I know it's a mid tier MAC team but Tilly and Noel are looking like huge upgrades, guys can both score AND distribute from down low. Ivan looks like he's been putting in good work too. He might actually become a decent backup option

This is some real honest stuff from Justin. That’s some brutal honesty that a lot of players don’t speak up about until they are out of the league , or even worse, post-mortem. You can’t perform at any level, especially a stage of this magnitude if you are battling mental issues (no shame).

I love the Bengals, but I’m happy Justin got the win.

Edit: Not great this week.

Anyone figure out what tOSU was paying per point for the xfer duo of the kid from Duke and Kentucky? Both gone now, and believe we have significant upgrades in place. Probably for a heckuva lot cheaper.

Heck, you'd be putting them up from outside if there's an 80% chance you'll get slammed into the stanchion. PS, most of these WNBA players were bigtime scorers in college. Forget the fact that some of them are now defensive specialists, and/or headhunters (with 6 fouls to give), cannot tell who's the good gals anymore, as all seems to blend together. The Finals was very telling, as the empty seats screamed out to the WNBA commissioner. Thought there was actually some good basketball being played amid the pathos that's the WNBA. With all the fake news out there, have no clue what's going on with the Fever, and CC. Are Lexie and Kelsey in or out? Sophie? CC going to Europe? Wifey gets a laughing fit when I throw all this stuff up to her......

And do the high jump.....escuse me, forget that cat's name, but do remember Steve Prefontaine....

This is going to be 'they've got nothing to lose' type of game. From the high-flying PSU at beginning of season, to firing their coach, and being a team with four losses mid-point, and with tOSU fans and talking heads bad-mouthing their DC, yeah, expect on-side kicks, flea-flickers, double-reverses, hail marys, and whatever else the interim coach can dream up. Plus, there's some pretty good, pissed-off athletes on that team. Will remind me/us of the final game on "The Replacements".

My son is a Giants fan so I feel a little extra bad on this one.

They just can't seem to have nice things.

Was I incorrect in telling my son that this is a career-ender for Skattebo? I'm sure he'll come back, but the way he plays, he's never going to be the same after an injury like that. He probably only had a few years before the CTE takes over anyway, so this might be best for his long-term health. Even a RB as great as Nick Chubb was never the same after his injury.

I said the same thing - sucks because he is fun to watch

Let's say Ohio State wins out, including winning the conference championship. They'll be #1.
Indiana wins out, except they lose to Ohio State in the conference championship. They could fall to #4 or #5. (No difference.)
Oregon wins out. They'll be #2 or #3.
USC wins out, unless they play Oregon or Indiana. They could be #7 or #10, if Oregon is #3, or #6 or #11, if Oregon is #2.
The Big Ten is then in all 4 quadrants.
I doubt the committee allows for this. They'll figure out a way to put all 4 in the same half of the bracket.
Given the above scenario, Ohio State will drop to #2, with Oregon #3. Indiana will drop to #6 or #7. USC will be #10 or #11 - whichever doesn't play Indiana in the first round.

Oregon ain’t sitting at 2 unless they sneak into the CCG with IU and OSU dropping 2 games. They lost to IU at home. They might sneak ahead in the AP but the committee will respect the win if records are the same.

Also why 10-2 Miami will get in over a 10-2 ND even if ND is above them in the AP.

One more.

This guy gets roasted hard in replies.

Would wish that the B10 teams are put in separate brackets. Unfortunately, going by history, the schedule makers put at least two B10 teams where they will cannibalize each other. So it goes. If it was my world, they'd put the four B10 qualifiers in separate brackets, and the semis would be all B10. But my world doesn't claim any sort of reality, only my wishes. Go Bucks!

teryl austin has to go, worst DC possible - I get the players have to do their jobs, but this dude calls the worst d - but he's Tomlins butt buddy so he's safe - going to finish the season 9-8 and miss the playoffs or get smoked in the wildcard round - the standard is the standard
