Not the most impressive 2-plus quarters for Ohio State with how Howard looks like Inferior McCord and the line is shaky on run blocking.

Pitt is not good. Defense is bad. Undisciplined. I’ll rank them 58th….I might be being a homer 


UC and WVU will beat them by double digits

Buckeyes are fine.  Lots of new faces to click.  Howard has better field sense than McCord.  But three of these weak opponents in a row is a huge failure of scheduling as they’ll never be forced to step up.

I didnt realize how pointless OSU’s OOC schedule was. Akron, Western Michigan, and Marshall. Can I bet on them beating them by combined 150 points?

Not to nitpick on OSU, I glanced at Ole Miss’s schedule as I saw they were up 70. They play Middle Tennessee and and Georgia Southern. How intense of them!

A crap slate of games today….everyone playing teams in the same league as the #15 seeds in NCAA Basketball Tournament

Thank the Big Ten. They were scheduled to play Washington this year and next, but had to drop it thanks to conference realignment. So, we got cupcakes to fill in. 

1st half was fine, 2nd was better. The oline getting no push is a real concern. 

Then again, Oregon looked terrible last night agsinst Idaho and even Michigan struggled against Fresno.

Miami looked great yesterday along with Georgia too.

I am glad Clemson got smashed.

What’s the story?


The one coach who office was raided last year was using his office computer to hack into the cloud and Michigan and was stealing photos of students. While looking at his laptop the spying stuff was found. Michigan hired two firms one to investigate the cloud hacking and another the spying stuff. Michigan knowing this did not report themselves to the Big or NCAA. 


A third investigation firm also started investigating. They found multiple members of the staff accessed the spying files. The files also included footage from inside the Woody Hayes Athletic center and teams playbooks. All of this is supposedly in the NOA Michigan has received. Also boosters are pissed off. 


There a lot more but this is a summary

Wow.  


Knowing the teeth of the NCAA, I expect this will go away like a fart in the wind.  Moore will sit out the first half of a Little Sisters of the Poor-type game.


Booger Eater Jim was a crooked bastard.

LSU coming out of the two minute warning needing a TD to take the lead:

2nd down QB throws a pass intended for the RB five yards away into the ground.

3rd down illegal shift penalty which is declined because pass is incomplete anyways. 

Then the defense takes off the final drive and they lose.

#13 LSU loses at #23 by 7 points 

LSU moves up to #11 this week

Florida St gets smoked by Boston College

Disastrous start

No matter what school he's at, D.J. Whatever looks like a second-tier guy who isn't going to lead anyone anywhere.

Brutal game. 

I thought DJ might get benched but the tight end had a couple of drops that killed their drives. Seems like the offensive line was constantly getting pushed back into his lap. 

Re: the offensive lineman who pushed the player (who flopped) on the 4th and 5 and turned it into 4th and 20….you can’t kick him off the team, but whatever is below that is fair game.

Maybe he two hottest seats so far this year are in the state of Florida.  The only people that hated FSU losing to BC was the Georgia Tech fanbase.

Got a weird feeling that OSU is winning it all. 



Even after the slow start against the Zips. Still holding on to this. 

They are so goddamn loaded. I love NIL!!

Connor Stalions Netflix show seems kind of pathetic.  While I admire the guy’s lifelong dedication to UM football, it seems shallow and sad.  The guy went to the USNA for fuck’s sake.  So many amazing opportunities in the other side of that, and he found himself sucking ass to get a scoundrel job just so he could be “part of it” at UM.


The fact that he still feels loyalty toward UM after they completely threw him under the bus and made him the fall guy for an obvious scheme Booger Eatin’ Jim authorized is really sad.
