Game Thread CFP Semifinal: Ohio State vs. Clemson, Sat 12/31 @ 7p ET, ESPN

Guys, I don't think they are going to win this.

Nah, Clemson is in pretty good position right now. They'll pull it out

There was a Bowl loss to Bama and the Sam the Bam Rose Bowl that were bad in my youth. If I were 20 this would have killed me. Real life disappointments make College football games tame in comparison. Lol still it hurts.

Per State could end up being the only Big Ten team ranked in the top ten... Or there could be no Big Ten teams in the top ten. Conference just shit the sheets. Please God, don't let Western Michigan win.

Why bother at this point? I'm going down with the ship.

I am about to go back into my cave until the next season. This isn't just a sinking ship, its the fucking Lusitania.

 

[HorseshoeFetish]

Possibly the worstestererestiest.

WTF man!?! I love that on my steak.

It's hard to separate the 5 [Mark May]shows against SC teams, but the Air Force game is the single worst pile of [Mark May] bowl I have seen because they weren't trying

It's close call because in 2001 Outback Bowl against SC, they also went classless and took about a half dozen cheap shots. Based on the effort of the defense, I can't hate this one as much from that standpoint.

 

[SEREbuckeye]

Yeah, it seems that was the outlier, and this is closer to the real JT.

You mean that his maturation has suffered because of his incompetent coaching?

 

[alexhortdog95]

Speaks volumes when fans are leaving with almost 6:00 left in the game.
That will say more than anything going on down on the field.

His last year, Bill Callahan played Oklahoma State. Down 31-3 at the half, fans were booing and leaving.

At HALFTIME.

This one sucks. But it isn't surprising at all. In fact, this might be a blessing in disguise.

Here's to hoping a CERTAIN PORTION OF THE COACHING STAFF IS BEING REPLACED. I don't think I need to name any names.

 

[Drubuck]

Words elude me at the moment...so...

 

[Jake]

This might actually be good in the long run. We'll see.

This is not all JT. The damn receivers can't catch the damn ball.

very little of any part of this season is on jt really. how many downfield throws have been called in an actual game this year? go back and count em up. practice is great and all, but games aren't practice. if you don't use it you loose it. same goes with the receivers. if we aren't going to throw the ball to them during the season... why in gods name would we expect them to perform in a bowl game?

 

[scarletngray]

Definitely the worst performance in 50 years of watching OSU football. Outcoached, outplayed, and outperformed. Love our players and coaches but this was an embarrassment on the highest level.

 

[bigdog3300]

Baugh failing to find the desire to put a hat on someone...again. Receivers and TEs dont block on this team like they did in the past.

He's been that way all year but when we were winning I was told I was dogging on him.....newsflash, Baugh I don't think loves football. He's a heckuva talent but he gets 25% out of it as he should. He has no desire to block and has whiffed on more blocks than any TE I can remember.

 

[NFBuck]

Chip Kelly might be jobless come Monday. Just throwing that out there.
