I enjoy your show fellas. Go Buckeyes!!!
I disagree with Dan. Ohio State was never in jeopardy of losing that game. Notre Dame came back in garbage time. Ohio State let up on defense. They knew Notre Dame would never score enough against that defense to win the game. They were right. Another thing Dan said that's wrong is that if Notre Dame tied it up, he didn't know what Ohio State would do. Ohio State had 500 yards against them. The Irish could not stop them. So the answer is, Ohio State would have scored again.
Ohio State try to give it away! It seems like they use the Michigan game plan in the second half
They managed the heck out of this game. Ryan Day is a genius !!!
Jesus. He is talking about the run, as in the playoffs. He would have said season
Yep, OSU was in so much trouble and got lucky. They had no control in this game. This is how you saw this game??? What if, What if, What if. Guess what it didn't happen, you fools. I can't believe you get paid to do this. What a waste of money.
You can feel how the Ryan Day haters hate that Ohio State won.
Actually you could argue that they beat 7 of the top 8…
Ryan Day and his coaching staff returned to whom they really are in the second half of this game.
"Turtle up" you're clowns. Do you not understand how to win a game by running out the clock? It was 31-7 in the 3rd. ND got lucky as hell to hit those long passes that they didn't hit all year long, Kick rocks. Ohio State should've kept their foot up ND's ass and beat them by 60 instead of trying to run out the clock just to shut people like you clowns up.
I love that play because if you watch the line the number to receiver for Ohio State's Corner fell down immediately and it forced the safety to come up to cover number two and he couldn't help over the top for JJ they're both lined up on the same side number two's Corner Falls soon as the ball gets hiked that corner comes up immediately and that balls in the air a little stronger on JJ runs into the touchdown the great play by Will Howard floats deep balls it's never a laser go Buckeyes
He learned how to use his timeouts
lol – Suckeyes spent 20 something Million and bought a natty. lots of mediocre coaches have bought natty's in other sports.
Go Bucks!!!!
Why pick on Ohio State only, both Oregon and Texas spent more than $20 Million each on their NIL in the same year
we're going to listen at all to Tony Petiti's take on college football runs?!? the TV and baseball exec? that man barely knows college football 😂😂
Universities and conferences using their high priced lawyers to take advantage of teenagers is not good. When is the last time they played hardball with a coach reneging on their commitment? Standard employment law should apply. Unregulated NIL contracts should not be enforceable.
Pat “But they lost Michigan”. Michigan cheated for 2.5 years dude. Half the wins are still going to be vacated my man. NOA still not released after it was due in December. Tell me thats not an ominous sign.
This guy is a moron
For teams playing for national championships the rivalry games are not as important. This is more like an NFL schedule where Super Bowl champs lose to rivals. It really doesn’t matter. As well as conference championships, do they really matter that much.
OSU was in no real harm of losing this game.
