The FS1 announcer is starting to make fun of the fact that he has to plug OSU-UM after every commercial break, by overselling it more and more, and I'm here for it.

Most recently he said, "you better find a dark room to isolate yourself in to watch the most important event of your life"
I actually think it's Petros, who I've always disliked

I think it was....and hey, it's not like Michigan-OSU games can be as important or big as USC-UCLA games....now those games are really big events.

I've watched them vs Stanford, little bit vs Wazzu, and been watching this Utah game...and I know it was super early in the year- but the game was in Columbus- and I still can't figure out how Ohio State lost to this Oregon team. It bottles the mind.

They're 20 year olds.  None of it makes sense.

I think the Utes and Ducks split their two game series, and so will Oklahoma and OSU2 split theirs.

Then Bama loses to Georgia, and not only does Cincinnati get into the playoffs, but also Notre Dame.
Ohio State's best shot against Georgia is for Bama to lose the SECCG and drop to #4 with tOSU and Cincy at #2 & 3.

That way the Buckeyes' semi-final is an easy tune-up game while Georgia is stuck playing a tough game against a legitimate opponent.

Damn. 35-7. This is an ass-whoopin', and Utah's last series was nothing but really basic stuff. 

Also, the biggest crowd ever at Salt Lake Olympic Stadium.

yeah, it's been complete and utter domination by Utah. They have been bitch-slapping Oregon up and down the field for 3 QTRs.

Utah just returned a punt for a TD with 0 seconds left on the clock.

28-0 at the half. Oregon getting absolutely beat down this first half.
almost as bad as giving up a TD on the opening kickoff

and with 20 years of seasoning, if they were 40 year olds, none of it would make sense

Alabama has tied FSU with longest streak for consecutive 10 win seasons (14 straight).

Don’t forget that Ohio State has the second youngest team in division one football in terms of returning production, especially on defense.

their “room for improvement“ was way bigger than most.

Ducks go down 38-7 at the hands of the Utes. What a total and complete asswhooping.
