    Lets see what a Playoff could actually look like

    I'm going to get self-congratulatory, but this is exactly why I'm happy Tressel and company schedule "tough" OOC opponents like Texas and USC. UW didn't pan out of course, and they won't always, but more times than not it has. I've got a lot of respect for schools like USC and Tennessee that...

    The only thing I find disagreeable is the insinuation that Ohio State and Cal defenses are comparable. USC may be able to play them one dimensional like that, but I think our DLine will be very good next year.

    QB Troy Smith (2006 Heisman Trophy Winner)

    For the second time, I never said Troy should be starting. I said he deserves a chance. You know, taking snaps and starting aren't the same thing. I already told you it had nothing to do with the QBs. The comparison was about expectations, nothing else. But keep on harping on that no matter...

    QB Troy Smith (2006 Heisman Trophy Winner)

    Alright, this is the third or fourth time I've had strawmans thrown at me here. I'm going to ask that you actually read before responding. I never said Troy should be the starter. I said he deserves a chance -- and I didn't even say he deserves a chance with the Ravens (though ostensibly that is...

    hehe exactly -- Flacco is a washed up Jennifer Aniston

    QB Troy Smith (2006 Heisman Trophy Winner)

    For starters, I didn't just highlight the defense -- I've highlighted the rushing attack as well. 4th best in NFL this year. That's very good production. The thing is, you can make a lot of those same claims about Trent Dilfer. But it's generally accepted that he never was very good "simply...

    Lets see what a Playoff could actually look like

    And there, in a nutshell, you have my problem with all the "playoffs will fix everything" people. It doesn't. 16 teams is a farce. "Wildcards" do win championships... which is bs. I may get slaughtered for this, but we did not deserve to be in a playoff this year. We had already lost to 2 of...

    QB Troy Smith (2006 Heisman Trophy Winner)

    Where did I ever say I thought Troy would have done better? The thing is, Flacco did nothing that impressive. I'm not sure you can even claim the "game manager" title (which is really just a nice way of saying he's junk)... #4 rush offense... #28 pass offense. Hmmm. Wonder who really did the...

    There you have it. Flacco for Hall of Fame!

    QB Troy Smith (2006 Heisman Trophy Winner)

    Please, there isn't a single impressive thing that Flacco has done here. 14 TD 12 Int and 22nd rated QB ... I'd be saying Troy had a lot of room to improve if he had those numbers too. Baltimore didn't get where they were by having the 28th pass offense and 24ppg... they got there off their D.

    Congratulations!! You've discovered our secret... we all like Ohio State. Now that the bug is out, I'm going to take off before NDC or Methomps gets wind of this development.

    Lets see what a Playoff could actually look like

    Actually that logic proves that there is more worth in the 8 or 9 games. This is because those were against a web of shared opponents (esp in the case of P10.) The other 3 or 4 ... well ... that really depends on who you play. Penn State being a 1-loss team makes my point for me this year. Their...

    QB Troy Smith (2006 Heisman Trophy Winner)

    Don't forget Holmes' TD... that was a nice way for pitt to win if they had too as well. I'll never forgive that dumbass Savage for all his stupid draft picks and giving up so much for a Pretty Boy when Troy was available late in the draft. What a complete cock up.

    Lets see what a Playoff could actually look like

    That makes absolutely no sense, which is exactly the issue I have with a 16 team playoff (or any other number over 11 -- assuming the number of conferences doesn't change.) There is no imaginable way a "wildcard" can logically call themselves champions after failing to even with their own...

    If we don't shoot ourselves in the foot with dumbass penalties... I think we'll do just fine.
