OST: 2023 College Football Regular Season Thread

[JTrain]

Road conference game and two ooc home games but no names?

Sure, @ Indiana, Youngstown State and WKU. Won by 20, 28, and 53. Dropped multiple spots. Yet, teams ahead of us looked like dog shit this weekend. Go ahead and explain why we got jumped after a 20 and 28 point win, but can't jump back after FSU won by 2, Texas by 21, and Michigan by 25. Explain it, if you think I'm wrong.

Duke moved up, but tOSU remains at 6. Huh.

Edit. Duke will come crashing back to earth in a few weeks.

Colorado star Travis Hunter is expected to miss USC game on September 30

Dodged a bullet whew!

Yep...we were told we were shit for beating Youngstown State 35-7. Texas beat Wyoming 31-10, moved up to 3rd. We are giving up less than 6 pts per game while scoring 40 per...we are "struggling"...the rest of the Top 5 doesn't match that, they "just working out the kinks"

I know its annoying to read my bitching about this, but I'm simply providing facts as to why I say that there is a heavy bias against Ohio State. We can beat ND by 30, and we wont move up.

No. I get it. As I said, it comes off as a bit Rodney Dangerfield… only that, in this scenario, they were actually picking on him. So, it’s accurate.

I’m guessing this is helping. Your coach is aware of it. And, those rankings are going on poster boards in the locker. It’s fuel. Use it.

[PokesBo]

Tough game Saturday against South Florida.

BLINK A LINK A LINK

[worldofx]

It's cute that the media is throwing out Elko's name for the Michigan State job but that dude should wait for something better.

Colorado State player, family receive death threats after hit on Hunter

Were they also spit on by racist Alabama fans?

[CheaterMichael]

I don’t think Auburn is very good but I like their chances with an 11am kickoff at Aggie. No one likes 11am kickoffs expect slow heartland teams so we'll see what happens.

[JTrain]

Of course Computer based polls have tOSU higher. They don't have a clear personal bias against one school. For example, Brett McMurphy has Ohio State 9th. Explain it...if its not what I say it is, explain that.

[JTrain]

Also, if you guys like the weekly separate threads you should keep doing them. I am really just using this as a single place to talk about Ohio State games and then bitch about INJUSTICES in the polls after it. Its just my preference to keep it all in one spot.

Just change the title to Nobody respeks tOSU.

Right now I'm whittling a matchstick to make the world's smallest violin.

Be a bit magnanimous to other programs who are seeing some limelight after decades.

You fucks will be there at the end of you beat Meechigan. Just like we will be there after beating Utah.
