I'm rooting for anyone other than Ohio State or Alabama. They both can just 'go away' already. Notre Dame is right up there too because they are always overrated.

At least Ohio State and Alabama are hated because they’re good. Because Ohio State is anything but an entitled school and by that I mean it ain’t particularly difficult to get into Ohio State.

Why wouldn't Woody Hayes pass?

This is a common myth about Woody. Yea sure Woody could get stubborn in games and would decide to run it down the throats of the opponent doing that. Lost some by doing that too and pryer to the late sixties everyone was playing the I formation or the wishbone which are run dominated.

In the late 60’s Woody led the pack by switching to the T-Formation and playing a more dual threat offense. He consistently lead the Big Ten and most of the nation in passing. He had some very good duel threat QB’s too. Like Rex Kern, Cornelius Greene and Art Schlichter.

So that’s pretty much a myth about Woody. He was conservative but he also stayed current on new innovations and relied a lot on the sports science program to stay ahead of the competition. Woody may have been conservative but he wasn’t stupid. Woody did have other issues though. LOL

They're not hated because they're good.

Yes they are. Otherwise no one would care.

They were ok for OSU QB's, but hardly the type of top QB,that would have gone to OSU ,had they had an aggressive Passing game

 

[anonymoose]

Oh yea of little faith. How you doing bro?

Skiing at Alyeska in a few minutes.

No they aren't.

So? At that time the schools producing the best QB’s were Schools like Purdue, Stanford, Florida, UCLA and Grambling. None of whom were competitive at the D1 national championship level in the 60’s and 70’s. Keep in mind that back then the rules heavily favored the run.

Your question was why didn’t Woody pass? I gave you a factually correct answer. He did.

 

[Mott the Hoople]

Well it’s almost kick off time. Go Bucks.

 

[Mott the Hoople]

Ooooo. This isn’t looking good. Shades of Indiana. Really impressed with Miami’s D-Line.

 

[ULTRA MAGA]

Buckeyes have 30 minutes to to get it together. Fortunately for them Mario will do whatever it takes to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

 

[LurchAddams]

I know! The wheels started coming off Hurricanes D right at the end of the 1st half. Let's see if they can pull it back together!

Ohio State goes down hard to Miami of Florida

 

[gfm7175]

Bye bye Ohio State. This is now THEEEEEEEEEE third straight loss for them on NYE...

 

[gfm7175]

Now we just need Indiana to kick the ever loving fucking snot out of Alabama so they can ROLL TIDE their asses back home where they belong. They only made it in the playoff again this year because their name is Alabama.

GO HOOSIERS!!!!

 

[WinterBorn]

Indiana’s for real. It should be a good game. Indiana is going to have to come up with some serious cash to keep their coach. Isn’t it bizarre for Indiana to be ranked higher than Alabama.

You have to admit Indiana is the sentimental favorite. It will be Alabama against the world. Roll Tide.

I never thought Indiana was anything but real. I have my doubts as to whether my Crimson Tide can pull this off. Unless they developed a run game in the last week or so.

"...because their is Alabama"?

You mean because we have won so many games that our name is well known in championship circles?

I really don't follow college football that much, but now that the Buckeyes are done, I have
to go along with seeing Indiana win it all. Keep the champions up NORTH. We won the Civil
War, now lets continue to win the football championships.
