Gotta admit, the offensive stats are pretty embarrassing.
3 points.
3 INTs.
Only 4.1 yards per play.
Just 2.3 yards per rush.
Wait, sorry, those are the numbers from Alabama's 28-3 loss to Oklahoma.

Honestly, this worked out for all involved.
Indiana got to cap a historic season by actually playing in the first 12-team playoff.
And a bunch of SEC teams got to claim victory in a hypothetical matchup that will never be played, which is their favorite thing to do anyway.

“I think this era of player just doesn’t love football” by Kirk Herbstreit this morning is a typical old guard insult.
A new generation gains knowledge and power, and as a result the old guard questions its heart.
I think this era of analyst just doesn’t love football players.

SEC using overrated preseason teams as proof of strength. It’s a never-ending loop of delusion.
LSU, Oklahoma, Florida and Mississippi State all have more Top 25 teams on their schedule (7) than Penn State (3) & Indiana (3) play combined (6).
Another reason why everyone laughed at Big 10 when they tried to flex the about the “toughness” of their 9 game conference schedule

Dwayne Haskins, a rare Buckeye:
He did it with a sparkle and a smile, with his arms open wide. He brought everyone else along on his ride. And you just wanted everyone to know how special that journey was, and how rare Haskins was.
Because he knew it.

Dwayne Haskins was a transformational, aspirational, unforgettable Buckeye. His self-confidence was a joy to be around. He helped change the foundation of Ohio State football. He lived his Buckeye dream. And he could sling it. What a terrible loss.

If you make the argument $ is the reason the Big Ten is allowing Ohio State to play in the title game, without noting OSU is the only undefeated team, won the head-to-head vs. the 2nd-place team, and would be in if it lost this week, you are either cynically disingenuous or dense

NCAA's ruling on Michigan:
1. They did it.
2. Would have been a 2-year postseason ban and loss of 8 scholarships in the old days. In this era, they don't get those penalties and instead are financially penalized for the equivalent of that.

A QB who had 5 TDs, 8 INTs and a passer rating of 66.7 through 5 games in his 2nd year as a starter, when his team was 2-3 in 1993.
In case you're wondering about a current QB who has 4 TDs, 8 INTs and a passer rating of 68.5 in his 2nd year as a starter, as his team is 2-3.
Happy Birthday No. 50, @BrettFavre. What a privilege it was to cover you, starting at the Senior Bowl when I was advised by a GM to introduce myself to the scruffy kid with the mischievous look from @SouthernMiss. Here's a wish for much happiness and many more birthdays!

So Ohio State would have had 10 seconds instead of 6 seconds on the final play and all things being equal, enough time for Will Howard to get down and a FG to be attempted.

The thing about this offense we think is dead -- Browns blocked Aaron Donald, got Jarvis Landry open and had a QB stand in and rip a middle of the field throw for a 27-yard gain on 3rd-and-15 in the final 2 minutes to keep hope alive against a Super Bowl team. Upside still there
