Yes, I admit that I am a Browns' fan. I also know that the Browns are in a rebuilding mode and thus didn't expect much out of the them this year but as for OSU I had high expectations for them and they laid down a real clunker against Clemson.

Yea. Looks like they were one of the best four last night. Not! The committee got it wrong. Hope they never again send an undeserving non conference champion.

Alabama and Clemson are clearly the top 2
Were tOSU and UW top 4?
Unclear, but I don't think any other team would have had more success

The playoffs should be between conference champions. Win your division and get into a conference championship game. Win that game and then the committee needs to decide if which 4 of the 5 conference champs will be in the playoffs.

But that isn't how it works. Why are you so bitter? Being a conference champion has never been the end all be all part of the equation. Getting the best 4 teams in was the goal. I can see putting PSU in above OSU, but they had 1 more loss so I also understand why they didn't get the nod. It is quite a quandary if you ask me. I personally don't think a conference championship should be as high up as wins/losses. Overall record should be the #1 determining factor, especially if there are good out of conference teams played.

I like the power 5 champions and then 3 others.

Three games settles it all.

I know Ohio State got their brains beat in. However, they have a good team and provided a lot of excitement for their fans during the course of the season. Yes, we are disappointed that they got killed in the playoffs, but I will take the playoffs over flirting w/not winning any games all day, every day.

You saying that they should take the conference champions over and over isn't going to make it true or right. You are just an Ohio State hater who sounds bitter and hateful. And you gloating about Ohio State losing is pretty freaking lame.

I think it will going forward after the out come Saturday night. Ohio was the first team to get into the playoffs that did not win their conference. Hopefully the last. The only reason they got in was for TV ratings. They had a great resume and used that resume as an excuse to get a team into the playoffs that will drive up TV ratings. It did work. Ratings were up this year from last. Still soes not make it right.

Crying ain't going to change anything.

And I agree but that doesn't mean I can't be embarrassed with how OSU played against Clemson.

So penn state is getting killed.

Guess the big ten was fools gold? Only top team that won was Wisconsin

And they played a mid major.

We'll finally get to the real college football game of the season tonight. The Sugar Bowl!

It looks like Humpy Valley is coming back.

Wow


So that means every B1G team scores in their bowl game.

Except us.

PSU just scored to tie the game, and the extra point is coming.

LOL............You act like Ohio State and the Big 10 took your lunch money.

Tell us who your team is. I bet it explains a lot.

I love Barkley, but give teams a year of footage on Mcsorley. I see similarities between him and JT. The good and bad.

What a defensive battle we have in the Rose Bowl this year.

Lol. Penn St. scored a touchdown on 4 consecutive offensive plays.

They've already set a record for points in a Rose Bowl and the 4th quarter is just starting.

Can we draft Darnold this year and let him play out his eligibility at USC?

That was an incredible throw.

Penn State is playing like a Brown.

Thank God.

Now we don't have to listen to Penn State fans bitch about missing the playoffs.

Maybe we can trade them Kessler for Darnold?

Sam Darnald or Josh Rosen will be the #1 pick next year.

Too bad Darnold is a freshman.

Redshirt freshmen.

He'd be eligible next year.

"The Granddaddy of Them All"

How long was that game? The Sugar Bowl was supposed to start after the Rose at 7:30 central, but now it's 8:30. So was that a 4-hour game?

Also, that was a great game. I know I would have attacker that #1 CB with him falling down every other play but man, the safety damn near picked off the previous pass. USC knew they were going back to him again. Probably a mistake on their part.

Even better.

Offensive shootouts take longer because of TV timeouts and timeouts after possession exchange. Stations also know fans will watch those games more.

I watched Rosen quite a few times this season before his injury...something seems to be missing. Maybe he'll show better next year. As of now I'd take Darnold over him in a heartbeat.

Josh Rosen is a super douche.

Kessler started over Darnold last year.

WOW.

Alabama will be young and talented next year, but damn they will be young. Robinson, Humphrey, and Hand are expected to leave after this year too.

If Rashaan Evans leaves that is their entire front 7 leaving. They will be elite offensively next year.
