Donovan Jackson is not a linebacker. Height and weight: Height 6′ 4″, Weight 320 lbs Current team: Ohio State Buckeyes football (#74 / Offensive lineman) And the Ducks have LB Jeffrey Bassa and CB Jabar Mohamed. Expected to be drafted along with our two starting DLs and edge rusher Jordan Burch.

There might be something to this D line determines everything mentality. Was Ohio State great at all three levels? Nope. I would be surprised if anyone can name their linebackers. But their D line was relentless. Particularly their edge players. They are the reason we scored one touchdown n the first half. And 21 points for the game.

But lest we forget. No Willie Taggart. No Mario Cristobal. And Willie did inherit a dumpster fire. Four wins the year before.FOUR.

Okay, so I was a bit confused by the "legend" tilte as well. So I looked him up. Here's what I found. "He remains Ohio State’s all-time leader in passing yards and the Big Ten’s all-time leader in passing and total touchdowns." So yeah maybe he is an Ohio St legend. Just not one to rest of college football.

In the article...the facts are: he did NOT ask for more money for himself. He asked for more money for staff and to entice better players. Mr. Sanders gets zero NIL money.

Okay, Travis Hunter suffered a lacerated liver from a late hit. He missed multiple games because of it. The person who caused his injury, a lacerated liver, was receiving DEATH THREATS from Colorado fans. Probably all adults. What did Travis do? Ignore the situation? Pour gasoline on the fire by commenting on his injury? Nope he took the dude bowling. Posted it on social media and told folks to leave the guy alone. Now if that does not show exemplary character I don't know what does. I prefer to actually look at what they do off the field.

Okay I will take a stab at this. If revenue sharing is based on sharing revenue from your specific sport than it might actually work. Men's tennis and golf make little to no money. Just as women's tennis and golf. At most universities football pays for itself and every other sport, except men's basketball at some schools. So, if there is no revenue there is nothing to share. So, the discrepancy is not about male and female. It is about generating or not generating revenue. I can't i imagine the business school being required to share donations with the history department. As for NIL. It stands for name, image and likeness. An athlete's name and image carries weight based on who they are. Based on ON3 one of the top 5 NIL valuations is a young lady who plays volleyball for LSU. You have seen her on commercials during football games. Her valuation is strictly based on her image. None of her teammates get anywhere near her valuation. This will be "interesting" to watch in the coming months and years.

With Ohio St, been there done that. Plus can you imagine the chaos that loosing in the first round would cause for Day and the fanbase. Much see t.v. Also would love to send the same message to the SEC as we sent to the BIG We are here. Go Ducks

As Dan Lanning said. Coaches will leave for the RIGHT opportunity. One where they can be successful. Clearly this opportunity was not considered a step up by Ra'Shaad.

Can only read if you are a subscriber to the Washington Post. Nevermind. Thnks for the cut and paste

Here's mine. And for those in the previous conversation. You can switch Boose St and Arizona St. And I wouldn't be mad. Just don't think the win today moves them from 16 ranking to 10. And Boise St was already at 10 in rankings. Not seeding due to automatic champion bids. A conversation for another thread. 1.Oregon 2. Georgia SEC champ and beat previous #2 for second time 3. Boise St 4. Arizona St 5. Notre Dame 6. Ohio St 7. Penn St 8. Texas 9. Tennessee 10. Indiana 11. Clemson 12. SMU This seeding has no teams playing a team they played during the season in the first round. How would you seed it different and why?

The odds have nothing to do with how Vegas or the betting sites think will win. Or by how much The odds are set SOLEY to make sure money is evenly distributed between both sides.

Miami was a home game. Georgia an away game. I know not far away. But still hostile environment. And GT dominated most of that game. Missed 25 yard field goal and late fumble away from securing that win.

Oregon 42-14 2 TO 4 Sacks 280 passing yards

The Heisman is given to the best football player in the country. Not the one who people feel is least arrogant. There is no denying Travis Hunter is the best player in college football. He is a finalsit for the the Biletnikoff, for the best wide receiver and the Bednarik Award, given to the best defensive player. Many of his posses are done with his teammates. So the I over team thing seems completely personal. Thankfully outside perception of a person carries little weight when it comes to awards and draft selection. Here is wishing Travis Hunter nothing but success in the next game and in his NFL career

Indiana 31-28 0 TO 2 Sacks 212 passing yards

I consistently here about Deion Sanders ego. It feels like it comes from his playing years over three decades ago. And there is not enough space here to debate what that exactly was then. But now if anyone has taken the time to watch his entire press conference and not just the sound bites. Which I have many times. There is no ego. He calls all the reporters mam and sir even though he is decades older than them. He reads the scholastic achievementa of his players before getting into their on field success. I know many will point to his " I am bringing my Louis Vuitton luggage" or "We're keeping receipts" comments. But after Cignetti's "I win Google me" we hear nothing but praise. Not ONE person said OMG check out that mans ego. Find one comment Deion has said that is more egotistical.

Guess Mr. Sanders is a better coach than people gave him credit for. O-line still has issues. But Shedeur is the best quarterback in college football. No slight to Dillon As for Utah they are literally playing their fourth string QB. Don't know how our season would be going doing the same. Yeah Dilly has definitely turned that program around. And The Big 12 will only get one team in. The question is will the Big 12 champ or Boise St get the first round bye.

Sounds to me like Kirby was describing what can happen in any football game. The question is what are you going to do about it. And if you can't figure out how to come back and win. You are probably not good enough to win a national championship. It wasn't that they lost to Ole Miss. It's how bad they looked doing it. And no watching film doesn't give you a perfect idea of how teams look in person. But A. They watch a lot of games. And B they all have been around football for many years. And have been up close and personal with the teams. Stop whining Kirby and win. If Georgia lost yesterday they would be below .500 against top 25 teams. Not a recipe for winning champions.

Oregon 38-10 2 turnovers 4 sacks 275 pass yards

I am curious where you got your SOS. Because I would like to know their metrics. Yesterday I spent way too much time looking at various strength of schedule metrics. One major issue is if they update weekly or are from the beliefs at the beginning of the year. Most I looked at gave ni reasoning to how they got there. Georgia had a range of 1 to 23. Indiana 56 to 100. And from what I have read Georgia had a SOS of 100 when the first rankings came out last year. And nobody whined because it was Georgia. I have not been able to verify their SOS from last year though.

Here's an article saying what we in the PAC-12 ( may it RIP) have been saying for years. Cannibalization is a real thing. SEC Bias: CFP rankings committee rewards SEC for things others are punished over FANSIDED.COM

Interesting comment by Dan. I hears folks talking on a sports radio show about coaches that "help out their fans". They brought up Nick Saban as one. Maybe Dan has taken the same approach, when appropriate.
