Hyde is taking a beating but running VERY hard ... maybe the hardest I've seen him run.
The d needs to put the clamps down now.
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."

I was surprised they called him down when it was live... thought for sure he got in but then when they ruled him down I figured it was just the camera angle.... keep feeding Hyde!
And let's go defense!

There had been 5 lead changes by the time 13 minutes were to go in the 2nd quarter. There are two more.

Great job by Miller on that play. Nicely done for a huge gain.

Vegas can't be happy with the final play... Ohio State was favored by 5.5. 
I want the Cleveland Browns to be my pallbearers so they can let me down for the last time.

There might be a few on this very site that might be banging their heads against the wall too.
Heck, even the announcers were talking about it too. And that rarely happens.
Good game though. Lots of fun.

In College they just don't care?
Hypothetically, if OHio state had been down by 7 and recovered that fumble in the end zone, from the hook an lateral as time clicked to 0, they would have been allowed to kick the extra point. In the NFL they would have been allowed to kick the extra point.
But in College; they just don't care.
Can Deshaun Watson play better for the Browns, than Baker Mayfield would have? ... Now the Games count.

No problem. We won it going away. Nice 10 point win. LOL
Whew, that was closer than it probably had to be. The first half was anemic and ugly. Luckily we got stuff straightened out some in the 2nd half.

I got completely screwed on a play like that a few years ago in that wild Texas/Texas Tech. I think it was Michael Crabtree who scored with no time left and the crowd stormed the field, I think the total would have gone over. It was a half point total too so it wasn't even a push.

Some observations:
--Miller is the superior athlete, but I think the team plays better w/Guiton. He is smarter. He gets rid of it quicker. He sees the field better. Other guys get to showcase their talents more. With Miller in, we become the Braxton Miller Show.
--I agree w/those who complained about the soft coverage. It's way too easy for opposing QBs and WRs.
--Hyde ran very hard. He was exhausted. We got some well-timed stoppages of play to give him short breathers. I wonder how long he can last taking that many hits, though?
--Losing Bryant was big. Pittsburgh Brown is pretty bad at safety.
--I like that #63 guy. He could end up being very, very good.
--We need other teams to lose. I doubt if we are gathering many style points.

#3 Clemson still has to play three ranked teams; FSU, South Carolina, and Maryland. #2 Oregon also still has three ranked teams on their schedule; Stanford, UCLA, and Wash St. There's a decent chance they each finish with one loss. Alabama only plays one ranked team the rest of the way - LSU. OSU has one ranked team left, UM, so we could easily see an OSU - Alabama BCS Championship game.
I have to admit though, Alabama and Oregon appear to be the two best teams.

Too bad the NCAA playoffs did not start this season. There could actually be 4 very good undefeated teams this season and that would make for some awesome playoff match ups.
I know there are always surprise games for every team to survive but at this time the biggest games on this years schedule that will go a long way to determine who plays for the BCS Championship.
OSU vs Michigan. ( maybe twice in the Big Ten title game) That would actually be the best scenerio for both of those 2 teams. If both are undefeated when they play each other and then meet again a week later it will be an overhyped game and if one team sweeps the other that team can make a storng case.
Florida State at Clemson. Clemson already holds the most impressive victory on the season with their win over Georgia. If the Bulldogs keep winning and play in the SEC Championship game and possibly win it the Florida State Clemson winner if undefeated will have a very strong argument for them. By the way the frshman QB of Florida State is an amazing talent and getting better.
Alabama vs LSU and the SEC Championship games. Let's face it if Bama wins all of their games they are a shoe in for the BCS title game. The Georgia Bulldogs looked like a team capable of playing spoiler to end the SEC reign of dominance after losing in week 1 but with their injuries I don't think they could beat Bama anymore but LSU who Georgia beat might be able to.
Oregon at Stanford. The Pac 12 has been getting quite a bit of buzz about challenging the SEC for the best overall conference in college football. If the winner of this game is undefeated at the end of the year they also will have a strong arguement. Oregon's offense will make them a very sexy pick for the pollsters.
Should be a very exciting season with alot of great games to be played yet.

Urban Meyer was quoted as saying he nearly replaced Miller with Guiton after Miller missed a wide open receiver for a TD. I wonder if he's considering a situational rotation at QB like he did with Chris Leak and Tim Tebow at Florida in 2006? The bye week would be a good time to work on it, if he is. I don't know if Miller is still hurting or what, but he looks like he's playing scared.

I would agree with that ... until the end of the game. Those last couple of drive by Miller were nicely done. I loved the way he ran up to the line, then hit the receiver down the field when the defender committed. That was beautiful.
I did love the way that Guiton played while Miller was out. The competition wasn't the same level, but man, he sure seemed to do a nice job with his decision making and ball placement.

Hey DC, sorry man
yikes.
It was embarrassing.. FSU is not THAT good and Maryland is not THAT bad.. Maryland quit, I mean in the first quarter they just rolled over and stopped fighting faster than a $2 whore. I've never seen a team with less heart than what Maryland showed on Saturday.
It was going to have almost no impact on the outcome, but the late hit by the FSU linebacker, with the crown of his helmet, on Marylands QB that wasn't flagged was an absolute joke. If that happened in the NFL, he would be getting his fine notice in the mail today and it didn't even draw a flag.

On a different note, I heard that the line on the OSU game was 6 points and when they recovered that fumble for the late TD, over $100 million changed hands... but remember, amateur sports is pure and it's all about the student athletes.

But isn't that Vegas's fault for having a faulty line? If more than 50% were riding OSU, they should have moved the line to get more NW bets in.

I would assume they did.. the 50% that had picked NW went from winners to losers and the 50% that had picked OSU went from losers to winners..

That's probably only the reported wagers too. Think about all the offshore gambling websites, and guys who wagered with their buddies. Even before Brent brought it up, that is immediately what came to my mind. Man, some people got absolutely screwed.
For those of you that love gambling and gambling stories, there was a great article about the "gambling gods". I think it was part of a Deadspin article from 5 or 6 years ago. I can't remember. Awesome article. Goes through the do's and don'ts of watching a game, and how superstitious cappers are.

Just throwing this out there: I want Austin Seferian-Jenkins in the first round more than a WR. He would be Gronk for us and Jordan would be Hernandez.
