Fucking get over yourself. Everybody knows Florida sucks and no one is denying it. What's your signature win?
God damn, you nead objectivity in your life.
 
yeah axl who you trying to convince bro, nobody here is buying tOSU until they beat Bama / FSU

end of story
 
And also the recruiting vacuum that is left after FSU and Alabama deplete the 4 and 5 star HS recruits.

There is no recruiting vacuum. There are plenty enough recruits to go spread among the major programs. Plus a ton of less heralded guys that will break out all over the nation, at both major programs with a championship history and the likes of Vanderbilt.


While no doubt it helps to win head to head battles against other programs for the most highly recruited and highly publicized players in the nation, nabbing 5 star recruits doesn't guarantee anything. At all. There are plenty of programs out there that have picked up "top 5" class after "top 5" class, year after year, and have nothing to show for it. There are plenty of examples of programs that ended up with classes that recruiting services ranked very low, only to turn out to be some of the strongest in the nation.


That's because it all comes down to how good a particular coach is at evaluating and developing talent.


Also, recruiting services tend to give anybody Bama recruits a fairly significant bump. It was ridiculous what some of these services did to Urban Meyer's classes when he was back at Florida.

It's because most of the people who run these services know absolutely jack shit about high school football, or football in general. The staff at these websites boost the rankings of players who go to play under coaches like Nick Saban or Urban Meyer because they know that these guys are some of the best in the business at what they do, and that if they move these kids up, they will look good later when people are reviewing just how accurate their rankings were that year.

They look at which schools and coaches are recruiting a player, how many scholarship offers a kid has and which schools are offering, all sorts of combine numbers which tend to be wildly inaccurate, and maybe a 5 minute highlight tape if they are up to it.

Basically, the ability to win head to head battles in recruiting is important, but the rankings posted on recruiting services do not nearly approximate the rankings of these athletes given to them by college coaches. And even those aren't very likely to nearly approximate reality.
 
no getting over myself. I am a Buckeyes fan so seriously I am better than all of your teams. sorry, it's just how I was raised

I may be mistaken but doesnt GAS have a natty? Also muschamp and his entire program stinks on ice and it is no secret. tOSU may be handed a chance a spot in the game every year but with those weak schedules you will never contend and you know this.
0-10 in the BCS

it's so funny as to the extent tOSU is going to destory Michigan. it seems like Brady Hoke's years as a Michigan Head Coach are numbered, despite having a pretty good first year showing

also it's funny to be see the drastic change of perspective from older Buckeyes fans on the outcome of this rivalry game. back in the day, when the Big Ten was undoubtedly the best conference in the NCAA - the Buckeyes would usually win all of their games and be heading for the National Championship ONLY to be upset by an inferior UM team, in that last game of the season. so when I ask the older fags the common question around Columbus leading up this Rivalry Game of "hey, so how do you think the Buckeyes are gonna do against those fgts up North?" they will be all like "aww shucks, we SHOULD win, but you never know"

and then if you ask a Buckeyes fan of my generation on the outcome of the game they are all like "WE GONNA SMASH BRO HAHA MICHIGAN IS OUR BICHIGAN!" because my generation of Buckeye fans have really only seen the raping of the whore that is Ann Arbor

PS - SEC is overrated LOL. if Auburn beats Bama it will truly show just how overrated ya'll are, when the only premier team in your conference loses to a QB who can't even throw a football better than I can
 
Its all relative I was used to getting raped by FL in my generation. My point still stands there are tons of prof teams up north and not many in the south so we funnel more resources to college athletics. tSEC is any given saturday and the ratings are there to prove it.
 
you funnel more resources? I could see your point if you were talking to a man from the North-East. but I live in Ohio, son. this State lives and breathes football, all the way from high school (the success of Ohio high school football has alredy been established by more ppl than me), to college (not even mentioning tOSU - look at half of the teams in the MAC and I even played on a roster for a bad ass Division 3 team), to NFL (two NFL teams in this State)

just because the South can't support the market with enough fans and financial support for an NFL owner to want to move his team and money there, ain't my fault

football may not have been invented in Ohio, but it surely was perfected here. Canton, Ohio - the pro football Hall of Fame, I'm looking North by North-East in your direction

most people here say football, God, and family - in that order
 
Right well maybe columbus is the exception to the rule. Every other team in your conference could care less about CFB. Heck the UK games I went to this year the stands were filled to the brim and they knew they were going to get clown stomped before hand.
 
man I'm a veritable professional when it comes to taking shit from Kenickie <3

and all you fuckers from the South or outside the State of Ohio (in this thread)

Happy Turkey Day ya'll - life would be boring without football and all of you fucks to argue about said football with
 
I agree football transcends those that cant compose themselves online and it is gr8t to talk about even though my team will be mediocre for a indefinite amount of time just like yours. I need a regime change yall need a conference change but oh well.
 
well idk are we talking pure football ability or bicep circumference?

david boston lol, havent even thought about that guy since he seemingly dissappeared from the nfl overnight

lol holy shit that goes way back. I remember when he signed with the Dolphins and only appeared in like two games the whole season.


He was a total prick and everyone hated him, IIRC. I miss when NFL players used to have personalities, though.


I mean with Ray Lewis (most people liked him), Terell Owens (most people disliked him), and Chad Johnson (loved or hated) all retired, who in the NFL has anything interesting to say anymore? It's become a race to the most generic possible personality so that being different doesn't end up making you miss out on some contract money down the line.
 
yeah it really is pretty lame anymore. No Fun League as they say

TO used to talk shit on ray lewis before games and actually still show up over the middle, that one season was seriously the most fun Ive had watching football back in 04
