marshla didnt play Texas....the 2nd best team in WV kicked helpless umass yesterday
No excuses from me. Our O-Line wasn't up to the task of handling the huge Texas D-Line and so they made us one dimensional. We don't have the best team we have ever fielded. Sagarin ranks Mooshall's SOS to date as 113 among the 130 teams at the FBS level, which tends to lead me to believe that if we played that soft of a schedule that we too would be undefeated.
Did somebody post something about Sagarin? This week's Sagarin ratings:
1. Ohio State
26. Marshall
34. WVU
81. Texas Tech (which beat WVU)

True to form tOSUdogpeckergnat throws Ahia State into a thread where no one else had even mentioned the Suckeyes, on a message board where no one gives a rat's ass about the worthless nuts.
You're the one who mentioned Sagarin, Paw Paw. It's not my fault that Sagarin ranks Ohio State No. 1, your new big brother No. 26, and a team that beat WVU No. 81. Use a different metric the next time, so that I don't humiliate you again.
I referenced Sagarin only in order to show the weakness of Mooshall's schedule. I don't blame you for being proud that Sagarin has Ahia State ranked #1, but it has nothing to do with my point that Mooshall's schedule strength is pathetic.
Not much the Herd can do when it comes to strength of schedule, other than hope to play a couple decent OOC games each year, and even that won't move the needle much for their SOS. C-USA has more stiffs than a Nevada brothel house.
In all honesty, Ohio State is not the best team in the Country right now. The Buckeyes' defense reminds me of the 2018 defense, which got blasted by Purdue, and gashed by Maryland when Ohio State escaped with a 52-51 win. If the defense doesn't improve, then a loss to Maryland on Saturday or Indiana the following week would not shock me.
Maryland can score, but it will be interesting to see if they can move the ball against the Buckeyes. That could be much closer than the line is currently projecting it. It's just too hard to predict these games this year, particularly against the spread. I think I'm currently like 0-24 picking them.
Once again you try to hijack another thread into a discussion about Ahia State, and once again I will remind you that no one here other than you and MichiganTerd gives a rat's ass about the Suckeyes. This thread is about teams in WV. Try to stay on topic.
Ha ha, so says the ancient piece of sh!t, who takes shots at Ohio State whenever bad news about the Buckeyes is reported. You're not fooling anybody, Paw Paw. My point was that Sagarin isn't all that accurate, especially with so many games to be played, but you foolishly rely upon Sagarin SOS ratings because you're so desperate to believe that WVU is the best team in West Virginia. Take a look at the polls, Pops.
Back to my original point which you keep trying to deflect from, and that is that Mooshall's strength of schedule is weak. There is no denying that. IMHO not only would WVU be undefeated with that pathetic schedule, but I wouldn't hesitate to say that Martinsburg High School or Spring Valley High could also be undefeated against the schedule the Blundering Turd faces.
Sounds like WVU should schedule the Herd annually, in order to provide the state's residents with a football game.
Settle it on the field of play, as opposed to message board banter.

It would shock me...Terps will not stop OSU while they might score some themselves they won't keep pace with the Bucks.
Opinions are like a$$holes, and yours--like so many others--stinks. No school has more "woulda, shoulda, coulda" titles than WVU.

I don't disagree that Ohio State will score a lot of points on Saturday because Justin Fields and his pass catchers are as good as anybody in America, but the defense isn't as nearly as good as last season's silver bullets. Nobody has stepped up to fill the void that the Bosa brothers and Chase Young have left as dominant pass rushers, and the secondary, which lost three starters who now start in the NFL, doesn't look nearly as good as last year's unit.
Agreed they lost some special talent on that side of the ball but what's left plenty good enough to defeat Maryland, IMHO! OSU 52 Maryland 27.
So you're taking Maryland +27.5 and over 73.5, Tony? Although the total is very high, I tend to agree with you here.
Ohio State would need to start out crushing Maryland to cover 27.5 points, basically ripping out their heart in the opening few possessions and forcing Maryland to be one dimensional.
That just looks like a big line to a team that just went on the road and beat Penn State with relative ease.

Not crazy about the side as you know lot's of ways to lose laying 4 TD's but love the " over the bus ,Gus".
Yeah, 27.5 is too many points. If Ohio State blows the Twerps out in the First Half, then the Bucks will come out disinterested in the Second Half and Day will replace all of his defensive starters in the Fourth Quarter, as happened vs. Rutgers. This sets up for a backdoor Maryland cover, even if Ohio State were to race out to a big lead. Having said all of this, Penn State had 30 first downs vs. Maryland, but killed itself with three turnovers (including a scoop and score) vs. none for the Twerps.
I didn't know how the PSU-Maryland game flowed. I had to turn the TV off around 2:30 on Saturday, to avoid tossing a nice 16 ounce pass through the screen, so I spent the rest of the day outside doing yard work.
