who got its brains blown in by Oklahoma very similar to what Ohio state did to
Not even close
1. OU played at home, while OSU played on the road
2. OU won by 11, OSU won by 18
3. OU outgained Michigan by 120 yards, 408 to 288. OSU outgained them 419 to 163. And OSU was running clock literally in the 3rd quarter
Oh yea, and OSU did it in the snow and OU was playing at home when it was 75 degrees in September
Those are not anywhere near the same result
Edit: and since you're playing a game that is completely fictional, what did OU do against Texas...the Texas team that OSU also beat the crap out of physically

You have played one ranked team since Texas, Michigan, who got its brains blown in by Oklahoma very similar to what Ohio state did to them. . You won by 18
Ohio state is very good, maybe even the best team in the country, but their “dominance” this season is a product of their schedule
Oklahoma beat Michigan by 11 in Oklahoma.
Ohio State beat Michigan by 18 in Ann Arbor in a snow storm.
I don't know why everyone likes to pretend that Ohio State isn't for real.
They've won 16 games in a row.
They've beaten 3 top 10 SEC schools in the last 12 months.
They have a defense that's yielding the fewest points since FSU in 1993.
They are averaging 35 points a game without even trying because they don't need to score.
They beat Texas who only lost 2 games in the SEC, and just beat aTm.
What else could they have possibly done in the last 12 months to convince you that they are hands down the best team in the country ?
I don't like them either, but I live in the real world.

what did OU do against Texas
Ohio state is good but the fact is they beat Texas by 7 in an extremely close game in Columbus and had played one ranked team since then
Saying “it’s foolish to not think Ohio stays would win by 20 now” is just homerism

It would be around a touchdown spread

You've been saying the Bills are gonna win the Superbowl every year since 2020, so everything you say can not be trusted

if Ohio State is playing to the best of their ability, then nobody... but they are due for a frick up game, and the slate of teams only gets harder from here out

Where in there did I say that Ohio State would/should be favored by 20 over Texas.
I didn't mention a line at all.
I think you have me confused with the Ohio State poster

Good lord have some faith in your team
Your win over Oregon is much better than any win they have. I'd probably take Georgia in a pick em. .

Oregon should get Dakorian Moore, Gary Bryant, and Evan Stewart back. I honestly want to host a game so they get some chemistry

Ohio State played a soft league schedule and didn’t look like world beaters every week doing it. Illinois kept giving them the ball in scoring range, Ohio state couldn’t sustain drives. 2.9ypc, 50% on 3rd down, <275 total yards.
Washington was down 7-3 at half and 14-6 to start the 4th. Again, lack of sustained drives resulting in points.
I don’t think Indiana needs them to be disinterested, but they need to play at the top of their own game.
Get into the playoffs and all bets are off. None of these leagues really played one another in any meaningful way. Texas was 2 plays away from being 7-5 and they hung tight in Columbus, granted in week 1.

Oregon, UGA, Notre Dame in the playoffs. IU as well. Bama can't run the ball, Ole Miss and OU are one dimensional, talent gap too big for Miami and Tech (and BYU if they get in)
Posted on 12/2/25 at 9:39 pm to One Hoosier
The following teams have the talent to beat OSU on any given day:
A&M
Georgia
IU
Ole Miss (if Kiffen was there)
Bama
ND
A&M
Georgia
IU
Ole Miss (if Kiffen was there)
Bama
ND

Ohio state is giving up 7.8 a game. Think about that a second?
I don’t give a frick who you play- you give up less than 8 points a game you are legit.
Just don’t see anyone hanging with them 4 quarters
Posted on 12/2/25 at 9:51 pm to UnoMe
Nobody saying they’re not legit. I’m saying they’re beatable.
They’ve shown enough times that they can expose themselves in games. They’ve played nobody with an offense near as good as Indiana. On a night where they’re having trouble sustaining drives, that’s a dangerous opponent.
They show up and play like they did against Washington or Illinois against half these playoff teams, they’ll get beat.

List these times out?
When your opponent can’t score more than 3 points a half, not sure how they were ever exposed?
