    How in the ????? can they rank Clemson over Georgia, in fact over several of the teams lower than them?

    Big Crowd at Columbus, I do see empty seats though. Not surprised and I expect to see pretty much the same all over the country today. Big crowds but not packed to the rafters like they would have been in 2019.

    Bill I am pretty sure that some computer algorithm is involved.

    I see another starter on defense out for Oregon. Ohio State is going to eat up the Oregon defense.

    I'm not sure I have ever seen that, Duck db was still looking at his wrist band while the Buckeye WR ran by him and of course was wide open for the TD.

    7-7 close game so far, I think for whatever the reason the Buckeyes are a slow starting team.

    14 - 7 Oregon, didn't see that coming. Could've been worse if not for sort of tricky tack holding call on that big play that would have put the Ducks 1st and 10 inside the 15.

    Still they were down at half to Minnesota last week. Halftime adjustments and they caught fire. I expect something like that, they do have to make sure Oregon doesn't get points on the 1st possession.

    So far Oregon is making us look a bit like the underdog? We best improve drastically in the second half.

    Joe Morehead is calling a nice game as Oregon’s OC.Has had the Buckeyes on their heels the 1st half. Were it not for a BS holding call, Oregon would likely be up by 2 TDs at the half.

    Illinois going down big time to UVA. Magic from the Nebraska win is gone.

    Looks like a dog fight in Knoxville with Pitt up 27-20 at half time.

    Bet this is about as busy a weekend for the Air Force and Navy pilots doing flyovers as they have ever had.

    Kerry Coombs will not be feeling a lot of love next week from Columbus.

    The difference in this game was our inability to stop the Duck's rushing game. I am afraid this will be troublesome this year if a team, has a good defense and Oregon certainly took advantage of that today.

    More bragging rights for the Pac 12 as the Ducks take down the Buckeyes. OSU put up over 600/yards in total offense but missed some critical red zone opportunities.

    Didn't see the 2nd half of the Ohio State game, watched the Irish implode instead.

    But from the first half, you could see that Oregon had found something on offense. Their defense was surprisingly good, esp considering the 2 starters they were missing.

    I really thought though that at half time Day would make adjustments and we'd see the big play offense we saw vs Minnesota.

    Well the Aggie season looks to be in jeopardy.
    Had to watchc the Oregon/OSU game through most of the first quarter so don't know what happened, but my QB is out, and the 2nd stringer is lost. Defense already tired playing at altitude and ZERO first downs by our offense.

    Alabama started out rough but eventually came around. Florida game next.
