Based on what metric? Regular season in 2002 was 13-0. So if you're going straight record, then 2002 wins that. Of course, margin of victory and other stress factors were higher in 2002. If you're using margin of victory, I doubt 2002 wins it.

I don't follow the NHL. I guess I don't know anything about the trapezoid. You've got a point about golf. "Keep your own score, but if it's wrong, we're going to penalize you." So if you get penalized and didn't realize it, you turn in the wrong score and get penalized, again. I still say the...

I read a bunch of posts that said they'd be in position to win this year, if their running backs weren't all hurt. Next year, they'll be right up there, probably above Ohio State. I mean, according to them, Underwood didn't see the wide-open receivers. Get him another year of experience and a...

Not that it answers your question, but I'd guess that they had a spot in a museum set up for that one, until Ohio State won that game.

I agree with everything except what I bolded. I don't think the cheating is over. They are now guilty until proven innocent, in my court. They may not be balls deep in the next cheating scheme. But they have a crew working on what it should be.

Ha. Good question. Maybe the nerd who fumbled it can advance it?

No chance it's real. They'd never admit that Ohio State is better. They'd never admit that the player headbutted a ref. No contact was made, in their eyes. They'd say that no flag was planted because they prevented it. There was no cheating, in their view. To them, their team was hosed by...

1. Once it's a touchdown, the play is over. That's why you can pull the ball back and it's still a touchdown. So, I guess in that aspect, the goal line is different from any other line on the field. The play isn't over if you reach over the 43. The play isn't over if you reach over the line to...

You have a fair point and I don't have an answer. You think you're going to be all awesome by scheduling a team that lost in the semifinals last year: Penn State. You shouldn't be "punished" because your "strong" team finished 6-6. So, how do you incentivize a team to schedule Texas, or...

Aw hell. I don't want to defend them. But no one won in 2020. We all know what should have happened. We all know what did happen. But we didn't win. So the previous time Ohio State won was 2019. It's a loophole that makes them sound awesome, and they're technically correct. And it's the number...

You're not wrong, but I know that Akron, Kent State, and Toledo are never going to be a threat to a Buckeye team that deserves to be in the playoffs. Schedule teams like that and lose 2 or fewer games every year. Or, in the case of Notre Dame losing to Northern Illinois, you better not lose any...

If the cheaters hadn't scheduled Oklahoma, and played Ann Arbor High School, instead (let's assume they beat the high school kids), they'd have 2 losses. Would they get a playoff spot? I'm certainly not saying that Texas and the cheaters belong in the playoff. More that there needs to be some...

Remember when the sign-stealing thing was relatively new to the news, and the cheaters had some undergrad nerds, or grad assistants, or someone watching the camera that flies over the field? And they'd hold up signs to block it from seeing what was going on in the huddles during timeouts? That's...

This play has me worked up. This reminds me of instant replay in baseball. Well, in all sports, but baseball, especially. And I'm not really a baseball fan. Not really. But before instant replay, there was no whining about a runner stealing second, and then... did his hand slide off the base a...

So, my point is that it is a stupid rule. I'm not talking about specifics. I don't care if Ohio State, or the Browns, or anyone else I might be rooting for, benefits from it 100 times and never, ever gets boned by it. It is a stupid rule. I've never heard anyone say one reason why it should be a...

Feel free to merge this somewhere. But we all know the rule I’m talking about. Why is this rule a thing? Fumble out of bounds anywhere else and it goes back to the spot of the fumble. Anywhere else. Fix the rule.

Exactly my thought. Maybe last year will be the beginning of the best 5-year stretch, but time will tell. Also, I don't know much about 1955 or 1956, but national championships in 1954 and 1957 mean that that period should be in the discussion.

I'm not even going to entertain your idea. Give all the Heismans to Buckeyes.

Meh. Open them the second the national championship game ends and keep them open for 72 hours. Award the Heisman right then and there. Nothing against Mariota in 2014, but give Zeke his Heisman.

I grew up just north of Columbus. Just on the inside of I-270. Most of our teachers went to Ohio State, and the entire school would have a "beat *ichigan" party the day before. (Back then, The Game was before Thanksgiving.) This is mid- to late-80's - before Cooper. Anyway, there were always...
