  1. as the Horns die off and the college game is weakened by early entrants and bowl sit - outs, I am beginning to like the NFL much more than in the past 25 years.  The speed, the skill level are something to behold. So much intense Xs and Os, it's 5 D chess compared to college. I'm attraced to the new stars - Lamar Jackson, Mahomes, Garrapolo and the old GOATs Brady and Rodgers. It's good drama.

    Until proven wrong this is what I think every time an OU receiver who has killed us leaves

    strange fact, Texas beat OU in 2018 when they had CD Lamb and Marquise Hollywood Brown each getting 100 yards.. and a QB named Kyler Murray.

  3. a medical question -- the news keep saying his pancreatic cancer was discovered during a routine examination.   Is this via a blood test?  Dumb question -- if blood tests can detect then why not detected earlier?

    LSU is going to blowout Clemson.  Everyone wants this game to be close or a shootout but LSU is simply on another level this season and they’ve gotten better with every new challenge. 

    Clemson is a good team and they’ve earned a right to be there but this isn’t going to be a close game.  

    Texas scored a bunch on LSU, Clemson will do the same.  Look out for Etienne, the difference maker.

    Ohio State was obviously the better team. But a combination of injuries, questionable calls, and bad luck allowed Clemson to slip by.

    true, they didn't execute perfectly at key moments - the 2 Dobbins drops in the redzone/endzone, 2 INTs, roughing the kicker.  TOSU outgained Clemson 516-417 and had 28 first downs to 21.  Dobbins being out for 3 or 4 series meant they didn't move the ball at all.  JK Dobbins is their most important player and he could have played even better, which would have assured them a victory. I'd say if they played 10 times, Ohio State wins 6.

  6. IMO, reasons tOSU lost, in no particular order of importance:

    - Chase Young was contained very well. No signature monster play(s)

    - Dobbins injured and out for a few series, stopped the Buck offense

    - Dobbins 1 or 2 key drops

    - Bad call on that non fumble for TD

    - DB Wade out , ejected
