NCAA Football 2011-2012

OSU vacated everything from the bowl game last year. It's like they didn't even go.

I highly doubt they gave back the money they recieved from the bowl game...but I could be wrong.

I might have, don't remember. I did argue against UGA a few years ago in favor of LSU and Ohio St.Course it doesn't matter as this years SEC championship game will be a repeat of '05

I doubt that, no matter who goes from the west. I think it's funny how Georgia can look terrible at the beginning of the season, start playing better, then all of a sudden they're the hottest thing in college football and should be placed above others...as in '07. Georgia's PR machine is very strong it seems.

Did they give Arkansas their pride back?

 

[The Insider]

Do they not know how seriously we take this stuff? We almost kicked Arkansas out of the SEC for that mess.

 

[SandraC]

They don't deserve their pride back...tattoos or no tattoos they lost on the field fair and square!!!

Wrong 'em boyo

Ohio State athletic director Gene Smith took a proactive approach, perhaps anticipating that the self-imposed sanctions he already announced would carry little with the committee, and announced that the university would forfeit its share of money from the Buckeyes Sugar Bowl appearance.

Each conference receives a substantial check for sending a team to a BCS bowl game and those earnings are then split up among all the teams in the conference. Ohio State already erased the win over Arkansas from the record books, and now it will fork over its $338,881 in winnings.

See....google IS your friend. Hopefully, there will be a post stating they DID handed over instead of 'they are going to hand it over'.

You never know of the media.... LOL!

So? Vacated Smacated... big deal to the team that could have played in that game ahead of liars and those that broke rules.


But on another note....Ole Rich Rod getting a big raise.. almost 10Million for 5 years with bonuses if they make a BCS Bowl and NC game.

umm not hating at all...not once have I said I hated them - I just don't consider it fair but it is what it is and another team will be screwed out of a bowl game spot - lets just hope a low tier bowl picks them cause that's all that is left.

Damn right we won't be turning down any bowl. Our players have been punished enough. Time to move on people!!!

They would be best to turn down the bowl this year as a preemptive strike. They still do not have the full ruling from the NCAA and they could still have a bowl ban imposed. Impose your own bowl ban this year when you were not any good and go to a bowl next when the team may be better.

I bet he was getting close to that if not more at Michigan. I guess you could say it is a big raise as he went from $0 to 2 Million a year since he didn't have a job.

 

[JAG72]

No certainly not but it happened and the results are different... now back to my healthy buckeyes.

I like eating buckeyes. They are really delicious.

 

[Jimbo]

His mommy probably wants him close to home. Where else would he go in Ohio?

What, you've never had a Top player from your state go to the Big Time University before ?

 

[Jimbo]

Yeah that's BS!! They shouldn't have been allowed to play in last years bowl game but noooooo players promised and look what happened...total bs!

Just WHAT DID happen ?

Um, 1 childish player left (Pryor).
All the other players stayed and took thier 6 game punishment.
Possey ended up wasting his whole year, he didn't know till week 6 that he wasn't going to be able to come back till after game 10 ..... this kid got ripped off of his Athletic career ....

He's done now and probably should have went in the draft LAST year had he had any idea of what was coming down.

Ummm, I believe they did.

No they wont, theres PLENTY of Bowl games to go around.
Theres WAY TOO MANY actually.

As long as you can make it to .500 your invited to a bowl game, If I were the one running things that would not be the case, it reminds me of pee wee when EVERYONE gets a trophy for participating.

Make a Bowl game something you have to TRY for and be proud to go.
I say no one with less than a 8-4 record should be able to go in a 12 game season.

I think they have IMPOSED ENOUGH on thier own .... they need to quit opening thier mouths and volentering and just let the NCAA did what they are going to do, they probably wouldn't have had half the punishment had they not VOLUNTEERED all this junk.
