"Too good to lose." All we gotta do is show up and we win.

Georgia got an ass whooping in the Sugar Bowl. Bama got an ass whooping....................wait..............BAMA got an ASS WHOOPING.

I blame me. My generation cuddled our kids and kissed their ass. We created a bunch of pansy ass holier than thou egomaniacs.

We don’t have any 5 star egos or 5 star talent either.

We've got one 5 star. I hope he is Jesus Christ because we need a miracle.

So you're saying you got a chance at being Iowa successful? Make them 3-stars famous, amirite?
Well we took a walk on and made him the B1G lineman of the year over the likes of Winovich and Gary. That should be good for at least 3.5*s.

Team culture is a large part of it, yes. If your coach is a black hole of a personality... if you had to guess, which one of these coaches that played in the title game is not like the other

The trick is to only recruit 5 star offensive linemen

Notre Dame's five stars are usually offensive linemen so they don't have that problem.

I don't think egos are some kind of recent phenomenom. Recruiting gets more attention now than before but I think had we had twitter back thirty years ago the results would be the same with those kids. The Fab five are pulling up on fifty btw

I would say both. If one isn’t like the other, that would mean the other isn’t like the one.

No. Our inability to get our 5 star talent the ball is the problem.

Seems like half of OU's 5 stars are busts.

Signed 4 this year, all seemed like pretty high character guys also.

Hell yeah man. As a Cincinnatian with lofty expectations and a rich football tradition, it's killing our momentum from competing against the likes of Clemson and Alabama.

We have little 5 stars these days and they suck if we have any.
