You can be excused for being a Spartans fan, but your love of the Cornhuskers makes you unreliable as a football fan...I won't even bother discussing your Bronco fetish ;-)
OSU couldn't get the right defense on the field against a sloooooooow Bama team. They're gonna get run!
Against FSU the officials were from the ACC who did everything they could to slow down the game. How many times did we see the Ducks standing around waiting for the refs. Pretty much every play for those not paying attention. This game has a Big 12 crew who are used to teams being fast, fast, fast!

Long before I finally decided to root against OSU in this game I came to the conclusion that Oregon is going to run them up and down the field, and by the middle of the third quarter will be pouring it on so fast that OSU is going to wish they had ten timeouts.

Line play, as always will weigh heavily. They have an excellent RB in Ezekiel Elliott. If Urban gets his running game going and keeps the Ducks offense on the bench.....could spell Duckie doom.
They buried a Jameis, maybe they can bury an Ezeziel.

Yep, Reefer Madness. He's a devil, I tell ya.
Bottom line...very bad, selfish decision. Oregon loses a top offensive threat and the kid gets to live his life knowing that he didn't play in the NC game because he wanted to get high.

Of course you're right, Todd!
Not sure why the college athlete is supposed to uphold a higher standard than the average college student? I suppose it is to maintain the money that is flowing into the program from the donors.

Cranky, old white men run the show and they are just trying to be cranky old white men.
