Disappointed like everyone else, but not because of Alabama, Clemson and Washington making it. I actually think Washington should have made it over us, whatever spot they took. But, Ohio State getting selected over PSU is not making any sense for the reasons we have said repeatedly. Won the big ten east. Won the big ten title. 2 wins over top ten teams. The biggest victory against a top ten team all year. Victory head to head and a 9-game winning streak. One of the ESPN announcers today made a good point. I may have gotten him wrong and can't give you the exact words, but if I understood correctly, the gist of his point was that if the roles were reversed with PSU and OSU, then OSU would have gotten in. Unless I got him wrong, I think he was right. If Penn State went 11-1 with its only loss to OSU, but beat Michigan, Nebraska and Oklahoma- who thinks PSU would have gotten in over OSU; if OSU won 9 straight, won the Big Ten East and then beat Wisconsin for the Big Ten title? Not me. Now, that doesn't address Michigan's claim to the fourth spot, but OSU should not be there over PSU. Period.
