Even the Ohio State beat is weirdly hesitant to address it directly for the most part.

It does coincide with UM playing the two best teams they have all season, but the contrast is stark.

They also say things like “UM was able to move the ball with chunk plays last year and they’ll need to do that again” while not addressing at all that knowing pre-snap when to take the deep shot against zero coverage was potentially the biggest factor in the ability to hit those chunk plays.

I'm sure Vegas does not want any public/media talk about in-game cheating and the legitimacy of results even if they're furious about it behind closed doors.

An interesting piece of this…

Why are they “falling off a cliff” in stages?
Why wasn’t the cliff steeper?

The answer is something that I call the Doubt Snowball. I don’t know what you call it, but it’s such a common part of the human psychological experience that you already know what I’m talking about, even if you don’t have a name for it.

Part of any contest is about how good each team is; part is about the confidence each team has. Versus MSU, TCUN were much better and were more confident. Versus PSU, they were a little better at some positions, but not all. As for confidence, PSU in general and Allar in particular had their confidence Chewed up and spit out by the Buckeyes just two weeks earlier, and that certainly affected the game. BUT… PSU was still good enough to make some plays here and there against TCUN. Some cracks started to show in the CUNTS’ confidence. Then they went to Maryland, and while the Terps made enough mistakes to give the game away, they also made enough plays that the cracks in the CUNTS’ confidence began to widen.

Fast forward to Saturday, they’ll be playing the first game against superior talent since their crib sheets were effectively confiscated. The Buckeyes will make plays. The doubt that was a pebble vs PSU and gained momentum vs Maryland will start to snowball as it rolls downhill.

The Doubt Snowball has decided battles throughout history.

TCUN is a kid walking into a final exam shortly after having his crib sheet confiscated

Buckeyes by 3 Touchdowns

Seriously


Just so as to ensure that outcome: The Buckeyes have no chance at all this week, there’s no way they win

Against MSU there was also no time for Sparty to change signs, which is why the fucks at the league office gave them the unprecedented option to not roll on that shabbas. And even though Stalions was done, he certainly could.have coached up other coaches on Sparty's signs and given them the laminates.

I think it's more the game is in doubt. No one wants to crow about cheating and then have the game end up the same way as the last few years. When the game is over I expect there will suddenly be a lot looser lips

Need a solid victory to put to rest the notion that their two wins were legit.

Also need to send Simple Jim away a loser because there's no way he's coming back even if the NFL doesn't want him again. There's no way that his gigantic ego can tolerate being suspended all next year and have to sit at some press conference with his 1000 yard stare of stupid, mouth breathing like some asthmatic that just climbed a mountain and have to listen while they strip him of three years of wins and basically say his great success the last three years was a fraud and a crime.
