Bummer. Tough but expected given history. My moniker was JoePa on the old forum so you know my allegiance. I was a freshman when we won our last national championship. Good luck to Notre Dame.

I get it. Grew up just east of there on Rte 45 , so blue and white was kind of a secondary color pallet
 
Without the #$%^^ pass down the middle ----any pass for that fact, OT would have been interesting. Oh well, back to College Wrestling where Penn State is favorite for another NCAA Championship!! Go Lions!
 
What a way to lose a game: you're 1st and goal on the one, screw around and end up 4th & goal on the eight and some idiot play caller opts for a play that simply ignores one of Ohio States best defensive players. Texas deserves to lose. Blame the playcaller. Sheesch....

Reminds me of the Seahawks about 10 years ago.

For me, the brutal play call was the sissy, we know we can't beat you up the middle jet sweep on second down in that same series. I'm no coach or expert, but what the hell is the sense in starting a running play 8 yards back of the goal line when starting it at the 2 got you next to nothing? You could tell as soon as Ewers threw the pitch it was going to be a huge loss.

That call and the defensive call where Ohio State scored the late 2nd quarter touchdown on a screen pass were brutal. That said, Sark's crew made a lot of good calls that kept them in the game. In the end, they just got beat by a better team.

The championship game matchup makes me want to vomit, but both teams earned their way there.
 
Early line is Ohio State -9.5.

I’ll go back to the greatest quote I can attribute to football play. It’s not who your playing but when your playing them Coach Chuck Knox.


These teams would love to play the ND team that lost to Northern Illinois team. But that was week 2 or 3 at beginning of season. Lots of growth since then. These are not the same cats.
These are the rewards of good coaching … and now they are there. National championship game. Earned in every aspect. Love it !!!

No one can deny their presence for national championship !!!!! But damn Ohio state is formidable. Hope for a good game and not a blow out.

Well got all the games so far, but frankly it was pretty easy pickings...especially in the early rounds.

Probably time for Ryan Day to go full Ryan Day.
