Well, all of this is blown out of the water now that OSU - Michigan is cancelled.

Kind of... If the Big 10 changes their 6-game rule, and puts Ohio St in the Championship game, then all is still valid... If they don't and Ohio State is sitting at 5-0 without a conference championship, I think they are out if Fl beats Bama. As long as Bama and Clemson win, it will still be Bama, Clemson, ND, and Ohio St.
Edit: Now that I think about it, wasn't the Big 10's plan for everyone to play on Championship Saturday? I haven't heard anything about it lately, but I heard a few weeks ago that by divisions 1 vs 1 would play for the championship, but 2v2, 3v3, 4v4, etc would also play that same day. Is that still happening?
If that's the case, Ohio State would still have a shot at 6-0 overall and a chance at another half decent win.

My hope is that we blow ND out just to prove to Kelly that it does make a difference of what Clemson QB they play against, and slam the mouth of Book shut!!!

I think we will. Provided we're healthy, I think we win by 3tds

I desperately want tOSU in the playoffs. If they don't put the Buckeyes in, then the stupid Aggys of Texas A$M are in and that would make me really angry. If you don't feel the same, then you've never been around those clowns.
I see Clemson beating Notre Dame and Alabama smoking Florida who is way overrated. It's going to be Clemson, Alabama, Ohio State and Notre Dame.
Aggy has played one decent team all year long and they got a mud hole stomped in them by Alabama.

TU, but I do want ND left out, and a beating from Clemson will close that door, and the mouth of Ian Book!!!

Take a look at OSU's schedule....

...where the only decent team they have played was Indiana and it was not a blowout. The other teams were Nebraska, Penn State, Rutgers and MSU. Ridiculous! FORGET OSU and live with it!

I'm sick and tired of hearing about OSU

They haven't played enough games to qualify plus their schedule is weak. Ridiculous! How can OSU even be considered if they don't play in the Big 10 championship? Frankly, I would rather have Cincinnati in than OSU....
