congrats on winning the B1G Buckeyes.

Unfortunately I think you guys just sealed the deal on Alabama getting into the playoff. Bastages.

QB whisperer Paul Chryst with a performance out of his QB that had shades of Wilton Speight or John O'Korn.

Starting to think running that kind of pro style offense in college is a major disadvantage. They only work at a high level if you have high level pro style QB's. Those are basically impossible to find. The high school QB's aren't playing in pro style offenses, they are playing in spreads and air raid.

I realize in game circumstances cause plans to go out the window, but I just can't believe Wisconsin had to throw the ball 40 times.

I hope not. However, I really don't want to see Ohio State in the playoffs either. I'm happy with a conf championship. If Alabama makes the playoffs, it will just demonstrate that the committee is bogus as Alabama lost to the only decent team they played this year. Unfortunately, I think it does come down to Bama and  tOSU.

throwing the ball 40 times a game is fine if you have a really good QB.
When you have Alex Hornibrook at QB? That's not a recipe for success.

That's my point.   I'll admit I missed most of the 1st quarter, so I don't know how the rhythm of the offense looked early, but that looked like a different approach tonight by Wisconsin.   No doubt, credit to the pressure OSU was able to provide.

1st off: Congrats to Wisconsin. Man I like that team, Fumagalli is the real deal. I like the coach, real classy in the post game interview. I think they are really good, just came up a couple plays short tonight. Wisconsin seems to be a quality program doing it the right way.

Not to get too OSU centric; but it looked like OSU had 3 big plays to get points, and had 3 horrible turnovers leading to 3 Badger scores. I don't think that's a recipe for continued success whoever they play in the bowl/playoff.

OSU is a very inconsistent Jeykl-Hyde team. Pretty damn wild actually.

Surprising how far a team can go with a middling QB.
