    Some good or great coaches can be best measured by how they do in "off" or younger class rebuilding years.

    I personally felt Harbaugh was good early on on getting The Game back on track especially being a former m QB. Now is it time for that signature win versus a quality OSU coach and team? Isn't it more interesting without any JCoops or LLLLLLoyds?

    Well considering how close he came last year, in Columbus, to the point some would say he might have actually won... I'd say he's ahead of schedule

    Oh yeah the rivalry is back, brisk discussions and we haven't played 2017 game 1 yet.

    I still would feel more confident as a Buckeye fan than any state of Michigan team fan going forward but that's why they play the game.

    #1 OSU vs #2 m always had a nice ring to it let's hope both can come through.

    GO BUCKEYES, BROWNS, INDIANS, CAVS, YSU, NAVY and yes I like ND!

    I see me saying anything negative about Meyer was too much for you.

    You even took the classic tactic of "throw so much shit at the wall i have to look right!"

    I wasn't knocking MSU for these issues. At least they did something. I'm saying it is a reason why they won't have a bounce back year.

    But as soon as it went OSU/Michigan i should have known you'd fly off

    You reap what you sow.

    What you should expect from me is that I will not let you get away with your little fucking Retarded insinuations and childish behavior....and your knob slobbering over your stupid little team. We always expect you to be a little nudge....

    So..we get exacty what we expect.

    Your Michigan programs have been far the bigger sewer hole of criminality and corruption than anything Ohio State has ever been....and they have been the much shittier football program as well.

    So...there are your facts. Choke on them.

    5-7 Teams? We were only talking about 2 teams, weren't we? : Texas and Texas A&M.

    Only one of them is in the preseason top 25, and one is not.

    My simple question to you was: Why? Why was one in and the other not? You are much closer to the situation than I, so you explain it to us.

    So beating Texas at the end of last year mattered even though they were 5-7....because they started in the preseason top 25? Okie dokie. You're trolling even worse than Gipper with this post.

    EDIT: Nevermind, you probably read it the same way Gipper did. Texas went 5-7 last year.

    A team that was 5-7 last year. That would be Texas.

    And I already answered this in my first post on this thread. "It is written in stone somewhere that they must be in every preseason top 25." It was a joke (although the latter part is true). I'm not trying to write a Master's thesis on it. Lighten up.

    I know you're contractually obligated to love everything SEC now, but in the past those preseason ratings were used to protect the SEC. If every team is ranked every win is a good win and every loss is still a good loss. I've been I've it before. Thats why i would want no ratings at all until mid season. Luckily the sec is falling off and people are starting to see it.

    Doh! OK, now I see. Sorry. Texas was 5-7.

    OK, so, you think that a 5-7 Texas team should not be ranked in the Top 25. But apparently those who do the ranking think there must me something there. I do not believe that the national poll voters have any prediliction toward ranking Texas that you apparently think they do.

    So...beyond your prejudice against them....why are they ranked?

    And why is TAMU not ranked.

    Again, you are closer to the situation than I...but please try to provide an unbiased explanation.

    That ranking must have a lot to do with Herman, who is a very good coach.

    Because A&M has not finished in the top 25 for three straight seasons and this is a rebuilding year. No reason to put them there. With Texas, it's inexplicable. No matter how bad they suck or how little they return, people will rank them in the preseason. And by "people," I mean about 80% of preseason rankings.

    Sounds like A&M has a JFF hangover that has gone on a long time....about as long as the one's the Browns are suffering from.

    Let's hope Garrett is the cure for that for the Browns....can't tell you what would cure it for TAMU.
