#FakePlayoff

[itsofficial101]

Seems that the talking heads are working to get 2 BLOWOUT LOSS Ohio St who would have a 3rd if not for fluke blocked kick and who has FLAT OUT QUIT in 2 of their last 14 games (31-0 Clemson, and 55-24 to unranked Iowa) back into their #FakePlayoff.

If this would occur, using exactly the opposite criteria that got them selected last year as a 1 loss division runner up over a 2 loss conference champ that beat them head to head, there is but one conclusion. Their AD on the selection committee is a conflict of interest that makes the "playoff" illegitimate. There would be no real champion. I wouldn't even bother tuning in to their invitational tournament. It is corrupt.

How fake is the playoff if Ohio St only gets in on B1G biased officiating stopping Wisconsin's final drive? Clearly Wisconsin was driving, then a fake hold on Wisconsin and an ignored OBVIOUS hold on the Wisconsin receiver changes the entire game.

Ohio State fan Gus Johnson is happy though.

tOSU DB's again holding almost every pass play - no calls.

on last FG drive for tOSU the announcers talked about a "great block" by WR. it was a block in the back that converted the 1st down.

cannot believe the announcers are now literally playing tOSU for playoff. their not supposed to be fans.

Ohio State is not getting in. That win was too ugly. Bama will get in. They won’t want OSU to get blown out by Clemson again.

Totally undeserving of playoff spot. Smoked by Oklahoma. Torn to pieces by......Iowa. Lol. What a joke. Don’t pass the eye test at all. Not to mention the committee last year set a president that conference champ doesn’t mean chit.

Having said all that, they’ll probably get in, but they do NOT deserve it. At all. Those two losses are just too pathetic on their resume.

I'm no OSU fan, but that was a tackle by the Wiscy OL-man. At the point of the play. Will get called 9 out of 10 times.

Having said that, there also was a hold on the Wiscy receiver so that should've been offsetting and a replay of 1st and 10.

The hold on Wisconsin was a legit take down. On the back end, the Wisconsin receiver was hit early causing a PI. Penalties offset, still first down.

1st and 10 not 1st and 20. 20 yards for a first down ended the game.

Wawawawawawa. Where did you lose your pacifier, baby? Every since Wisky knocked two of our QBs unconscious in the same game and celebrated, they have been on the top of my spit list

Correct. They also beat UM, MSU, Wiscy and you.

Why didn't the network show that wr bring tackeled on replay? There was an injury timeout. You could hear fans booing the replay then chanting BS. They replayed the OL hold twice.

 

[colt21]

“Flukey” win over PSU though

 

[Player2BNamedL8r]

Correct. They also beat UM, MSU, Wiscy and you.

So, to your point, the B1G doesn’t deserve to get a team into the playoffs. Of course, that cheating sack of shit AD of yours will make sure that doesn’t happen.

Listen, I despise BIG officials, but if there was going to be a “fix” last night it would have been for Wiscy. With a win they are in....no debate...OSU..not so much. The BIG will get their lunch handed to them tonight and not be in...NO WAY they bounce a one loss Bama for this OSU team.

There was a fix last night. We watched it with our own eyes. Reread the game thread, dozens of posters commented repeatedly at the stuff Ohio St was getting away with and the call that the officials ended the game with by totally ignoring a Wisconsin WR being tackled before the ball got there.

The thing some people somehow don't understand about this conference is that while other conferences might have used the officials to protect their top team, the B1G will always use their officials to protect Ohio St and Michigan.
