Game Thread 2017 Cotton Bowl: OSU vs. USC - 12/29/17 @ 8:30 ET (ESPN)

[Buckeye86]

May this be 2005 to next year’s 2006, with a different ending, obviously.

Quick recap of the season:

• 12 wins (the fifth time in Meyer's six seasons)
• Pounded Sparty
• Epic comeback win against the Pedsters
• Beat scUM at the Pig House
• Won the East Division outright
• Won the conference
• Won a major bowl in dominating fashion
• Beat the shit out of USC
• Likely top-5 finish
• Multiple All Americans
• Rimington Award winner

For a "disappointing season", that ain't too fucking shabby...

B1G bowl record (so far) = 5-0

SEC bowl record (so far) = 0-3

B 1 G! B 1 G! B 1 G!

Definitely going to hear that reverberate around Rutger's half filled stadium next year.

Agreed. I've seen this graphic before. Do not understand it.

pretty how much it has worked is that each program started the season by claiming the closest counties. beat another team and take their counties.

Ohio State beat USC for the first time in 42 fucking years!

What am I doing after nine beers? Busting out the whiskey! (Apologize in advance.)

 

[Dryden]

Here's hoping the B1G goes 7-1!

Agreed. I've seen this graphic before. Do not understand it. But it is from Reddit, and they drink a lot.

I feel like things like the imperialism map are more a product of redditors wanting to productive-but-not-too-productive in between 'bate sessions than drinking.

Just so satisfying to end it this way. I really think because most of us admit we shouldn't have been in the playoffs we can truly enjoy the ending to what was a great season.

Sure it didn't go 100% to plan but that's life. I'll miss JT and I really hope he can find a role in the NFL to make some money for a few years.

Fuck you dumbfuck Texas bible thumper reporter asking JT about god's role in his football career and winding up in Ohio instead of Texas. Great answer and recruiting pitch by JT though.

I would but that would mean the SEC gets a win. I’d kinda like to see them go o-for even if it means scum beats coach blood.

Actually, you and I are both wrong. It's actually 3 days short of 44 years (Jan 1, 1974) since we had beaten USC
