Hey Phil! What a day. Brown isn't very efficient, but he is a gamer. I think we are in for a big year!

Re: Ohio State Game Chat
We win in one of the most hostile stadiums for opposing teams in America. So good! Be well, everyone. See you all next week...

Well, it looks that way but Colorado is looking dominant against aTm so far. I'd say CU knocking off the #5 team would be a huge game for the conference, too!
But this was on the road at #3, so a great, great win. I'm not really sure OSU is good for a #3 ranking, though. Very impressed by Stroud and their passing game but their running game certainly isn't top 3 quality, and their defense just isn't that good yet. They might be very, very good by the end of the year but not yet.I wonder if we jump into the top five in the AP? Bama, UGa, then UO?
Cincy, Notre Dame, aTm, none have looked impressive. Oklahoma isn't going to win much credibility even if they crush WVU, since they lost to Eastern Kentucky. I'm guessing we'll be fourth, behind Bama, UGa, and Clemson. I'm guessing there will be some voters who put Ohio State above us, because. Some will put Oklahoma ahead of us, too. But I think we'll definitely be top 5 and we should be 3 or 4.
In the eyes of the committee right now we'd be fourth at worst. Only Georgia has arguably a better win, and that was a home game.

Right now, with Oregon beating a respected Fresno, and now tOSU, I'd say we have more quality wins than anyone else right now.

Probably true. Of course, we still don't know what is or isn't a quality win, everything is still reputation right now.
Based on reputation, I think there's one team that might have an argument. Last week, Iowa hammered Indiana, who was ranked before the game. This week, they beat the #9 team on the road. That's two pretty good looking wins, based on the preseason rep of the teams they beat. But no one is going to rank Iowa first after two weeks no matter what they do.
