Well, I hate to break the bad news but Ohio State does play USC in 2008. If they win that game and run the table it would be difficult to keep them out, regardless of the last two BCS title game results (unless maybe there are 3 unbeaten major conf. teams).

I know OSU's OOC schedule sucked this year, but all I've heard out of some media honks lately is how they NEVER play anyone outside the Big 10. They nearly beat Texas in 2005 and did beat them on the road last year.

I'm by no means an Ohio State fan. In fact, Monday was the first time I had watched them for more than a few minutes. But the selective memory of the media is just comical sometimes.

USC will end their chances early next year

**hoard** · January 9th, 2008, 02:20 PM

I think USC will beat them too. I'm just saying --IF-- OSU does go undefeated in 2008 it'll be hard to argue against them.

I wonder if Forde even knows they play each other next year.

Playing one strong team OOC every ten years in pretty much NEVER playing anyone. And fwiw the little 11 isn't really packed with teams worth mentioning.

you cant blame tosu because their conference blows, but it isnt like they never play anyone, the big ten didnt use to be this bad, and he pointed out that ut/tosu game that if troy smith stays in, you never see VY in the rose bowl.

OSU usually plays EXACTLY 2 really tough games per year...Michigan (tough cuz it's a rivalry) and whoever whips them in their bowl game...and they still usually get upset at least once.
