    HC Ryan Day (National Champion)

    And about having a better touchdown conversion rate in the red zone than your opponent has in the inverse red zone.

    Kristina Johnson (OSU President)

    That wasn't my experience at all. Working on grant proposals with professors across multiple departments in the late '90's, I found them all to be collegial and welcoming. Of course there's going to be some "politics" (ie. people trying to get status and privilege, sometimes through indirect...

    QB CJ Stroud (All B1G, 2022 B1G QB of the Year, All-American, NFL OROY, Houston Texans)

    Putting aside that Tressel and Meyer helped create that malaise, they both beat good-to-very-good Michigan teams. Sometimes emphatically, sometimes scratching it out. The '06 and '16 Michigan teams were approximately as good as the Michigan teams of the past two years, for example. Michigan's...

    SEC (It just means more.. even its losses are wins)

    It would be a different story if you had the prospect of an undefeated PAC12 champion and an undefeated ACC champion, but you don't have that this year.

    SEC (It just means more.. even its losses are wins)

    It's obviously true that winning a P5 CCG doesn't guarantee admission to the playoff, but I think winning the SEC CCG comes close, particularly when i) that team has a pair of elite wins, ii) that team appears to have improved significantly from the beginning of the season to the end, and iii)...

    SEC (It just means more.. even its losses are wins)

    I agree that LSU probably won't beat Georgia. But if they do win out through the CCG, I'd expect them to be in the playoff.

    Without the six turnovers that point total might have been cut in half.

    You can usually just go on youtube and search for "Ohio State vs. XXX 2022" to find a live feed. It worked today, and I don't think even Windows 11 will jam it up.

    Texas Longhorns (big hat, no cattle; please don’t Horns Down us)

    Not literally. Not even figuratively, in my opinion, but that is at least debatable.

    I found the 2000 Wisconsin-Michigan game extremely entertaining.

    Big Ten and other Conference Expansion

    On the issue of travel burdens, is a chartered team road trip from Columbus to Los Angeles, today, a bigger burden than a chartered team road trip from Columbus to Minneapolis was in 1935? I would guess it’s less.

    I still don’t like the part where I have to stand up in front of everyone and say, “Hi, I’m Zincfinger, and I’m a BKB.”

    Oklahoma Sooners (official thread)

    You become a unicorn when really intentional people like Bill Snyder, Bob Stoops, and Dabo Swinney throw their seed into you. Or a Brony.

    Name, Image, & Likeness (NIL) at tOSU

    The more important difference is that the NFL, MLB, the NBA, the NHL are the premier leagues, with the best players in the world performing at the highest level of competition. College football is not that, and only exists as a marketable phenomenon because of the special niche it enjoys...
