How is this different from when Coach JMcE left Bama for CSU, but came back to coach in NC game?
It is very similar. Most people were worried if it would be a distraction for us. However, we had an experienced QB and a veteran team. OSU QB will be starting his 2nd game and no one on the OSU team has played a game with the stakes this high. It may not affect their play but it will be a distraction IMO.
