tOSU vs Missouri, Goodyear Cotton Bowl, Friday Dec. 29, 8 ET on ESPN

I’ve always found a direct correlation to my give a fuck factor for OSU Bowl games and the result of the last game played before it.

2011 I didn’t even watch the Gator Bowl.

2004 I enjoyed the shit out of the Alamo Bowl.
This. The Game sets the tone for the bowl game and the off-season for me. I'll watch this game because it's another game, but I'm not overly invested in it. Season was already ruined and this is about as "meh" an opponent as they could give us.

Wow. I think it's time to just step away from here for a while. This place is really starting to sound like a bunch of spoiled, entitled bandwagon fans
Did the season go like wanted? Nope. Do some changes need to be made? Without a doubt. But I remember before the season began, people both here and in the media were predicting 2-3 losses. The Bucks lost 1. Yep, it was to TCUN and that really sucks and we can point to many reasons why it happened. But all the negativity and vitriol towards staff and in some cases players is out of hand. I've followed the Bucks for over 60 years and never believed in the "Natty or Bust" mentality because almost every year you find yourself disappointed. I'll support my team regardless of where or who they play. I won't whine or complain about it. Then I'll hope neede change takes place and we see improvement next year. There is far too much negativity in the real world, I don't want to constantly read it here in a place that is something of an escape from that world.
Haven’t given less of a fuck about a bowl game since the gator in 2011 or Alamo in 2004 I think.
Those that choose to feel that way, that's your choice. The rest of us will enjoy having the opportunity to watch our Buckeyes one last time before the way too long off season and next September.
Sheesh, this place is starting to sound like Bucknuts.
 
When was the last time Ohio State played in a pointless game?

You could say Utah Rose Bowl, but the Rose Bowl is never pointless. Against USC - but that was Rose Bowl too.

I won't lie. I probably won't make the slightest effort to watch this game.
There are between 12 and 15 Ohio State football games a year. I'll enjoy each and every one of them. Would like to be somewhere else, but I'll find meaningful things to watch in this game.

Yep. The scarcity of opportunities to watch our Bucks play ball is a scarcity. 15 games is 900 minutes of game time out of 529,920 minutes in a year.

It’s not a matter of fact but rather opinion, but go off.
Nobody is "going off". It's just another example of how spoiled and entitled a lot of this fanbase has become. I've been a Buckeye fan for well over 60 years. I've followed them thru good times and bad and always will. If people want to pout, that's their choice, but as for me, and I'm sure many others here, we will watch the game, cheer on our team and enjoy getting to watch the Buckeyes one last time before the way too long off season and next September.
