Once he saw Alabama seize control from Michigan State, Vannett had to turn off the Cotton Bowl. The 2014 national champion Buckeyes had come so close to meeting the Crimson Tide in the semifinals for a second straight year. So to see another Big Ten team take a 38-0 beating didn't sit well with Vannett and the other former Ohio State players participating in this week's Senior Bowl in Mobile.

"It kinda made us look bad," Vannett said.
​

During the game, and afterwards, I don't recall any of the people I hang out with talking about how Bama's game vs Sparty made Ohio State look like anything ... not even a thought about them from my point of view.

" And I think the way we played in the last couple of games, we could have played against any team in the country. I know it would have been another war like it was the year before. So it would have been interesting to see."

I guess they should have played that way the last couple of regular season games. Then this would have all been moot. But instead, they skated through an easy B10 schedule, and got complacent, and it bit them in the hind parts. And I am assuming these two gentlemen are playing for the north (not capitalized on purpose) squad, so I hope their disappointment continues into next year.

Roll, National Champions, Roll!

I liked what he had to say, and the way he said. No trash talk, and seemed very respectful of Bama. H just wanted his chance. He knew his team blew it. No excuses.

He would be even more disappointed if they played Bama... Alabama would have had the revenge factor added on to their motivation, it wouldn't have stopped at 38 points... not by a long shot.

Made me feel bad when we went away from the run and let a 21-6 halftime ass whipping turn into an Ohio State loss but I ain't mad.

The one team that could have beat Bama, at that point of the season, gave it their everything and still came up 5 points short.

I also understand, he was probably asked that question and handled it with some class, so props to the guy.

From a talent perspective, I expected Ohio State to make the playoffs.

I was really hoping we'd get to play OU and Ohio State, but it wasn't in the cards this year...

I don't get the butthurt with the Ohio State players now one of the DB's has come out and said he would've done a better job than Michigan State.

OSU had the players, just didn't have the mindset. I hope we can maintain it next year too. It is hard to repeat and I'm looking to three-peat. Coach says he ain't all day to pass the Bear in NCs.

With a second string QB tOS team got beat by MSt. So yes that should make them upset. I don't this team would have beating this Bama team this year.
