Herbie at it again
- Thread starter sss
- Start date
Saw it. Hernia blasting our non conference schedule and said the committee should take that into consideration in December. Galloway and Davis disagreed
And - his one-loss team with the best chance to make playoffs - you guessed it. His alma mater.
Speaking of Jeopardy, an odd acting bartender is crushing it and is near 400 grand.
I learned all I need to know about him last year. Initially he comes off as being objective, but the guy is a homer and a Penn State hater. You could just see the anger on his face and in his voice last year when he thought there was a chance that Penn State might get in over Ohio State. If they come for Gameday, I hope the crowd let's that crew have it big time.

And almost lost to Baylor? That loss is looking worse every week and Herbie is trying his best to spin it in another direction.
Can you imagine Blackledge pulling this shit? I wish Gameday would stay the eff home, assholes
If we beat them in Columbus that will end their chances. Take care of our own business and the rest will fall into place.
If Alabama, Clemson, Washington, Oklahoma and Ohio State all win out, Ohio State is on the outside looking in. No way you could take Ohio State over Oklahoma after losing to them by 15 at home. Yeah the Iowa St lose is ugly, but both with one lose, head to head wins.
As others have stated here before I believe Herbie is fearful of the resurgent PSU because PSU is a threat to his beloved bucknuts. He's seeing it on the field and now in recruiting.
It's never too early to start shilling for the Buckeyes even if it's disguised as criticism of PSU.
So what, is he on the committee? Everyone is permitted an opinion. They pay him for it. Good for him.
His mouth influences the committee that's the issue
Just go back and look at herbs glowing review of PSU in recent years since we are being objective. Like last yr vs OSU when he lied and said 1/2 the student section was gone. This is 2 weeks after saying PSU was thee story in CFB. He's a Dick
That was a really objective bit. 
They had 2 guys from Ohio State out of the 4 discussing it. And a SEC shill named Booger.

Win and it doesn't matter who says what.
Did Herbstreit, Fowler, or anyone at ESPN ever comment on the strangeness of KH's commentary during Haley's TD return against OSU -- long awkward silence followed by overt sadness juxtaposed with an enthused CF and rocking atmosphere? I always gave him the benefit of the doubt for objectivity until then.
You've been around long enough to know this isn't true. Remember 1994. When the OSU coach said in the preseason that anyone who runs through the Big10 undefeated should be national champs. Then changed the story after the season and said the conference was down. Before the Big10 it was our weak eastern schedule. Now it's our weak OOC schedule. What exactly is OSUs great OOC win?
The discussion is already being framed around which 1 loss team will get in. A much more likely scenario than having 4 undefeated teams is having two or three 1 loss teams battling for the last spot(s). The just win mantra should apply to all teams, not just certain teams.
^^^THIS^^^ He must have croaked inside when we beat them last year, with the realization that that won't be the last time.
OSU's loss won't hurt them. If they win out, they will be in. If we win out, we will be in.
When are you people going to get it, Smith on the inside and Herbstreit on the outside. Who do you think runs college football? We will beat OSU in Columbus and they will still get in the playoff just watch!!
I really don't understand why folks get so bent out of shape over what he says (or any supposed analyst for that matter). It gives them exactly what they want.
Ok, enough publicity given to them by me now...
The team controls it's own destiny and that's all that matters.

Who cares about non-conference. If you can beat UM, OSU, MSU, and probably Wisc., that's more than impressive.
