I have seen MSU play and they are as slow as turtles on offense. Their defense may be overrated since it is a Big Ten defense. I like MSU but I think Ohio State is just to quick for them. Any observations?



 :popcorn2:

Here's an observation:  You're having a hard time with your picks this week.    :lol2:

But really I haven't watched OSU all year, barely watched MSU.

Exactly!!


 :lol2: :lol2: :lol2:

I have watched a little of MS this year. They have a good defense but the offense bores me to death. I switch channels and come back and they are up 14 pts. I have not seen anything impressive with MS except a good Big 10 defense but they keep winning.

I think OSU will be much quicker. I picked MS because defense trumps offense in most cases.

I think it is a toss up.  :dunno:

I OSU going to the NCG and FSU will whip them like a yard dog. JMO. RTR!

Does anybody know what channel this game is on?  I live in central Florida, and there are, literally, THREE channels showing the FSU-Duke game right now.   :eyeroll:

I'm getting mine on ABC in ATL.

Think of all the different camera angles you'll have! :lol2:

If a basketball game breaks out during the Acc Championship game
 I like Dukes chances

 :lol2:  I've got two ABC stations (one from Tampa and one from Orlando), and it's on both of those.  It's also on ESPN2 here.

It's on FOX, not ABC. Someone's been drinking too early.

MSU went for it on 4th down. They are playing to win. Good for them.


 :clap:

Very good.  Thank you, sir.  I wouldn't have thought of Fox.  I thought they only had contracts with the Big 12 the PAC whatever.

 :-[

Sorry kids made me lose my train of thought.

 :lol2:  Right there with you at times.

So far, MSU is giving Ohio State fits. Very interesting. Maybe if MSU wins, they will want to play Alabama in another bowl game.



 :eyeroll:

Seriously, if OSU loses they could be playing Alabama in a bowl game.



 :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

Duke playing FSU very tough in first half. FSU 7-0 with 7 minutes left in first half. I still expect a huge FSU win.



 :popcorn2:

Well MSU is up 17-0 so we need Duke to pull out the win. :tinfoil:

MSU  is stomping OSU in the 1st half 17-0.

OSU has a lot of weapons. This game is still a toss-up.


 :popcorn2:

A great big humongous hold by OSU sprung B Miller for a huge gain that led to a TD. 17-7 MSU. Getting a little tired of piss poor officiating.

I think Bama will be getting some team that had, "We want Bama" signs.  Either Ohio State or Oregon, since Ok St Lost.

It almost makes me sick to have to pull for OSU, but with Duke going down in flames now, that's the lesser of two evils.  I wouldn't even want the barn to be in the BCSNCG game even if they got destroyed by FSU, because the month between now and then would be almost insufferable.

It's looks like MSU has gotten a case of the chokes.  From 17-0 to 17-17, with Braxton Miller being almost the entire OSU offense, running the ball and MSU not covering the QB run.  And now MSU throws an INT in their own territory.

This OSU team is very overrated and will get stomped by a good team

Yep, their "Big Ten speed" will catch up to them against the SEC, FSU, or Pac 12.

Temporary thread hijack: The basketball team lost by 2 points at USF tonight.  Just thought this might be the easiest way for some here to find out how that game went.  /hijack

MSU 27  OSU 24
FSU 1 bazillion  (or might as well be)  Duke 7

SIGH.....

Starting to look like FSU/Aubarn for BCSCG.

MSU 34 OSU 24, Under 2 minutes left

Yep, and maybe Bama v. Ohio State in the Sugar Bowl?

Yep, that's what I think.

 :clap:

Stanford/Michigan State   Rose Bowl
FSU/Aubarn   BCSNC Game
Alabama/Ohio State   Sugar Bowl

Pretty fantastic bowl line-up if it happens.



 :popcorn2:

CBS is projecting Oklahoma.  We owe them payback.

Oh brother. My worst nightmare is coming true. The barn in the BCS NC again.  :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm:

+1 
I'm glad I'm not living in Alabama right now, but it's bad enough being Facebook friends with some barn fans.  May have to clean up the friends list sometime soon.   :D

ESPN thinking we get either Oklahoma or Oregon.

Orange Bowl should grab Ohio State v. Clemson.

Did they say why? Oklahoma has 2 losses. Where would Ohio State go?


 ???

I hope we play the Sooners.  Two schools with great tradition.

Does anybody know if Urbane's cardiologist is nearby for tonight???

It looks like the Orange Bowl picks before the Sugar, so they are projecting Clemson v. Ohio State in the Orange Bowl.  Clemson has the bowl tie-in from the ACC.

The Sugar Bowl gets SEC, so Bama to the Sugar Bowl.  Next best available ranked BCS team would be either Oklahoma or Oregon.  Probably Oregon, I think.  (Missouri, South Carolina, Baylor, Michigan State and Stanford all unavailable, either SEC or other bowl tie-in).

These are the projected BCS Standings:

1   Florida State   13-0   ACC
2   Auburn   12-1   SEC
3   Alabama   11-1   SEC
4   Michigan State   12-1   Big Ten
5   Stanford   11-2   Pac-12
6   Baylor   11-1   Big 12
7   Ohio State   12-1   Big Ten   
8   South Carolina   10-2   SEC   
9   Missouri   11-2   SEC   
10   Clemson   10-2   ACC   
11   Oregon   10-2   Pac-12   
12   Oklahoma   10-2   Big 12   
13   Oklahoma State   10-2   Big 12
14   Arizona State   10-3   Pac-12   
15   LSU   9-3   SEC   
16   Central Florida   11-1   American   

Looks about right except that I would put tOSU between Clemson and Oregon.

In the real world, tOSU is about as good as Central Florida.

I'm surprised UCF is still projected so low with only one loss in a tight 3-point game v. South Carolina.  They played South Carolina much closer than Clemson did.  They beat media darling Louisville and Penn State on the road.  But yeah, those were close wins, and they played no one else all season.
