    The math behind going for 2 when down by 14 late in game and scoring a TD.

    Coaches would rather "extend the game" than win the game. Ryan Day was guilty of this in OSU's loss to Oregon. I don't understand why OSU didn't go for 2 after its last touchdown in the 3rd quarter. If they didn't make it they would have ended up losing by 2. Instead they lost by 1. If they had...

    Thoughts from the Couch - Ohio State

    Good summary. The "World Famous Ohio State" is annoying buy I kind of get why he says it. Whenever a movie is made with some college football reference is involved it seems like its OSU. Those 2 Keanu Reaves movies, the one with Chadwick Boseman, etc.

    Urban Meyer: An Indictment

    Meyer is scummy, but OSU has nothing to do with his new gig. The NIL entity is completely independent from OSU and is run by boosters.

    Tom Brady announces retirement

    No doubt the GOAT. Won a Superbowl at age 43 with his 2nd team. In MVP contention at age 44. I used to think Brady and Montana were equals a few years ago, but Brady has clearly passed him.

    Will Levis projected as first rounder in this 2023 mock draft

    #12 to Dolphins. What a major screwup by Franklin sticking with the mediocre Clifford! Mock draft

    A&M paying players for top recruiting class?

    US Supreme Court has stated it is firmly pro player. Think it was Kavanaugh who stated he doesn't understand why coaches are paid millions while the players who provide the product aren't. The Southern states will tell the NCAA to go to hell if it tries to crack down on buying players.

    FC: Caleb Williams looking to transfer?

    Reading OU forum "dirt burglars" someone there mentioned UGA is offering him $5M. Don't know if that is believable, but if that is the future of cfb I don't see the B1G schools playing that game.

    FC: Caleb Williams looking to transfer?

    NIL is just exposing the ugly underbelly of college football that was there all along. Now that paying players is "legal" with the NCAA does PSU play or sit on the sidelines? Reading rumors that Michigan and Ohio State have strong NIL pitches to recruits.

    FC: Caleb Williams looking to transfer?

    Franklin should contact him. He is from mid Atlantic region. Offer him an NIL bag and see what happens. Season is sunk with Clifford as qb.

    Utah-Buckeyes Rose Bowl Thread

    Frankly, Fleming just isn't as talented as Harrison Jr, JSN, and Egbuka. They are using Fleming as a guy on third down to move the sticks. I watched him against Utah and he was merely solid, not spectacular like the other three. Fleming did make some key blocks, but unfortunately he injured his...

    Utah-Buckeyes Rose Bowl Thread

    Where is this narrative coming from that OSU under Day is that much different than under Meyer? They would always have a head scratcher under Meyer (Iowa, Purdue) that they have avoided under Day. Meyer's last few defenses were pretty awful too in '17 and '18. Let's see how the Okie State...

    Barry did a story on the Board of Trustees meeting. References to possible new deal for Franklin.

    Masterful salesman indeed if he can get a raise and extension after the last two season's results.
