College Football Saturday

Watching Ohio State.....rainy miserable day.

Ohio state seems to be grinding away at Michigan State and seems to be dominate in the run game. Not big explosive plays but solid four and five yard gains behind some very good blocking schemes. They also have been eating the clock up. I do not see the passing game they had last year, but the grinding run game with some simple out routes are very conservative and effective. I think Meyer is playing his cards tight to the vest. They are up by seven.

Michigan State right back at them with some very effective passing. They made it look easy.

Msu starting qb is out today... he's going to be a very high nfl pick. But thems the breaks.

Both the second and third string qb are not bad... but beating osu at home is a tall order.

Big fumble mistake. Ohio state scores. I hate to see a game determined by a mistake.

No msu pass attempts in the 3rd quarter. But we're still in it. If cook were in this we'd be dominating.

The osu secondary is their big weakness... just like msu.

I agree. I am not impressed with the Ohio State secondary. They have a great defensive line and linebackers, but you have pointed out their achilles heel. Well they just took advantage of that weakness and tied it up.

This is old time smashmouth big ten football here. It builds tension like a baseball game does.

Great game, but Meyer's game plan was far too conservative and they abandoned the pass. This one is on him.

I think you underestimate the dominance msu exhibited on both sides of the line. Msu could run the ball... osu couldn't.

I think they have a path to the championship now. Iowa loses to them in the big ten championship, they have to be considered. I think MSU was the better team today, but I found the lack of passing by Ohio State curious, especially when repeatedly the receivers had beat their coverage on long passes.

Give me a semi healthy conner cook and one more healthy secondary player and this team can win it all.

They've had terrible luck with key players... and still have their futures in their hands. That's all you can ask.

Ohio state should never have been ranked as high as they were this year, they squeaked by on many games. Michigan State was and is the better team yesterday.

This changes the national outlook.

Just Friday one of my 75 yr old clients and I agreed who would be the final 4, Clemson, Ohio State, Alabama and Notre Dame since TCU's fall last week, but this is going to change the whole landscape. He thinks Alabama will take the whole thing, I am holding back on that one, I like Michigan State, Clemson and Notre Dame.

Notre Dame is overrated... like usual. I've watched clemson several times now and an not wowed. They're a solid team no doubt... very consistent... no glaring weakness... but also no big weapon. I expect them to be in the playoff... but lose first rd.

So, who's your 3 other picks? Is ohio state out?

"Solid...very consistent...no glaring weakness."

Sounds like a few strong points to a winning season to me.

I don't know Z, I don't follow any other sports. I suppose my wife will quit griping and we'll go more places.
