No ties. I pulled for Oregon because OSU is much higher on my hate list. They're near the top. I'm also not holding a grudge on them for the Pac12. That's on Larry Scott.

Watching so far this year I'm starting to lean toward being forced to the Big12 is a plus for ASU. Football's already had more national games this year than we've had in a decade. Plus they're playing great in them. We usually don't get that type of exposure.
My dislike of Ohio St. goes back to when they stole our head coach (Cooper) after we went to three straight bowl games. He showed he could beat Michigan, so they just had to have him (then he struggled vs Michigan (2-10-1) in all of his years there).

I’m on the opposite end of the spectrum. Being from Syracuse, the Orangemen are my favorite team, and then followed by Notre Dame. OSU comes next because they beat USC in the Rose Bowl way back when OJ played at USC. That was either 67 or 68. USC was #1 & OSU was #2 going into the game. The only players from OSU that I remember are Rex Kern (QB) and Jack Tatum (S). I couldn’t stand OJ or USC. I’ve rooted for OSU ever since. I despise PSU also & OSU lays waste to them every year!

If Ryan Day loses to Michigan this year he’ll be fired.
Dan Lanning will probably be at the top of the list to replace him.

I rally don’t like they turned to a K-St QB transfer to run the show. Hes mediocre at best.

The kid who transferred to Syracuse is killing it right now. He’s averaging 350+ yards passing with nowhere near the talent he had at OSU. Maybe he’s not good enough for OSU, but he’s been great for the Orange program.

Wish they would have kept him. They got spoiled by Stroud and expect everyone to come in play at his level which is not realistic. Stroud was just okay his first year, like McCord, but was given a few years to develop. Day is scrambling to keep his job and let McCord walk to Syracuse because he thinks this guy from K-St. gave him a better chance to win it this year.

If Day was secure in his job, they have a freshman that looks to be better than all of them but will never see the field this year because Day knows this is his do or die year.

I worked for a company headquartered in OH for 25 years, so I know quite a few OSU fans. They’re spoiled for sure, but not many of them are Day fans. I’m an OSU fan mainly because I despise PSU, so are there rumors as to who they might like if Day gets booted?
