A coach who is blaming negative stories in the media for his team's underwhelming performance is a coach who is in over his head (ask any Reds fan about that).
What the f**k are you talking about?

I believe he's referring to the recent events surrounding Petrino.

I look for a solid but not flashy win. Road game, non-conf opener. Just win it. What I'm hoping to see is that Idaho focuses on stopping the run and we run them over anyway. I'm going 28-17 Ohio. Enough to let Frankie save the full playbook for the Herd.

Nailed it, C Money. I was hoping to get a better response out of that.

What are you talking about? We are on the 3 and you can get that anywhere in America.

Sarcasm is sometimes hard to detect on these boards, but I hope the above is one example.

Call me old fashioned, but I don't consider online streaming a national TV game. Otherwise, you could just say that all of our basketball games streamed on OhioBobcats.com were national TV games because you can get that anywhere in America.

Yes, the future is streaming (and Chromecast, Fire Stick, AppleTV, yada yada) but I like being able to put my TV on a dial (how's that for old fashioned) and to watch the game without buffering issues. I also think there are more "passive" fans nationwide that would watch anything on ESPN TV channels vs. actively seeking out streaming games.

I have no idea the value of these predictor sits, but for what it's worth, Massey Ratings predicts us to win by 7 and CFBPredictions has us winning by 9.

I don't know how they come up with that given that zero games have been played so far. But whatever.

Vegas has us at -8.5.

Teams that can pressure the q.b. are teams that I like.
