Do you really want to get into this? I concede that we're both right, but . . .

This is why I said per capita. Sure, OSU is the best known program, but there is also Bowling Green, Akron, Kent, Miami, Cinci, and Toledo. Youngstown is AA, but how many NC's did they win when Tressel was there? Mount Union is D-5, but they have the longest winning streak ever in college football and pretty much own that division.

Why do you think I mentioned the HOF Game? It is played at Canton McKinley HS. They play their games on the NFL Hall's freaking grounds. Canton's *****ry with the Massillon Tigers made the cover of Sports Illustrated. That game is known as the biggest hs football *****ry in the US. The Tigers had a movie made about them. Paul Brown coached there, as did Earl Bruce. Then you've got the big schools in Cinci and Cleveland. You should see the **** Anthony Munoz donated to his kids' high school, it's sick.

Like I said, you could argue this **** all day, there is no right answer.

Vince Young is going to break up the Ohio State D, and for the record Oklahoma has no QB this year. TCU beat them...

We don't need to get into anything, just some freindly rib poking Binge.

I know, I was hoping you knew this was all good.

I must have seen my dad read Fri Night Lights 10 times when I was a kid, that and Woody Hayes bios.

Every state/region has their traditions & all.. I'm from MI, but now live in Louisiana. Watching SEC football is fun. The speed these guys have definitely keeps the games exciting.

As for this weekends games, I'll have to pull for the Buckeyes because I now hate UT due to last year's Rose Bowl.. Looking at the polls, I see OSU is right behind MI. If OSU beats UT, & MI beats ND, it's up in the air as to who takes over 2 & 3..

**charliewat** · 09-07-2005 08:11 PM

I think Michigan blows ND out of the water this week and the Bucks have to much on D this year for anyone to stop em.

**charliewat** · 09-08-2005 10:39 PM

This year Ohio States Offense has multiple options. Ill take the pepsi challange against any school with Santonio Holmes and Ted Ginn as the best receiving duo. Zwick will no doubt start the game but by the time the game is over Troy Smith will be the man. I would bet that Troy Smith will end the game with better numbers then Vince Young.

Rogue what HS did you attend in Austin?

**Max32** · 09-09-2005 11:46 AM

UT WILL BEAT OSU, PERIOD!

That being said, nobody knock on my Horned Frogs. They controlled the Sooners the entire game IN NORMAN. They have a chance at un undefeated season, depending on the Louisville matchup....

This thread has become quite amusing.

**ryansm** · 09-09-2005 07:01 PM

I attended Westlake. You have an impressive resume Rogue congrats.

Rogue - Wash. DC puts more players in the NFL per capita last I saw.
But, Florida was 2nd.

Never seen that stat for D-1A players.
