Some believe the HC is above the President on the food chain. If the guy wants to coach, he is going to coach. He is a coach. Those guys always get the itch back unless they failed and lost it.

I love stories like this.

I get what you are all saying and it made sense last year. However, he is no longer new to Akron.

Since nobody else has said it yet and this is the Zips board, I will say it. Why in the hell do they have to start the column with "Former OSU coach"? If they want to do that, he was also former YSU coach and AD. He was also former UA assistant. Good grief Akron. Do they really think they need to add that to make him more important?

Come on now. You can outbid the tide.

Scary. Huh?

The only sad part of that video was seeing the empty stadium so much.

I bet a lot of schools are in or are heading in the same direction.

No D Hand?

How does the MAC play favorites?

QFT.

Don't you feel that to push an agenda you need to be bringing them up yourself? I don't ever recall anyone starting a Pro OSU thread here. But I sure remember a lot of anti-OSU threads. Then the babies get upset when they are called out. LOL. And, of course, we can never let facts get in the way of a good OSU hate fest. LOL. Like I have said before, it's amusing seeing this unfold. People don't know how foolish they make themselves look.

Booker has great measurable and, like someone said, looks good in the uniform. However, I honestly think Newman will be a better college player. Much more physical and instinctive.

I like Dallas. The only problem is I live in Georgia.

You could be stuck in Dallas with an ice storm.

But that still doesn't mean the 2 best teams are playing. It just proves which is best of those 2 teams Somewhat.

Good point. Except it is proven on the court or field. Just being appointed to play in the game is not much better than when the AP and UPI just said this team is #1. You could use your argument for the NBA, NFL and MLB too. At least it's decided on the field.

Like I said earlier somewhere in the thread. The BCS is a very flawed system. I am not sure how many times the 2 best teams at the end of the season actually were the 2 teams that played for the championship. Like I said, 4 teams is better than what we have now, but 8 teams would be better.

Some of us are fans of both. Their is nothing wrong with that IMHO. Well, except at this site.

Their were also no other undefeated at the time. Nice try. I'm not really sure what Meyer or OSU has to do with this anyway. Oh yea, I forgot "the obsession with OSU" LOL. I notice you ignore what Nick Saban said after that. You know, if you don't win your conference, you shouldn't be in the NCG. Then the next year he didn't win it and lobbied to be in the game because he was in the secheats.

Never want your rival to be good. Never.

True dat. Every school gets restless when they don't get a walkon.

Well said. Too bad it will fall on deaf ears. Some people just need a boogie man to hate and blame everything on. It makes them feel good about themselves. The obsession over OSU with a few fans is embarrassing and makes them look like fools. Unfortunately, they are too foolish to see it. This is an Akron site. It's pretty sad that the largest threads are usually threads bashing others. We have a rivalry board, smack board, etc. Too bad the mods don't enforce their own rules.

The problem is that many times the best team doesn't play for the NC. If you lose, it depends when you lose. If you lose early you can move back up, if you lose late, you are screwed. Unless you are Bama that is. Everyone was all over Baylor as being so great and then Okie State wiped them out. People think Auburn must be great because they beat Bama. Maybe Bama isn't that good or maybe Auburn played the game of their life that night. Look at 2006. OSU and UM were #1 and #2. OSU beat UM 42-39. Then OSU went on to get smoked in the NCG and UM went and got smoked in their bowl game. ND got destroyed last year and they normally play a tougher schedule. Rankings are more about perception than reality. A 4 team playoff is better than what we have now, but I think we need a minimum of 8 teams to get a real feel for it.
