I told my wife last night that Barrett is almost forgotten about at this point. What he did for this team in my opinion is far greater than what Jones did. Miller unsure if he is returning next year or not http://espn.go.com/college-football/bowls14/story/_/id/12159193/braxton-miller-ohio-state-buckeyes-undecided-2015-return Top 3 running backs in the country by yards: Melvin Gordon (Wisconsin) Tevin Coleman (Indiana) Ezekiel Elliott (Ohio State)

5* athlete Bruce Judson from Fl commits to the 2017 class.

Espn is hiding Mark May lol. I haven't seen one shot of his stupid ass face.

So in a douche move, Herman celebrated after the game in a Houston hat...see ya later dickbag!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Elliott is like 61 yards away from single season record. I'm secretly hoping he gets that tonight. He and Daron Lee are my game mvps once again tonight.

#1 running back in the 2016 class Kareem Walker just committed to OSU

Last 40 games... Osu: 37-3 Oregon: 36-4

My buddies work (IQOR) gave them all the night off early tonight, they felt many would just call off anyways haha. Hopefully we are all on here tonight around midnight celebrating a national championship!

Math skills on point lol

Oregon 36-0 last 3 seasons when scoring 30 points, defense has got to step up big time tonight haha.

I do like the confidence, I just hope it doesn't transition to arrogance. That is a fine line to toe, especially for 18-22 year old kids who are being told nothing but how great they are. I hope Urban and staff have been reminding the team all week, that those same people praising them, were the same ones tearing them apart all season long. Basically, letting them know not to buy into the false hype surrounding them right now by the media. The 06 team for many people including myself stands out I think basically because of the star power and the "what if" surrounding it. Look at that squad and it's sickening knowing that they couldn't get the job done. As for Smith, aside from getting fat on the donut circuit as Tilley made mention of, there is also a long standing rumor that he and Gonzo got into an altercation minutes before the game. The story goes, Smith was banging Gonzo's gf behind his back and it all came to light at the very wrong time. Now how true that story is, well I don't think many people really know, but it's out there. Kind of contradicting myself for a minute, if this team wins tonight, then maybe you can put them up there with the all time great teams (single season, not era's). The qb situation, the youth movement (11 or 22 starters are freshman/sophmores), the off the field issues (Rod Smith, Noah Spence). Also, last night watching the Broncos/Colts game I realized that Jonathan Newsome who was once a Buckeye was playing in the game and forced a fumble. He transferred out and ended up at Ball State.

This team is really good, but would you put them in the same category as the 80's Hurricans, 90's Cornhuskers, 2000's Miami's, USC's, Alabamas? Maybe in a year or two they can be put in the same category as those guys, right now I am not sure. Hell part of me still questions just how good this team really is. Are they really that good or have they been lucky enough to play against weak competition outside of a few games? Just random thoughts going through my mind as I sit here picking it apart waiting on the game to start haha. The key to this game is going to be stopping Mariotta, they have been successful of doing that against the last 2 Heisman finalist, hopefully they are once again tonight. Unlike Alabama, I feel we will know very early in this game just what kind of game its going to end up being. If Oregon comes out lighting it up and torching OSU, then prepare for a long night. Hopefully OSU stops Oregon on their first series and takes it down to score. Setting the tone early will be huge for both teams.

"According to 24/7's Ryan Bartow, 2017's No. 2 DB, Shaun Wade — from the same Jacksonville school as former OSU/Auburn and current Stanford commit Ben Edwards — just became Ohio State's second 2017 commit (behind Massillon's Danny Clark)." Kid is the #14 player in his class, 2 years til graduation, I am sure his ranking will move around before then. I feel 2016 and 2017 will be two of Urbans best classes

Third, I have a strange feeling about this game. I was pretty confident until this morning when I woke up. I think part of my nervousness is coming from the amount of love OSU is getting on ESPN. There is seriously very little talk about Oregon and part of me thinks they are sitting back, watching this and thinkining "well, we'll just show them who we are tonight". My worst fear is Oregon coming out and dropping 50 on OSU, while OSU shits the best once again in a National Championship game.

35-30 OSU

A Pat Forde article that doesn't suck http://sports.yahoo.com/news/the-urban-way--obsessive-nature-has-ohio-state-coach-on-verge-of-another-title-234215583-ncaaf.html

Hopefully if OSU wins the coin toss they defer to the 2nd half. Against Bama I thought, what the hell is Urban doing, OSU always takes the ball first. Then the end of the 1st half and opening of the 2nd half happened and I thought, damn he made the right call after all haha.

I think Oregon makes Jones beat them with the short and intermediate passes. They know he can deliver the bomb, but can he make the other throws? Oregon really tightens up in the redzone, that's where Elliott and the Oline will be real important in my opinion.

I have a feeling that Elliott goes for big yards once again tonight. Looking at his stats this season, if you take away the 1st two games where he barely got any touches, the dude is averaging 7.1 yards per carry! Oregons defense will most likely be playing zone to avoid the home run ball from Jones to Smith, feed Elliott the rock and let him chew up yards and clock.

Watching First Take (not really sure why since I hate this show) and Joey Harrington is on there. Dude is claming that Carrington is not a huge loss, said "its not like he is a 1,000 yard receiver or a difference maker". Maybe someone should let Harrington know that Carrington is a 700 yard receiver and the 2nd leading receiver on Oregon lol. I get being a homer and making a case for your team, but in the words of Chris Carter, cmon man!

For some reason I don't have the amount of confidence I did against Bama. I think the media has been covering OSU way too much, almost as if they have won this game before it's even been played. I watched a special they had on last night that was like 3 hours long, called the drive. 90% of it was pro OSU. I just hope the Buckeyes weren't watching it and thinking they have already won this game. I think OSU wins, but it's gonna be a shoot out. The best part of the show last night was the crowd chanting Mark May Sucks everytime he would talk and or just being insanely loud to drown him out.

Once a prized recruit, LB Trey Johnson is retiring from the game. A lot of people were wondering where he has been and what was going on, now they know, arthritis http://www.elevenwarriors.com/ohio-state-football/2015/01/48133/report-ohio-state-linebacker-trey-johnson-will-end-playing-career-because-of-arthritis

Tim Beck from Nebraska will be the next OC from what I'm hearing
