Oregon is not ready to play

Would ND defense give up all these crazy big plays and be trailing 34-8 vs OSU?
Not if we had our guys but, man w/ all the attrition if it starts going wrong it could get ugly. OSU talent is real when playing like this.
 
I think an OSU win will make F+ undefeated through the first two rounds in their predictions with OSU the clear favorite to win the natty.

And I haven't picked a game wrong either...every game has been a mismatch accept UT-ASU. So **** f+, notice the little f🥱

F+ has had the top half of the playoff teams pegged since the midway point of the season (texas, oregon, osu, psu, georgia, notre dame, among others) and has had OSU locked in at #1 since like week 3

The system earned its money last year when they had Michigan #1 way out infront of everybody early-season, but this year the system just keeps hitting and hitting and hitting.

Sure, 👍...any team coached by RD I have no confidence in, if they win it all it will be because of the last 4 classes and in spite of RD! He can recruit and that's it! He lost to a shitty UM team 2.5 games ago!!!

F+ says otherwise.

OSU has been the #1 team in the F+ system since early season.

You can't "recruit your way" to a top F+ (although having really good football players certainly helps). You have to out produce the rest of the field to achieve a #1 F+ ranking. You are not giving OSU the respect they deserve.
 
Yeah? They could. I thought Texas was exposed today, somewhat. Meaning they're good but not that good. Very beatable. And tOSU is a much more dominant juggernaut when they're really ticking and they're really ticking ever since the Michigan game.
Not a fan of them at all, but yes they are imposing their will

What chasehisballs doesn't understand, Michigan is built to a SEC team, Oregon is nothing like an SEC team. They'll eventually face a solid defense whether that's Texas, ND or UGA, and fold.
 
Ohio State's probably the best team in the country, when they're firing on all cylinders, like they are tonight.

Texas is capable of beating them though, IMO.

What if the poster you're corresponding with is chasehisballs? 🤔
I agree with you post. Oregon is soft, bound to fold. Although, I'd rather them win tonight, doesn't look to be happening.

Ohio State is the most talented and complete team. I agree their main relative weakness is Day. Doesn't always make the right adjustments...but he and staff sure seems to have gotten their act together.

Ohio State is peaking at the right time. Texas will be an underdog, but is capable of wining if the Buckeyes don't play well. If both teams play their best, Ohio State is just that much a better team.

Ohio State for me is the emerging college football normal. Next evolutionary step. Thanks to NIL, transfer, and professionalism...where deeper pockets do better.

Notre Dame has some of the deepest pockets in the sport.

Not saying this to you directly, but why do ND fans like to act like ND is this indie band starting in their garage? ND is the biggest most mainstream most wealthy most old money brand in the sport. Or at least easily in the first tier of programs that are. They are just insanely cheap, and ND fans give them a pass for it under the "education first" rhetoric that ND uses to stuff their coffers and make them disgustingly wealthy beyond belief.

I'm going to call you out in your Bullsh1t. OSU hasn't been the #1 team in F+ since early in the season.
Week 4 UGA was #1
Week 6 OSU was #1, but then they dropped out of #1 in week 8.

As for Michigan you're full of sh1 there as well. It's a shame F+ doesn't maintain a historical weekly rating so I could really call you out on your bullsh1t.

Bro, ND is offering as much as the top programs, but these top athletes don't want to be bothered by academics. They don't want to go to class. ND won't compromise on that, get used to it @sshole.
 
Oregon did not play well and got demolished. Ohio State IMO is the team to beat in this tournament.

But the poor way that the bracket is created because of the pre-existing rules also did Oregon no favors. Ohio State is not the eighth best team in this field!

I've consistently posted on ND being a beneficiary...on brand, stability, select transfers, and vast NIL potential. I even posted how the talent gap is IRONICALLY shifting in ND favor.

But although this is true...Ohio State is the leader in this right now.

True about the academic restrictions. But that is not as limiting as it once was. Suddenly ND has the other said factors to get more of the best top athletes that can hang with the academics...perhaps even having more depth than transitory volatile programs.

Only Ohio State seems to have a bit more here...I don't think ND is inferior to any other program right now in depth.
 
So much for the playoff needs to be reformatted narrative. Oregon's the #1 seed. And they're getting spanked like they were lucky to beat a G5 team like Boise St. when they did.

In any event losing to Michigan was a blessing in disguise for tOSU.
That's a POd OSU team right now......Oh, and talented

I read on ESPN a while back that OSU could have 16 to 18 players drafted in the next NFL draft which would break the record of 15 by Georgia around 3 or 4 years ago. Saying that OSU is absolutely loaded is a huge understatement

According to Chase we are not hauling in our fair share of 5 star recruits, which is true. The 5 star recruits don't want to go to class, they just want too lay fir 3 years get their NIL $$$ and head off to the pro's.

It's not even about academic restrictions, it's about just going to class. The top 5 streets don't want to go to class period. they want their NIL bank play 3 years and head to the pro's.

Freeman and the staff are building the roster out with that 2nd tier. high 4 star recruits and with depth. That's why they've been able to close the gap.

Yeah, no doubt. I read some article preseason that detailed all the money they spent, and steps they took to make this year's team a championship team. That was the distinct goal, not just to contend. I still think they could have done better at QB, for such a prolific passing attack they usually feature. But so far so good in the playoff. And they're galvanized after the Michigan loss. No wonder they were all pissy over the flag planting.
 
Ducks got rolled but some really bad luck for the number one team getting OSU while Penn St gets Boise St.

Thanks to Michigan, OSU is probably the team no one wants to play right now. 8th seed my ass !

Don't believe the priority, values AND money, that is placed on education...that's your prerogative...turns out you are wrong

And just to remind about deep pockets, whey isn't Harvard University or Yale University (OR STANFORD UNIVERSITY) buying tOSU's national championship? Because they are all universities first and foremost...like, oh, say,,,the University of Notre Dame...all of whom place greater emphasis on their mission as organizations...and I can tell you first hand that nothing in Notre Dame's mission statement says "Win a football national championship." Or, come to think of it, Harvard's either

And why do you only pick on Notre Dame...these other schools have endowments that could EASILY afford tOSU's payroll...why don't you get all up in their jimmies too? Especially Stanford...they have the largest athletic program in the country...shouldn't they be buying natties?
