Watching media day....kinda interesting

As for the 20 hr of contact for Oregon and not for OSU, Urban said he told his coaches to stay under and they are well under. He wants his players peaking and ready on Monday night.

Cardale said he blocked every contact in his phone except for OSU coaches and his mom.....he's focused and ready

Tebow said he stayed over and watched 7 hours of film after everyone else left practice

I don't think Mariota is a fraud he reminds me of Russel Wilson. As for the rest of their team I'm not sold. Their defense was 9th against the run in their own conference. With EZE coming at them their in trouble. Go Bucks Believe

Difference is, Wilson had to read defenses in college, Mariota doesn't. Mariota is one read, then make something happen with his legs.

If not familiar with Tiernan, imagine an elderly guy who lives for: (1) e-trolling; (2) constantly pointing out and bragging about every single thing he was even borderline correct about, apparently under the expectation he's getting some sort of award if he reminds everyone enough times and (3) presenting himself as a racist, prejudiced asshole.

In other words, imagine Sleeper if he was about 40 years older.

Surprised at how many Oregon fans are here. Haven't heard much about how their fans travel but they definitely have a good presence here.

Ohio State fans are crazy though. There are hundreds of thousands people here sporting osu gear all over Dallas. It's insane how well our fans travel.

I agree with you about the Oregon fans. Every place I've been so far it feels close to even with a slight lead to Ohio State, but they have a lot. Still expecting 60-40 OSU tomorrow though.

Mariota's head coach from St Louis high school in hawaii even mentioned this. He was saying his transition to the nfl will be hard because he has never read a defense. And up through last year wasn't allowed to audible on his own. But osu is using basically the same offensive scheme with looking to the sideline for the calls and audibles.

I actually think Mariota will end up being a pretty good NFL QB, but it will take time. He seems like a smart guy that will work his ass off to get better. I can see him as a better version of Cam Newton.

If anyone on the planet could guarantee the ability to read whether a QB was going to be good in the NFL they would be worth a billion dollars. In the history of football not one person can call it every time

Which is 100% what his Hs cosch was saying. He's going to be damn good but it may take a little time.

Mariota is about to be exposed tonight. He will drop from the #1 overall pick to a bottom feeder in the 7th round much like T.Smith after the Florida loss. I don't know if it will be bad enough that Mariota will hand his Heisman over to Cardale but it will be close.

How about the Buckeyes knock Mariota and their second stringer out of the game to level the playing field?

Best of luck to the true and loyal OSU fans. I can respect a true love for a team regardless of my own personal opinion. Both teams got here and earned every bit of it.
