Wow. Been awhile since I heard that name. RIP man.

284 mph? Jesus.

Shit. That would have been the one most likely.

I wasn't coming down on you. Just kind of venting. I agree that the lack of intensity killed them. Playing the whole game every time is what it takes.

The psychology of sports is a fickle bitch. OSU has always seemed to think that when they hit the field that it's already a win. They were hyped up for Penn State, but it took a FUCKING MIRACLE to come back and win. They did it, but then they lay a boulder sized egg against Iowa. When will the guys realize that there is, and always will be, a huge fucking target on their backs and the only way to avoid let down is to stay hungry. It does wear on you as an athlete and having EVERYONE in Columbus blowing you after a big win can and apparently did get to their heads. You lose Bosa in the 2nd quarter.....Guess what? That means that focus needs to go up and intensity has to be at its height. We were out coached and out played and fucking embarrassed. Let's see how the boys respond against Sparty and go from there. It sucks when you hope for them to be in the playoff every year, but this season isn't over yet. I know it's way different than being scrutinized by a country, but the guys I grew up playing baseball with were expected to win a state title in high school. We were really fucking good, but fell 2 games short. The feeling of letting everyone down sucked. We never really went out expecting to win, but we had plenty of moments where it looked like the team wasn't in it in certain games. I understand how it feels to win big games and then have to go out the next day and try and keep the focus and intensity level up. Not always easy and we were fucking kids like these boys are at OSU. Think of it this way, we have the ability to be in the hunt for the playoff year in and year out. A realistic shot of getting in each year. Rough problem to have....I guess

And stare at it constantly to avoid actually paying attention to the world around them?....oh shit, I'm getting too old and need a shotgun and a lawn chair :gabe:

45-10 against a team that almost always plays bama tough was a Homer prediction. 24-10 final was more like what was expected. A Bama win, but LSU keeps it semi close without actually being a threat to win.

Wisconsin hasn't lost yet bammer. I stress yet, but the B1G isn't out of it yet.

I said no bullshit. Not a Homer prediction...

The loss to Florida in the title game still takes that for me. The loss today is close though.

Hahahahaha. Holy fuck I wish I had lubed up today. Team Ramrod paid us a visit in Iowa....woof. Can I get a no bullshit prediction from Lauren on tonight's Bama LSU game?

Georgia and Bama do not play in the regular season this year.

I do need a car that gets 30 ish mpg and has 4 doors....Seriously considering this. I also want another stick car for a daily.

I talked with Scott at Brians, dyno tune, about this change. He said that an article was coming up on it and here it is. Must be cool to be able to not only do things to your car, but to write it up and then go race it. Looking forward to what she will have done come next spring.

I'm ok with this. Is Clemson really deserving of the 4th spot after losing to Syracuse? Committee must have thought that they only lost due to their starting qb going down early in the game. Should that matter? Not really, but it does. Just keep winning and you are in. Simple as that. The regular season is the first portion of the playoffs anyway.

That is a part of the speculation. I'd say baseball did it to up the home run and run totals. They will never admit to it, but a hanging slider is a much easier pitch to hammer than one that literally disappears from the hitting zone on its way by. It's dumb to alter how balls are treated for the post season. Pitching isn't sexy to most casual fans. It's fun to watch the teams slug it out, but I can watch a well pitched game too.

How about the race where he won by 0.006? Damn.

Yep. Multiple pitchers have literally been blind folded and were able to pick out the different balls by feel. Look at all the pitchers struggling with their sliders too. Definitely something to it.

Well, I know it's "only baseball", but the games have been really good so far. The non baseball fans would enjoy the offensive outburst that has been the norm so far. Game 6 is Tuesday if anyone cares....haha.

Had to watch the end again. 13/13 for 170 and 3tds in the 4th quarter. That needed said again. That's how a stud senior qb performs. Wow.

How is Oklahoma's win over Ohio State one of the best wins if Ohio State is over rated and no good?

Yeah, Iowa State did take out TCU didn't they? Or were you talking about Notre Lame over NC State?

That was a good game. We made plenty of mistakes, but still managed to hang in and win in the end. LOVE IT. Our resident Bammer can eat an ass now :gabe: Haha

Snag some Cubans in Canada?....Cigars that is

My interview was last Friday at 8am, so I got to test out the drive. I went up rt 8 after seeing the massive amount of red on the gps map around 271/480. Then I heard that the construction through there made it aweful. Looks like rt 8 for me. It took me about 45 minutes to get there. Traffic was heavy, but moving along well.
