "they had more yards", I mean actual argument.

Considering people here are arguing about "observational fluke wins" how does this system get fixed so it's more clear, instead of the >muh feels argument

>a fucking leaf

Because Wisconsin outplayed OSU most of the game and only allowed it to become tied because of some late spaghetti and a lack of a kicker due to injury
Having said this, these are very similar teams, whichever one is better, it is not by much, If they played ten times I doubt one would win more than 6

This faggot gets it.

>outplayed
You keep throwing this word around but it means jack shit since it's such a vague term. I think OSU wins 6 out of 10 in Camp Randall and 10 out of 10 in Columbus.

You can't, thats the point of sports. If the best team won every time it would be predictable as fuck and not interesting (see the NBA)
Arguments about fluke wins are only for purpose of arguing who is better or who you think will win a future game, I don't think anyone is saying fluke wins shouldn't count or anything like that

>and 10 out of 10 in Columbus.
literally made me lol

Reminder that the one on the left won his conference before Harbaugh

Not an argument.

I meant for the rankings. Is there a way to make it more simple or is college ball just one of those things where it's always up in the air

This year's Washington team might just be the greatest team to ever play college football. Dead serious. We will run the table and defeat Bama by at least 2 TDs. Cap this fucking post

> a fucking moron

If it were not for a freak holding penalty against Wisconsin (they least penalized team in the country) on their last drive of regulation they would have very likely gotten a game winning FG. You should feel really fucking lucky to have stole that game, and not at all confident about winning a potential rematch

Holy shit, I didn't know Wisconsin had so many autistic fans. Maybe it's the fetal alcohol syndrome from all of the fucking bars in that shit state.

Anyway, Penn State is going to the CFP or the Rose Bowl and there's nothing you faggots can do about it. Can't wait for an easy tune-up game against Wisconsin.

WE ARE!

Badgers haven't won in Columbus in 14 years.

This has to be one of the dumbest arguments in sports. "They played better". If OSU had a higher score at the end of the game, then they win. That is the only measurable value that matters in football.

Wisconsin had two key turnovers nullified because idunnolol. I'd feel pretty damn confident about a rematch.

That is well short of 10 games

>That is the only measurable value that matters in football
Not when trying to predict future outcomes or hypothetical matchups

and by that logic we should be eliminating OSU from playoff consideration for not being able to win their division as thats really all that matters, they couldn't win a 7 team division

>Wisconsin had two key turnovers nullified because idunnolol
What?

Wining the division is not the only requirement to make the playoff. Nice bait.

I love how Wisconsin fans think their team is so great when they have two conference losses and their best win is over a 7-4 LSU. Like nigga, win a game, nigga, beat a good team.

Wisconsin literally haven't beaten anyone all year. Their best wins this year are eking out a 2 point victory against Les Miles' LSU and needing an overtime to beat Nebraska. The only reason they're even ranked this high is because they LOST to good teams.

It used to be.

First quarter, Ohio State forced a fumble and returned the ball to midfield, for some reason the refs ruled the ball touched the sideline even though there was no clear evidence of that. Wisconsin kept the posession and scored a TD that drive. I don't know about the second turnover he's talking about.

>Wining the division is not the only requirement to make the playoff.
Exactly my point. There is more to college football than just who wins and loses

Name me a time the committee chose a 2 loss conference champ over a 1-loss non conference champ
PROTIP: YOU CAN'T

When?

Wisconsin has 3 wins vs currently ranked teams, and will likely have 4 after next week. How many other teams will have 4 going into the post season?

A team's strength of schedule is one of the most pertinent considerations for the committee in making its selections.[30] Other factors that the committee weighs are conference championships, team records, and head-to-head results,[7] plus other points such as injuries and weather.[31] Unlike the BCS system, the AP Poll, Coaches' Poll, and the Harris Poll, computer rankings are not used to make the selections.[3][15] Advanced statistics and metrics are expected to be submitted to the committee, though like other analytics, they have no formal role in the decision. Committee members are not required to attend games.

There was pretty fucking obvious evidence of that. To claim that was even an ambiguous call is disingenuous

>Nebraska, LSU, Iowa
Yeah, not exactly setting the world on fire. I'd be a bit worried about a Penn State team that is scoring at an insane clip and has beaten the likes of Iowa and MSU by far more than you.

>We have 3 wins over 21,22, and 23
Wow m8, your team is so good I mean just look at those 3 quality wins

Ohio State

Still way better than almost anyone else
> and has beaten the likes of Iowa and MSU by far more than you.
and got blown the fuck out by Michigan and lost to a fucking ACC team
Advanced metrics and Vegas all suggest Wisconsin will win, of course both teams are good and could possibly win but its safe to say Wisconsin is more likely to win than not.
Should be a good game

I don't think you can leave a team who beat #5, #6, #7, and #23 from the playoff. No one else has a resume like that

exactly, the Big Ten should get 2 teams in the playoffs

>lost to a fucking ACC team
An ACC team that has 2 more top ten wins than you do bitch

Root for Colorado to beat Washington then

>arbitrary metrics

Oh, I am (though I think Washington is more deserving than Clemson, though Washington intentionally scheduled fucking no one OOC, so I am kind of torn)

lol, yeah they got blown out by michigan at the big house with no starting linebackers playing then proceeded to win the next 8 games

>Quality wins are arbitrary metrics
Oh yes I forgot we were living in MUH QUALITY LOSS land

What did they mean by this?

youtu.be/XdLbn34Q_gM?t=16m16s

Show me the "pretty fucking obvious evidence". I just can't see it anywhere, now note the ruling on the field was a recovered fumble so it should've been upheld.

>that wiscy qb
wew

They're showing that wisconsin literally doesn't have an offense

Wisconsin has a more balanced offense?
