I think the guy to watch after this game isn't Gibson, Timmons or Bell.....I think it's Saban.  If Bama ends up destroying ND (which it looks to be headed that way) will Saban finally feel bored with college football?  I think that will shape the landscape of these last few weeks of recruiting. The only x-factor is, how long does Saban wait until he "declares" for the NFL?

Yes, the Big Ten does need to try harder with its coaching hires (with the exception of Ohio St and Urban Meyer). But "SEC dominance" is a bit of a misperception. Mississippi St is not a good football team just because Alabama kicked the crap out of Notre Dame. Grantland had a pretty good article about that this fall. The whole SEC hasn't dominated college football. Urban Meyer, Les Miles, and Nick Saban have. Urban is in the Big Ten now. Now we just need the rest of the conference to follow suit and hire big time coaches instead of shooting for moderate success on a budget.

You guys did not want to play this Alabama team.

We almost beat Notre Dame in their stadium.

We lost a chaotic game at Nebraska when Denard was injured and the coaches failed to have a Plan B.

And we were outplayed in Columbus by a very good Ohio State team.

But nobody -- nobody -- put the hurt on us like Bama.

We lost 41-14.  I am hoping Bama beats Notre Dame 41-0.  It might be worse than that.

of course we would love to have played in a bowl game this year.  But, yeah, we could not legitimately compete with this bama team.  It would have been worse for us than not playing. Now, I recionize and respect that many in our fan base would not have cared getting obliterated in a title game again, but some of us (me included) prefer to get there when we have an actual chance to compete.  I'm happy we are not playing bama this year.  next year and the years after, with Meyer, let's have at it. Just not this year.

Notre Dame struggled to beat 2 of the same teams we did and blasted Michigan State who we struggled against.  Now, I know the D came around SOME in the 2nd half, but I wouldn't like our D's chances against this Bama O-Line.  We may put up a better fight simply because of how good Braxton is, but Urban didn't have the talent or speed in the trenches to hang with Bama this year.  I would like our chances next year and probably around 2014 where our skill players will be elite and we'll have so many nasty defensive players flying around, but 2012 Buckeyes woudln't beat this Bama group.  Notre Dame isn't that much different than Ohio State.  They may not have been as good as us offensively, but they were superior on D this season.

I don't think we, Ohio State, had the depth that Bama has either....yet. It seemed like we were one good injured player away from losing a game this year. Would Bama have had to move a full back to the starting MLB position? Doubt it.

That depth is coming though, with Urban's excellent recruiting.
