tOSU vs Missouri, Goodyear Cotton Bowl, Friday Dec. 29, 8 ET on ESPN

When was the last time Ohio State played in a pointless game?

You could say Utah Rose Bowl, but the Rose Bowl is never pointless. Against USC - but that was Rose Bowl too.

I won't lie. I probably won't make the slightest effort to watch this game.

Ill watch, but it's like a spring game to me.
Early opportunity to see what the young kids have.

I know I joked about opting out myself, but this attitude sucks. We don't only have impact starters. Let's see the next batch of WRs and RBs.
As a fan, that’s what I’ll be interested in. But a exhibition game against a second tier SEC team isn’t moving the needle overall, and OSU has a *lot* of potential opt outs.

Don’t try and tell me that doesn’t lessen any potential luster on the game.

USC was the Cotton Bowl and it was a blue blood who had a long winning streak vs us. That was about as big as it gets for a non-CFP bowl

Haven’t given less of a fuck about a bowl game since the gator in 2011 or Alamo in 2004 I think.

I’ve always found a direct correlation to my give a fuck factor for OSU Bowl games and the result of the last game played before it.

2011 I didn’t even watch the Gator Bowl.

2004 I enjoyed the shit out of the Alamo Bowl.

Only if you let it. A bunch of soft doughboys in this thread.
