Deadspin: Ohio State's loss to Virginia Tech the worst ever by a National Champion

Ohio State's Loss To Va Tech Was The Worst Ever By A National Champ

I'll spare you a major quote dump from the article, because, for lack of a better description, the paragraph I am posting below might be the most tame and nicest towards us. Let's just say, we're not exactly being spoken of in a very nice way. If you're offended by foul language, that is not the link you want to click.

Virginia Tech's SRS of 6.54 ranked 40th among this year's college football teams. Which is the lowest that a team who beat a national champion has ranked since 1968. The only two teams that really compare to Va Tech's shittiness are 1977 Ole Miss and 1990 North Carolina. Ole Miss of '77 had a losing record, but beat Notre Dame by seven at home. 1990 North Carolina had a slightly better record, 6-4-1, and managed to tie Georgia Tech at home.

And Something tells me this will be the first of many articles coming out over the next few weeks and months that puts a complete target on our backs for being this horrible team that somehow ended up beating the champs. I'll give this article some credit, they did put a little bit of analysis into it, but I'm not going to lie, I had a very tough time reading past the first paragraph after seeing the tone of the author. Complete and utter a-hole.

Someone needs to copy all articles like this and give it to the team for summer reading. I'm sure they'll absolutely love hearing about how awful they are all offseason long. Won't give them any extra motivation for that next game, no siree!
