Dude. Title game. Join us for the liveblog over at the Sporting Blog, featuring quarter by quarter updates from bars full of Ohio State and LSU fans. We're doing the watching in that order precisely to avoid getting killed as a Florida fan and to avoid pepper spray. That shit feels like you inhaled a bushel of tacks when it hits.

I’ve watched 30 seconds of the pregame show and I’m read to vomit – not from drinking.
When’s kickoff?

I’m drinking red wine already..that bodes well for a 4th quarter pass out…
I wonder if they are selling beer at the game?
Whoever starts the SEC ‘speed’ crap (either for the SEC or when a Big 10 player runs someone down from behind), will be subjected to a night of the Ralphie Treatment from Pam Ward.

I’m an SEC guy- make no mistake about it…but the dotting of the eye has the hair on my head stand up.
How much extra booty do you get for being the ‘dotter’?
I would guess- a lot.

Glen Dorsey as Forrest Gump?
So he agreed to being portrayed as semi-retarded and doomed to knock up a bipolar white girl who’d later get (well implied that she got) AIDS?

I thought both schools got the same number of tickets and there would be no advantage to either school.
Wrong.
LSU is loud. Real Loud.
However- I’ve seen their fans loud early and passed out in the stands later when they get behind.

And OU fans would go to see tOSU.
And considering how weak their schedules are and how much they have returning, both will likely be ranked #1 and #2 and run the table.
I tell you, the main reason there isn’t a playoff is because an SEC team would win about 40% of the championships. That is why the Big 10 and Pac 10 refuse to participate in one. They know what a playoff looks like – it looks like LSU/UF/AU/Bama/UT/UGA hoisting trophies year in and year out.

Any speed difference is on the defensive line, not at the skill positions. The d-linemen in the SEC are strong and fast. It’s hard to prepare for that unless you see it regularly. The lack of that speed was what undid UF this year.

OSU looks befuddled.
Given Georgia’s two losses and lack of division title and USC’s loss to Stanford (not to mention a schedule that while very good on paper at the beginning of the season, ended up being weak), I’m not sure they “deserved” to be in the title game. But, I would have loved to see Georgia or a healthy USC match up with LSU.
Most anti-climactic end of season ever.
Someone asked whether an undefeated OSU would even be invited to the NC game again.

Oh, Les Miles, if Michigan is watching, beat the shit out of tOSU….may wanna take notes and see if ya can steal any of his recruits…does tOSU have a def line since Laurenatis is makin all the tackles? Damn does the Big 10 just not cover the tight end? Wanna beat tOSU, get a big white tight end that can catch….must not have those up there???

The era of Big 10 teams getting the benefit of the doubt is over (for now).
I think this is why Pete Carroll always scedules tough out of conference games (at least on paper) and is so willing to travel. As obsessed as the media can get over USC, I think he knows that there is a bias, at this point justifiable, in favor of the east/south and against the West. He knows he needs a signature out of conference win. The Big 10 should take note – and, actually OSU and USC play each other for the next two years.

Sadly the bowl game is the only time we get to check it out because Florida, Auburn, Georgia are never willing to travel out of the south for an out of conference schedule, so they end up playing a bunch of patsys.

You had an ugly 2 loss SEC team – LSU – who by far was the ugliest SEC Champion in the last 6 years – beat the snot out of tOSU.
And as long as the Big 10 keeps a commish that fights this system, they will be a substandard conference. Winners want to play against the best. Without a playoff, the only time the Big 10 gets to play against the best is when they get Waxed in the BCS MNC game.

AU has played USC, is playing Home and Home with WVU for the next 2 years and then playing home and home with Clemson.
Do you not think that UGA could’ve beaten tOSU tonight? I do.
The point is that the SEC’s IN CONFERENCE SCHEDULE is better than any one else’s whole schedule, OOC included. The OOC scheduling is a red fucking herring when you’re playing in the SEC week in and week out.
AU played LSU, Florida, Arkansas, Mississippi State, Georgia, and Alabama in conference – 6 bowl teams – and USF out of conference – a 7th bowl team. We also played KSU – another BCS team. How many bowl teams did tOSU play in the regular season?

