Their too busy relishing in the fact they are undefeated and in the CFP. This year? No. They're undefeated. The previous two years when they were left out despite winning the conference? I think they would have loved for the perception of the conference to be tougher so they might have gotten an invite. 4 Quote Link to comment

The previous two years when they were left out despite winning the conference? I think they would have loved for the perception of the conference to be tougher so they might have gotten an invite. 2017, Ohio State had 2 losses. No team has made the playoffs with 2 losses. 2018, there were 3 undefeated teams and Oklahoma was taken over Ohio State mainly due to Ohio State getting smoked by Purdue. Yes, the Big Ten was considered “down” in 2018, but Michigan probably would have made the playoff if they had beaten Ohio State and then won the conference title game. The biggest thing that has hurt the Big Ten and making the playoff isn’t the perception of the conference, it’s the fact the conference forces teams to play 9 conference games. Only one team (Ohio State this year) has gone through a 9 game conference schedule and conference championship game season undefeated. It cost Oregon this year, and it probably cost Ohio State in 2017 and 2018. 1 Quote Link to comment
I am I Posted December 28, 2019 Author Share Posted December 28, 2019 The B1G is looking good in bowls so far thats a plus for all the teams in the conference. I just liked how Iowa and AF played the games. Hard nosed, few mistakes, good tackling, etc. I think if Nebraska gets their stallions we will be good again. However, I like the idea that we need to be tough assed MF’ers too who play a good brand of mistake free ball that’s well disciplined and suited to our brand Quote Link to comment
Big red surfers Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 After watching this blow out and few “kids” saying this the best team ever. I had to go on you tube and catch the highlights of the 96 fiesta bowl. Almost cried. God how I miss those days/games. Quote Link to comment

No scheme will succeed if we continue to play like we have for the past (what seems like 20 years). Our "Brand" for too long has been mistake prone, self inflicted, find a way to lose... Seeing some great football so far during bowl season. Quote Link to comment

That brand expired 20 years ago – too long ago to say it's "our brand." 1 Quote Link to comment

They chose Texas over us, and were on board ditching us and going to the Pac 10. I lost the respect I had for them long ago. 2 Quote Link to comment

kshusker89 Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Anyone else find it interesting in the halftime talk with both coaches they knew what happened in the first half on both sides of the ball. Frosts responses thru the season, "I don't know what happened I'll have to watch the tape". This is the difference between a coach who is engaged fully in the whole team compared to Frost who is paying attention to his offense, and letting his defensive coaches pay attention to the D. Head coaches are responsible for all aspects of the game 1 1 Quote Link to comment

This is the difference between a coach who is engaged fully in the whole team compared to Frost who is paying attention to his offense, and letting his defensive coaches pay attention to the D. Head coaches are responsible for all aspects of the game A couple of things: 1) Ryan Day calls the offensive plays for Ohio State, just like Scott Frost. 2) It’s perfectly normal for coaches to say “I need to watch the tape” to truly see if the mistake was in the play call, alignment, or a bust by a player. Coaches are smart to do this right after a game because they aren’t placing blame quickly in a public audience, when the person at fault isn’t always known right away. Plus, it’s not a good thing for head coaches to throw their players or assistant coaches in front of the bus to the media without knowing the true reason a play failed. 3 1 Quote Link to comment
ColoradoHusk Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Is Ryan Day all of a sudden a bad example of a Head Coach who only focuses on offense when personal foul penalties by Ohio State’s defense and special teams lead to Clemson extended drives and TD’s? 2 Quote Link to comment
