Ohio State must annihilate TTUN to carry out justice for the rest of college football​

At the end of the season, the Ohio State Buckeyes must absolutely torch the Wolverines. They were gifted a win that they clearly did not deserve. After years of documented cheating, it seems they have gotten away with yet another victory they should not have obtained.

While Ohio State can't give that victory back to the Broncos, they can embarrass the Wolverines to the point of no return. In that opener, it was abundantly clear that Kyle Whittingham's team is going to struggle this season. They very well could lose six or seven games this season.

With that being the case, there is a chance that a loss to the Buckeyes would knock TTUN out of contention for playing in a bowl game. There is no greater humiliation that they could suffer than to lose to the Scarlet and Gray by 50 in order to miss out on a bowl game.

That margin of defeat is in play for the Wolverines after the play of Bryce Underwood. Underwood finished the game against Western Michigan 12/22 for 170 yards, one touchdown, one pick, and a fumble. Take away that nonsense Hail Mary, and he only threw for 123 yards against a MAC school.

Colonoscopy 2.0 and skirts

Had mine yesterday. Went almost 40 hours with nothing but water, 7-Up zero, and the full gallon of tasty flush-you.

I was out for the procedure and came out of it after only about 35 minutes. They cut 1 small polyp so I guess it was worth doing. I did get the doc to laugh when she gave me the picture of the polyp and I said ‘I don’t get a DVD?”
What I remember most about mine was my doctor was Taiwanese and had the personality of Long Duck Dong. He was singing "It's a Small World" as the wheeled me into to the room. The sleepy juice hit and in a snap of the fingers I was looking at HD pics of inside my colon with the nurse. No polyps.

QB Luke Fahey (Official Thread)

Luke Fahey looks to have won the backup job over Tavien St. Clair​

A lot of the chatter over the last few weeks centered on a legitimate quarterback competition for the backup spot behind Sayin. The expectation was that Tavien St. Clair still held that job. He’s a former 5-star recruit and one of the top quarterbacks in the 2025 class, and he already had a full year in the program under his belt.

That’s what makes Saturday’s development so notable. It wasn’t St. Clair who entered the game as Ohio State’s No. 2 quarterback. It was freshman Luke Fahey.

Fahey has been a bright spot in Ohio State’s freshman class this past offseason, and he asserted himself as a real competitor in the quarterback room throughout fall camp. Listed at just 5-foot-11, Fahey doesn’t fit the prototypical size profile, but his play earned him the opportunity over a player with more experience and recruiting pedigree. Fahey finished 5-of-7 for 62 passing yards, one passing touchdown, and one interception on a Chris Henry Jr. drop.

Even if the backup quarterback job isn’t fully solidified at this point, Fahey clearly owns the lead in that race. For him to leapfrog St. Clair is a significant statement about where things stand in that room.

Florida Gators (official thread)

Florida's 'gator bait' cheer, banned in '20, revived at opener

The University of Florida revived its "gator bait" cheer Saturday night during its season opener, bringing it back more than six years after the school banned it because of "horrific historic racist imagery" associated with the phrase.

New school president Stuart Bell said in June that "traditions matter" and hinted that the cheer could return because "it's meaningful to the Gator family."

It returned to the Swamp early in the first quarter against Florida Atlantic and was welcomed with a raucous reception. It was far from a surprise because clips of Florida's band practicing the accompanying tune were shared on social media this week.

Former Florida president Kent Fuchs announced in June 2020 that Florida's band would no longer play the musical cue prompting fans to chant "gator bait" because of concerns about possible racial undertones. Art depicting alligator hunters using Black babies to lure the animals into the open was popular in the late 1800s and early 1900s.