360, as well they should.
The Big 10’s three bowl victories this season:
Purdue needed a last second field goal to beat Central Michigan, and got it thanks to the Chippewa’s kicker inexplicably kicking a soft pop fly on the last kickoff, practically starting the Boilermakers in fg range.
Penn State beat a lame duck Texas A&M squad, but to be fair, it’s certainly not JoePa’s fault that Excelsior! ran the Aggies into the ground.
Michigan, playing with the heart and intensity that they had lacked the entire regular season, circled the wagons and won one for the gipper.
So to summarize the Big 10 bowl season, you’ve got one legitimate victory by a team that talent-wise should have been playing in a much better bowl, one win over a lame duck, one last second victory over a MAC team, and five losses. But yeah, the Big 10 can play with the big boys. Whatever.

I agree 374, but your argument really works this year in particular when the SEC was so strong.
The SEC isn’t the type of conference that will get “down” like the rest when it has an off year (meaning its off years will be better than other conferences off years), but it will have weaker years, and that’s when hiding behind ’strenght of conference scedule" is somewhat annoying if SEC teams are not playing quality out of conference games.

I don’t get the USC hate? They can’t help what conference they’re in, so they go out of their way to schedule very strong out of conference games (VT, Auburn, Arkansas, Nebraska, Notre Dame all in the past 6 years, ND every year). Usually it works, but years like this when Nebraska and ND suck, it doesn’t.

d-nice, you are falling into bnb’s trap. You need to distinguish between out of conference and out of region.

Unlike OSU, we don’t have to drive very far to find tough competition.
So, don’t say out of conference when you mean out of region, because plenty of SEC teams annually play tough out of conference teams.

396, I actually think USCw, even if they beat OSU, is a year away. They have a ton of talent, but have to break in a new quarterback, and they lost a lot of experience on defense, and the defense is what saved their season from being even worse (by their standards).
But, their skill position players really started to come around.
I can see them making a NC run or going 9-3 with a couple too-close-for-comfort wins within those 9, depending on who steps up and how fast they gel.
I’m expecting a very good season, but probably not an NC appearance, but who knows after this season.

I think a team with tOSU’s talent and coaching could compete in the SEC.
The point I believe most of the SEC posters are trying to make is that the tests that a team like LSU (or UF last season) faces week in and week out in the SEC better prepares them for a big game than the weaker schedule a team like OSU plays.
Other than the loss to Illinois, only one team came within 10 points of tOSU this season. When you aren’t tested, you won’t get better. It’s not that tOSU isn’t a great team, they just weren’t as prepared to play a full game as LSU was.

And Pac-10 football has held it’s own in head to head match-ups with the SEC, and owns a winning record with that league since 2000. The SEC might be a tougher league top to bottom, but the Pac-10 is a very good conference

Ohio State was better than 11 SEC teams, including Florida this year.
Ohio State was better than 11 SEC teams, including LSU last year.
Ohio State was better than all 12 SEC teams in 2002.
Any who gets all excited about conference pride is a douchebag.

Jarvis Moss, postgame 2007: “Honestly, we’ve played a lot better teams than them,” Florida defensive end Jarvis Moss said. “I could name four or five teams in the SEC that could probably compete with them and play the same type of game we did against them.”

If I were a tOSU fan, I would be MORE mad at the Buckeyes, including Cheaty McSweatervest, than at the gloating fans of the team that beat the snot out of theOSU, or the nuetral ones that call a spade a spade and state that the OSU should not have been in that game in the first place like Hawaii in the other BCS game.
tOSU reminds me of the Buffalo Bills. They somehow got to the big game four times, I think, but everyone remembers them as losers, instead of the second best team in the NFL for those years.

To say OSU was better than the other 11 SEC teams, none of which OSU played, because OSU may be ranked higher at the end of the year (news for you UGA will be over OSU) and/or because OSU had a better overall record playing in a lesser conference, makes you a blind douchebag. You can’t see what’s right in front of your face.
PW has it right. OSU was not tested much this year before last night. If OSU had played consistently better opponents all year they would have known how to take a punch in the face a la LSU this year being down 10-0 or UF last year spotting OSU 7 on the opening kick-off.

