Some writer in LA tweeted yesterday that Ohio State hadn't beat anyone good this year. When I looked at the schedule all of the "big" wins are against Miami (FL), Penn State, Iowa and Michigan, all 7-5 teams. Illinois is 6-5 but has a road date @ Fresno State this weekend. Thus, OSU's best win, of course when looking at the opponent's record, is the 8-4 Ohio Bobcats. Wow - didn't see that one coming and it's a shame the way Iowa folded in the home stretch of the season.
1. I pay virtually no attention to tweeters, most bloggers and people who say they can predict the future (or believe in UFOs).
2. ONE stat these people always miss or never factor in, OSU 11-1 means they dished out 11 losses to their opponents. It reduces the opponents winning percentages.
3. There will be 3 B10 teams in the top 10, they were pretty good this year.
