Game Thread tOSU @ Illinois, Sat 11/14 @ 12pm ET, ABC

how can you say "likely losing in the semis" when you don't know who the matchup will be?
If they play like they have in 70% of the games this year, we wouldn't beat a top 10 team. If we play to our potential it will be fun. Hopefully they are just playing down to the competition, but right now the offense looks damn well incompetent, like more incompetent than Bama's.
I'm sure there were FSU fans last year saying similar things.

I have only seen us play like we're 'supposed to' against maryland, rutgers and penn state. If we play like we're supposed to we'll be seeing two of those goofy looking trophys in the case next year. If we play like we did in 7/10 of the games this year, we'll get beat up pretty bad by any of the other 3 playoff teams.

Unless one of them is Notre Dame. We apefuck Notre Dame.

Well, there will be more comments about not impressing. They might well drop to fourth place or even out of the CFP top 4 (which I doubt).

I need to say this for reasons other posters here will understand, given last year.

I will be very surprised if they get into the NC game.

Perhaps, but in all reality we really didn't hit our stride until the BIG Championship game last year. There is still time for this team to gel before the playoffs. Here's hoping!

OSU can apefuck a lot of teams

I get people being more aware of the OSU weaknesses here but it seems like they never acknowledge how completely vulnerable all the other teams are.

OSU has the most talent, the most depth of talent, best coaching and the experience of last years run. They are odds on favorite to win it all for those reasons.

Buckeyes don't have as good a chance as anyone, they have a better chance.

...but to this point, we apparently can't drop in BM at will and make magic happen? we are nearly at the intervention point.."i am braxton miller and i can't get the ball in space". he HAS to be wondering at this point if the right people on staff are crafting the right plays....

Every game from here on out is a statement game for OSU. At this point, winning will be enough. OSU shouldn't have to curb stomp anyone. Every victory from here on out is a quality win.
