Ohio state and florida state are live live dogs on jan 1. Mark it down

[homie1975]

Barring injury to jameis, fsu matches up very well w oregon.

ohio state from a physical standpoint is a nightmare matchup for the most finesse bama team since 2008.

i love both dogs. Fsu plus 8.5 and ohio st plus 10 look like great plays

[Vinnie Paz]

Finesse bama team lmao. Ohio st does not stand a chance here

[homie1975]

Finesse bama team lmao. Ohio st does not stand a chance here

learn how to read. I said most finesse bama team since 2008. Ie least physical. Can u read that son. I did not say they were finesse. They r nowhere near as physical as the last 5 bama editions

[BChrisB]

Especially at 10, how could you not take the points?

[jjgold]

The best you will go is one and one it's the story of sports betting And the juice will get you

[MoneyLineDawg]

Bama rolls but FSU/Oregon should be a very good game....Both Heisman QBs going back and forth written all over it

[lahustle]

Speed kills.... Ducks roll

[homie1975]

another thing: opposing defenses LOVE to play against the heisman winner after hearing for 3 weeks about how good he is.

history tells the story.

if you don't know this, you are college football NOVICE

it's FSU +10 or NO play at all.

[GoBlue77]

smh..................................... ...............

No clue which JJ posted this but finally a useful post by this user.

[daneblazer]

People act like is Jameis Winston and 10 Tt Warriors on FSU's roster. Pretty sure they have fast guys too

[Big Bear]

Bama's pass defense will get torched by Cardale Jones.

[TiredPro]

Bama's pass defense will get torched by Cardale Jones.

A very slight chance on one or two plays IF the game were played this Saturday catching Bama coming off of two big wins, BUT Cardale will have to hear about how great he was for three plus weeks and Bama will have three plus weeks to prepare. On the other side of the ball, Bama will have a field day against OSU secondary.

[texhooper]

i believe the last time meyer faced alabama they knocked florida out of the bcs title picture. and tim tebow was crying openly and uncontrollably on the sideline like the meathead that he is. so maybe meyer has something up his sleeve. hard to not see bama rolling in this one though.

[Booya711]

I hope OSU loses by 50

hear about how great he was???? He knows he is great. But he's got a gazillion weapons around him too.

he dont need anybody else stroking his ego... every fukkin player on the Buckeyes has an ego the size of Texas.

He knows he plays for "The" Ohio State.

[jjgold]

no such thing as a live dog anymore

so much info on teams

[stevenash]

This.

Oregon gonna waylay FSU.

You see the BC/FSU game?
I did, FSU was terrible that game.
They were terrible the game before that against a 6-6 Miami team, winning by 3.

They won their last four games with horseshoes up their ass, all 4 games were decided by 5 points or less.

I'm baseball guy, not so much football guy, but from where I sit, Oregon with that offense, and you got to remember, that Duck defense is good too, will beat FSU by two two touchdowns plus.

Ask yourself this? When was the last time this season did the Seminoles play a game that made you say "Wow! this team is f'n good?
I don't rememeber either. Exactly.

People have been saying this all year...ask yourself this...when is the last time FSU lost?

I'm not saying the will beat Oregon, but all they do is win

[stevenash]

So did the Orioles, how they make out in October?

FSU is to NCAAf as Baltimore Orioles is to MLB last season.

[Booya711]

I don't pay attention to baseball so I can't compare but FSU hasn't lost in two years

[daneblazer]

More than likely, FSU will lose a close game, Oregon ATS & FSU ML will be losers and Vegas will throw up a new Casino in the game's honor.

[jjgold]

Oregon might score 52 points vs Flor St

I say something like 55-30

[RavensFan2k3]

lol not the same thing at all. Orioles were winning close games that people didnt see them winning at all. FSU is winning close games that people thought FSU should be winning with ease

[Book Crook]

if you don't know this, you are college football NOVICE

Ohio State is 0-2 against Bama and 1-9 against SEC opponants.

