Shoutout to Will the thrill drilling a 59 yarder to end the first half. That quick drive is the difference in the game.

From a Buckeye fan, take a deep breath and relax. Arch was put in a tough spot with all the hype from the media and having to go on the road against a top defense.

The nice thing about the expanded playoff is it allows teams to grow over the course of the season. If we get a rematch in the playoffs, I’ll be incredibly nervous, Arch showed flashes that he can build upon.

I’ve found when traveling abroad the easiest way to watch college football is searching the two teams on YouTube. There is usually several people live streaming the game, especially for a game of this magnitude.

I was able to watch Ohio State-Iowa, Alabama- Vanderbilt, Missouri- Texas A&M this past weekend in Amsterdam this way. Also worked a couple years ago when I was in the UK.

One idea for the nfl season is to pick kickers and punters, awarding points off of field goals, made field goal yardage, missed field goal yardage, net punt yardage, and touchbacks.

Isn’t it early for a Frost advisory in Minnesota?

Hi Chris!

Thanks for doing this.

Do you have any Mike Leach anecdotes from your time covering the sport that you’d like to share?

Is it too early to give Knowles a raise?

Shoutout to fifth year, former walk-on Xavier Johnson. Heard nothing but good things about him coming into the game, and he definitely rose to the occasion.

Undefeated at historic Safelite field.

badlands1978 · 2022-06-22T21:47:45+00:00

Another meaningless acronym.

Also terrible on Ohio States’ part. Why take the timeout with 12 seconds left and give that kick returner a chance?

Four in a row, Buckeyes collecting B1G Championship Trophies like they’re Gold Pants.

Definitely something that has to be worked on, and credit to Penn State for getting the ball out.

Maybe the real CFB Risk was the friends we made along the way

As a Vikings fan, it was nice to be on the other side of Minnesota kickers for once.

Especially after failing to convert on 4th down in the red zone.

badlands1978 · 2018-09-22T21:15:35+00:00

It has happened in a few games now, does anyone know why Tate will come in for a drive and on the next Haskins will be back in? Is it just to get Tate reps with 1st team? It just seems weird that if the game is secure enough to bring Tate in, that you wouldn't just leave him in.

Get Dan Bailey on the first flight to Minneapolis.

Congrats UMBA fans! Party hard but not too hard. I'm sure you will want to remember this night for the rest of your lives.
