Just because REDEYE argued that Oregon should be ranked ahead of OSU when both had one loss, does not mean that his argument was wrong now that they have 2 losses. The variables are different now than they were when he made the original argument.
Oregon 100% should have been ranked ahead of OSU when they both had 1 loss. As long as Oregon's 1 loss was not to a 3rd team who OSU beat. And that was not the case.
Also said things like Oregon was currently better than OSU and would take them head to head
Also suggested that Oregon had the edge at QB , despite OSU having the Heisman front runner
It’s fine to think they should’ve been a spot ahead, but to suggest that Oregon was better than Ohio State heading into this past weekend was pretty laughable. Oregon was teetering and Ohio State was surging. We ALL knew this
Ohio State would’ve smacked Utah
We all know if they played again Ohio State would smack Oregon.
teams have swings during the season.. I thought we could get it together before season ended. But way to many injuries.. As far as the matchup with Ohio St is concerned, had to go with what I saw on your field.. We were better..The fact that you've beaten up on average to below average teams , didn't help with my analysis. Stroud is asked to do more with his arm , of course his stats will be better. Heisman's are busts 50% of the time, so that means nothing to me. Too bad 3 WR'S were out for Brown , or we might have had a different result and Brown himself would have raised his stock more to some.
As far as matching up for Utah , Utes were a tougher matchup.. Stroud was throwing into our healthy secondary.. Big mistake as you probably noticed. He sure wasn't getting Heisman consideration that day.
Utah, to their credit didn't go after our corners. Better game plan from their coaches..
Yeah Stroud really sucked against Oregon ….only threw for 484 yards and 3 TD’s…
Buckeyes were the better team heading into this past weekend despite the h2h. You can say Ohio State was beating up on crappy teams, but that’s still much more indicative of success than Oregon losing to Stanford and barely getting by crappy PAC 12 teams like UCLA and Washington
The fact that Oregon entered that Utah game as an underdog says it All. OSU would’ve been laying double digits
Keep in mind that entering the weekend Ohio State was hovering around +400 to win it all. Oregon was at like +1800. And that’s with Ohio State still having to play both Michigan schools and a championship game in a much tougher conference
Point being we all knew Ohio State was better than Oregon before the Utah debacle. This past weekend just finally exposed It

How many pics did Stroud throw ? You kinda made my argument for me with Stroud stats.
Utah would've been the second best team you played all year behind Oregon..
Big Ten is way overrated.. The only reason some of those teams were ranked to begin with is because they hadn't played anyone , especially outside the conference.
484 TD’s, 3 td’s, 1 int. Yeah he really struggled against that daunting Oregon secondary
I’d argue Michigan state is better than Utah. Michigan is as well. Utah is a good team, but Ohio State would probably handle them pretty well. They certainly wouldn’t get rolled like Oregon just did
I agree the Big Ten is overrated, but it still makes the PAC 12 look like a high school conference
That's just your opinion.. Mich St is an average team at best.. Win total for the year was 5.. lol they over achieved with help from a soft schedule.
same with Michigan.. win total was 7 1/2... P St was 9 which i went under on
Stoud had to throw alot.. playing catchup all game will inflate stats.
we'll never know what woulda shoulda or coulda happened with a rematch.. I would just concentrate on next couple of games and getting in if I was you.. Our debating this pretty much means nothing at this point.
