Go Blue!

Another dominant performace against perennial powerhouse Cinncinasty.
That was anything but dominant. I'd be embarrassed. Is there another team in that shit state you can root for?

Maybe some high school teams? Fuck. I feel for ya bro.

Shocked OU beat the Buckeyes Hauler @Hauler
Sucks.

Ohio State's offense is so pedestrian. I don't want to blame Barrett, but that's where I'm at. That and play calling.

And their corners can't cover shit. With that d-line, they only have to cover their guy for about 3 seconds but they can't do it.

Oklahoma played lights out. Props to them. No excuses here. They were better.

I've always thought Urban Meyer was a tad overrated. Not nearly as bad as John Calipari in basketball (who is a total fraud), but kind of in that same mold of great recruiter but below average CEO/Coach. Fuck look at Ohio State's recruiting classes...every class has multiple 5*, usually the best players at their position, and then rounded out with elite 4*. It's unreal. They shouldn't lose any home games, ever.

I like Urban, but I agree they shouldn't lose home games.
Barrett looks slow and indecisive, but they've hitched their wagon to him so there won't be a change coming.

The corners are what puzzle me. Indiana and Oklahoma are both very good offenses so I fully expect Ohio State to be there at the end, but unless they improve the corner play on D and Barrett can start hitting his marks it won't matter. They won't be beating any elite teams. And no Mix6APlix @Mix6APlix, I don't consider Michigan an elite team. You guys are still going to get fucking SMOKED in November.

Huge game for Louisville this Saturday against Clemson. The three years we've played them, every game has been extremely close but we cant seem to get over the hump. Hoping this is the year. We get them at home and I'm hoping it winds up being the Gameday night game. Papa Johns Cardinal Stadium will be bonkers.

Clemson's defense is scary good though. They held Auburn to 117 yards last night.

Announced that this is the ESPN gameday game. Game time moved from 3:30pm ET, to the primetime 8pm ET slot on ABC. Going to be a loooong week waiting for this one. HYPED.

Should be good. How has Louisville's D looked this year? Better?

Not very good bud. Run defense is top 5 after first two games, but they don't get a lot of pressure on the QB and our secondary is struggling. We have an All American (Jaire Alexander) at corner and one good safety (Chucky Williams)....but the other corner (#15 Tru Washington) is terrible, and the other safety (Khane Pass) doesn't have a lot of experience.

Alexander got hurt mid way thru the Purdue game and they threw all over us. And he missed the UNC game and they threw all over us. I think he'll be back for Clemson but look for them to exploit the opposite side of the field...a lot.

If you are going to "plant" a flag, you should probably make sure you do it in actual grass and dirt.

Your timeline is a little off.

TO did that in 2000.
Appalachian State beat Michigan in 2007.

Bwhahahahahahaha

I'm watching Mike and Mike on ESPN, and Greenberg pulls out his phone and asks Siri "Who owns Ohio Stadium"?

Siri responds "It's Baker Mayfield".
