    Agreed 100%! Add to that all the thumpings they took in BCS games, but none of the media hate OSU received. A complete head scratcher there!

    must be an east coast bias or something lol..

    The only choker in big games worse than Tressel is Stoops and the entire country knows it.

    LOL!
    Yea, a couple of sorry-ass coaches, eh?
    The humiliation of rooting for a team coached by Tressel or Stoops is almost too much to bear.

  • My peanut butter sandwich was ranked in the top 15. Relax people - we debate these polls each pre-season, and everytime many of you get worked up.

    And no it's not true about my sandwich- I don't like peanut butter.

  • I don't know if this has been covered yet, because you are all still talking like it hasn't been, but we are ineligible for the coaches poll due to being ineligible for the BCS and the poll being used in the bcs rankings.

    He's only been a HC for three years but Chip Kelly could be making an argument for himself as a big game choker.

    In 2009, Oregon lost to Boise State in Kelly's HC debut on national TV (the infamous LaGarrett Blount sucker punch incident), then got blown out by 5-3 and unranked Stanford, then manhandled by OSU in the Rose Bowl when they were a big favorite.

    Lost to Auburn in the 2010 BCS NC game.

    Lost to LSU in the 2011 season opener, then lost to USC in Eugene.

  • In how many of those games was Oregon a favorite and in how mnay of those games did they get blown out.

    Losing to Boise St is not an embarassment.

    Last i checked, when Oregon was in the national title game they lost on a last-second FG. And last time I checked, we got blown out in back-to-back national title games. So, you can see why someone would say we choke in big games.

    Oklahoma has received the same if not more media scrutiny for their bowl games as OSU under Tressel. The OSU homers just chose to focus on everythign OSU and don't pay attention to other programs as much as they do to their own.

    Pay attention: I said Kelly's making a name for himself. I made no "homer" remarks regarding OSU, Tressel, Oklahoma or Stoops. You can split hairs if you want and break it down to close game versus blowouts but, bottom-line, a loss is still a loss. There are no moral victories so whether you lose by 1 or 41, the fact is you still LOST.

    The great American statesman Daniel Webster said you can't call it a democracy without at least one dissenting voice. I have tried to tolerate you as a dissenting voice but I have to tell you that your boorish position as the eternal pessimist and anti-Buckeye contrarian smells worse than a dead fish. Yes, some people here are unabashed homers but, to tell you the truth, I'd rather deal with their blind allegiance and naivete than your Schleprock-like negativism.

    I liked you better when you were tornado zadar. At least then all the hot air you blew at least fit your name. Odan rot is an unimaginative anagram of tornado. As is odorant and that fits you even better because your attitude stink.

    Iowa, thanks for calling him out. I've been saying this for years. This guy's the Mother of All Permatrolls and negaBuck with a psychotic disorder.

    +1 comin tomorrow when my votes reset.

    The guy should be on permanent ban and mods do have the ability to see when posters are the same user with a different name and should auto-ban immediately in those cases. When someone consistently just brings trouble with them, they should be booted.

    That's what I thought too. TZ freaks me out as much as this Waugh guy.

    I have always enjoyed your post Iowa , but not this one.

    I am going to get creamed for this but I have to side with Odan Rot. You can't say stuff like this about Oregon. Yes they lost big games, but they still won many big games as well. You can say that about any coach. Mack Brown, Mark Richt, Les Miles, Nick Saban. Go on and on, and they lost key games. Stop with this choke thing with these coaches. They are respected at there schools and work there ass of to do good.

    Now on Odan Rot, this is a OSU website, not a SEC, or USC, or Oregon, nor whatever school website. OSU - and most on here are from Ohio and have a bias towards OSU. It's not being a homer, but being passionate for their team. I do understand though that most don't have a outside view, but don't be a shithead about it. I think that most on here have the media, and everyone else after them. always thinking OSU is getting the raw deal of things. True or not, let it go. Every fan of another school thinks they are getting the bad deal. That's just the nature of things.
