Ohio State Seniors... No team can match this.. NOT USC NOT Florida from CFN
Over the last four years, Ohio State has gone 43-8 with four straight trips to the BCS. Two of the losses were in national championships (which is far more forgivable than this group ever got credit for), one was to a Texas team that probably belonged in the national championship, one was to a USC team that would probably win the national championship if there was some sort of a playoff, one was to a Penn State team that won the Big Ten title and played in the Rose Bowl, one was to an Illinois team that played in the 2008 Rose Bowl, one was to a 2005 Penn State team that went 11-1, won the Big Ten title, and won the Orange Bowl, and the other was to the Vince Young-led 2005 national champion Texas team. The eight losses came to teams teams that went a combined 93-12 (that's an 89% winning percentage) and finished their seasons in the BCS. Let that sink in for a moment. In the end, this year's Ohio State senior class didn't lose to a dud team, had big wins over Notre Dame in the 2006 Fiesta Bowl, at Texas in 2006, and beat Michigan four straight times (five straight if you count a redshirt year of 2004) including the 2006 powerhouse. This will be remembered as an extremely great group." - Fiutak

Tis better to lose THE BIG ONE... than to win or lose the small one. USC can't win the small one. Think about that.

Just thought about something. Mach, that picture is in no way, shape or form an insult towards you and your diet. I'm an a-hole, but I'm not THAT much of an a-hole.

If I read those numbers right, they were 0-4 in BCS games? I don't care how good their regular season numbers were. The bottom line like Reb said, is that they've only proven they can't win the big one.

We're talking about the seniors, not the 2002 NC team. Which I was already informed were actually 1-3.
