#2 Ohio State vs #3 Oregon

[TemplarCane]

Yeah it actually all ties in together. Good discussion.

I mentioned Day is certainly a good coach, maybe not elite in that regard, but the man raises crazy money for the program and it keeps them running with these schools. I mean look at their class. Best CBs in the nation from Texas and Alabama and where are they going? OSU. (For now)

So seems like they know it would be dumb to get rid of Day when they can throw some money at any potential “issues” he might have.

Not to mention, who exactly would they hire to replace Day?

OSU going to bring Meyer back, bring Saban out of retirement?

No.

 

[TOcane]

I hate Taint, but yeah they are part of the small elite which is aggravating. Which brings me to the main point, and you aren’t guilty of but many on this board are and that is basically everyone is a corch by their standards.

****, before Harbaugh won a chip last year people were saying he was a corch on this site. This is a dude that was successful at every stop he was at including leading a team to the Super Bowl.

Yet because he couldn’t beat Taint early in his career he was labeled a corch, never mind that he won 10 in 3 of his first 4 years there.

I see people label James Franklin a corch and while yeah dude hasn’t been able to win the big game, he wins.

We have created this narrative where anyone but the likes of Jimmy Johnson are corches. Of course we will have a different criteria for whomever is our current HC.

Lol anyone calling Harbaugh a corch compared to Day would be silly. The guy went to a SB and did things no one will probably do again at Stanford. The two aren't comparable. He earned a long leash because of what he had done before. Day has no background to have earned anything. He is in a league of his own of being a guy was unproven and got an elite gig.

Yet many did so on here which is my point.

Fair enough.

Will Howard da GOAT….one heck of a cross country plane ride coming up LOL

Lanning and Co. tried their best to give OSU this game….how you have 12 on the field IMMEDIATELY following a timeout is beyond me…he’s lucky to survive this one

I actually think it was a great strategy by the CIS Anointed Gameday Coaching GAWD Dan Lanning.

They are out of FG range 5 yards won’t hurt. You have an extra guy to stop the play.

The time on the clock is not reset.

So you get the stop and leave them with 6 seconds left.

Genius!! Moar Corches should do this!


[CIS swears every coach is a better gameday coach than Mario…yet watching games have told me all these guys are very similar.]

The Harbaugh stuff was hilarious, and I thought that when it was looking like he might get fired.

At least some people are saying Lanning sucks or is overrated now whoch is also hilarious. Guy's probably a top 5 coach already.

 

[Dghustla]

I actually don’t think it was terrible. Aside from you had 12 men on the field and didn’t double Jeremiah smith lol.

Side note though, if the QB counts how many defenders there are and recognizes it they can snap the ball spike it and get the yards with little time wasted.

I'll take Dan Lanning as a head coach any day of the year.

If we had done what Oregon did it would be much bigger news, and we might have dropped in the polls. it would be considered a controversial ending, as bad as the other two.

 

[TheOriginalCane]

Y’all will sit here and give Mario a pass bc his players suck, but will blame another HC for a guy missing a FG to go to the CFP title. Make it make sense.

What?

People might understand Mario's first 2 years because he inherited bad players, but Ryan Day is in Year 6 after inheriting a 13-1 team.

There might be a valid reason for evaluating Day and Cristobal with slightly different standards. For now.

Why is there a different standard in blaming players vs blaming coaches? If a Miami player ***** up it’s never Mario’s fault. But when a kicker misses a FG to get to a natty, it’s on Ryan Day.

Don’t really care whose work it is. It’s laughable for anyone who believes Mario is a good coach, to say anything negative about Day. He’s literally a higher level Mario.

Better offense
Better defense
Gets to the playoff vs conf championship

Mario went into Osu and beat Day head-to-head. Day has been at OSU for a min, Mario has bounced around building different programs. So, at the moment yes it seems like Day is the better coach but let's not act like Day hasn't continuously fumbled the bag. You think Day could inherit the Miami team before Mario came here and turn us around? I doubt it, cause all we've seen from him is inheriting talent and getting to the playoffs and losing. There is NO excuse to have Stroud (1st RD QB) and (4 1st Wr's )Wilson, Olave, Harrison, JSN on one team and not have a NC to show for it. He has continuously done LESS with MORE. Spent 20 mil on a roster this year and obviously made the stupidest choice to take Howard over Ward (I'm not complaining, I appreciate the stupidity) which will probably come back to bite them. OSU fans will also tell you his Defensive coaching staff is an issue. It's his job to fix it he won't. Is Day a good coach yea for sure but no he is not ELITE AT ALL. Elite coaches win a NC with all the talent that he gets. You think Saban or Myers doesn't win National Championships with that talent lets be fr! Its so bad OSU made him go get Chip Kelly. Lets please not sit here and act like Ryan Day is that Guy. He's had plenty of opportunity to show us that he is and fails every time and quite frankly his time is running out. OSU is getting restless. What do you think is going to happen if they spent all that money on the roster and going to get Chip Kelly and doesn't win the NC? Its literally NC or Bust this year.

Who cares that Mario beat him one time? That means nothing past that one Saturday. Is Mario a worse coach that the MTSU guy that walked his team into Miami and beat the **** out of him?

Day would have a better record than Mario at Miami if given the same situation.

His kicker cost him that national title. Stroud and company should blame their kicker.

I like Day - and I hate Ohio State
- However he took over from Urban with loads of talent
- Mario took over from Many
- Not the same

How do you know he would? Again before OSU the guy had no P5 HC experience. It's bologna and you capping for a buckeye.
