That should be a fun game. Maybe I will watch it. I will pick the underdog.

Yep, I'm excited for it. I'm not a fan of either one. But I have family that is on both sides. Some went to ND and some went to OSU and it's funny watching the family feuds!!lmao

Thinking of putting big bet on the game if wifey lets me and doesn't get upset..haha

He is, I think Notre Dame wins mainly because they are at home. When 2 teams are evenly matched, go with the home team.

BOILER UP!!!! Yes I’m definitely a fan, I work in West Lafayette, have a daughter who is a Junior at Purdue, and a few family members who have went there(except my sister the black sheep who went to IU, lol)

 

Im picking Notre Dame, not only due to them being my other in state team but because the QB transfer they have, Hartman, has looked pretty darn good with the team, and they seem to be firing on all cylinders which is never a good thing for their opponents. Ohio State is no slouch by any means, they seem to be getting back to their dominate ways, it’ll be a great game!

Yeah I love Notre Dame's offense and both teams are pretty evenly matched. In college football, HFA is huge when you have 2 top 10 teams playing each other. Notre Dame wins by 3.

You all making this hard for a bet..haha

I want to take OSU and was willing to put a $1000 down. But wife got me on a budget and said my max is $300. Geez, now I might have rethink it all. My ND family will love me putting on Irish..lmao

Long season to go, it sounds like you are willing to bet big by your post. If I was in your shoes with your betting mentality, I would bet $200 on ND and take the 3.5 points. You win that, then that puts you in a good position to bet on the NFL on Sunday.

I have 1 bet regarding college, I have $100 on Colorado to win at least 6 games. Their over/under in Vegas was 3.5 wins before the season. If I get the 6, I will win $175. They only won 1 game last season but I knew Deion would turn that mess around.

I suggested you taking the 3.5 and betting on Notre Dame. If you did, you would have won your bet. Irish covered. Regarding the game though, that was a gut wrenching loss. Tough way to lose. I had Notre Dame winning by 3 but I knew they would cover.

It probably would have helped if the Irish would have played with 11 players on the field, instead of the 10 they had, on the last two plays.  I'm pretty sure that they were missing a d-lineman on the last play where Ohio State ran for the TD.

Yeah what was up with that? That was a kick to the teeth loss. Ohio State barely got that ball over the goal line before the RB knee touched but football is a game of inches.

Freeman called a timeout and 2 guys left the game but only 1 came back on. He said they knew they were down a guy but he didn't wanna risk a penalty. Sucks because that missing lineman is exactly where OSU ran the ball too.

    • Championing the Art of Mediocrity   In the realm of NFL management where big splashes and bold moves often steal the spotlight, Chris Ballard of the Indianapolis Colts stands as a beacon of mediocrity—oops, I mean, moderation and stability. Ballard has mastered the art of steering clear of both spectacular success and abject failure, opting instead for a comfortable middle ground where his team consistently hovers around average.   While other GMs chase after flashy signings and high-profile trades, Ballard prefers a more subtle approach. His teams are like the middle child of the NFL—neither the star of the family nor the problem child. Take, for instance, his draft picks: solid, dependable players who rarely make headlines but also rarely make Pro Bowls. It's a strategy that ensures the Colts remain perennially in the hunt for the playoffs without ever seriously threatening to win it all.   Critics may scoff at Ballard's reluctance to swing for the fences, pointing to the lack of marquee names on his roster or the absence of Lombardi Trophies in his trophy case. Yet, Ballard remains unfazed, steadfast in his belief that consistently finishing just outside the top tier is a commendable achievement in itself.   In a league where greatness is often measured by Super Bowl rings and MVP titles, Ballard's Colts serve as a refreshing reminder that there's honor in being consistently okay. While other teams chase after glory, Ballard quietly celebrates the virtues of stability and predictability—a strategy that ensures his team remains perpetually good enough to keep fans interested without ever giving them false hope of a championship.   So here's to you, Chris Ballard, our unsung hero of NFL mediocrity. May our Colts continue to embody the spirit of contentment in a league that sometimes seems obsessed with extremes. Your dedication to the middle ground is a testament to the fact that in a world of winners and losers, there's beauty in just being average.   Our Chris Ballard, the enigmatic mastermind behind the Indianapolis Colts' draft selections, continues to astound with his unconventional approach to player evaluation. Known for his ability to turn perceived draft flops into valuable lessons in resilience, Ballard has elevated the art of optimism in the face of adversity.   Take, for instance, his selection of Quincy Wilson, a cornerback whose career trajectory seemed to follow the path less traveled—straight to the sidelines. Wilson's ability to excel in the role of 'spectator extraordinaire' brought a new dimension to the Colts' bench, proving that even inactivity can be a form of contribution.   Then there's TJ Green, whose ability to redefine the term 'safety' by providing the opposing offense with a false sense of security is a testament to Ballard's commitment to strategic innovation. Green's unpredictable presence on the field undoubtedly kept quarterbacks on their toes, in excitement.    And who could forget Ben Banogu, a defensive end whose knack for demonstrating the art of camouflage by seamlessly blending into the turf has left spectators marveling at his commitment to environmental integration. Banogu's ability to remain inconspicuous during critical moments showcases Ballard's emphasis on adaptability and the importance of being one with your surroundings.   Ballard's genius lies not just in his ability to select players, but in his skillful navigation of the delicate dance between expectation and reality. His selections may not always align with conventional wisdom, but they consistently challenge perceptions and redefine what it means to be a draft bust.   As Ballard continues to forge ahead, his unorthodox approach serves as a beacon of hope for aspiring NFL general managers everywhere, including those perusing fan forums. Because if there's one thing Chris Ballard has taught us, it's that in the unpredictable world of professional football, even the most unexpected outcomes can be reframed as victories in disguise.   AKB
    • He started 14 games at SS in 2019 and started 8 games in 2018 for the Jags.  I meant to post this earlier in the thread.   https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/H/HarrRo02.htm        
    • The additions of say Taylor, Raimann, and looking back to Leonard could be called important, savy drafting.  Our Colts have been waiting for awhile for a special, difference making player to surprisingly fall to US. Right when we really really needed it to happen, it sure looks like we got two of them. 🙏 for good health.  AR a surprise at 4, not at all.  But      
    • You're not certain...but you know it's a fact.  How does that work? Haha
