Yes, but knowing it conceptually and then actually feeling it can be two different things.
I have to admit, though, that if Ohio State and Jim Delany are fuming right now, as I know I would be, they have done a remarkable job of keeping a proper poker face about it. Both issued bland statements expressing mild disappointment but also respect for the system, very classy.
