    2020 MLB thread

    I would be on board with the shortened season plan if it did not include expanded playoffs. A 14 team playoff makes a 162 game season redundant. MLB season will turn into the NBA season, where no one cares about results because any team with talent automatically makes the playoffs.
  2. Vic Mackey calling people morons. That's rich.
  3. Maybe I am. Taking Bama -13 means you're betting Bama will win by more than 13 pts, does it not?
  4. Barring a Field's injury you're gonna regret Bama -13.
  5. You might have a point if you left Michigan out of it.
  6. How Fields manages his injury will be important. Fields not being able to run the ball would shelve an entire aspect of Ohio State's offense.
  7. Dabo is gonna start dropping bags for o-lineman after this game.
  8. What retard thinks that's not a fumble? He literally dropped the ball and has his hand on top of it.
  9. You beat me to it. But Teague is out because of injury. I actually think Miyan Williams will be an improvement. Teague was terrible against Clemson after Dobbins was injured in last year's game.
  10. LG Harry Miller, RB Master Teague, DE Zach Harrison, and DE Tyler Friday out for Ohio State. Miller is only starter, but Harrison and Friday are good rotational players. That will impact Ohio St's DL depth as the game wears on.
  11. Here's some things to look out for tonight: 1. Expect Ohio St to aggressively attack Clemson downfield in the first half. Clemson safety Nolan Turner will miss the first half because of targeting against ND. Turner is Clemson's most experienced DB and the field general of Clemson's secondary. Expect Ohio State to try to isolate Turner's replacement in coverage with Garrett Wilson and Chris Olave. 2. Watch Clemson WRs vs. Ohio St DBs if you want an early indication of who will win this game. Both units have dropped off since last year. Clemson lost Tee Higgins and Justyn Ross. Ohio St lost Okudah, Damon Arnette and Jordan Fuller. Since Ohio St's front 7 is so good, Clemson will have to win in the passing game in order to open up the rest of the offense. 3. Clemson's secondary is great on paper. But in addition to missing Turner in the first half, they are missing AJ Terrell, Isaiah Simmons, and Tanner Muse from last year's secondary. Clemson also did not play the only other elite passsing attack in the ACC, North Carolina. Whether Clemson's secondary is as good as their stats suggest is an open question.
  12. Browns have plenty enough reason to hate the Raiders after last night.
  13. It was the first drive. They were in the red zone, receiver was wide open but Colt's throw took so long to get there Karl Joseph had time to close on the receiver and break it up. Don't know if it was Golden Tate, I believe it was a TE.
  14. He has a noodle arm and cost the Giants a TD because of it.
  15. Indiana is #7 in the AP poll and their bowl game is a 4-5 Ole Miss team. Most Indiana fans want to cancel the bowl and play Purdue instead.
  16. I think it will stay there. I'm surprised it wasn't greater based off how yesterday played out.
  17. I don't think so. Clemson doesn't have the wide receivers they usually do and their defense is not special. The only position group where I'd say Clemson has a clear advantage is QB, and that's not that big of an advantage because Mac Jones is really good.
  18. There is no comparison in the national draw between ND and A&M. The CFP already rejected delaying the playoff because they don't want to compete with NFL playoffs for ratings. They are not going to turn down a blue blood matchup with national appeal for a faux SEC team that has no appeal outside of Texas.
  19. You're forgetting that A&M-Bama would be a rematch of a 30 pt blowout. Do you think the four letter network is going to let ND-Bama be turned down for blowout rematch?
  20. Incredible pick
  21. The Browns-Titans game was cancelled so CBS decided to replay last night's Alabama-LSU game in the 1pm NFL slot.
  22. He's ridiculously talented but the skill set has not caught up to the body. CBs can take awhile to develop. Okudah was not great until the Rose Bowl of his sophomore year. From that game onward he was the best DB in CFB.
  23. Inb4 Ohio St gets knocked out of the Big Ten championship because of Covid but still makes the playoffs with a 5-0 record over Aggy. Without a modicum of irony they will say that it's bullshit that Ohio State did not make the Big Ten championship and still made the playoffs.
  24. That would imply that people thought they were great, which no one did. This is also a year where Notre Dame gave up 450 passing yards to a Clemson true freshman QB and Alabama gave up 600 yards of offense to freaking Ole Miss. I'll take Penix, Fryfogle et al over Matt Corral or DJ Uiagalelei and their receivers, so Ohio St's secondary is playing on par with the other top teams.
  25. You're not considering that Indiana's defense is much better than Bama's
