    That is what the announcers are saying. Looks like OSU dbs have had decent coverage. No pass rush. Without pass rush, OSU can't win.

    Its going to be a track race guys. Your offensive line looks good. Exactly same start as Clemson game.

    OSU has a policy of rotating their DL players a lot, particularly the DEs. I suspect that Togiai will be missed a lot more than Smith.

    Kickers and Togiai and T Smith are most important. Rest shouldn't matter. In light of what it could have been, mildly positive for OSU.

    Pick the score: OSU vs Bama for the National Championship

    I would say (unfortunately) best guess is 52-40 Alabama. I believe OSU has a 1/3 chance of winning game. A big tell is whether OSU is moving the ball well at the beginning of the game. Generally, OSU starts off hot, and in the last 2 games against Clemson OSU was on fire for at least the...

    Browns up 28 to 0 in first quarter and 35 to 10 in first half should give pause to Alabama

    For a lot of OSU fans (definitely not the team), this game is gravy. OSU was lucky to have a season to play at all and they stomped Clemson. Pretty good season. If they can beat Alabama even better. By contrast, in about 2012 OSU was undefeated playing a not very good Michigan team that put...

    Browns up 28 to 0 in first quarter and 35 to 10 in first half should give pause to Alabama

    Browns of course have many 2d and 3rd stringers playing on defense, with Denzil Ward, Grant Delpit, Olivier Vernon and Greedy Williams all out.

    Browns up 28 to 0 in first quarter and 35 to 10 in first half should give pause to Alabama

    You probably listened to the post game interview where Mayfield said he had to introduce himself to a backup guard who had never played for the Browns and never had even taken a practice snap with the first team.

    Browns up 28 to 0 in first quarter and 35 to 10 in first half should give pause to Alabama

    Personally, I believe the disadvantage of playing fewer games outweighs the wear and tear argument. Always difficult to tell. Typically, both OSU and Alabama have in effect practice games against much lesser opponents. OSU didn't have that this year unless you would count Rutgers as that and...

    Seriously, Not Trying To Kiss You Know What, But for the First Time I have spent some significant time listening to Saban and I like him.

    Last year the most common post on the Clemson board was whether they would beat OSU by 30 or 40 points. Amazing arrogance. This year a lot of them are still defending Skalski.

    Browns up 28 to 0 in first quarter and 35 to 10 in first half should give pause to Alabama

    Browns barely beat Steeler team of second stringers last week. Don't know how you play a game without physically practicing. (Browns facility was closed last week) However, Pittsburg shredded Cleveland defense last 2 drives. Pittsburg back in game.

    Browns up 28 to 0 in first quarter and 35 to 10 in first half should give pause to Alabama

    I am just pointing out that even seriously disadvantaged teams can still win ball games. Games are unpredictable. Obviously, Browns game has zero direct connection to Bama game.

    Browns up 28 to 0 in first quarter and 35 to 10 in first half should give pause to Alabama

    Browns missing head coach, and Baker Mayfield couldn't even practice all week because facility closed. Thought they would get killed. Just the opposite happened. That is why you play the games. Would add that OSU is something like 8-2 in winning games over last 10 games when they have been...
