Update-

SOS 117 out of 120 D1 programs...

15 Ohio State A = 85.08 6 0 63.45( 117)

It's hard to believe a team that doesn't play anyone for six games loses to an average team.

watching them play today made my day :)

In all seriousness, it is the reason why the computer rankings are more important than the human rankings. Most humans don't get to watch every team play or the people voting can't tell the difference between good teams and players. tOSU was never the #1 team because they simply don't have the physical ability. They got physically smashed last night. Nobody notices that when they are playing MAC schools, but it comes out when they play a decent team. They probably aren't a Top 15 team (closer to between 15 and 25) and will lose at least one more thins regular season. They are still in first place in the MAC though.

What I am shocked about over the past two days is how quickly and completely EVERYONE has jumped off the OSU bandwagon. I'm well aware of the tendencies of NE Ohio fans, but did I ever underestimate the reaction from the Wisconsin loss. All week, and especially on Saturday, there were OSU fans EVERYWHERE! Wearing their OSU gear and shouting OH--IO out in random places whenever they crossed paths. Sunday I go out and.....NOTHING and I mean NOTHING! Not a single person wearing OSU gear ANYWHERE and believe me, I was looking for them! The only person I saw yesterday wearing OSU stuff was my buddy, an OSU alum who came over to my house and knew I would give him even MORE crap if he DIDN'T wear OSU stuff! In the past TWO days, I have only seen 2 articles of OSU gear including my buddy! The media is even jumping off the bandwagon. The papers have 1/5 the typical OSU coverage and most of this is from the AP! The Cleveland Plain Dealer has almost as many articles on the MAC schools on their college page as they do OSU articles. Normally you have to go 2,3,4 pages in to find a single MAC article. Hell, there is even one to make the OSU fans feel good their school doesn't suck as bad as Akron. Amazing, simply amazing!

Please, enough with comments like these. You are hurting Buckzips feelings...GP1 was right, the Vest should have scheduled Urbana instead of Wisconsin and he would be sitting atop the polls at 7-0.

We've tried to tell him a long time ago, die hard Zips fans do not like the Buckeyes.

My feelings aren't hurt. I happen to agree with certain points. If you weren't suffering from small penis syndrome like Bobby and GPI, you would have seen that in a previous thread I predicted OSU would lose to WIsci and Iowa. I predicted losing to Miami too. Of course Miami ended up looking like they weren't as good as many thought they were.

You see, being an Alum and fan doesn't always make one a homer. If anyone here can show me a post where I ever stated OSU wa the best team or would go undefeated, I would like to see it.

I still just find it amazing how infatuated you guys are with OSU. It is seriously fun to read how butthurt some of you guys are.

I think you would rather have OSU lose than have Akron win.

As for the people off the bandwagon, you guys are really clueless if you believe that not wearing your gear on Sunday means anything. I always wear my football gear on Saturday. That is when the games are played. I don't wear it on Sunday either.

Win or lose. I guarandamntee you that the shoe will still be at capacity this week. Will the Info? I doubt it. Akron will need to win for the bandwagon to start to fill the Info. I need to start checking the names over here and comparing with the names on other threads that are saying they won't waste any more money going to Zip games. THOSE PEOPLE ARE THE BANDWAGON fans. But some of you are too ignorant to see that.

Bandwagon fans. ROFLMAO. You mean like how UA got fans at games a few years back when they were winning and now nobody shows up? Or do you mean how now all of a sudden the last 2 years a lot of people started attending UA soccer games? Those are bandwagon fans. But you don't see that.

Carry on with your small penis syndrome now. I like reading this stuff. With every post you guys show what pathetic little lives you live. I feel sorry for some of you. I really do. Some of you really make Akron fans look bad. Obviously you don't see that either.

Another way to look at it is bandwagon fans are smart fans who won't waste their money on a bad product. I don't blame people one bit for not going to watch the Zips play.

Fans of tOSU are wasting their money on an illusion as they are too stupid to realize they are being duped. 100,000 idiots will be showing up Saturday.

Wa, wa, wa, wa, wa, my penis is smaller than everyone at OSU. I will badmouth all of them to make myself feel bigger..

wa, wa,wa,wa,wa,wa

I wasn't good enough to play at OSU so I have to attack them all the time. wa, wa, wa,wa,wa,wa

wa, wa, wa,I am so damn jealous of the program that is 5-3 in BCS games and finishes in the top 10 nearly every year, so that when they do lose I have to say the team that beat them was average, when they win a BCS bowl game I have to say they beat an over rated team. Wa, wa, wa, wa, wa, wa, wa, wa, wa, wa, wa,

ROFLMAO---First off they wouldn't care what my name is. There are multiple posters that have names like mine. Believe it or not some are ND and OSU fans. There are multiple names that have Buck second. Their is a poster named Zipbuck. I have never seen him attacked. Of course I don't follow him around either.

Secondly, the big part that you miss every time, If I started non stop threads about Akron, you are probably right some would get on me. . However, I have never, ever....I repeat ever started an OSU thread here.

