Don't be winey LSU had every chance and opportunity to buy players and contend, we bought b level talent and got b level results.

It isn’t the same. Burrow got far better coaching under Meyer and Day than Howard ever got at K State

He learned how to lead at OSU as well and said as much while at LSU and in the NFL

I'm not saying Burrow didn't get better coaching at OSU than Howard did at K State. I was just saying it's not really a similar situation at all other like you were insinuating other than the fact that they both were transfers. I'n not hating on OSU's title, I would love for LSU to win another even in the wild west era, but the guy you responded to made a perfectly reasonable point of why he doesn't care for college football as much anymore and this years OSU team is a prime example of that.

Nothing like it is currently. Hundred dollar handshakes and some Dodge Chargers are peanuts compared to what’s going on now. If anything, keeping it under the table regulated it.


Ha, interesting way to rationalize it. The cheating likely didn't help but you just kept doing it for years. Makes sense.

They bought them for next year, lol. If nothing else we are all in for next season. We will see how it turns out, but the starters will be improved in most areas.

What a beautiful tapestry of delusion and convolution the OP weaves.

And it’s evident he truly believes what he types. This line of thinking guides him daily thru life.

Unreal.

Emphatic upvote.

Not fair all these teams get to just buy these players from other teams to win championships. Feels good atleast knowing 2019 we were the best team of all time and last LEGIT team to win it all the right way. Cfb has never been the same so its nice knowing we ended the real era of cfb as the best of all time!!




OSU spent the overwhelming majority of nil retaining players. lots of teams spent way more on the portal. any team with a top-shelf roster is going to have to spend to keep it together.

They were buying players in 2019 just like other SEC and Big 10 programs. Just not wide out in the open like shite is today.

I’m sorry we’re transparent with our money! Maybe LSU can put the most and see how it works out for them. Never know what you’ll get.

I guess Ohio State has been hanging their hat and watching highlights of 2014 until last night.

I don't think Ohio State fans have been non-stop blabbering about 2014 like LSU fans have for 2019

LSU hasn’t been that competitive since 2019

OSU was in the playoffs in 2016, 2019, 2020 and 2022

LSU hasn’t been close to the mountaintop since

I heard them talking about this on the radio this morning, apparently Ohio State has 11 players who could have went to the NFL last year but came back.

They probably make more at Ohio State than a rookie NFL contract.
