You could make these kind of statements about almost every team in college football almost every year.Beat Pitt at home by 7. Barely held on at home in a "white out" game against a mediocre Michigan team. Beat Indiana at home by 7. Lost to Minnesota. They're only in this game because of Ohio State's turnovers and some coin flip/questionable officiating, and their starting quarterback may have just lost his job after a single drive. There's a huge drop-off after the top three, with maybe Georgia in a tier of their own... maybe Penn State fits in that next group of good but flawed interchangeable teams, but they've been far from impressive this year.
Lol. That is the one thing that is not happening.Michigan is not mediocre, and hasn’t been for a month. Ranked 12th or 13th. They might surprise the Buckeyes next Saturday.
They hung in against a superior team after falling behind by 21. 10-2 is about right for this group.Penn State is definitely handlings things with stability right now.
It’s fun to think about.Lol. That is the one thing that is not happening.
Not really. They haven't beat a decent team this year by more than one possession. I never said they shouldn't have been ranked in the top 10... you go 9-1 in a P5 and you're going to get that ranking. They just haven't played like one if you look past the record.You could make these kind of statements about almost every team in college football almost every year.
In a conference as deep as this year’s BG1, close games are common, but your point is taken. OSU is only elite team in the conference.Not really. They haven't beat a decent team this year by more than one possession. I never said they shouldn't have been ranked in the top 10... you go 9-1 in a P5 and you're going to get that ranking. They just haven't played like one if you look past the record.
The story of this offense is they only had two quality receivers. Their 5-star from NJ, Justin Shorter, has struggled. But he’s getting better.That was so anemic by PSU on their last bunch of drives. Never had a chance.
Solid with for tOSU, but they have some work to do, still.
Seriously. Fuck those kids trying to have a fun time.Rushing the field when you're a 3 score favorite? What?
OSU has beat two top 25 teams... this will be their third. They'll beat PSU by 11.Not really. They haven't beat a decent team this year by more than one possession.

Indiana has really improved but most people don’t know that yet. Maybe a win over Michigan would do it.OSU has beat two top 25 teams... this will be their third. They'll beat PSU by 11.
Georgia lost to South Carolina and has beat no ranked teams by more than a possession.
Oregon has played two ranked teams, one loss and one win by 4
Utah has played one ranked team and won by 18
Pitt are 7-3, Iowa 8-3, Michigan 8-2, Indiana 7-3.. and I was at that game...I think they're a good team and will be really good next year. Maybe PSU isn't that great, but Indiana has some good receivers, QB and an RB...I guess we'll see how easily Michigan handles them today. But if you think that's a weak schedule compared to others in the top ten..I don't think that's true.
And the Minutemen still covered!UMass trails BYU 49-0 at Half. BYU scores 42 in the 2nd Quarter.
UMass has allowed 625 points scored this season.
Yale has the ball down a touchdown and if they score, I don’t think there will be daylight for many overtime periods, maybe not any at all.Harvard/Yale second half delayed by
“Climate Injustice”‘protestors on the field.
What a wild finish to that game, barely got it in under darkness from the looks of it. Eli’s share the Ivy title.Yale has the ball down a touchdown and if they score, I don’t think there will be daylight for many overtime periods, maybe not any at all.
I was surprised how good they were for being unranked. I hope it was clear that I think Indiana will be better next year.. I believe they have a young team (6 seniors and a ton of freshmen and sophomores) and had some talented pieces.Indiana has really improved but most people don’t know that yet. Maybe a win over Michigan would do it.
They may lose their fourth game of the season today though...against Georgia.well hard to say TAMU is having a down year as they sit here at 7-3 with losses to Bama Auburn, and Clemson. Right now they are by far Bama's second best win, and Clemson's best win
Word: great battle for the bottom rung of the Top 25.Navy/SMU is wild. Navy rushed 6 on 2nd and 11 with SMU going 5 wide. Burnt for a 60 yard TD pass to make it 28-28 with 12 minutes to go.
SMU tried a surprise onside kick, but Navy recovers.
Just got home after going out for pizza after this game. Greatest football game (and craziest) I've ever been to. Between the occupation of the field (we were wondering if Yale was going to have to forfeit at some point, even if there were probably more Harvard students involved), Harvard dealing blow after knockout blow over and over again, the amazing Yale rally, the game ending in near darkness, it was incredible. Completely unbelievable. I almost left in disgust at another Harvard blowout of Yale more than once. The Harvard tailback had 260 yards of rushing on TEN carries and scored four TDs of more than 40 yards apiece.Shades of ‘68. Yale down 14 with 4 minutes to go and ball inside their own 10. Score a TD with 90 seconds to go. Get the onside kick. Score with 18 seconds to tie it up. I would love to see what would have happened if they went to a 3rd OT. It was getting dark quickly.
Can make the argument for being the best 5 loss team ever (well at least the team with the 5 best losses ever), next week. They will have lost to (with ranking at time)They may lose their fourth game of the season today though...against Georgia.
