Lol Let me laugh you out of the building. No one blamed him for the 2022 game. If anything they blamed Knowles.He lost the bowl game in 2022, and laid an absolute rotten egg in the bowl game in 2023. People here were actively calling him Cooper 2.0.
I don't give a shit WHO was coaching that team in 2023, they weren't winning that game once Brown got hurt.He lost the bowl game in 2022, and laid an absolute rotten egg in the bowl game in 2023. People here were actively calling him Cooper 2.0.
I still can’t wrap my head around DeBoer potentially leaving for them. If he beats IU, I just cannot envision Alabama letting him walk away.
if they had a deal worked out already I also struggle with it staying this tightly under wraps.
That guy would have to smoke more Crack than Tyrone Biggums in a Dave Chappelle Show episode to leave Tuscaloosa for the whore up north.I still can’t wrap my head around DeBoer potentially leaving for them. If he beats IU, I just cannot envision Alabama letting him walk away.

Ehh you say that but the SEC seems to let them play physical and in general they hate targeting lolThis is partly skewed by officiating tendencies from conference to conference. With the likelihood that we'll draw an SEC crew for this game, we should expect penalties to be called more aggressively than we're used to in Big Ten games. SEC and ACC refs are not shy about throwing flags

This dweeb got way too big on tCun because of some cheating. He's a dorky Scam Webb now. Calls Brohm the "best developer of QBs in the game" because of David Blough and Aiden O'Connell? Huh?

Merry Christmas to you too!MERRY CHRISTMAS (my 20th on BP) to all my fellow BP'ers who celebrate. Im sure Ill be online again but wanted to get that out there.
GO BUCKS!
It was a variety of things. IUs front was very active with a lot of stunts and their back 7 was very good. They’re a very zone heavy team.Regarding Ohio State’s pass protection, the impression I got against Indiana wasn’t that the players were getting beat badly in one vs one situations (outside of possibly RG, who was probably playing injured and is getting a new starter and seemingly can’t get much worse), it was Indiana doing things in the back 7 to confuse Sayin and make him hold the ball too long, allowing the stunting rush to get home.
Sayin said during interviews yesterday that he felt he was holding the ball too long.
This was helped by Indiana having extra weeks to prepare a scheme specifically to mess with Sayin, and hurt (from Ohio State’s perspective) by the complete trash fire of a week Ohio State had combined with receivers who weren’t 100%.
I don’t think the OL situation is as bad as it feels right now, despite Miami’s DL clearly being good.
I think healthy receivers, a better scheme (more time to prepare plus more focused coaches), a more locked in Sayin (who isn’t losing time to the awards circuit), and an opponent who hasn’t been exclusively preparing for a month, are all factors that will give the offense the ability to look much, much better than their last performance despite a significant challenge for the OL in pass protection.

The Group of Five belongs in the CFP, but there's no room for Cinderella

Group of Five schools belong in the College Football Playoff, but a modern Cinderella is unlikely
Why modern college football is not built for the 'little guy' anymore
A mere mention of the term "Group of Five" makes certain sects of the college football fandom flare up. There is a seemingly eternal debate -- especially around the College Football Playoff -- surrounding whether Group of Five programs deserve the same level of access as their Power Four counterparts.
The arguments can become impassioned and are often the source of long chains of back-and-forth on social media. Make no mistake: this writer stands firmly on the side that the Group of Five needs some sort of representation in the College Football Playoff. Anything less would completely delegitimize over half the schools in the FBS.
Thanks to some ACC shenanigans, an unprecedented two Group of Five squads made the 12-team field. No. 11 Tulane suffered a 41-10 loss to No. 6 Ole Miss and No. 12 James Madison put up a good fight in a 51-34 road defeat at the hands of No. 5 Oregon. The Dukes did fall behind 34-6 late in the second quarter.
Neither Tulane nor James Madison performed terribly, even if the final scores tell a different story. The Green Wave moved the ball well offensively -- they had 421 yards of total offense to Ole Miss' 497 -- but several back-breaking mistakes prevented them from capitalizing. James Madison could have rolled over after digging itself into a deep hole early. Instead, the Dukes outscored Oregon, which kept its first team on the field for a majority of the game, 28-17 in the second half.
Moral victories don't count for much in a single-elimination format. Unfortunately for the Group of Five, moral victories are the closest it will get to College Football Playoff success. Modern college football isn't built to support Cinderellas.

Expanding the College Football Playoff field won't fix this issue. College football's postseason isn't March Madness, where a smaller team can get hot while making an inspiring run deep into the tournament.
Make no mistake then, that writer isn't making any sense.Make no mistake: this writer stands firmly on the side that the Group of Five needs some sort of representation in the College Football Playoff. Anything less would completely delegitimize over half the schools in the FBS.
