Michigan was robbed

[Auggie]

Bad spot on fourth down in double OT.

1. GO BUCKEYES!!1!!

I'll wait to start my own thread, until Elway Supremo comments!!

[KamaAina]

4. I figured you were waiting until you'd burned your stolen referee suit

and taken the back way home.

[El Supremo]

6. Go State!

[madinmaryland]

12. Both *ichigan teams tried to beat The Ohio State University Buckeyes and FAILED!!

*ighty funny!! I did use a s*ilie though!!

[JonLP24]

15. They still haven't beat Western *ichigan

[madinmaryland]

16. Nor Central *ichigan. Though I don't know if they have ever played those tea*s.

Edited to add: Ohio State beat Western *ichigan in 2015 38-15, which is the only ti*e the two tea*s have *et. They have never played Central *ichigan!!

[JonLP24]

17. Don't forget about Eastern *ichigan

[bluedigger]

2. I thought so too.

He went sideways and got rolled back.

[El Supremo]

3. I reluctantly disagree.

His forward progress put him on the mark. And he was down (I think).

Now comes another bullshit consequence of conference championship games. Ohio State will root for Penn State to beat Michigan State so they won't have to play in the championship yet retain their #2 CFB ranking.

[KamaAina]

5. Wait, wut? How can a team that doesn't even win its division stay #2?!

And mad should definitely take some time to reflect on the fact that his big win all but assures State Pen of a berth in the B1G title game.

[madinmaryland]

11. Ironically, it probably benefits The Ohio State University Buckeyes if State Penn wins

and plays Wisconsin in the Big 10 championship game. OSU will be the only one loss team in the Big 10 regardless of who wins or loses. Maybe I'll have to root for joeybee's favourite team Penn State, this afternoon.

10. I saw the player cross the marker but not the ball. There were other questionable calls too ...

fucking Russians hacked the game.

[madinmaryland]

13. i.e. that *eans you are reluctantly agreeing with *adin*aryland!!

Da*n, that's pretty fucking funny!!

[JonLP24]

7. Damn I missed it

I assumed the game would be on primetime so I slept in.

[El Supremo]

8. I don't know. Here it is:

[JonLP24]

9. I can't see the ball

At the very least right where the yellow line is.

[caraher]

14. For this play the white line is what he needs to make

They start the series on the 25, so he needed to make the 15, no matter what ABC's yellow line suggests. That was so close that I can't blame the refs either way. But they did blow a lot of earlier calls in favor of the Buckeyes (Harbaugh even left some out of his postgame rant - I hope he enjoys his fine!). Regardless, the fact is that the margin in this game was razor-thin, to the point you can't really point to any single play as decisive. Harbaugh could have managed not to draw a flag against himself (OK, maybe not, it's part of the routine), Speight might have managed not to toss either of his two horrible picks, OSU might have made their chip-shot FGs...
