PROBABLY WHEN IT ACTUALLY STARTS I THOUGHT IT HAD ACTUALLY STARTED, MY BAD. GAME TIME, DERWOOD, GOOD TO HAVE YOU HERE. GLAD TO BE HERE. HOPE YOU ENJOY THIS GAME OF AMERICAN FOOTBALL
LSU won the the national championship in 2007 after losing to an unranked Arkansas team in the last game of the regular season. In 2006 UCLA beat USC in the final game of the regular season so I don't see how that applies to your theory. I guess USC stayed in the hunt after losing to Stanford but if they hadn't lost to Oregon that year they would've been the only other 1 loss team besides Ohio State among BCS teams. In 2008 Oregon State finished 18th in the country and had 9 wins. So basically your theory is garbage. I didn't say that USC played for the NC every time they lost to an unranked team, but they stay in the team picture for contenders all the way to the end.
There's pretty much no way Iowa loses the Big Ten now. Even if they lose to Ohio State, they hold the tie-breaker over Penn State. They'd have to lose 2 of their final 4 games. I don't see it
I need to root for MSU tonight, and OSU against Iowa as well. It's the only way PSU can win the Big 10 outright (assuming they win out, which is a lot to ask with games against OSU and MSU still on the schedule)
