Winning the Big Ten Championship Doesn't Resonate Like It Once Did - And That's a Shame

Urban Meyer met with the media on Sunday afternoon, fresh off learning his squad fell just outside the College Football Playoff field, as the committee discounted Ohio State's higher highs including a Big Ten championship, instead focusing on its lower lows, allowing Alabama to claim the fourth and final slot.

As you'd expect, everyone wanted to know what Meyer thought about his team's exclusion from the playoff, and more specifically the reasoning behind it, while also jumping ahead to Meyer's thoughts on playing USC in the Cotton Bowl.

I get it. The playoff snub was huge news and as for playing USC, that's what's next so jumping straight to those questions in this day and age is hardly shocking.
