Ohio State in the BCS era:
Appearances School W L Pct
9* Ohio State 6* 3 .667
Games
Won 1999 Sugar Bowl
Won 2003 Fiesta Bowl
Won 2004 Fiesta Bowl
Won 2006 Fiesta Bowl
Lost 2007 BCS National Championship Game
Lost 2008 BCS National Championship Game
Lost 2009 Fiesta Bowl
Won 2010 Rose Bowl
Won 2011 Sugar Bowl (Vacated)
The 9 appearances are the most by any team. The 2011 win was against an SEC team; vacated or not they beat them on the field.
UL has only been to two BCS bowls: Wake Forest in the 2007 Orange Bowl and Florida in the 2013 Sugar Bowl. Yes, one of your two wins was against Wake Freakin Forest.
Please don't argue the relative strength of the B1G with me, because I believe you are a Louisville fan. Louisville doesn't play anybody, period. UL has never won a national championship in football. Ohio State has won a NC 7 times, including beating what was regarded as a very, very good "fast" Miami team in the BCS era. And don't bother bringing up the "late call" in the end zone in that game, because defensive holding should have been called earlier.
Ohio State plays the schedule that was developed for it for a given season. Schedules that are put together years before they're played. In the recent past OOC games have included Texas and USC when both were very good. Like it or not, the B1G had at least 3 legitimate teams this year: Ohio State, MSU and Whisky. I don't need to discuss the AAAAAAAC's pedigree here.
Better yet, here was UL's schedule this year:
Ohio
Eastern Kentucky
at Kentucky
FIU
BYE
at Temple
Rutgers
Central Florida
at USF*
BYE
Connecticut
Houston
Memphis
BYE
Cincinnati
A UL fan calling Ohio State a fraud is funny. It's funny only because you are a fellow Xavier fan; it would be sad otherwise.X A V I E R

Not really.
I consider myself to be an objective Ohio State fan. On that note, I've held all season that Ohio State's defense is not a NC game caliber defense. I may have been one of the few people who regretted Saban's brain cramp (i.e. why don't you rely on your senior QB in overtime versus attempting a low percentage kill with Perfect Storm (big linemen; runback risk) circumstances). I felt that way because I would have preferred Ohio State in the 100th Rose Bowl, versus getting into this year's NC game.
I get that there are obnoxious Ohio State fans. Perhaps its kind of like UD Fans-Cubed, but with accomplishments.
I'm just a little tired of reading that Ohio State in football is some kind of fraud. If Ohio State is some kind of fraud in college football, I don't know what that means for college football.X A V I E R
