    Harbaugh has always been a mental case, a ticking time bomb at that.

    I have it on good authority from noted experts that the Huskies shouldn't throw unless they have to and that "offensive originality" and throwing downfield has just lead to endless 3-and-outs this season.


    Oh, and the name of the overrated PNW qb you were looking for was Jacob Eason, not Max Browne.
    Abundance.

    He's a good coach, but he's no Urban Meyer and that will haunt him. The Michigan faithful will start to turn on him if he doesn't beat Ohio State in the next year or two.

    Ohio State was the youngest team in football this year. They aren't quite on Alabama's level, but they are close.

    People forgot that Saban won a title because Ohio State was on probation.
    That Ohio state team was not that good. They were their version of the 2000 huskies. Meyer and their fan base acknowledge this regularly.

    They would have played Notre Dame for the title. They were a lot better than Notre Dame.

    ND and Ohio State were undefeated. Bama had already lost to Texas A&Manziel.

    The week before the championship games they were still 2 spots behind a one loss bama team and Georgia who was also ranked ahead of Ohio state was bama'/s opponent that upcoming week. That was the real nc game that year anyways. Urban didn't beat anyone that year.
    Notre dame beat oklahona 10-2 on the road and 12-2 Stanford team and some fringe top 25 teams. Ohio state beat a couple of fringe top 25 teams. It's why they 3 spots lower even as an undefeated tosu.

    I have a hard time believing an undefeated Ohio State wouldn't play for the title. You are right about the rankings, but I also think the fact Ohio State couldn't play in the title game contributed to them getting slighted in the AP poll.

    Ohio State could only be ranked in the AP poll. The AP poll doesn't matter. It's voted by hacks like Wilner. The BCS poll did matter.
