They remind me of the bengals under Marvin Lewis. Can’t win the big games, can’t beat their better division rivals (OSU is Pittsburgh, Michigan is Baltimore, or however you want to do it) 


I vividly recall the vibe when Cooper was at Ohio State.  You would just wake up on the mornings of Michigan games or bowl games (for the most part) and just KNOW they’d lose.  Franklin has that same deer-in-the-headlights look Cooper used to have on the sidelines.

I don’t put much credence in rankings at this stage of the season. But on principle, I’m glad to see Ohio State ahead of UGA.  The first round bye will make a rematch against Oregon very critical.


Go Bucks!

Good win as predicted vs Purdue.  Hope IU continues to hammer Michigan.

I U’s first 10-win season is pretty cool.  That game in Bloomington in two weeks is going to be big.

QB threw a pretty bad INT to end it. Too bad because they were making good ground and had plenty of time.

How much were tickets if you don’t mind me asking? Or do you get a hookup through your son?

I can get all the free ones I want but last couple has had us up high and we spent $35 each for really good seats….but I could get 10 free tickets to watch Clemson next week if I let my son know by Tuesday 


Game was trash. I knew they were pretenders from game 1 but Jesus Christ they take the ball first every game and never do a thing with it. 4 false starts in first 9 plays. Every first down they go hurry up and hand off to same back every time and it literally hasn’t worked since week 2.

Driving down to a 2 score lead in the 3rd qtr and a dirty shot on the Qzb knocked him out of the game and lost top 2 receivers. Then play calling was balls….then refs called holding 30 yards from the play and on a crucial 4th down stop, refs said they weren’t ready. Jesus Christ it couldn’t have been more irritating.


Oh well…hopefully my kid enjoys the Military Bowl or the Fenway Bowl

That’s pretty cool. I need to steer my son that way apparently. He’s six but I’m still buying him a fucking tuba on Monday.

Yeah…it real cool all he’s gotten to do. He’s the trombone section leader and there are 30 trombones. He knows most of the 300 member band snd each band kid get 1 free ticket for every home game. First 5-6 games we were in great seats for some big games.

Not sure if I’m going next week Vs Clemson or not. But pregame stuff is awesome

Next week is final home game? They’re at Louisville week after which wouldn’t be an impossible drive. Then at Boston College the final week. Might as well go if so. And Clemson would be a fun watch.

Band only travels to 1 road game and if they make a bowl.

If QB and top 2 WR plate out they’ll lose out. Depth isn’t good. Had a Great opportunity this year but maybe a bit unlucky and squandered 

Will likely go to Louisville for women’s volleyball final 4 as he get to travel with them as well. They have been #1 team last 9 weeks.

I didn’t know that.  Don’t know why I assumed the other.  Well, that is excellent.

Bleh…ridiculous

Pitt’s coach doesn’t have control

3 consecutive defensive offsides on 3rd 21

4 false starts last week in 7 plays

3 delay of game penalties and back to back ones coming out of a timeout 

Had ball late in 1st half and snapped ball with 29 seconds left and allowed Clemson a long FG, which was pivotal 

3rd and goal from the 1 and they settled for a 40 yard FG

Pitt should’ve easily won that game. Virginia fucked them last week with a dirty shot to the QB and he’s still out. Pitt isn’t that good but should damn well be 9-1, but oh well. Was a fun atmosphere and I get to see my kid.

I feel for you.  Pitt gave that away.  The disorganization on that offense was criminal.  To have friggin’ Dabo on the ropes and let him and that jerkoff quarterback of his get away with a win - oh man. 


Pitt is just barely on the wrong side of being a really good team.
