Week 13 college football thread: Don’t It Make My Buckeyes Blue?

I turned it off when it hit 31-10. Later we had some lights to put up, saw the Beavs had taken the lead so I listened to the game on radio. Incredible comeback!

 

Let's be honest, if Michigan and Ohio State swapped coaching staffs the Buckeyes would've won 61-9. Ryan Day has always given me the impression of a guy fortunate enough to get place on third base and swears he hit a triple.

 

Hmmm ...

 

Of all the coaches who would have a burner account on this website, Jim Harbaugh is up there.

Lane Kiffin is a shoe-in. There’s no way one of us isn’t Lane Kiffin.

I think he is @Vombatus

 

Most amazing stat: Oregon State did not throw a pass in the final 23:24 of the game; its last pass came with 8:24 remaining in the third quarter. It scored 28 points on 15 consecutive running plays over four possessions, then added three more kneel downs on its fifth possession to finish the game with 18 in a row.

 

Yeah, that part was incredible. Reminded me of the 1984 WSU at Oregon game. Everyone in Autzen knew Mayes would keep getting the ball, and he kept racking up the yards, 357 of them on the way to a 50-41 win.

 

Lord, no.

 

With an enthusiasm unknown to mankind

 

He seems to have gotten over it. They moved back to Cincinnati two years ago, so his youngest could play QB at St Xavier. He also has a son who's a walk on TE, on the OSU team.

 

I don’t understand this, why defenses will not stack the box in the face of clear run plays and instead still have 2 safeties back.

If there’s one place for analytics isn’t that one where you would say “just dare them to throw it, your chances to win go up x% if you drop everyone into the box”?
