Okay watching game day i officially feel USC narrative vibes for this one. 

 

Ohio state is all of a sudden this unstoppable juggernaut with gods at every skill position. 

 

Michigan loss was good for them bc they came together and got really good bc of the loss.

 

Shoot me lol.   I hope we punch them in their couch burning mouths.

Well Corso is 1 for 1 in semifinal picks and we all know who he’s picking tomorrow.

I'm not worried

Those posers almost lost to Fresno

Ironically it was some long play against Fresno that they kept pumping for Reggie Bush to win the heisman.  I kept thinking what about those 100 bad ass plays Vince threw down on the highlight reel vs better teams.

This is how we know we are both old. Somewhat old. Actually, we’re not old.

Nope, you're not old.

If you were old, you'd remember that (after beating the shit outta the Suckeyes) curbstomping neuter-dumb for the MNC will be PAYBACK for 1977.

Hook'Em Horns!

Since you seem to want to make it personal, here's an unveiled opinion.  You're a fucking douchebag who gets his panties in a bunch whenever someone points out deficiencies or is critical of obvious flaws and you do your snarky little passive-aggressive routine from behind the safety of your keyboard.  If you don't like what I have to say, then fuck off and ignore it.

 

Annndddd you lost

SC’s shitty defense kept allowing Fresno to score, which meant Reggie got to return KO’s all night to pad his all-purpose yardage total. I think it was around 500 but half of it was on KO returns. It was that performance that Bohls specifically pointed to for why he voted for Bush over VY for Heisman.

That’s literally the only play you see when they talk about that usc team or Reggie Bush as a college player. Running down the sideline on a kick return and stopping with some shitty ball security.

Damn straight! I was at that game and winning the NC against the Domers would go a long towards redemption for that loss. But we have business to take care of first……..

Things that havent been fixed that will lead us to losing today:

 

1) We pass on 1st down like 80% of the time. We run the ball on 2nd down 68% of the time. Sark is too predictable and the osu D will tee off on Ewers. I expect ewers to get sacked 4-5 times and throw 1-2 ints

2) Sarks abandoning of the run game. Everyone knows we aint running it 35 times.

3) OSU has to be licking their chops for Guilbeau and Muhammed. Look for them to get burned deep at least once each this game

4) Special teams. Auburn is mind fucked. We dont need to be attempting anything longer than 30 yards. Bolden still doesnt know when to not fair catch the ball. 

5) Consistency. We have zero from game to game

I feel better with the one day delay and Texas being able to see the game last night

I believe a lot of college sports is "mental" and when your mind is in the right place you can overcome a lot

I think there was a narrative that penn state (and Ohio State) were pretty much unstoppable, but ND made penn state look pretty bad overall and I think Texas knows ND is beatable

I think Texas will be set up a lot more with the mindset like they went into Michigan with earlier in the year vs. the mindset they have shown in the last few games

The key play I remember was Reggie sitting on the bench on 4th down when we stopped Lendale White to get the ball back and win the championship.  VY is the best college football player I’ve ever seen.  It still baffles me that Bush was even in the running for the Heisman.

Fuck all that - don’t be a pussy!  Texas will find a way to win tonight and you’ll have to eat a big plate of crow.  It’s not as bad if you put some BBQ sauce on it.

A ha!  See, predictable!  Roughly half the time he passes and half the time he runs on both first and second downs!

Those are also numbers, just like 80% and 68%.  Check mate

Thought I had posted this -- today I learned that when Colt hit Quan to beat tOSU in the 2009 Fiesta Bowl, the LB Quan ran away from was current ND head coach Marcus Freeman:

The craziest part is how this game seems like it just happened the other day.

I don't have the numbers, but I am pretty sure when we have a first down play that doesn't gain any yards or loses yards (whether it was a run or a pass), Sark calls a run when it's second and long like 99% of the time.  This usually leads to third and long so not a fan of running on second and 10 or second 14.

I think that just means we’re supposed to kick everyone’s ass this year.

Bush could outrun inferior athletes to the corner and get big yards like a HS RB. He got stuffed repeatedly or pushed out for short gains when facing better athletes. VY could run or pass against anybody.

That play was glorious. Man, who’s the dipshit that thought it was a good idea to leave Reggie on the sideline for that play? What an idiot!
