Bad news for the Buckeyes.
After winning the Big Ten, defeating Michigan, and getting a spot in the Rose Bowl, the rest of the college football world imploded. Now they'll be forced to play LSU on their home turf in the so-called National Championship game. Bah!
Nevermind the fact that a traditional matchup against USC would make for a much more entertaining game, now we'll have to spend the next month hearing about the supernatural speed and strength of the SEC. Gag.
The Bucks best hope is that LSU focus on Florida's 41-14 win a year ago and that they come into the game as an over-confident over-dog.
Tressel will need to game plan the heck out of this thing, give the offense some new wrinkles to play with, and hope that the defense can hold 'em under 21 points.
Otherwise, Ohio State and its reputation will again become the unfortunate victims of the BCS and its farcical championship.
