Play-Off Game: #8 Ohio State vs #1 Oregon -- Rose Bowl -- 1/1/2025 at 5 PM [ESPN]

OSU with 390 yards in the first half.

 

or maybe a biscuit

 

Wow Ohio State smashing Oregon.

 

ESPN2 also with the telecast.
Without Herbie.

 

If Oregon doesn't make it closer, I'll be forced to watch a rom com.

 

I can't stand when ESPN puts Kirby on OSU duty. Insufferable!
Like him otherwise...

 

Respectfully disagree about Fowler and Herbstreit. As soon as Oregon starts to shine, they give them the same treatment, IMO.

 

The comeback is on

 

Herbie - "they're gonna have to attack the edges, it will be too difficult to score between the tackles"

Ducks promptly run it right up OSU's gut.

 

Now Oregon's D answers the call. There is a chance.

 

There is no chance.

 

It was a small chance - now infinitesimally small.

 

OSU will just throw a high ball near the sideline and Smith will sky for it everytime with the DBs standing around looking up at him.

 

Osu vs Texas
Essentially a Texas home game at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas.

 

They weren’t done any favors by the playoff committee. Your reward for going undefeated and winning your conference is a rematch against a team you beat earlier in the year in your first game. They need to rethink the byes, or maybe reseed after the first week of games.

 

I like how Herbie just makes stuff up as he goes along.

OSU played with a magical chip on their shoulders against Tennessee. It's not easy to find those magical chips, and even harder to catch one and keep it alive until the next game. But by golly, OSU kept that little guy alive and that magical chip guy is going to town on Oregon.

 

That is really, excruciatingly dumb.

 

It's just this random dumb stuff that he says. Like there are these mysterious, invisible forces controlling everything. Or maybe OSU got embarrassed by Michigan, got knocked down a peg and refocused and used the loss to fuel their current run?

At least after decades of misuse, I think someone finally told him what the definition of literally is.

 

Oregon should have went with the green helmets.

 

So I tried the ESPN 2 broadcast, and I don't think there's 2 brain cells to rub together between the 5 of these guys. This is just embarrassing.
