Am I crazy?

Well, don't answer that. But, did anyone else think that every media member at that game, save Urban Meyer, was pulling for shitty OSU? After the game, you would have thought that someone shit on the GameDay set. They were being a bunch of little bitches; I can understand Herbstreit, but Corso was dejected. He acted like he hated LSU all week and that they wouldn't be able to win.

Along those lines, remember all the talk about Ohio State being fast? They're not. Maybe they're Big 10 fast, not SEC fast. They literally had one offensive threat; LSU stopped him, and that was it. It's hard to make sense of this without stating the obvious: LSU was just much better than OSU. You can say all they outcoached, home-field, outmanned shit that you want; they just aren't very good on a national scale. Corso keeps talking about how they've only lost a few times in the last couple of years, and won 6 of 7 vs. Michigan. However, when you dominate your conference as they do, it's easy to pretend that you're much better than you are. Whenever OSU has played a big team outside of their conference, they lose. Embarassingly.

Next year they play USC out of conference. Good for them; they'll get blasted and we won't have to watch their shitty team in the national championship again.

It really seemed like LSU did no scouting, and waited for the first quarter to feel OSU out. Wells broke that TD, and LSU was like, "Oh, OK. Stop that running back, huh? We'll do that, as well as blitz the shit out of Boeckman." They singled the OSU wideouts, and Robiskie and Hartline were rarely open.

Again, OSU had so much to prove. They started with all the momentum. In the end, it didn't matter; they would've gotten beaten by any of the other conference champions. They do not belong.

Is the Clemens phone call staged? I don't know what to think about this whole situation. However, for the few people who had not yet turned their back on baseball, this was probably the last straw. Baseball will take a big it; and they probably should. They need to clean this mess up.
