I do not want OSU in. They don't deserve it.

Jeez Louise. Fans of 120+ teams would love to be OSU.

Well, OSU is routinely at the top, so anything less than beating TTUN and getting into the CFP is disappointing. It's not the top rivalry in college football for nothing.

Lots of questions about Day in Columbus now. He's getting shredded by all comers. Rightfully so too. They simply weren't prepared, and honestly, haven't been for a lot of games this year. He kind of has been getting by thanks to talent on the field. His play calling has been suspect for the past two years. For example, if I see another WR screen it'll be too soon. He seems to not know how to attack the middle of the field. He also dialed up terrible plays on big downs like the sweep on third and 2 in the 3rd quarter. He has the nation's best WR, but couldn't get him involved in the game except for one play? I hate that Day is failing because he's genuinely an exceptional person. He handles the off the field stuff better than anyone else in the country, like the mental health issue. Not sure how they fix this issue. Maybe bring Urban back as a consultant to Day to help him better prepare for games? Or do what TTUN did and bring in younger, hungry coordinators to give the program a kick start? If I was a betting man I would wager this is the route they go. OSU's AD won't sit back and take this loss without looking at changing something and everything else has been changed except HC and OC. The HC is calling the plays right now and shouldn't be. The OC is an old Kevin Wilson. I think he's the one that takes the fall.

I'll give Knowles a pass because he just arrived and looking at that secondary, he didn't have a lot to work with. If we had two corners that could play man we win that game easily. Unfortunately, we don't and they gave up the big passes. Later, when Knowles backed out of the box to help them, TTUN was able to finally run. Just a lack of talent on that side of the ball.

A&M helped you out a bit last night.

I have no idea what happened in any games. I don't watch college once OSU loses. I don't even remember who A&M were playing.

Lol. LSU.

I have often said I would take a losing season as long at we beat Ohio. One, because we beat Ohio. Two, because it probably meant we fucked up their post season too. I'd be right where you are right now too. 11-1 don't mean shit if you don't beat Ohio.

It's weird having a game next week.

Best rivalry in the nation. #2 isn't even close.

Maybe for football

1. It's not a "maybe".

2. It's far deeper than a bunch of UNC students being jealous of the far superior people at Duke. (This was my attempt at Catt level trolling. How'd I do?)

Alabama-Auburn was always the one I heard about growing up. And Army-Navy/FL-UGA. I even heard about Harvard-Yale before OSU-UofM. But I never cared much about NCAA football.

Alabama-Auburn (Iron Bowl)
Oklahoma-Texas (Red River Showdown)
Army-Navy.
USC-Notre Dame.
Ohio State-Michigan (The Game)
Florida-Georgia (World's Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party)
Miami (FL)-Florida State.
Harvard-Yale (The Game)

Already hearing bowls are fighting over one potential bowl matchup and they want it more than any CFP bowl game.

OSU-Alabama

Honestly, that's not even a shot at the CFP or the other teams. It's two of the biggest brands in the nation. A sellout and monster ratings are a guarantee.

TTUN-USC would be the biggest CFP matchup, in terms of, ratings.

Y'all should do a home and home.

Instead of Youngstown state

I know. But where was it this year? Things do get a lot better for OSU )or at least viewers) in the coming years iirc

They opened with Notre Dame. They also don't schedule Armpit U in week 8 like most SEC schools.

Although, with the 12 team playoff coming, perhaps these tougher OOC games disappear?

Yeah. If you just need top 12 just run through your conference and avoid the potential drop
