For someone claiming "math is fun," you seriously fail.

The other 2 games they lost by an average of 7 points a game.


Unfortunately, you're utterly and completely incapable of admitting you're mistaken.

NO, YOU!

The other 2 losses were against

Illionois - 28 - 21

and

LSU - 38 - 24 (THIS IS A 14 POINT DIFFERENCE PLOW!) THAT'S A 10.5 POINT AVERAGE!

How did you graduate math?

As I said, in 2 of three loses, they lost by 2 TDs or more.

[Akiyama]

I'll give OSU this. The game they lost to LSU was basically a road game. The thing is, the game they lost to Illinois was a home game. They shouldn't have lost that game. We won't bring the loss they had to Florida into the picture.

[Kirin]

OSU is now apparently without Wells for Saturday.

This is what you get for spending all but 1 OOC game in the state of Ohio and keeping 1st string in in the 3rd/4th quarter. My spartans are gonna steamroll OSU now =D.

[Mizango]

Boilermakers.

Nothing else to say.

[Akiyama]

Beanie Wells now "Doubtful" for Saturday's game against USC. If that's truly the case, this game could be over before it ever starts.

[Tyche]

QUICK, TO THE LINES!

[Akiyama]

THE LINESSSS! Haha. It's actually up from 10.5 to 11 right now. Wonder if it'll hit 12 or 13 by Saturday night?

[Tyche]

Lol, bodog is only allowing live betting, they are redoing the line

[Tyche]

sportsinteraction is still at 11. It's been at 10.5-11 for a day or so, before this news dropped.

[Gregorio]

Phew...I'm glad I didn't place my bet last night. I'm staying away from the OSU game.

[Plow]

You see that Florida game a couple years ago plow?

3 losses past 3 years. Average losing margin, 16 points. That's a pretty big number.

NO, YOU!

One of these 2 is not correct.


Please tell me you're not sitting here bitching about me being wrong because I'm going off YOUR incorrect information...

[Akiyama]

>.> Where is he wrong?

Florida 41 Ohio State 14 (27 points)
Illinois 28 Ohio State 21 (7 points)
LSU 38 Ohio State 24 (14 points)

27+7+14 = 48. 48/3 = 16.

Unless I am doing my math wrong (which I'm not), then he's right.

[Plow]

>.> Where is he wrong?

Florida 41 Ohio State 14 (27 points)
Illinois 28 Ohio State 21 (7 points)
LSU 38 Ohio State 24 (14 points)

27+7+14 = 48. 48/3 = 16.

Unless I am doing my math wrong... I believe he's technically correct.

ok, I'm off here somewhere

[Tyche]

Everything I've said is exact and precise.

I could make an extremely snippy comment here, but I won't. I just think you messed up with your math somewhere or completely forgot the score to the Florida/OSU game, which we included in their last three losses.

I know exactly where I was off, I counted the Florida for 9 points per game, then was thinking 7 points per game was accounted for by the last 2, but not considering that the extra 7 points per game was across all 3, not just the 2.

[Tyche]

The one loss to Florida accounts for 9 points per game between the 3.

no, he knew the florida disparity, 9*3=27. He stated that here. He just, I dunno, he just fucked up and tried to blame me.

I'm a little late on the Moreno hurdling conversation, but I must say I find it amusing how much attention it's getting. As a Missouri fan, I've witnessed Chase Coffman – a tight end, no less – make hurdling defenders his signature move. Some examples:


This past weekend against SEMO: http://www.columbiatribune.com/2008/...OOTBALL/10.jpg

Around 4:15 of this MU-Illinois highlight video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bkAUFhrDJHw&fmt=6

The first two clips and around 1:30 of this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQjTvtHHg9E&fmt=6


That being said, every time he hurdles people, I fear he is going to get undercut and break something.

Thank you! Jim Rome said it best, "Look dawg, you were not ignored because you play for Georgia, you were ignored because it was a superior athlete doing something he SHOULD do against a less than superior athlete." I mean the defender he hurled for that additional 2 yards was a fucking Chippewa, not a Gator, or a Gamecock, or a Buckeye, or a Trojan, or a Badger....[insert random l33t team here]

I mean even the media and more importantly HEISMAN voters are saying that they don't need Sportscenter top 10 plays to find out who the best player in the country is and that this sort of thing turns voters heads towards another player. So again, the "hating" and outrage was spot on according to people who's opinons really matter in this case.

[Akiyama]

Thank you! Jim Rome said it best,

Stopped reading here.

Also, congrats Miz. Your Tar Heels are looking pretty damn good. Tate is a beast.
