Default Re: All time great NCAA FB teams...

02 Ohio State is the worst national champ in my lifetime

It took about 5 games worth of favorable calls/bounces to get them to that level...absolutely awful national title team
Before I get flamed:
1) Miami game-regardless of whether it was a hold or not, the flag came out way after the play. Plus, the Clarett strip back was a total butcher of the rules. When the Miami player's knee hit the ground, he still had both hand on the ball in a possessive way. Clarett had to take away the ball before the knee hit, which didn't happen. It's one of the worst calls ever, because the game was likely over if the play was called correctly.
2) Against Northwestern, there were 2 completely obvious out-of-bound calls on receptions blown in Ohio State's way. The game was close at the time and likely to remain so.
3) Against Penn St, 2 pass interference/non-interference calls were blown in the last 4 minutes in Ohio State's way
4) The Illini tied the game in OT. Walter Young caught the ball inbounds in the back of the endzone. Any replay shows that. Absolutely blown call, which took away the Illini's chance to win the game
5) The sole TD against Michigan, which was the difference in the game, was a false start by the right side of the Ohio State line. Ohio State started early and was able to blow Michigan off the ball. Clarett ran right behind that 'surge.'

That team struggled like hell to beat mediocre/crappy teams.

Ohio State has had at least 3 better teams in the last 15 years that just didn't catch every [censored] break.

That year is a black eye on college football's past.
