It's a bad matchup for Miami but that doesn't matter if the Canes' DL shows up again

Funny that ppl would take the points and burn money just because they let OSU live rent free in their head.

Texas was ranked #1 at the time. They are also ranked by the same people who rank the rest of the SEC teams. So, if that's the case, can ranking teams based on bias still be considered a good metric?

Arch was the biggest preseason Heisman favorite ever then didn't even get invited. They were overrated. Rankings suck. Texas sucks.

And that is stupid, and it's why we got a lot of blow outs in title games. Teams were fresh, but not in game shape.

OSU’s defense this year is putting up historic numbers. Miami barely scored 10 against us when ND and SC easily put up 30+ points against our scrubs on defense.

I genuinely do not see Miami scoring more than a touchdown. OSU’s defense is that good. Their offense is so and so but that defense is good enough to win them games when the offense is underperforming. Beck is too inconsistent and has had so many distractions at Miami (girls, city life, etc).

OSU's OL has thus far been fine against DLs who want to play them straight up. OSU has struggled a lot with stunts etc. from the smaller DLs like Wisky/indiana.

Definitely dont see it. Beck is garbage. A&M is not good. Especially on offense. They skated all season in the SEC and couldn't do shite against the last two teams they played. OSUs defense i better than A&M. Beck will make a ton of mistakes.

Or he could have one of his better games of the season. Veteran QB with those receivers having a good day isn't that far fetched.

Do you think the 30 mph wind gusts had anything to do with the low scoring in that game?

Didn't Texas also suck later in the year more? just skirted by some dogshit teams with essentially pure luck?