Third..I have started a few Akron threads over there. I have started threads about UA soccer and when UA was in their bowl game a few years back I started a thread. Guess what? Nobody, I repeat, nobody said a bad word about Akron. There was actually a game thread during the Akron/Memphis game. Every single poster that responded was rooting for Akron.

When OSU and Akron played in football nobody said a bad word about Akron. A few asked me who I was rooting for or my thoughts, but that's it. Not 1 bad word. And there are thousands of posters on those boards. I remember a couple posters mentioning how UA is a sleeping giant with their location, facilities and new stadium.

You guys continue to want to blast OSU, but you have no real reason to do it.

You may have had a bad experience or whatever. When you have a huge fanbase their are a some bad apples. Look at this place. We have a small fanbase and a few bad apples.

Carry on with the hate though.

By the way. I never visit Bucknuts. That site blows.

I forgot to update.

The schedule is indeed geting harder. Up to 81. Not bad for the vest...

13. Ohio State A = 85.85 6 1 66.42( 81)

Obsession is a bad thing. But if it makes you feel better about yourself, so be it.

Maybe you should check SOS at the end of the year. I doubt you will post it then.

Do you think they will rise into the top 70?

For the umpteenth time, they are a competitor of the Zips. :rolleyes:

Oh yeah, I forgot. LOL

Per Jeff Sagarin....not Zips Win!

Update: 75% of the season complete and the SOS is 87 out of 120.

13 Ohio State A = 86.27 8 1 65.41( 87)

Good to see you are so obsessed with them and following them so much. I am surprised you aren't bashed relentlessly for it. You must not be a true Zip fan.

BTW, Obsession isn't a good thing. You may want to seek professional help. Just saying.......

Exactly how am I obsessed with THEM?

On a weekly basis I take one minute and check out Sagarin's ratings to see how his computer formula ranks all the college football teams.

I then post for you the tosu sos. Hardly an obsession...

As for the Zips, I've never gone to a game!!!!

I guess if you were posting every teams SOS you would have a point. But seeing that you only pick OSU and you pick the one SOS rating service that shows the lowest, it's obvious you are trolling.

It doesn't bother me though. I just laugh about it. It's obvious you have SPS and this is your way of dealing with it.

More power to you.

I've never really cared about Ohio State one way or or the other but the statement from their president Ohio St. prez disregards TCU, Boise St really ticks me off. Direct quote - "Well, I don't know enough about the Xs and Os of college football," said Gee, formerly the president at West Virginia, Colorado, Brown and Vanderbilt universities. "I do know, having been both a Southeastern Conference president and a Big Ten president, that it's like murderer's row every week for these schools. We do not play the Little Sisters of the Poor. We play very fine schools on any given day." God, what an elitist a-hole. If you're not one of the BCS Universities, apparently you will never be worthy. Ask him about the long and glorious history of USF. No one doubts those schools play somewhat tough schedules, but the opportunity isn't there for schools in others leagues. Well, I guess they could schedule Oklahoma, USC, Ohio State and Florida and hope they are all good that year and beat all of them. Morons like him are whyI want to see the death of the BCS. Then prove it on the field, Gee-normous ego, with a playoff. Please Boise State, make the BCS championship and beat the crap out of whatever wonderful school they put you up against.

In MAC news, NIU is now #26 in the AP poll. Nice to see someone from the MAC getting some recognition.

Geez, Gordon, maybe you should look at your own schedule before you rip on someone else's.

It took 11 games into a 12 game season to crack the top 60. Nice job.. I don't know how Tress sleeps at night with such a daunting schedule.

For BZ:

Ohio St. president: Football not my arena

Ohio State president E. Gordon Gee says in the future, he will stick to running the university and leave comments about college football to the experts.

"What do I know about college football? I look like Orville Redenbacher. I have no business talking about college football," he said Wednesday, according to The Columbus Dispatch.

More than a week ago, Gee said teams in the major conferences such as the Big Ten and SEC are more deserving to play for the BCS national championship because they play tougher competition every week. "We do not play the Little Sisters of the Poor," he said.

That didn't go over very well at TCU and Boise State, both of which at the time were hoping to turn undefeated seasons into a case for inclusion in the Tostitos BCS National Championship Game.

Boise State (10-1) lost to Nevada (No. 17 BCS, No. AP) last weekend, and is No. 11 BCS, No. 9 AP.

TCU is 12-0, and No. 3 in both standings.

Observers said Gee's comments fueled the perception that the so-called power conferences suffer from arrogance. It also was noted that according to Jeff Sagarin's computer ratings, Ohio State's strength of schedule, rated No. 64 in college football's top level, was comparable to Boise State (62) and TCU (76).

Gee told the Dispatch he has since decided, "I need to keep my mouth closed."

"I'm very blessed to have the best athletic director and best football coach in the country," Gee said, the newspaper reported. "They run the athletic program and I run the university, and I should have stayed out of there. What I should do is go over to the surgical suites and get my foot extricated from my mouth."

As for the real Little Sisters of the Poor -- a Roman Catholic women's religious order serving the elderly -- Gee said he had reached out to one of the order's homes in Ohio.

"I sent a [personal] check to the Mother Superior up there and invited her to a ballgame," he said, according to the report.
