ESPN Projects PSU to Rose vs Oregon

[Relayer]

The Cotton Bowl is an 11am local start and the same day as the CFP Semis. Add in playing Memphis with a half empty stadium and it doesn't sound very desirable.

Hebert 386 yards, 2 TD, Int

Wade, 5 forced fumbles

The Rose is a far better trip for the fans than the Cotton - in my humble opinion.

True but I also find Rose Bowl to be a complicated trip. We had a great time but so much to do, so many choices to make if you get out there and try to do some things.

Send Nichole Auerbach to the gym. She could stand to lose a few.

PELOTON TIME !

 

[ILLINOISLION]

You do realize Penn State’s staring QB missed the Rutgers game? How many teams would lose their starter at QB without any hiccups?

Well, against Rutgers? Most teams!

 

[Waltwam]

Well, against Rutgers? Most teams!

I voted for IllinoisLion to start at QB against Rutgers, just to get a feel for playing a scrimmage against a horrible team, but Franklin would not even consider it!

 

[JJTopp99]

Herbstreit has Wisconsin going to the Rose Bowl.

How surprising!






(Not!)

Well that was fast at least.

CJF knew that if I was in State College he could have tracked me down in line at The Creamery!

Lame

 

[SpartanJD]

In all honesty Wisconsin is more deserving

They mention the Arizona state loss of Oregon’s but. No mention of Illinois loss.

They were just much more impressive losing to an Illinois team that lost by 19 to 3-9 Northwestern. Can’t wait for Oregon to smoke them by 3 touchdowns ala the Not Deserving University getting smoked in bowls they didn’t deserve.

Hey genius...

Team A loses @ OSU by 31, and loses @ 6-6 Illinois
Team B loses @ OSU by 11, and loses @ 10-2 Minnesota

Who is more deserving to go to Rose Bowl?

Honest question. No bias, respect your opinion. Who played better against Ohio State overall, Wisconsin or us? I think Wisconsin did, by a smidge. I also think PSU should go to the Rose Bowl. Overall body of work.

Honest answer. US.
Whether Wisconsin fans showed up or not is irrelevant, it was a neutral field (not the shoe). They had more game tapes to look at, they had a second chance to play them.
Everyone keeps throwing out their losses like they don't count.

2019 Ohio State vs Wisconsin
72 - 28
44 point differential

2019 Ohio State vs Penn State
28 - 17
11 point differential

I feel they performed better vs Michigan and Minnesota. We performed better vs Iowa and Purdue. MSU is close to a wash as it's home vs away.
Both very good teams, both have a case, but if Ohio State is what we are judging them on, I don't think there's much of a question.

Then there's the Illinois loss. which honestly should be the end of it.

With all due respect, go fvck yourself.

they benefited from the Fields injury. OSU offense no longer the same according to Herbie. if no injury the difference would have been similar to the game in CBUS.. we played a full strength OSU team and Wisky got 3 key OSU defenders out for at least half the game and a QB who could no longer run their playbook.
