  • se-alum
    Watchin' the game again on BTN right now. Rashad Frazier made more plays in this game than Steve Miller did all year.

    Something special brewing at TOSU. Chance to finish this season off with a National Championship and like many have said this group is very young.....I love it.

    Not just a chance, but a good chance. Alabama doesn't really scare me at all; they aren't as good as years past especially defensively. Their offense has some weapons but I truly think our defense is better than anything they've faced all year.

    Oregon and FSU aren't that great either. I think Oregon just out athletes every team in the Pac12 so they always seem to dominate the conference and they are always hyped up as some super prolific group but they rarely win anything.

    I feel very confident against FSU or Oregon. Alabama is very very good. Not unbeatable by any stretch but need to bring the team we saw in the Big10 Championship.

    They are being given a lot of credit because of their name. They aren't a power team anymore. They are similar to the team a few years ago that got BLOWN OUT by Utah.

    I hope you are right...but I am going to keep my mind around the idea that they are really really good. So is OSU but we need to show up big again.

    I think it's safe to say all 3 of the teams in the tournament are better than anyone we've played so far.

    You could say the same about the other 3 teams, no?
  • Mulva
    I think TCU and MSU are both better than FSU.

    Absolutely.

    Osu's opponents have been 86-69 (55%)
    They played 2 10 win teams, 1 9 win team,
    1 8 win team and 2 7 win teams

    Alabama's opponents have been 90-66 (58%)
    They have played 2 10 win teams, 1 9 win teams,
    2 8 win teams and 3 7 win teams

    Florida state's opponents have been 83-73 (53%)
    They have played 1 10 win team, 2 9 win teams
    And 3 7 win teams

    Oregon's opponents have been 83-76 (52%)
    They have played 3 10 win teams (Arizona twice)
    1 9 win team, 2 8 win teams and 1 7 win team

    Not one of the contenders has played a 13, 12 or even an 11 win team.

    Ohio State will go 14-1. Book it.

    Just watched The Journey: B1G Championship game. There isn't a better sports related program on tv than The Journey series.

    BTN has a lot of shit. But the journey is an awesome show.

    Was pretty impressed with it. Lot of crap on B1G network but this show is well done.

    Just saw the end of the game replay. With about 40 seconds left they pan the camera to Michael Bennett and you can see him mouth to another player on the sideline "i thought it was going to be like 24-35, not 59-0"

    So?

    Was just interesting. Not something you ever hear a player actually say publicly. I sometimes wonder how these players really think the game will go.
