What does everyone think about the Fiesta Bowl tonight?
I personally think Ohio State is going to be completely overmatched and show why they have no business in a BCS game.
Texas 41
Ohio State 13

I think Ohio State keeps it close for a while, but ultimately falls. Texas 31-24.

I think the Buckeyes win. When there is an overwhelming favorite in games like these look for the underdog.

Great game! I still think it's awesome that Road Warrior Animal's son is Ohio State's best linebacker.
Great game.
What was Ohio State doing with that defense at that point? One missed tackle by the guy playing man defense on a slant should not result in a TD there?

They tried to pressure McCoy on that play when they should have drop back in pass coverage. Great game.

Let me get this straight...
OSU needs to keep Texas out of the endzone. There are less than 30 seconds left. So Captain Sweater Vest calls a defense that includes a grand total of 0 safeties back in coverage? He set up a play where 1 missed tackle would lose him the game...and 1 missed tackle lost him the game. I wish they would stop putting OSU in BCS bowls for a few years...I'd rather watch a different Big 10 team lose.

Wait, you didn't see the other 6 lose this year?;)

You must have missed Penn State getting beat by USC then unless the Rose Bowl is suddenly not a BCS bowl game anymore.

I meant I didn't see all 6...but I guess we can continue arguing over semantics until mocking OSU is no longer fun.

Big 10 is junk.
PS, Texas fans can be quiet now...you should have whipped that team last night.

P.P.S. They still beat the team in the Nat'l Champ Game on a neutral field...
I'm no Texas fan, but they should be there over Oklahoma IMO. I don't see how you can now say that they don't based on the result of basically an exhibition game against a team that Oklahoma hasn't played.

To me that doesn't matter. You wanna prove you belong in the National Title Game? Then show up against Ohio State!
Don't score 3 points in the first half and rely on a final TD drive to beat them and then turn around and tell me you deserve consideration for the BCS Title Game. Doesn't sit well with me.

I agree that last night didn't prove it either...IMO, that was done in the regular season.

I disagee, they should still be upset because they shouldn't have even been in that position to begin with. Plus, Ohio State is better than they're given credit for.
