It boggles the mind how uniformed college football fans are about how the BCS works. Ohio State has never had anything handed to them. They lost a conference game in week 11 to a team that finished #18 in the final polls who played in the Rose Bowl. Then over the final three weeks of the season, EVERY OTHER TEAM IN FRONT OF THEM LOST. When it was time to pick the bowls, they had the best record in the nation besides Hawaii. Do you really think they didn't deserve to play in the title game?
Who should have made the title game last year instead of Ohio State? USC couldn't beat Stanford at home. Georgia lost to a 6-6 South Carolina team at home. Missouri didn't even win their conference. West Virginia lost at home to a 5-7 Pittsburgh team. Kansas didn't even play in their conference championship game. Oklahoma lost to a 6-7 Colorado team. Texas lost to 7 win Texas A&M and 5 win Kansas State.
The only legitimate case is maybe for Virginia Tech but even then they played in the weak ACC.
But yeah, it's not Ohio State or the BCS' fault that everybody else fucked up.
