If the ball was on the 3 yard line or closer, Pete got the ball and scored.

So cut athletic programs, assuming you mean woman's athletics because that is the brunt of Title IX, taking away education and scholarship opportunities so you can feed the revenue generating sports of CBB and CFB.  Brilliant.

Um, you do realize that professional pay and college compensation issues related to gender are  two totally different animals.  Colleges are controlled by Title IX.  Equal access, equal facilities, on and on.  That would also mean if you pay mens basketball or football players, then you have to pay all athletes, men and women.  THAT is never going to happen

Take your scholarship, world class facilities/conditioning, world class coaching, world class food/diet, room and board and be thankful that you have that opportunity as an athlete that many others don't have (average student).  IF you are good enough, you will get paid.

Don't know if this has been said yet but who cares?

Currently -7 in the western Chicago 'burbs down to -25 tonight.  High of -17 on Wednesday and a low of -29.  That's without the windchill.

Yeah baby, bring it on!!!  Be safe out there and stay home.

Oh I don't know.  The fact that he does not have eligibility yet and no assurance that he will for starters.  And how many meaningful snaps has he taken?

Think someone said below, pump the brakes a bit.

I am sorry and have not read any of the other comments yet but is this a joke?

Blue - What have you seen out of Justin Fields that would make Tate Martell afraid of winning the starting job here?

Sorry but wouldn't Fields need to sit a year after transferring?

and he could improve his position

I am driving in from the Chicago area and staying about a mile from Lucas Oil Stadium so will be walking from the hotel.  I did go to the official game site and there are a bunch of activities, open tailgates, etc.  Should be a good time.

BuckeyeGuy0615 - What hotel do you work at (if you can say)?  I just got a ticket today and will be at the Marriott Courtyard up the street (used points and Lifetime Platinum member).

Any other Buckeyes staying at the Courtyard, let me know and we can grab a beer or five!

Unfortunately, I watched it from the stands at that cesspool of a "stadium".  Was a loooooong drive back to Chicago after that one.

Thanks for the heads up on the ID cards being issued.  Just went through the process and documentation online and waiting for final review and issue.  Good to see that that are making available for all veterans not just those that have retired.

I love how people are downplaying Tate's ability to play/hype based on the fact that he has not played enough to show them otherwise.  Then, out of the other side of their mouths, they say he is not at good as Braxton was in terms of running and throwing.  Huh?

I am constantly amazed at the ever increasing discounts available to vets these days.  One I had no idea about was Verizon Cellular and their 15% discount on wireless service and 25% on accessories.  I know the other wireless services offer discounts as well.

Carry your active duty/retirement card or copy of DD214 and always ask.  It never hurts and may help the old wallet.

Thank you to all my fellow Veterans and all those that support them.  'Merica! 

Sorry, I have to jump in here.  Haskins has NOT been stretching the field.  The vast majority of passes are short/mid range completions with run after catch getting the majority of the yards.  

We have not been stretching the field as everyone expected this year.  Tough to do with no run game.

I would love that if for nothing else than to know the content.  I know it can be challenging in environments like that but I have to put my ear up to the computer speaker to hear anything........

Maybe I'm just going deaf......

Great little town.  Got my rental car towed there once (illegally parked or so I was told).

It's hard to say for sure but it appear Gustin is enthusiastic about his diet and training regiment even designing elements of his complete workout himself.  As I recall, Marinovich had his lifestyle shoved down his throat since he was an infant by his lunatic father.  Robo QB indeed.......

That's more likely to happen then you think if they keep rolling out shows like that one.
