With many teams/conferences withdrawing from competition this year, it's going to be an interesting race to the top. My bold prediction? Army is the only team to play enough games to be eligible for a bowl and wins the National Championship by default.
Army shut out Middle Tennessee, Navy got destroyed by BYU, and Air Force is too scared to play anybody other than the other academies. Who'd you watch this weekend?
If you can't get stops on defense it doesn't matter how long of a field you give the other team. Pretty clear Dabo doesn't understand risk-reward. [Reply]

Oh come on, not a huge Fields fan by any means, but he’s better than Haskins. Haskins has never had a gutsy impressive performance like this. Fields is 10 times the competitor/leader alone.
I agree that it likely wouldn’t end well, but that’s taking it too far, just like the dude calling Lawrence Goff. [Reply]

I just don't understand what a bad team thinks they can do with him, he can throw 6 TDs in back to back games to win the title, it won't change that view I have. [Reply]

He's outplaying Lawrence by a country mile (while obviously injured). [Reply]

Ok sure but he is not going to succeed without a good coach that can fix him before he plays...
If he's a top 5 pick it's not gonna happen. [Reply]

Yeah, but what if they got stopped and gave them a short field? They might score a TD in just a few plays.
It never ceases to amaze me how much faith coaches put in defenses when there is no reason to believe they can generate stops. Whether it's Vermeil or Dabo, it's all the same. [Reply]

Don't get me wrong. I see Lawrence as one of the more can't miss prospects we've seen in some time. But Lawrence's stock is already set. I think fields takes a lot of unfair hits to his stock because people think he's a typical osu qb bust. He's easily the best QB prospect osu has seen in some time. [Reply]
