OT: College Football 2025 Championship Game Thread

And Day doesn't? BTW, I'm hoping OSU wins.

Yeah, I would have said the same thing if you were impressed with Day :)

To be fair (or rather to not be fair), UND is an ACC team in all but football. So of course ESPN would rather a ND win.

That missed ND FG looms large...

 

[Doctor Worm]

And the OSU gamblers rejoice.

Hat's off to Marcus Freeman and Notre Dame.. helluva season and post-season.. fought all the way.

And Congrats to Buckeyes everywhere. (I don't like Day.. I suspect with OSU's support structure any decent coach could win there... fire Day.. make headlines.. hire Chip)

So close but so far

Big Ten:

Must be nice to have the top talent money can buy…then plug every hole in your roster with the best transfer portal mercenaries. Give Schiano either of these rosters and he would be a National Champ.

And the OSU gamblers rejoice.

And all across the nation, ND fans lose... twice. LOL.

It was an excellent game. Definitely the two best teams, and last year both would have been left out.

 

[Shelby65]

I didn’t get it either. Two score game to a two score game

With the FG they would no longer need two 2 point conversions and there was enough time for at least two more possessions with a QB who was on fire

mmmm.. I'd like to think so.. but when you reach that level of talent it is a completely different kind of thing... I mean.. how did they lose that badly to Michigan?

Hmm.. did they want to lose? Did they not want to play Oregon in the Big Ten Championship? If that is the case.. it worked out.

Chip Kelly gets his title.
Kirk makes the same 2 mil so RU might be next

Wait a minute! Rutgers beat Washington.
Washington beat Michigan
Michigan beat Ohio State
Rutgers just won the National Championship!

Lol, there you go with your paranoid little conspiracy theories. Get help.

How is that "paranoid"? Buy a dictionary or use an app.

 

[ashokan]

Kirk getting weepy over his bucky brahs

 

[William J. Leggett]

Anyone else switch to BTN coverage… Much better

 

[ashokan]

Seems like a long time since Howard game but its a stroll compared to some pro seasons

Well, at least you didn't blame the refs.

ND isn't the 2nd best team. Texas, Oregon are definitely better. Hell after tonight I think Michigan could run down their throat all night long.

Again, you just prove my point. Some of you are so brainwashed that you won't even consider when refs rule unfairly.. unless, of course, you have a lot of media pointing it out for you. Never before has it been so easy to gamble and so much money riding on college sports.

And about the "conspiracy nuts".. if you haven't noticed, they have been more right than wrong for at least a decade now. So you got that going for you.
