I think we all still believe that you should win your conference to go. No one has argued for Ohio State in the playoff. Sorry, I was using "you guys" as a generalization for a larger swath of the public. Ten years ago...I am not sure what I had for breakfast, so I may be guilty. As I hav...

Do you think he would make that move?

My position was that the Buckeyes should be in. But I am going by the simple statement of them selecting the best 4 teams, with no acsolute criterion set. I would be good with PSU going, but the committee should declare a conference championship is requried. And I think it should be, as odd as that ...

There are a lot of ways to look at coaching changes and staying for the bowl game. There is some right on both sides, but teaching kids to finish what they start is way, way up there in my book. Heck most adults need lessons in this. I heard Texas will not participate in the bowl game if invited. I ...

We have 40 bowl games (80 spots)??? WHY??? Doesn't that dilute the Bowl System? And is that not their intention?? The first question was a serious one that I truly believe the answer to is YES. The second follows after I put on my @TinFoilHat Ding, ding, ding...the head, the nail. Ridiculous amount...

100 people were asked why Orgeron should be happy?

The top 4 answers on the board...

1) Head Coaching Job
2) Dead Presidents
3) Don't Have To Move
4) Make LSU Great Again

I normally would agree but with the 3 team blur atop the Big 10 I find myself not. Penn St beat OSU at home by 3 points. That is pretty much a draw to me, if they had won by 6 or beaten them on the road my opinion would be much different. The Buckeyes resume is better. The committee has thought so u...

I would take Fleck if it were my decision. And I don't think Fleck should take a job like Purdue. Why? So he can build up another program and garner much attention after 4 or 5 years then go to a headline university and do it again!?!? If I were his agent my plan would be to go big or stay home anot...

When you don't have the man power there are just things you can't do. There is certainly no arguing that point ... at least, not logically, anyway. . . . Not with us guys who know a little bit. Yet I hear guys talking about, "that is the back field though!" Yeah, if the safety can't push ...

...has thrown a wrench in the Championship works. The conference was top heavy this year which goes a long way into achieving this. But this is expected to happen often and there isn't anything you can do about it. The OOC games add to the slurry as reported by some. But they shouldn't, there are 4 ...

I wouldn't look for any college post season without significant issues. 1) An extra-curricular activity is a multi-billion dollar industry. 2) The universities have a lot of money on the line today, the players have a lot of money on the line tomorrow. 3) Talking heads make a lot of money of talking...

Well, in those games where UL lost and Lamar fumbled he was trying too hard, trying to do all the work when the O-line basically gave up. His fumbling wasn't the real problem to me it was his pass inaccuracy at times. Too much zip, a hair too far or too short; probably too much adrenaline. I think ...

What this points to is that rankings aren't predictors and ranking formulas aren't constructed like predictor algorithms (which aren't all that great.) If NW compared to Michigan seem out of whack yet Michigan compares as you would expect to the teams a few slots above and below them and you can do ...

I think the Buckeyes can still go. And I think should. Week-in Week-out I think they are the only other team of Bama's caliber. I think Wisconsin beating Penn State in the CCG is key, which I think is rather likely. Ohio State beat the Badgers and given how the team looks on the field I think they w...

Bama #1 and the Buckeyes #2, I think that much is clear. Then what?? Louisville lost to Clemson. Many, including myself, think the Cards were always better. But each has 1 loss and Clemson beat them. Michigan lost to a not good Iowa, a team that lost to #4 ND St (in the FCS). You can't put the Badge...
