Okay, so in my earlier post mapping the Buckeye’s road to the BCS Championship, I failed to mention LSU. That is because I thought LSU was pretty much set and if anything, would face a tough game against Georgia or maybe Tennessee next weekend.
Did somebody say Arkansas?
With a second loss, that should knock LSU out of the BCS Championship hunt. However, the SEC being the SEC and the lobbying force that the SEC carries with it, LSU could lose the SEC championship and still have a shot at the big game.
But until then, with LSU out and either Kansas or Missouri coming out of the weekend with a loss, the Buckeyes should move to the third spot in the BCS behind the winner of Kansas/Missouri taking over #1 (did I just say that?) and West Virginia moving into #2.
Now of course, if WV blows it against UConn the Buckeyes move into second and that means we’re all booking trips to New Orleans in Jan.
For that much, if UConn can give WV a good run for the money, maybe take it to overtime or if WV just looks really, really bad and still pulls off a win, the Buckeyes could jump WV and move into second place.
If Oklahoma wins the Big 12 next weekend, that would mean Ohio State vs West Virginia in the BCS Championship…wouldn’t it?
I hear the weather in Pasadena isn’t all that nice this time of year anyway.
