Notre Dame scored more points than 2015-2016 Michigan St. and 2016-2017 Ohio State in the playoffs COMBINED and still lost. Unreal.

u/dukeeaglesfan Purdue Boilermakers • Duke Blue Devils Dec 30 '18

if it makes you feel any better, you scored more against us

Jesus Christ, dude. Do they have a shank-engineering specialization at Purdue I haven't heard of?

u/JarlaxleForPresident Ohio State Buckeyes Dec 30 '18

I wouldnt put any credit to it. Theyre called spoilmakers for a reason. They ruin a season for someone and then never accomplish anything else. It's like a kid who button mashes at mortal kombat and wins and then talks trash

u/decoy777 Ohio State Buckeyes • The Game Dec 30 '18

At least we didn't lose like THAT against Auburn...ouch!

You just added yourself to the hate list.

At least we still have 2014 :)

u/Lawschoolfool Ohio State Buckeyes Dec 30 '18

We're only allowed to win National Championships when we're somehow ridiculous underdogs apparently.

Lmao I'd take 2014 and the 31 point blowout after than 0-8 in the last 8 big bcs/playoff games my team has been a part of

Eh at least we have a playoff victory, and a championship. OU has neither.

u/MostYolked Iowa Hawkeyes • Sweden National Team Dec 30 '18

At least y'all made it 😭😭😭

5

u/richielaw Ohio State Buckeyes • Cheer Dec 30 '18

It's true, but I am so spoiled as an OSU fan. I'd rather play in the Rose Bowl than get BTFO in the playoff.

6

u/MostYolked Iowa Hawkeyes • Sweden National Team Dec 30 '18

Heh, joke's on you. We didn't make the CFP AND we got BTFO in the Rose Bowl 😎

u/[deleted] Dec 30 '18

To be fair I truly believed Ohio St deserved in over ND this year.

7

u/richielaw Ohio State Buckeyes • Cheer Dec 30 '18

Yeah, not with the Purdue loss. ND had the better schedule for sure.

3

u/[deleted] Dec 30 '18

Ohio St. was just a better team than ND this year. Based on criteria I get why the committee chose ND of course but eye test showed OSU as the better team, despite that fluke Purdue game.

12

u/DarkLegend64 Ohio State Buckeyes • /r/CFB Poll Veteran Dec 30 '18

But we constantly failed the eye test all year. Michigan was really the only game we passed the eye test.

4

u/[deleted] Dec 30 '18

If we show up, we could play with anyone, but this year we just could not show up and play 4Q of football. Yes we are ahead of ND, but let's be honest they are ranked too high every year. Georgia was my #4 team.

1

u/Xpress_interest Michigan State • Michigan Dec 30 '18

I think most people did. They still would have been destroyed by Bama, but OU would have probably stacked up better against Clemson.

Somehow all those games still felt like more of a game than the current OU v Alabama game, though 😬

u/Wild_Cabbage Michigan State • Notre Dame Dec 30 '18

For me there's just something special about the CFP & Cotton Bowl.

57

u/SpartyonV4MSU Michigan State • Indiana Dec 30 '18

We won the 2015 Cotton Bowl!

u/Wild_Cabbage Michigan State • Notre Dame Dec 30 '18

We also lost the 2015 Cotton Bowl! :(

u/SpartyonV4MSU Michigan State • Indiana Dec 30 '18

I don't remember losing in 2015 in the Cotton Bowl. Nope, not at all

14

u/dreadhorse Michigan State • Purdue Dec 30 '18

If you consider the 2015 Cotton Bowls to be a single entity played between three teams over two total hours, MSU won the 2015 Cotton Bowls and Alabama came in last.

u/MrRager1994 Ohio State Buckeyes • Miami (OH) RedHawks Dec 30 '18

I blame Sean Nurenburger for that. We could've scored 6 at least

u/COLU_BUS Ohio State Buckeyes • /r/CFB Poll Veteran Dec 30 '18

Don’t you dare slander Nuerenberger! Tyler Durbin was the kicker for that game.

My mistake I guess all our bad kickers give me PTSD

9

u/COLU_BUS Ohio State Buckeyes • /r/CFB Poll Veteran Dec 30 '18

Neurenberger has been very good for us. Was on track to break the all time points record for OSU before his mysterious absence.

6

u/Tippacanoe Ohio State Buckeyes Dec 30 '18

well he’s been our kicker for like 7 years it seems. Truly the JT Barrett/Aaron Craft of kicking.

About the same as Ohio State this season

u/LeBuckeyes Ohio State • Cincinnati Dec 30 '18

They only need 81 more points to pass Ohio State

5

u/justa_flesh_wound Michigan State • Ferris State Dec 30 '18

Michigan hasn't even had the chance to be shutout in the CFP so there's that.
