MLD Woody Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 But not really. 11-1 with a better resume versus 11-2 with a conference championship is a good debate. Throwing a 10-2 team into the mix is not. 10-2 with a better resume and a head to head win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gipper Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 Well, here is another thing that Ohio Stat and Michigan may have over Penn State: While Penn State won the Big Ten East.....they did it playing an easier overall conference schedule. By this I mean that OSU and MU played the tougher BTWest schools: Penn State's Big Ten West opponents were: Minnesota, Iowa, Purdue Ohio State Big Ten West opponents were: Wisconsin, Nebraska, Northwestern Michigan's Big Ten West opponents were: Wisconsin, Iowa, Illinois. The Big Ten West final standings were: Wisconsin 7-2 Nebraska 6-3 Iowa 6-3 Minnesota 5-4 Northwestern 5-4 Illinois 2-7 Purdue 1-8 So, not only did OSU have the strongest SOS with their non-conf. opponents, they also had the strongest SOS in conference, followed by Michigan...then Penn State lagging behind in SOS.

mjp28 Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 About these B1G awards.... Yes they really show one thing OHIO STATE went 11-1 with a really smaller but faster young developing team. I didn't see the last two years lists but I'd bet they had way more Buckeyes many now in the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wargograw Posted December 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 They didn't just beat usc. That was a while ago. Like Michigan and Penn state the outcome may not be the same if they played again You're right. Would probably only beat them by 4 TDs this time.

wargograw Posted December 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 10-2 with a better resume and a head to head win It's not a better resume when the loss is factored in. And how is it better than Ohio State's anyway? OU/Colorado-wash. Wisconsin-wash. Nebraska-? I guess you're saying beating Penn State is a better accomplishment than beating Michigan?

Wisconsin-wash. Nebraska-? I guess you're saying beating Penn State is a better accomplishment than beating Michigan? Look at post #30 of this thread where I evaluate each of the teams resumes. I don't see Clemson losing to Va. Tech. That puts them in. That makes 3 slots taken. If Washington wins tonight, I can't see the committee dropping a one loss team who just beat another Top Ten team. Of course, the excitement comes in if Colorado wins. Then the dogfight is on: Michgan (at 5 it would seem that they stand to move up a slot). PSU/Wisc. winner? Colorado? Oklahoma/OK St. winner? Tonight's game is big. If Wash. wins...and especially if they win big, they slam dunk get in. Then everyone else has to put their hopes on a major upset of Va. Tech over Clemson.
