Ohio State vs Tennessee is gonna be a GAME! Anyone got an AirBnb? Looking at flying in for the game. I have one in Tennessee (Pigeon Forge) that I can trade with or I can just go direct and pay direct to save fees. 3 to 4 people, no pets. Friday to Sunday/Monday.

Just bought my tickets. What a hell of a row we have to get to the Championship. Tennessee, Oregon, Texas, Penn State/Georgia/Notre Dame....gonna be a gauntlet

Isn't the game in Columbus?

It is in Columbus.

Correct, the game is in Columbus. I have my tickets. Looking for a place to stay nearby. Would love to give my money to one of us instead of a random.

I have a cabin in Pigeon Forge...willing to trade time or happy to just book direct and save fees from airbnb /vrbo.

Nice to see your post bro

this will be a good game. Tennessee is a legit team and had earlier been on track to be a top 3-4 team in the country

I agree. They were really good and lost a close one that could have gone either way. They would have been fighting for the bye. Huepel has them on a good track. Their run defense is really good, I see them being vulnerable to the pass though. Smith and Ebuka should have a field date.

Tell Kelly. Before the game. Disgusted with the game he called (or failed to call) in loss. Go, Buckeyes!

Happy Birthday, Bard!

Thanks!

Tennessee won’t pose a challenge to the Buckeyes. Oregon is the big one.

I'm not saying Tennessee will pose a problem. But if Michigan posed that much of a problem so can Tennessee.......................

According to USA Today Network, Day has a 4-6 record against teams ranked in the AP top 5. That was aided by wins against Penn State and Indiana. Before then, he was 2-6. When you get to teams in the top 10, it improves to 10-8.

Day has just one win in the College Football Playoff as a head coach and has been three times since taking over.

I'm not sure this OSU team would fight it's way out of a wet paper bag at this point. Has the talent that it could, but it isn't a given.

If anybody is interested, there are a LOT of tickets still available at very reasonable prices on the reseller sites. They are in the 100-150 range where last week they were selling for more than twice that.

And local stations here in Nashville are reporting that Tennessee fans have been buying them up like crazy. As much as one would think this crowd would be a sea of scarlet and gray that may not turn out to be the case. I think Tennessee fans will represent.

A lot of the Tennessee fans thought they were getting over because they cracked the STH code for early purchases.....they paid full price. As of last night, there were thousands still available.

I can only show you what's being reported...............

Third party ticket sellers say, yes, Tennessee fans are buying up resale tickets faster than Ohio State

Report: 42% of Tennessee-Ohio State tickets sold on SeatGeek have gone to Tennessee residents

Vols takeover? Tennessee residents buy 42% of resold Ohio State game tickets

We could see a lot more Tennessee orange when the Vols visit Ohio State in the first round of the College Football Playoff, based on what we know from the ticket markets.

All of these sources are reporting about third party sales.

osu IS DOWN EARLY IT WILL BE VERU UGLY

I hope the other playoff games are better than this Indiana/ND snoozefest.

I agree. I was kind of hoping Indiana had something, but wasn't convinced. I had an uncle who was a professor at IU so I have some rooting interest.

As the announcers said, maybe strength of schedule has to play more of a part, and it probably will. This was the first year.

I make no bones, I am a SEC fan and root for SEC teams no matter which team, but Alabama would have made for a much better game.

I live in Grove City and the cold front is here 26 degrees at game time bundle up

My son’s seats. Lots of Tennessee fans near him

Based on what we've seen so far, I think the playoff should cap at top 8.

I am enjoying the new playoff format.

I hear a lot of Indiana shouldn't have been in the playoffs
Waitibg on Tennessee shouldn't have been in the playoffs shouts
But you don't hear that about SEC teams

Lmao Tennessee way to talk all that smack only to get boat raced

Had no plans on going, but for some odd reason i looked at prices late in the afternoon and found them for 60 bucks after fees on ticketmaster about 3 hours before kickoff. Hustled up 675 and 70 after leaving at 5:30 and actually got to my seat at kickoff. For that cheap I figured even if I was a little late it was worth it for that price. And was it ever, never imagined this would be my first OSU game.

Now let's go out and play like this against Oregon.

THAT is pure awesome! Glad you went and witnessed the beatdown!

I loved it when the crowd was chanting "S-E-C......S-E-C"

It's SEC networks with their favoritism and BIG !( bias against OSU especially. Herbstreit's pal was an embarrassment to listen to wit all his "analysis" and insight from Wishigan loss. While we kicked Vol fanny. In second half, he carried on about ODuckses, even running game-end footage while he bad mouthed our QB multiple times. Most of his mud was wiped out in highlights. Favoritism while you ignore an honest beatdown.

The Bucks came out of fire and stayed that way. The Vols didn't play their best game, but OSU had a lot to do with that.

Hail to the victors....wait, that didn't come out right...Congrats!

Michigan v Bama was good. Bama definitely didn’t belong in the cfp over SMU, and it’s also good to see both of them playing in irrelevant bowl games for, say, 15 more years.
😆

Buckeyes by 10 tomorrow.

ND 27 - Indiana 17

SEC People
Alabama should have made the CFP over the Hoosiers

OSU 42 - Tenn 17
Tenn 24 - Alabama 17
Michigan 19 - Alabama 13
Indiana 20 - Michigan 15

Hmm???
Clearly Alabama didn't deserve to be in
Not sure Tennessee belonged either
10-2 Tennessee I don't question the decision
but clearly 12 teams is too many

My argument for years had been 8 teams
All Big 5 conference champions - however they decide their champion
ie regular season record vs conference championship game
The top rated non Big 5 team - must be a conference champion
2 at-large teams
JMO

It’s wide open from now on. The end of season rivalry games used to be all or nothing, and now they’re almost meaningless.

I love the new setup. To think that the 1st-3rd place teams in any power 5 can lose a couple games but still prove their worth, it’s awesome.

Imagine if college football began following the Superbowl. It’s awesome.

Jeremiah Smith is really really good

Go Bucks! Great win over #1!

Can he come out early and play QB?

what a great game

Thanks for waking us up Michigan.
