Go Buckeyes!

You can make a case for TCU or Baylor, but the lack of a championship game in the Big 12 hurt their chances. The dismantling of Wisconsin last night by OSU with their third-string QB was impressive.

Why do you need a championship game when they already played each other?

Also proved that Big 10 was a really weak conference.

59-0 against a 10-2 team in the conference championship.

The Buckeyes deserved it by far. Neither Baylor or TCU had any victory all season that came close to the Wisconsin game, and both of them gave up 58 and 61 points respectively in their game against each other.

I think OSU's early season loss to a team that is still bowl eligible (although mediocre) is a lesser knock against their record.

TCU gave up 61 points in a defeat. They had no business in the playoff. Baylor was close, but they gave up 58 points at home.

End of story.
