BCS National Championship Game

That sounds like Buckeye logic there!

Best Loss
The Ohio State Buckeyes redeemed themselves after playing in two consecutive BCS Championship Games as if they would have preferred to have stayed on campus and start 6 a.m. winter conditioning drills. Ohio State rallied in the fourth quarter for a field goal and two touchdowns to take a 21-17 lead over Texas with 2:05 to play. A great call by the Longhorns against a Buckeyes blitz resulted in a 26-yard touchdown pass from Colt McCoy to Quan Cosby with 16 seconds left.

Every loss stinks. But at least, and at last, the Buckeyes played hard and played smart in January.
