What is your bigger gripe with this year's BCS matchups?

Wrong teams in the championship~30%
Ohio State picked as at-large~50%
I have no gripes~18%

The country has spoken...:cool:

Add another vote against Douchebag State as an at-large.
Notice the entire country except Texas and the state of Douchebag voted against Douchebag State as an at-large. Texas rightly voted for wrong teams in MNC and the state of Douchebag had no gripes. They will after Texas pounds sand up their team's a$$.

Haha, if you scroll over the different states, the whole western side of the country is like 65% or higher that their biggest gripe is OSU as an at-large BCS bid! Even internationally it's still 50%

I noticed that, too. I also noticed that every state outside of the B10 was over 50% for the uos at-large. I think 3 B10 states were under 50%. Even Michigan was only high 40's.
But hey, it's just because everyone else is jealous.

who cares , i dont but i look forword to the next woodshed job on ohio state , im happy the bcs put osu in one of those games, this whole city of c/bus is worried , i hope this doesnt happen ,but if all the other big10 teams get beat, think about the added pressure for the buckeyes in that bowl game, the entire football nation thinks they are a joke, ohio states national image will sink as deep as the titanic when they get beat, texas 41 ohio state 20 and thats with osu getting a last min. touchdown to make it appear close. i can hear the chant now , OVERRATED OVERRATED,

The BCS was set up to do 1 thing, to try to make sure, as close as is possible, that #1 plays #2 in the NC. That's it.

Ohio State is ranked in the top 10 teams in the nation. When it comes down to at-large teams the bowl committees have the right to choose who will play in their bowl. Obviously most states had a team of their own that they wanted to be the at-large team in the BCS bowls, hence the 50% vote.
Ohio State has as much right to be in the BCS Fiesta Bowl as Oklahoma {whom Texas clobbered BTW} has to be in the BCS NC bowl!!!

If the rest of the country wants to cry about someting they should be crying about Texas getting the shaft after beating Oklahoma where it counts MOST, "on the field"!!!:eek:

Maybe they should start picking on Oklahoma too. Oklahoma lays bigger duds than the bucks. I'm a Michigan fan and I get tired of the whinning about Ohio State.
