2026 NCAA Football Season

Epic collapse

OSU should have let them score.
You see this so often in college and the pros in big games; one side gets way up and then relaxes and they never get their edge back.
I will give credit to Arch; for the first time he actually looked like he MIGHT deserve the hype.
But he is going to have to be consistent to actually truly deserve it
 
Neither Texas or OSU are as good as they were portrayed.
OSU is not all that offensively outside of Smith
and defensively no they are not as good as they were last year
no one should have thought so with the graduation losses they had
 
Wow, what a finish! That was the definition of a tale of two halves. Arch was great in the 2nd half as was the rest of the team. You can’t spot OSU two early turnovers and expect to win but they found a way. Hopefully, Manning gains that confident boost to go on to a shot at the title. Inconsistency is my worry though…..

they lost like 4-5 1sr RDers,i think Indiana has a better shot of winning the BIG 10

He was not great
you arch bots are such fools
he only really shined in that last drive which was excellent; but claiming he was great in the whole second half IS GARBAGE
 
It's not a surprising comeback, Texas is unbeatable at home. Their real test will come in the road games. Bad choke by OSU though...looks like the championship 2 seasons ago was just lightning in a bottle and not Ryan Day actually becoming a great HC. Not sure I'd be relying on an Arthur Smith and Matt Patricia as my coordinators if I'm a major program with all the money and resources

Yeah, the coaching to me is questionable/ they have so much talent they get away with a lot but in the really big games they keep coming up short

He was in the last three drives in put up or shut up time. Sorry, I should’ve been more specific to your liking and just said 4th qtr.

I am also not an Arch bot and you know it. I have been plenty critical of his development.

Trying to rewrite history and frankly he only REALLY shined that last drive

Didn’t they just win the whole thing 2 years ago?
It doesn’t get bigger than that

And hadn’t they beaten Texas 3 straight, including playoffs?

Come on now

Their schedule is beyond insane.
Something g like 7-8 ranked teams
They will take a loss or two, almost surely

You are arguing with an Arch hater who would love nothing more than to see him fail. I am glad he didn’t give him the satisfaction tonight :grin:
