2015 Sugar Bowl Less Civilized Thread (Arguments/Shenanigans)

This is more of a general post than a specific game post so I apologize if it should go somewhere else but I'm so sick of hearing from SEC & national people that Ohio State would finish 2nd or 3rd in the SEC. The reason the SEC is the premier conference at the moment isn't b/c they've figured out some secret to play better football than any other conference, it's b/c they have advantages no other conference has. There are more good players in the Southeast than anywhere else. There just are. And they have other advantages like the unique way they are allowed to "discipline" their players. They can over sign. And I think players should be paid above the table so this isn't even necessarily a criticism imo but I'm sure they pay their players under the table more than any other conference. It is what is.

So, yeah, maybe Ohio State wouldn't dominate the SEC like they do the B1G, but they reverse is also true: bring Alabama up to the B1G and tell them to recruit Pennsylvania and Michigan instead of Louisiana and Florida and play by B1G rules and I guarantee you they ain't winning no 3 national titles in 5 years. Hell, we've already seen what happens when Saban has to use Northern players and play by Northern rules: you get a lot of 6 win seasons.

By definition Indiana would have finished second this year, so there is that.

Well, hell then. Might as well just stay at home since you've already crowned your tide as the champions. Thank God the games are played on the field and not based on your keen, expert analysis. Perhaps you might remember the invincible Miami Hurricanes of 2002. All the "experts" like you said The Buckeyes weren't worthy of being on the same field as the vaunted and supreme Hurricanes. We all know how that turned out.

The key to tOSU victory. ..there is none. Ohio state going to come in with trick plays and get blown off the field or come in and play normal football and still get blown off the field. Bama has more talent on the bench not playing than all 22 starters yall got. I wish tOSU well on travel to and from the game. But until you feel that team up with southern players you will just be a regular joe in the big 10. Who yall going to key on? Sims ,Jones , T.Jones , henry, white , howard, cooper, Stewart,penny, fowler, TJ. To many proven stars on the field on O.


How you guys play football down south should stay down there. I'd prefer not to have my after game party at the Blue Oyster Club.
