I do not think Oregon was garbage.
Stroud still sucks. I wish that they would at least give someone else a series.

Boogie says you’re not allowed to complain about the shit show you see on the field.

That targeting call on Auburn is the worst I’ve ever seen
Penn State ends up scoring on a play the Auburn tackler was so worried about getting a targeting call, that he tried to arm tackle at the one yard line, and of course he failed to stop the ball carrier's momentum and he scored the near clinching TD!

No - not true. I just don’t like listening to keyboard warriors calling player “trash” when they don’t perform as a particular warrior likes. People call out bad play all the time, fine by me.
If you and Superman had your feelings hurt, I apologize.

Just put that moron on ignore. Makes the board so much better.

Last night was the perfect time to put in the mullet too see if he could move the offense.
Maybe I'm reading into things, but the empty seats at Ohio Stadium were sure telling. I was born in Columbus in 1970 and have attended numerous games, and I don't remember ever seeing attendance this low (obviously last year doesn't count). These universities can expect a lot more of this if they keep jacking up ticket prices for games no one gives two shits about. Serves them right. I love college football, but honest to God the schools are their own worst enemies. Their greed for everything is probably going to lead to an NFL-lite looking concept in another 10 years. Well OSU athletic department wisemen, pick out a sweet list of techno songs to blast out during breaks in next week's excuse for drinking - I mean Akron - game.

I love college football, but there are just too many bad games. With conferences getting so large, you are guaranteed to have several weak conference opponents. They never seem to schedule more than one quality non-conference opponent any longer. I'll still watch, but a month of playing Tulsa, Akron, Rutgers, and Maryland doesn't excite me.

Agreed. And there is no way I'd pay $500 for a family of four to attend a game like those. They using an NFLesque approach to pricing normal people out. Damn shame.

What’s sad is a family of four coulda went to the Tulsa game for just over $150 if they bought tickets from Stubhub the day of the game. Tickets were as low as $20-30.
I’m pretty sure they didn’t sell out the Oregon game either with the lowest face value to the public being $160

For the Oregon game, Buckeye Sports Bulletin all but said in one of the editorials that they were convinced OSU fudged the attendance numbers because they didn't want any "big game, but still less than 100K in the stands" news coming out. When the homer "for the fans" publication is saying that, it REALLY gives the impression that the number in the stands and the released attendance figures were not the same.
Likely the reason why the state health department announced last week that outdoor events didnt spread the covid
Still not great… but OK vs Akron
Go read the comments from the amateur QB coaches and defensive coordinators on 11 Warriors. Took until 5 minutes in for them to call for Day’s job.
So Which QB does everyone prefer? I think Miller might throw the nicest ball of the 3.
K'veon Pope apparently quit in the middle of the game. Crazy.
