I’m an OSU fan, I don’t get excited unless they win a national championship.

That is the attitude, not saying it is a bad one, that has taken us from the glory days of the New Years day bowls to the current play-off system where the bowls are less interesting exhibitions.

Historically, it will look like a great season, but we didn't beat a good team all season and lost to a terrible team. Michigan got destroyed by an average Florida team. Penn State lost to Kentucky. What is our best win? Washington? Northwestern?

If you can’t enjoy 13-1 where we beat Michigan, win conference and bowl game you must lead perfect lives....

Michigan didn’t have top two defenders and their RB....
So it is either national championship or a lost season? That is a little absurd...

When the preseason expectations are a nat’l championship, yeah it’s either title or bust.

BTW, your Massillon trolling negates anything serious you try to say on other threads.

Idk, for his career at Washington he is 923/1430 for 64.5%, 11,983 yards, 94 tds and 34 ints. His record as a starter is 39-15. I'm not saying he's the best ever but i'm not sure "so so bad" is really accurate either.

Obviously I would have preferred a national title but I feel pretty good about this season.

I know, how silly of me not to get excited that our preseason top 5 team didn’t even make it to the playoffs. I love irrelevant bowl wins over Washington. Great season guyz.
1st Team All-PWN
So, where do you all place Urban all time?
Edit: All time for OSU and all time in college fb history.

Urban made better what Tressel built. 1A and 1B. Woody is #2
In ROY I Trust!!
Urban is hands down #1 for me in OSU history.
All time? Probably 2nd or 3rd. Although, his winning percentage makes a strong case for 1st.

I was going to say he should be #1 for OSU, but I have a feeling some will still say Woody. I also was going to say he is in the top 5 all time without even looking at all of the coaches. I don't think he has a strong case for #1. He is not topping Saban.
Senior Member
For me, it's really hard to compare Woody to Urban.
Woody had 5 national titles and 13 big ten titles. That's hard to top but it was also a different era when they voted on national titles.
I am a huge fan of Tressel but I do think Urban surpassed him. Although 2002 and undefeated was pretty special. I'm not sure the 2006 title loss to Florida doesn't make me rate Urban a little higher. Not sure if that's fair or not.
So for me
1. Woody
2. Urban
3. Tressel
Nationally, I would then include all the other success in Urban's career but I would have to think about it more because I'm not sure about other coaches historically. I do think sadly that I would have to begrudgingly rate Saban's success at Alabama and LSU over Urban's.

We were #5 preseason, so expectations were met as we barely missed out on playoff. How is it that #5 team would be championship or bust. I would have said coming into the year that only Clemson and Alabama should have felt that way.
OSU had a new QB, lost #1 pick in the draft at the third game with a weak LB core and an inexperienced DB group.
If if you want to be disappointed about a season where we should have expected a N.C. that would be 2015, not 2018.

Saban will finish his career with #1 distinction I think. Interested to see if Dabo can keep this up...I guess as long as the ACC remains weak he will have a pretty high win %

While 1961 can be debated, I personally hate tOSU claim of the 1970 title, which was from a poll awarded prior to the bowl games.
