Mich st playing way to conservative had chances to do some thing against buckeyes but sitting on ball. They will not beat OSU playing like that.

I don't think anyone actually expects MSU to beat OSU anyways. More think Michigan has a chance. I don't see the Suckeyes getting one over on Saban and Bama again this year regardless.

14-14 now. It's Ohio State that looks conservative to me. Only 4 first downs in 3rd quarter. Raining hard.

OSU playing not to lose. Those people will destroy that town tonight if MSU can steal this one. Nasty bunch of fans in Columbus.

Looks like their conservative strategy worked------and OSU's failed.

Last second 41 yard field goal, I love it.

What in the world happened to Ohio State's offense? I know Michigan State's defense is good but Ohio State should get 150 yards against an NFL defense.

They played not to lose, and they didn't lose.

Not sure what the problem with that is.

So OSU is done, correct? Don't see how they could move back up to top 4 after this. HATE their fans.

They should be done. MSU could lose to Penn ST next week and if OSU beats Michigan I suppose they could win the division still that way. But yeah, they should be done. I would have to think if MSU wins out they get the playoff spot.

Biggest winners in all of this: 1. Alabama. They have it made now. I don't see any of the potential playoff teams now as much of a threat to them as OSU would have been matching them talent wise. 2. ND: Win and you are in Domers...for sure now. That said, I think Stanford will beat them. If you wanted my best guess going forward (sure to go wrong) on playoff teams the final week.

1. Clemson (highly disagree with this but if they did not move Bama over them this week I don't see them doing it ever). 2. Bama. 3. Michigan State 4. Oklahoma.

Yep. MSU controlled both lines of scrimmage. Basically just ran it down their throat in 2nd half despite giving them 2 TDs on turnovers.
Wow. Guess now all the OSU shirts and caps where I live will go into the closet till next year. The area of Ohio where I live, not close to Ky, I see just about as many UK shirts/caps as I do OSU which shows the reach of BBN. Many times even more.
