U of W first in. Who all you guys rooting for today? Bama fans here? Michigan looks legit. I haven’t watched any Georgia games this year but hoping for good...

Ima damn jinx.🤬

It’s over now Rex. How about a strip and he scores a touchdown 😚

ode

😳....wow what a play!

darpar

What a pathetic way to lose,1st and goal from the 1yd. line!🤬

colej

darpar

Pretty good defense 😇

ode

Terrible 2nd down call by Sarkisian, terrible!

rsvman2

ode Going wide left there was a huge error. Faking wide left and going to the right MIGHT have worked, but probably keeping it simple would have been the best idea.

ode

ND / Ohio St. should be good!

End of both games their QB's Allar and Ewers cost their teams the game.

professor

scotts33
Yup!
It’s so hard, as a spectator, with replay and all, to tell which QB can/will rise to the occasion or choke.

The difference between tonight and tomorrow.

rsvman2

scotts33 Kinda disagree. The issue for Texas on the series that lost them the game was play calling and blocking as much or more than it was a QB error.

professor

azgreg OSU by double digits.

Yeah but a great game to watch!

professor
Much closer than I thought it would be.

scotts33

professor up!

Agreed. Just me but I do not see either successful at the next level.

Howard has his moments like wow this guy is sharp. He’s throwing right at his target then the pressure gets to him.

He ran for his life half the game but for the most part I’m pleased with his performance.

ode

rsvman2 yeah. 2nd and goal from inside the 2 and coach calls a pitch to the short side of the field that gets blown up for a 7 yard loss. Terrible play call and put his team in a bad position.

professor

Still, a great game!

So, you can't run downhill on both sides of the ball controlled by DL. That's why Sarkisian called the pitch to the short side. A play he saw as what they didn't expect to see coming. Buckeyes have speed at all positions. You gotta try something all 4 QB's in the CFP are just average QB talent as are majority of QB's in college football. Ewers can't even hit an out with no pressure. Ewers had multiple chances into the end zone with the pass interference calls. Put Arch Manning in? High echelon QB's are making $3m -$4m NIL money so expectation should be real. Even though they maybe young Ewers is 22 you gotta make the plays when the game is on the line. The right tackle on Texas did an ole block on Sawyer and that's also why they didn't run right on the pitch. There is more than we know on play calls and player ability. I say Allar and Ewers choked. Texas has blown the CFP 2x in 2 years. Some say Ewers doesn't elevate anyone. He got them a long ways but can't make the big one. He's gone. Most can say the same can't win the big one. James Franklin can step up and admit that also. Good exciting games both semi-final games.

scotts33 I say Allar and Ewers choked.

I’ve watched Allar all year and I’d call it heroic overconfidence that led to the INT. JMO.

ode

scotts33 short of fumbling or an Int, it was the worst possible case scenario. Play action would have been better, and then test fate on 3rd and 4th, hell even a QB sneak! you are spot on re Ewers he has some touch but his throw motion/delivery is wonky leading to some issues. Allar has more upside and I could see him possibly having a chance at the next level but he needs so much work. That throw against the grain/body for the int was a bad decision. Despite all that, I would take any of these guys over the trash that Wisco has had to endure in recent years🙃

I believe your entire assessment is spot on! Great review. Quite frankly, if Pitt were to develop a better offensive line, they've got a QB with legitimate talent. Next year, maybe. Transfer portal be damned.

Par4QC Gawd.....I hate Ohio State!! Always have, because of Woody.

One of my main reasons for loving them!! Woody was a GREAT MAN!!!

scotts33

ode hell even a QB sneak!

Arch Manning but Buckeyes are gonna be ready for that. The first down that Manning did make earlier in the game he ran wide. Multiple shots into the end zone with pass interference penalties and couldn't get it done. He's not NFL caliber neither is Allar. They are 6th round and down draft picks at best. This years QB class is a down year for the NFL but both can ride the bench to learn the craft neither has the arm strength of a ie Jordan Love who per-usual rode the bench and learned. They both should hit the transfer portal for another $3m - $5mil pay day. Compare them to Cam Ward night and day.

Eguller I’ve watched Allar all year and I’d call it heroic overconfidence that led to the INT. JMO.

Allar is quoted as saying "I should have thrown it away".
