They beat an overachieving team who had a horrible game while they had a great game. They were the best team yesterday without a doubt.

There’s doubt whether they were the best team last Saturday or Ohio State was.

I don’t understand your logic, OSU only made the playoffs because another team lost their conference championship the week they weren’t playing because of their earlier loss to Michigan. There is no doubt which team was the best this year.

I’m only responding to OP saying they were clearly the “best”.

That’s either a meaningless statement because the winner every year can be the “clearly the best” since they won. Yeah they’re the best. But if they won by 1 point after trailing by 20+ points in the 4q and assisted by a huge choke job they’d be the best too.

Or he’s saying the big margin of victory yesterday meant they “clearly the best” compared with other champions who won by a slimmer margin. Which ignores how they almost lost last Saturday.

None of Ohio State’s past losses mattered on NYE. If they won then beat TCU they’d be champs.
