I'm not sure I want to say anything. Given the way OSU, MIch, GA, Bama, TCU. . . .basically any team that has been in the top 5 this year. . . It is going to come down to discipline, heart, coaching, and maybe a little luck. That goes for both teams in the field Nov 26. Flip a coin is my take. The only advantages I see:. Buckeyes have a score to settle and it is at The Shoe.

Go blue, either way one of them is getting screwed out of the playoffs, gonna open the door to put bama usc or lsu in.

Bama won't be in. Short of LSU completely blowing it LSU is going to the SEC championship game where GA is going to stomp a mud hole in them on their way to stomping a mud hole in everyone else in the playoffs.

I mean there is a very very narrow path LSU has to play GA in regular season. When Ga beats them they would be tied with Bama for the season. The SEC will have to decide. Do we send Bama who lost to LSU, or do we send LSU for a rematch against Ga. Then Bama would have to beat GA to even be considered for the playoffs. And let's face it. Ga would stomp the shit out of them. 😅.

I know bama won't be in but somethings gonna happen. Mich or osu is definitely out. Tcu doesn't belong in there they are playing good ball but they are like Cincinnati. Does lsu and usc take those 2 spots but if Georgia blows out lsu they shouldn't be in either that goes back to a one loss michigan or ohio state staying in.

Throw Miss State in. Their record may not be play off worthy but they have given a lot of teams some serious scares this year.

They want it more. So prepare yourself to listen to them again this year. We lack drive and heart. We can't beat them without those two things.
Yupper!!! I’d trade our OL for theirs in a heartbeat and then bet the house. Polar opposites in drive and heart and why our run game sucks ass! Heck, Stover is far more better a blocker than any of them and he’s our TE! That kids a stud and plays with heart!

The team needs leaders. I think they have them but I question whether CJ is one of them. He might be, but I'm just not seeing it. We don't see anything of practices, locker room, or off field relationships. Even in a televised game we only get portions. Whether he is a leader or not, I don't feel he has been as good lately with his accuracy as he was last year. How is that for being highly critical? The kid is a Heisman front runner. 🤣

I'm going to disagree with Dave and Ric. Not because I'm confident the Buckeyes will dig down and have the heart needed for a win. More because I want to keep my head buried in the sand and hope we eek one out.

Have you seen the last 4 weeks of them? They've eeked out enough. This weekend they gonna learn that you have to play the entire game and put some effort in to win.
