which sucks because it’s a great conference with a ton of great tradition and great teams over the years. It’s also very entertaining since they’ve always been more innovative in their offense (sans Stanford).
But I listen to a lot of college football sports radio (mainly ESPNU Radio) and ESPN...
The HAVE and HAVE NOTS in college football keeps increasing. The playoffs in 6 years has featured only 2 PAC teams, 1 Big12 team w/ OU x5 years in a row, 2 B1G teams w/ OSU 3x, 2 ACC teams w/ Clemson 4x, and 3 SEC teams w/ Alabama 5x.
Preseason playoff predictions mostly featured Oklahoma...
The 2019 Buckeyes have posted a 107.55 score in the Sagarin College Football ratings system and a 34.7 rating in ESPN's FPI system, both of which are all-time records for each computer rating system.
Ohio State's 107.55 Sagarin rating is the best of any team since the BCS and College Football...
Michigan just pounded Maryland physically in that game. We've had the week off and I'm sure are rested and ready to play. I think we hang 60+. Ohio State has covered every game this season except their home opener against FAU.
Didn't even know that game was being played this weekend until somebody on the radio pointed it out. Both teams are struggling at 4-4. That game was so huge in the 80's, 90's, and much of the 00's. But with that historic rivalry going down this weekend, and on a weekend with the shittiest...
Now sitting with 3 top 10 wins, if they play Bama tough and somehow lose have they already done enough? Huge loss by Oklahoma as they’ve got major issues on defense and won’t have the resume to beat LSU. Nobody in the PAC but maybe Oregon if they win out? But Oregon lost to a common opponent LSU...
Seriously. Just sitting here watching this Oregon vs. Colorado game and each team size wise doesn’t measure up with what I see in other P5 teams. But that’s not too much uncommon when I think of PAC teams. So wanted to hear your all’s perception?
Only team in P5 since 2014 that hasn’t won a game as an underdog.
And meanwhile just learned Ohio State has best record in P5 since 2010 against the top 15 that finished with at least 9 wins.
Ohio State to put a DJ down on the field every game this season. What in the hell are they thinking? The college game is more and more watered down to cater to the fringe fans of the sport for entertainment. Don’t mind the tradition of the greatest band in college football, we need a mother...
To me, because of what's at stake and having navigated the playoffs making the Top 30 players, then winning with that much money on the line is arguably one of the toughest tests in golf. For the good of the game and to draw more attention to golf's equivalent of the Super Bowl or World Series...
In the past 10 seasons, there's been 19 preseason AP Top 10 teams finish the year unranked, including 3 last season (shame on you Auburn, Miami and Wisconsin). That's basically 2 per season. So predict the teams not to make this year. Next, predict the teams in the top 10 that will make the...
Other than geography for scheduling, what purpose do divisions play? I can think of several negative consequences but what are the positives. Lot of chatter this offseason about doing away with them, even heard discussion today of changing them every so many years. What we do know is we’d get...

That right there is a strong leaderboard coming down the stretch of an...
I’m pretty stoned just FYI but hear me out. With today’s news that California is pushing legislation to pay NCAA athletes for their likeness, I think this sets off a chain reaction of terrible events for the game.
1.) USC, Cal, UCLA and Stanford become automatically ineligible for postseason...
Inspired by the NHL game I attended the other night, it’s time we spiced up college football OT. I’m not a huge hockey fan but it was so much more fun to watch a 5 on 5 version of OT versus a traditional 7 on 7. The scoring opportunities were all opened up and the game was even more fast paced...
