Last time I checked, Frank was about 4th highest paid head coach in the MAC. Can someone tell me where Saul stands pay wise? Guessing at the top? No matter the pay for any of Ohio's coaches, just hope they all do well. Go Bobcats!
Saul is in top three with Groce & Oats ... just not sure in what order

Welcome to BobcatAttack.com where every thread ends up being about the same thing thanks to its dedicated posters. Can we please stay on topic? This is about the Bowl game. Plenty of other posts to complain.

Saul's deal was partially paid for by the buy out of his predecessors contract.
Having said this, I still think we over paid for Saul. This was his 1st D1 job and recruiting at the D1 level is much different than what he was accustomed to. The results bear out this fact.

Listen, it's mind numbing that we weren't able to close the deal this year and win a MACC and many seem willing to sacrifice a few of our monotonous good seasons for a championship...with total suckage in between. The irony is, we kinda got that with men's basketball and that doesn't seem to curb any of the bitching. That makes me think we just have a bunch of chronic complainers on this board.
Or, there are fans that have reasonable expectations for the football and basketball teams to display success (MAC championships). For the amount of money spent on the coaching staffs and programs, it is fair to point out their faults.
Reasonable expectations gets confused with moaning, griping, & bitching on here.

Oops. Sorry. That was repetitive 😉

You can’t waterboard the realist with koolaid. Bshot has some great points and Excat 21 has great passion. The coaches can shut us up with a MAC. I think we are all happy overall but there is disappointment , when you see a post that says congrats frank on going 8-4, he would even be surprised by that. He wants more, so let’s either join him or respect the people that agree with him. I have made a conscious effort to lower my expectations but I get followed by two posters who are wmotional about my ambitions. One follows my post and says that I wanted to possibly recruit a kid that had an aledged sexual assault claim against. This person doesn’t realize that we signed roger Lewis who was actually charged with sexual assault because our coaches knew the the details. He tries to hit me and b shot and he is an easy win. I actually like the guy so I didn’t want to point this out, he is a new jack, he hasn’t watched the program since 96, the other person takes my compliment and mixes them up with issues that don’t correlate positively. Stop trying to Change bshot. His goals are aligned with coach solich’s goals. Most of all we can’t replay this year, we can only learn from it so let’s win this bowl game, have a good spring and summer and let’s stArt off strong and play all 4 quarters next year. Go Cats
Nobody despises to lose more than I do. That's got me into trouble over the years, but it also made a man of mediocre ability into a pretty good coach. Woody Hayes

To get back on topic.....

I really like Ohio's ground game chances here. The key as always is getting Rourke in rhythm early and often against a good ballclub. Definitely a solid barometer game for the state of our program and a win here would be a very nice booster.

That said, the athletes for SDSU I think match up pretty well with us and have the colts to run on our defense. They will do so early and do so often I feel and will come down to our offense managing this game effectively.

Prediction:
Ohio 27
SDSU 28

Well, there is one difference!  With a top-ten journalism school, which is well represented on this board, posters here will sometimes critique your grammar.  So, break out your Strunk and White before you post! wink

Also, you should note that some of us on this board are big on sarcasm and satire! cool smiley cheeky

Umm. That’s because you did allen. You thought we should “kick the tires” on him because “people lie on football players “. And I’m fine with you pointing out who I am. I’m not ashamed of what I said.

DITTO!! Bring back the Green and White! In 2 of Ohio’s 3 bowl wins, Ohio was wearing all white and in the 3rd, Ohio had the green helmet and pants with white jersey. Ohio has never won a bowl game in all-black unis. Just sayin’.....

I know the offense put up great numbers outside of Miami/NIU MAC games.

However, I am hoping that the offensive scheme has a great "Papi" emphasis in the his final Bobcat game.

Take a look at the Browns in the last few games and several other NFL teams creative plays for handing off to the slots and wideouts.

I'd just love to see a pistol snap just as a slot passes the QB from one side, in the case of the Browns, from the left. QB fakes to the wideout heading right and the defense relaxes on that side because no ball coming their way and then a moment later another guy comes in motion following the other and the inside handoff occurs. This ball carrier has the blocker in front and a defense that buys into the play will be going left. It worked twice for the Browns--a touchdown and later an extremely long gainer.

Papi is the man and nothing in the game is more exciting than seeing a running play that sets up and goes yard! Papi is a top notch receiver but he also could have been excellent getting several touches a game on handoffs and we seldom saw it.

Run Papi, run! Hope you have all of Oklahoma at the game watching you live. Please coaches, don't just throw to him, bring on all kinds of plays for him! Last chance to see OHIO's Dri Archer in action in the Green and White.

Is there a large following of SDSU fans that are hoping they are next in line for expansion? Or are they happy where they are in the MWC? Because if so, you'll fit right in.

The "prevailing pipe dream" of AZTEC FB fans is that the PAC12 will expand & accept them. Most of us realize that a SDSU FB & BB on an equal footing with the other PAC teams would cut into their recruiting, something they don't want. Big12? travel would be lengthy, perhaps the 12 would like the WC TV market.
