So who will share the championship with Ohio State in college football?

Blah, blah, blah.
So who will be co-champions with them?
After Bama gets done disemboweling Notre Dame, OSU will be the last undefeated team. However, if OSU had not been penalized by the NCAA, they would have gone to face Notre Dame for the NCG, and probably lost to them.
Fate is a strange cat.

OSU is busted. They can play next year. They already have a weak schedule next year too.

Originally posted by shortcircuitYes, why would the only undefeated team be co-champion? It makes no sense at all.......as soon as Bama gets done with Notre Dame that is.

Really what makes no sense is why the NCAA lets suspended teams play at all, but then, considering all the revenue they would lose it all starts to make sense again.
Screw the NCAA. ðŸ˜

Ohio State doesn't get to be any kind of champion because it broke the rules. That was part of the deal OSU made when it joined the NCAA. It's silly and childish to complain about it now just because OSU wound up having a good season.

Originally posted by no1marauderThe NCAA knew all about the scandal and let them play in the Sugar Bowl anyway and then let them continue with their season the following year. The NCAA is a hypocritical mess.

Originally posted by whodeyI hope the Buckeyes have a tougher schedule next year, I haven't looked. Otherwise they won't be considered for serious bowls being in the conference they're in.

They will almost certainly start the season in the top 5 ratings in the polls.

Geesh.
The Rose Bowl will be an absolute joke this year.

OSU has a solid team. LONG LIVE THE SEEDS!
