I guess riding the bench at OSU is better than senior year of high school?

I'd probably skip my senior year for a million dollars in NIL money if I could

I'm not saying he should definitely go to the other OSU, but it does seem like some things would fit.

This C-USA Championship is entertaining. Stupid amounts of offense. Expect to see plenty of offense in the PAC-12 Championship as well. But nothing like this.

Yeah, I mentioned in the Conference Champ game day thread that this is going to be a game of endurance. Whichever offense runs out of gas first.

UTSA found their footing after a few crusty weeks.

Meanwhile.....Utah continues their rolling of Oregon. I played the over here.....because I think Oregon is going to empty their playbook and get some of their elite athletes the ball in unique way. Guess we'll see.

Reading between the lines, it seems like there is a lot of disfunction behind the scenes with the BOR and boosters, with the boosters and not a small amount of the BOR wanting to actually put a focus on sports. Maybe this is the first real shot in the salvo.

UTSA might be winning CUSA in a blowout, but they lost to UNT, so how good are they really?


Utah beating the poo poo out of Oregon again. How soft must OSU be to lose to Oregon minus their best players?

UTSA rushed three and somehow let a guy get behind everyone. Possible TD a couple of plays later...nope he's short but they'll have the ball on the one.

the cool thing to do on the NCAA games is to make a crappy "cupcake" level team and replace a normal team with them giving them the same name and logo and everything and then see how long you can build them up into a champion, it was very amusing putting in a 1 star Texas team on NCAA '05 with players all sub-walk on quality and run the triple with them.

something i never appreciated about those old ps2 era games is the game lying to you in the create-a-team about the skill level of your players when picking your team type. it'd tell you your defense would be a like, B- and then when you go to the actual game your players stats would be D+ at best

i found that the trick was that, if you actually bothered to play the games that first year and get owned, your defensive stats would be pretty decent just because of playing five or six minute quarters and you could recruit at least some decent defensive guys and once you had a marginally fast CB you could just put him at quarterback and run the option out of the shotgun or just scramble and the computer absolutely could not stop that.

Lmao, good thing we decided not to recruit Allar over this dude only for him to not only jump a year then bounce. Get the bag, especially if the rumors are true that he needs starts next year to get his money, but goddamn is that bad luck for Ohio State right now.

On the other hand we plucked Devin Brown off of USC, so we have another blue chip QB for ‘22 and 3 scholarship guys on the roster for next year at least.

I read something on the 247 board about a Penn State fan who had an OSU friend who was lamenting Ewers was never going to play a down for Ohio State because of the current depth chart.

I would get top recruits and also do the weekly practice tasks, but my players wouldn't develop like they did for other teams. I still smoked everyone thanks to not playing on hard difficulty.
