Dude, is that Virginia Tech
game supposed to hold me for 5 weeks?

Y'all have slept walked through 3 games minimum.

#1 teams get one maybe two, but y'all are pushing the limit

I literally just said to drop them, but saying they aren't top ten is pushing it. Do you think LSU should be in the top ten? What about Bama? A&M?

Welcome to Bama's world, Ohio State. You have every team on your schedule circling your name on the calendar and treating your game like it's the national championship. Bama's had to deal with this for the last five years. Now it's Ohio State's turn.


This is the best post in this thread. This is so true on so many levels. Well said, sir.

Give me one game. One point where you could say, tOSU does it better than any team in the nation.

Then whatever you come up with I'll point out at least 10 other teams that do it better.

That's how in can justify saying OSU may not be a top ten team.

I have a better leg to stand on than you do. That's for sure.

That Wisconsin win won't look that impressive at season's end. There's a decent chance they end up a 4 loss team.




Pretty much every team on your schedule will be a 4 loss team.

That's not how this works. Ohio State is currently a top ten team. You're making the argument that they shouldn't be. You show me why, and ten other teams that should be ahead of them with a case for each team that clearly puts them over Ohio State. You have nothing to stand on yet, but nice try.

They remind me of the 2009 Florida team Meyer had after Mullen left for Mississippi st.

Winning but not looking good in doing so.

Turnovers. They're lucky they have the talent because 3-4 turnovers a game is a recipe for disaster. Take care of the ball and the blowouts will follow.

Jalin has as much talent as anybody but is so careless with the ball. I say bench him until he figures out that it's inexcusable.

Jalin was one of the main reasons we won vs Alabama. He converted a TON of 3rd down and long conversions in that game.

That being said, our 3rd down conversion yesterday and this whole season has been pretty attrocious.

It's one of the reasons why Urban picked Cardale over JT. He has shown a knack for picking up 3rd downs with both his legs and his arm.

I don't think there would be a significant drop off using Samuel and Braxton. The turnovers have to stop,that far outweighs a 3rd down conversion.

He can pick up all the third downs he wants. When he turns the ball over inside the five yard line, or worse in our end of the field, he needs to sit.

Cardale can also pick up all the third downs he wants, but his inaccuracy, poor reads, and inability to run the zone read are killing our offense. I like Cardale, but that doesn't mean he should be our starting quarterback.

My point was that he's had this problem before, and overcame it.

He almost lost us a game last year, then responded with 4 TDs the next week. He will get it figured out.

So what you're saying is it's a given OSU should be top ten and I have to prove they aren't?

You got a lot of participation trophies as a kid didn't you?

Here's some basic evidence. OSU's offense looked like something a dog hacked up and there are plenty of other teams (including 1 loss teams) that have impressed me enough to put them ahead of OSU.

I said exactly what I said. They are currently #1, maybe not for long. If you think there are ten other teams better than them that should be ranked higher, prove it. I don't have to prove they aren't a top ten team, because they already are.

If you want to offer up anything to debate, I'm all for it, but you haven't come close yet.

I won the NBC championship in eighth grade.

That's not evidence. That's your opinion. I'm glad those other teams have impressed you so much, but you haven't offered anything to give your point a shred of validity. If your opinion is all you can offer that's fine, but it's not worth anything.

around 18th. They are about the worst #1 I've seen in many a year.
