Dillon Gabriel took Cam Skataboo's Heisman invite

[jeremaineperry]

I’m shocked to hear nobody mentioned the fact that all the teams that lost yesterday were all the teams that hadn’t played in 3+ weeks! I think that’s too long of a bye for college kids

[jeffreyprice]

Ohio state has the hardest road to the natty and is making it look like a cake walk.

This team when playing their best belongs in that conversation fot best team of all time. Nobody would wanna line up and play this buckeye team when clicking. Defense smothering and hitting hard all night. Offensive making you look silly no matter what you do on defense. The talent the fire the focus.

2024 buckeyes are a problem

[fodetoure]

Michigan created villain arc for Buckeyes 😈

[jonwhiley]

As of January 2, 2025, Ryan Day, the head coach of Ohio State, has an impressive winning percentage of 87.5%. This places him among the top active head coaches in college football.

Dan Lanning, the head coach of Oregon, has a winning percentage of 81.5%.

[Bobbleheads]

The texas playcalling at the end of regulation was atrocious they almost blew the game. Channelling eberflus from the NFL with the clock management

[keithgriffin]

Everybody is gonna anxiously wait and see how Gunner Stockton performs tonight assuming Georgia can beat Notre Dame. If Georgia can get past ND and PSU, they’re the only ones that stand a chance beating Ohio state based on coaching and being able to match talent levels

[FredGSanford-xulf]

Everyone should be able to watch the college football bowl games. This should not be a privilege only for those who can afford cable. Rece, Pete, you guys are great. We really enjoy listening to you, and your faces and voices are synonymous with college football, which is a bright spot for most of us. We also know that you are loyal to your company because they are paying you well and your families are taken care of and you live comfortable lives as a result. However, ESPN is ruining college football. Your company is greedy and elite. They make billions in PROFITS (meaning after taxes and salaries and other expenses) every month, but that's still not enough. Hopefully another network takes over college football and returns it to the people. Although admittedly, ESPN has a stranglehold on it, and doesn't plan to relinquish access to it's ability to print money, anytime soon.

I've said all year that Texas was over hyped. They had a very easy SEC schedule and it has shown up against Clemson and Arizona State. We also have learned that a bye week really means weeks and that might not be the best thing. Looking like Ohio state is the team to beat. Go Dawgs

[aeynghus]

If O-State plays like that next week Texas is toast.

[NdreCurry]

Ducks beating ohio state back in October was such a fluke anybody with real eyes knows this

[chacaabbaylee]

Maybe we'll get lucky like 05 texas vs USC and someone will knock off OSU in the title game. That team looks unbeatable right now. Last time I personally said that was 05 usc with Bush and leinhart

[FredLundien]

This it what happens when you don't play for a month while the other teams already have a game under their belt. Oregon looked rusty and not ready to play. I rather be a 5-8 seed than a top 4 seed with a bye.

[charlesparker]

There was clearly a targeting bot called in that game, that changed the whole game talk about 🚩

[fredhernandez]

Oh, please. Just admit ASU rose to the occasion and dominated Texas statistically and personal. Yes, they lost. The score proves Texas won. But, Texas with all the talent 3 to 4 deep was equaled. Don’t say a Texas played sloppy, they were outplayed by character and talent. You disrespect the team who achieved the highest honor over coming a galieth. Which is what is we all hope we can achieve.

[robfalter]

my longhorns have no killer instinct. we never knock teams out when we have them on the ropes

[BrianSimpson-tkxj]

Reminded me of when Oregon dismantled FSU in first round BCS years ago.

[MadBison]

Do not underestimate Texas. They have an outstanding Defense and Speed abounds . This will be a fantastic game. I have it even; it might come down to a little luck and/or coaching.

[corey]

Oregon was a weak undefeated #1 seed. The media hyped up Oregon.

[atranebyrne]

All SEC teams are trash and bowl games prove it