They are going to get DESTROYED by bama!!! They managed to beat Arkansas 31-26, that win was eradicated so technically they are 0-9

the Buckeyes have been blown out in back-to-back BCS Championship games -- first by Florida (2007), then by LSU (2008) -- but the truth is, Ohio State's struggles against the SEC date all the way back to 1977, when they were pummeled by Alabama, 35-6, in the Sugar Bowl.
That's exactly what's going to happen again here. OSU didn't deserve a spot in the playoffs and Bama is going to show them why.

[stevenash]

Bama should beat OSU by double digits, but tell me why OSU should not be there?
They lost a Labor Day game to Virginia Tech, then ran the table the next 3 months.
Seriously, you are punishing them for losing to Va Tech 3 light years ago, Buckeyes won out after that for the love of God.

Urban Meyer clearly was the best college coach this season, that includes that bozo in Tuscalosa.
He took a third string QB, had one week to get him up to speed and game ready, and they beat Wisky 312 to 0

[jtoler]

Bear you must be from Ohio.

Then what should teams be punished on if not for losing? Any other criteria?

Yes bro the SEC owns Ohio State, Urban knows this and wont be able to sleep for a month.

i wish i were an urban meyer weiner. then everyone would b in love with me

Well, you can make a case with TCU because of their slightly tougher SoS, they lost to Baylor, and you can make a case for Baylor beating TCU, but Baylor had the softest SoS between the 3 of them (OSU included)
Ohio State was 2-0 vs. top 30's, 1-0 vs. top 10's
Baylor and TCU were 3-1 each vs. top 30's TCU 0-1 vs. top 10 Baylor vs. top 10 1-0.
However, one of those TCU top 30 wins was against #30 Minnesota.

Ohio State was 1-0 against top 10's, 2-0 versus top 30's

Not for nothing, Alabama played 10 top 30 teams this season, won nine.
Alabama's schedule this year was pretty much top ranked teams all season, and if anybody looks at me with a straight face and tells me Tide is not by far the cream of the cream of this final four, needs to have their man card takebn away.
Only team that can beat Tide are the Ducks.

TCU in my opinion is the better team than Baylor, but like I said they lost Baylor, Ohio State has a better resume than Baylor, and unlike Baylor/TCU who are co-champions, OSU is a outright Conference champion.

Solution, there should be an 8 team format.

[stevenash]

SEC owns everybody because that conference out recruits everybody so the SEC winds up with the most talented HS players.
Every HS kid used to dream to go to Penn State or Michigan or USC or Notre Dame when I was a kid, now every HS kid wants to play in warm weather or play for Auburn or Alabama etc. etc. so the trend now is for the HS elite to play ball down south.

Just like women's hoop, used to be every HS girl that had talent wanted to play for Tennesse, the trend now is UConn.

Its because the best football players come from the south.

Dont you think the closeness of games against much lower ranked teams should be taken into account also?

[STAX]

Ohio State's team is entirely made up of freshman and sophomores... if you aren't in love with Ohio State's talent now, you will be soon enough. Bucks are the next dynasty in college football. No one stays on top forever, only a matter of time before someone transplants Bama from the CFB throne. It may not be this year, but win or lose, I promise you will be impressed with Ohio State. Next year Buckeyes will be preseason #1 no matter what happens in the playoffs. We basically lose Devin Smith and thats it off the offense. Defensively we have NFL talent everywhere, and its deep. Defense is young too, wait till you see Joey Bosa play... hes a sophomore, and is projected top 10 pick whenever he decides to leave. Bucks have frehsman and soph weeing PT all over the field. Urban is building a dynasty... and it is starting right now. We may beat Bama we may not, but I promise you, you will impressed with Ohio State, and if you are not, you're just lying to yourself

No one can seem to get over us losing to V Tech... I mean anyone who watched that game knows it was JT Barrett's lack of experience that hurt. Kid looked scared to death out there, but the kid was playing his 2nd game (on primetime TV), and he choked. He missed all of last year bc of redshirt and missed his entire senior year of high school bc he got hurt in 1st qtr of the first game. Then he ran the table and was all big ten QB.