Tressell is Big 10 for Stoops. I really didn’t think OSU would show up with their dick in their hand this year, but that’s exactly what happened.
- on OSU’s O-line was on skates. Boeckmann was Bambi in the headlights. OSU’s defense marginal at best and confused when it counted.
Anyone comparing the Big Ten favorably to the SEC is just high.

I love all of the over analyzing…it was pretty simple from where I watched the game last night that it basically boiled down to what all big time games boil down to…who tackles the best, plays penalty/mistake free, and who doesn’t turn the ball over.
Of course 1 team being better than the other team can directly affect turnovers, tackling, and penalties, but let’s all be honest here, LSU had 1 penalty in the 4th quarter, and 1 turnover late in the game when it wasn’t really close.
There were plays to be made against LSU. Ohio State held them to a season low offensive yardage and out gained them.
5 personal foul penalties, a dropped touchdown pass that turned into a blocked field goal, and the missed blocked punt all killed any kind of momentum.
All in all, it sucks to lose to an SEC team because of the obnoxious fan base and really that is the only reason I hate it. I have no problem giving LSU and Florida credit, but it’s listening to random Alabama talk shit that drives me nuts.
If winning a National Championship every year was really easy, there would be a program out there doing it every year like Nebraska in the 90’s. It takes a special group of individuals to makeup the right team chemistry and talent to pull it off….especially given our system.
A senior laden team doesn’t hurt things either.

0-9. Yeah that loss in 1936 is really relevant.
Dear NewAZTiger,
We appreciate your interest in SEC football. Instead of just saying how much you like the SEC, please show it by asking your coaches not to teach the Auburn players how to cheapshot chop block people like Glenn Dorsey. Thanks,
The Rest of the SEC

I guess this is what happens when Ted Ginn doesn’t get hurt.
You still lose. Take that arguement and flush it down the toilet tOSU fans. Face the Nation. The Big Ten is overrated as hell and the population shift in this country has effected college football.
Maybe one day they will all come back to Ohio.

Congrats to LSU on their Victory. But into perspective that they played a team that was preseason ranked 11th in country and only slipped to the top due to other teams injuries.
This victory will be marred by the fact it was gift from other teams.
So Merry "F"ing Christmas!

Unless you start the season #1 or #2 and stay there all season, someone needs to lose for you to move up to #1 or #2. So in a way, unless you are #1 or #2 pre-season to the end of the season, every team backs into the title game.
LSU deserves their victory. It wasn’t a gift any more so than any other mnc.

I don’t really go for conference pride. I just want most SEC teams to win in order to create the perception that the league is strong top to bottom, particularly with Georgia set to make a NC run next year. I still couldn’t pull for Florida or Tennessee.
The Big 10 was amazingly average this year, and Ohio State was predictably unprepared to face a truly good team because of it. Aside from the defensive line I really didn’t see much of a talent gap. The problem was that Ohio State melted under the pressure. Possibly, that’s due to youth, or it may be due to having no experience against equal or better opponents.
Oh, and does Delany want to take back that letter about the stupidity of SEC players? I saw one team continually making stupid mistakes last night, and it wasn’t the southern one.

I honestly could see only a couple teams from around the country being able to compete in the SEC. USC and West Virginia are the only two teams that I have watched all year that had the speed and consistent playmaking ability to survive in that conference. Before Dixon went down, I would have added Oregon to that group. Before Cal quit in mid October, I would have added them to that mix as well.

PW summed it up the best, as did Biggus……its true the SEC is a tougher conference, which when the SEC champ is crowned, they earned it….by a trial by fire, which means learning as a team to come from behind in close games in toughest enviroments…and overcoming injuries and adversity…I dont think tOSU had the schedule to prep them….and you dont earn your stripes by playing one tough opponent in a injured Michigan team….hell LSU won its conf champ. with their back up QB, and depth is another thing, LSU was just deeper in personnel…..tOSU just wasnt battle tested enough, kinda like the French in Vietnam….
LSU gets punched in the mouth, tells tOSU after they go up 10-0….“Hey, thats a pretty good right hook ya got there” as they pick themselves up off the mat, then proceed to punch tOSU in the mouth, the gut, kick em in the groin, stomp on their toes, gouge their eyes out then headbutt them, then place them in the Fiquere 4 til they tap out…….then carry them to the turnbuckle and throw them out of the ring and thru the announcers table……for the second year in a row…..
