@Penn State is the only game where I wouldn't be surprised if Ohio lost(not including us). They are likely to finish 10-2 at the worst, but they aren't even that good of a football team.
October 6th, 2012 at 11:46 PM ^
They're no Alabama, Oregon, or WVU. Although Ohio's D is somewhat better than WVU's.
October 6th, 2012 at 10:54 PM ^
Looks like our division should be decided during the stretch of Oct 20-Nov 3 when UM-MSU-UN-L play their round robin. Win both of those games and we are 2 up on one team and 3 up on the other while holding pretty much all of the tie breakers.

Denard will have a field day against Nebraska.

Their recruiting never took a turn because of nike. The kids want to play for a tea that uses different unis is a myth. They only want to go to a team that wins.

Oregon still has not won a NC under Chip Kelly.
October 6th, 2012 at 11:04 PM ^
Most of the points given up in the last 3 games was because of TO's by our Offense, this staff is doing a great job of teaching these young guys on our team. Just think how good our D will be with more experience, next year our D is gonna be lights out.
Really loved the way Rawls ran, I hope he gets more time, Fitz looks very average this year.I was very happy with the gameplan today, keep it simple Coach Al, don't ask Denard to be Tom Brady, ask him to be Denard.
October 6th, 2012 at 11:14 PM ^
once again our back 7 will be very good, but the Dline will be very young and inexperienced. So much the same next year.
I do give full marks to the D coaches, they obviously know how to coach guys up on dline
October 6th, 2012 at 11:22 PM ^
Pipkins will replace Campbell and Beyer will replace Roh. I don't see that much inexperience.
October 7th, 2012 at 12:08 AM ^
the depth will be very very young
October 6th, 2012 at 11:13 PM ^
When is the last time they could actually cal themselves the "Blackshirts?"
Surley not tonight, they look terrible on D.
October 6th, 2012 at 11:16 PM ^
Case in point: the Blackshirts haven't been awarded yet this season (for good reason).
October 6th, 2012 at 11:18 PM ^
Does GERG coach for Nebraska?
October 6th, 2012 at 11:23 PM ^
October 6th, 2012 at 11:30 PM ^
The handful of representatives that OSU sent to Lincoln last year was bad enough. That's the main reason I didn't try to get tickets and drive down to Columbus this year.

Hey y'all. Missed the game today, but wanted to catch the replay on BTN2go; I can't get it to let me log into my directv account through BTN. I can through directv's website, but when I login to the app it just keeps kicking me back out to select my provider. I just wanna watch me some damn footbaw after wandering aimlessly though parade homes a WHOLE WEEK past wife day and I can't get it to work. Someone help me.

LOL @ the Nessler saying ohio will be in the "top-10" tomorrow.
Maybe in the AP, which is a novelty poll. Doesn't do squat for you except put a pretty little number next to your name.
The coaches poll is what matters. It's 1/3 of the BCS. Why isn't ohio ranked in that poll, Brad?
October 6th, 2012 at 11:24 PM ^
NO B1G team deserves to be in the top 10. I'm honestly kind of pissed about how much love Neb and Ohio are getting. Shit, Neb gave up a school record to UCL-freaking-A on defense before kneel downs, and Ohio was LAST in the conference befere the MSU in total D (even behind UCL-freaking-A). Hell, they might be last again after this game. And because thier records are good they're automatically top 10?? Sometimes people piss me off and I don't think they are deserving of any relevent thought.
October 6th, 2012 at 11:27 PM ^
ohio may be wacking nebraska now, but Michigan did last year. And they actually played something called defense.
October 6th, 2012 at 11:18 PM ^
October 6th, 2012 at 11:19 PM ^
And by 'old school football' you mean completely unblocked into an RPS-3 play? Yes, that IS the best Ohio's defense they can do.
October 6th, 2012 at 11:25 PM ^
October 6th, 2012 at 11:26 PM ^
They can be a completely different team at home than on the road. But...yeah. That defense is a friggin' sieve.
October 6th, 2012 at 11:28 PM ^
No. Ohio has one of the worst D's in the conference. They remind me of Michigan 2010 except the B1G is worse if that is possible.
October 6th, 2012 at 11:46 PM ^
63 points...wow. Not good.
October 7th, 2012 at 12:11 AM ^
a punt return and INT return, Think a couple turnovers set up easy scores as well so not all can be slapped on the D but they weren't very good tonight.
October 6th, 2012 at 11:27 PM ^
Yes Mr. Commentator. Let's talk about John Simon's motor. And how it contributed to over 400 yards of offense, SO FAR IN ONLY HALF WAY THROUGH THE FOURTH QUARTER, and 30 something points. God, they would be losing this game if Neb even had a semblance of a defense.
October 6th, 2012 at 11:27 PM ^
NC State in the redzone down 6 with 90 seconds left on ESPN2
October 6th, 2012 at 11:33 PM ^
NC STATE TOUCHDOWN!!!! About to upset FSU!
October 6th, 2012 at 11:33 PM ^
And once again, the overrated FSU team goes down. Eat my shit, Phil Steele.
October 6th, 2012 at 11:35 PM ^
And Herbstreit. On multiple occasions.
I'm actually kind of looking forward to a Bama/ WVU championship now. Until WVU loses in the Backyard Brawl..
October 6th, 2012 at 11:43 PM ^
It's looking like this season is setting up to have more lamenting and gnashing of teeth at the end than ever before. A lot of teams a step below Bama with one and two losses out there. Oregon has the potential to lose one with Stanford and USC left and WVU is gonna have a tough road being unfamiliar with everyone on their schedule. Really we might as well just give the trophy to Bama now though. Nobody has even a fighting chance the way everyone has looked so far in comparison.
October 6th, 2012 at 11:44 PM ^
Oregon may have something to say about that. Washington doesn't look like they should be on the same field as Oregon.
October 6th, 2012 at 11:34 PM ^
Holy shit NC State. I love you right now. Don't fuck it up.
October 6th, 2012 at 11:34 PM ^
October 6th, 2012 at 11:38 PM ^
October 6th, 2012 at 11:35 PM ^
What do you think? This might be one game situation where the onside kick from the 50 isn't such a good idea.
October 6th, 2012 at 11:40 PM ^
Good God am I smarter than the CFB analysts and pundits. FSU to the MNCG this, easy ACC schedule that. I knew all along they'd mess it up. They might be a good team, overall, but damn did these idiots really think they'd go undefeated?? Overrated is the notion, once again, in Tallahassee.
Note: Glad I noticed I was on 666 posts for most of the evening...Where were you all at on that one!!?!
October 6th, 2012 at 11:41 PM ^
That's becaus everybody sucks. Literally everybody sucks (in 'pundint's terms') except for Alabama. People seem to forget 19-20 year olds tend to not be the most reliable people in the world.
October 6th, 2012 at 11:44 PM ^
Good point on most everyboyd always forgetting (subconsiously) that we're watching and entertaining ourselves with 18-22 year olds. It's just kind of funny, to me, when it seems the same programs seem to revel in underachieveing and getting hyped to always let down, and no one seems to notice the "pattern".
October 6th, 2012 at 11:40 PM ^
YES! YES! YES!!!!
Suck on that, Florida State.
October 6th, 2012 at 11:40 PM ^
October 6th, 2012 at 11:42 PM ^
They have a history of knocking off Florida State. Maybe they're too used to it to care.
October 6th, 2012 at 11:41 PM ^
Florida State gonna Florida State
