But a higher ranked PSU is better for OSU before we play them, win or lose!I've seen his shtick before. If you can't see it, I don't know what to tell you. Herbie talks up teams if it will ultimately help OSU..and talks down teams if it will ultimately help OSU. He's about as two faced as they come.
The bitch on Herbie's broadcast bias is a reach predicated on his top 4 poll where he dropped us. Whatever he said on the air or how he said it did not foreshadow that he was going to drop us. I thought he was pretty positive toward us - especially Barkley.
I don't feel like it.Paaaaalease stop! Like I mentioned in the herbie thread some of you are acting like pitters. It opens at the end of the 10 min video so just scroll it back to the beginning!

Penn State does not pass the eye test. Who said that last season?I don't get the constant whining about Herbie. I've listened to the guy a bunch of times doing Penn State games and he's been neutral if not complimentary.
Everybody's out to get us, right?
Penn State does not pass the eye test. Who said that last season?
The team has lots of games left to pass any eye test. Same can be said for almost every team. It learned how to win, last season. Now, it is learning to win when the target is on them.They got rolling at the end of the season, but at times they didn't. That's what we are hanging onto?
I don't think Iowa was as good as everyone thinks. The had a couple big plays on offense to keep them in it, but other than that did crap. When you are able to dominate yardage like that and run the ball but not punch it in, that's what you get. These guys need to pick it up if they want to pass the eye test this year.
Quite frankly, that would have been a legitimate quote on Sat. night. The inability to convert field position into points should concern everyone. The win was exciting and a big relief. It shouldn't camouflage the shortcomings that were quite evident.Penn State does not pass the eye test. Who said that last season?
No question. My comment was regarding Herbie's rather obvious lobbying for tOSU last fall, by denigrating Penn State.Quite frankly, that would have been a legitimate quote on Sat. night. The inability to convert field position into points should concern everyone. The win was exciting and a big relief. It shouldn't camouflage the shortcomings that were quite evident.

Did OU pass the eye test after giving up 41 to
winless Baylor? Must have.

Not so sure about that. For whatever reason Kinnick at night is a nightmare for ranked teams. Just ask Michigan, a team that was loaded with senior talent. There's something about that place that Iowa just plays crazy good at night for big games. I think it show's were better than we think we are being able to come out of there with a win.
Does he want PSU to be undefeated when we roll into their house - yes.Again, Herbie will be effusive in his praise of PSU until we lose. He wants nothing more than an undefeated PSU to roll into the Horseshoe and lose to tOSU. That way he can put tOSU into his top four and say the Buckeyes passed the eye test.
Herbie's master plan is clear.
But OU is 3 after going to the wire w 0-4 Baylor?I wouldn't vote PSU number 4 either after that game.
Does he want PSU to be undefeated when we roll into their house - yes.
Does he want OSU to beat us - yes.
Does he want OSU to be in the top four at season end - yes.
So how is this any different than what we want for Penn State?
Why do people care what this cartoon character says either way, especially so early in the season? Even if he gets a vote in the poll, it's only one. If we win all the games, then no talking head could keep us out. If we lose one or two, then the human factor comes into play, and they may choose someone else. That's just the flaw of the current system. How can people possibly have so much time on their hands to debate this dumb topic?

So you're saying Herby shouldn't have the human frailty that we have? Maybe he should be an automaton.It's different for us because none of us pretends to be objective. Herbie does and he uses his position as a public sports guru to advance an agenda he claims not to have.
Your perspective differs from mine. Nothing he has ever stated, that I have heard, is indefensible. Do you know that 30 of the 61 AP voters have us ranked at 5 or lower? Maybe those 30 also have a bias.Because none of us are national sports broadcasters that should be neutral. Herbie's a broadcaster that wears his bias on his sleeve. I don't think he could make it anymore obvious if he tried.

"His" is not a poll; his is an opinion. He didn't have OSU in his top four either. 30 of the 61 AP voters did not have us in their top four.Because they heard Herbie dropped us in his poll.

Spot on EPC FAN. Let me just add, Herby is nervous because PSU poses a serious threat to OSU, himself, espn, and the college football playoff committee member osu AD Gene Smith. The powers to be are in place to get OSU in the playoffs but PSU stands in their wayPenn State does not pass the eye test. Who said that last season?
