Now the Michigan fans have some hope.
The last four games on their schedule will be no cakewalk and they will not go undefeated.

I think I'm safe to post my feelings here… The pitchforks came out on an OSU board (some rabid fans, we are)…
Braxton is an amazing athlete. He has made some amazing plays. He has some amazing stats.. blah blah blah.
And yet, I was so tired of watching him immediately scramble out of the pocket if he didn't have a receiver in the first 3 seconds. I was so tired of him not playing with his head, but instead trying to be a hero. Yea, it was amazing when it worked, but it sucked when it didn't. It sucked when his play making abilities had him running back and forth for a loss of downs. It sucked when it resulted in him trying to find a shoestring size hole to fit in, while the defenders saw one thing, the ball, loosely being held in his throwing hand… It sucked when he defeated himself and imploded, when he self sabotaged his own efforts. He's not cool under pressure.
Time to cultivate some new blood, IMHO.

I did not enjoy watching him play either.
The thing about college football is that the next stars are already on the roster, their schedule will be kicked up a year but I think the Buckeyes will do just fine.

BTW, I think your Bulldogs will beat us between the hedges in a few weeks.
Unlike OSU, Clemson schedules TWO top SEC teams each year for their out of conference games.
Yep, and I respect the Tigers for that....they don't back away from anybody, but the SEC games definitely make them, or anybody, hurt.....Facing any SEC team is tough (make that physically brutal), and it requires a couple of weeks to recover, but that's what makes college football so great.
Sometimes I wonder how the SEC schools even survive the season, playing each other week after week..... but it's what has made them the greatest conference, I think. They have to be ready in every conceivable way, and they know it....no excuses.
So glad to see OUR rivalry resume, but the Dawgs are like the Falcons.....real heartbreakers, so I'm not overly optimistic. I've been so disgusted that after 35 years of club-level season tickets, I've given them up. It was like inserting a dagger into my own heart, but it was time.
(definitely harder than a knife into a MIL's eyes, btw....lol)
It helped that my daughter graduated and began dental school, tho----I knew we wouldn't be going to all the games anymore anyway. Plus, it freed up our weekends and we're having a blast now traveling and watching games on TV from all sorts of great Fall destinations. But for a long, long, long time, we were there between the hedges every home game. Great memories. Time to move on.
Not so sure I'll want to watch the opener----UGA-Clemson game-----(even tho I will)......I'm not "feeling it" yet. Could be a long evening. Even though most of our guys are out of jail now :ignore:, many are young and inexperienced. I'll bet Clemson goes for a bomb on the first play from scrimmage, just to say "We're here". We'll see. Good luck...(WE'LL sure need it.)
BTW, what do you get when you mix red and orange?

My niece whom we're very close with (we just took her to Wimbledon, London and Paris this summer) is now a freshman at UGA.
Anyway, I don't get all that emotional about college football anymore. I still follow them and root for them, but I'm now really into following the Seahawks in the NFL. We lived in Seattle for 7 years and I was a season ticket holder for 4 years there from 1999-2003. My wife and I are actually going there for a weekend to see them play Denver in about a month.

college ball is always cyclical....it wasnt all that long ago that clemson was a bottom feeder in the ACC for football purposes...and that playing miami and florida each year ensured FSU had a solid out of conference schedule year after year.
my how things have changed!
Very curious to see how the debates go at seasons end on who the final 4 should be as all the talk now is how the selection committee doesn't have to use the polls to decide which 4 should play for the title.

The money whores (Slive, Delany, etc) and ESPN are well on their way to ruining college football. If it continues on it's current path, football should completely disassociate from universities and go a farm system, like baseball.
True, I'm concerned about this also. I think college football and basketball could be in for some changes. I guess if you're a fan of the big conferences it won't matter a whole lot. But, the mid-conference schools are going to get squeezed.
It will suck for all fans who don't just want to watch a bunch of paid thugs play "college" football.
