Bet we would have gotten more if our coach wasn’t rumored to be leaving during the voting. If they can beat a damn good Rich Rod coached team they might be at 24-25 to end the season. Other than the UNCC stuff which is what it is at this point, I think we have a desirable team and culture of producing winners that a lot of coaches out there would be happy to pick up the mantle.

They played like a Top 25 team against Miami. That was an absolute clinic. Solid defense, total ball control. Consider that Ohio scored the first 5 times they got the ball, and only punted one time in the game, and that was after they had build a 31-3 lead. 32 first downs. One drive was 18 plays long, and used over 10 minutes of clock. “We have two ears and one mouth so that we can listen twice as much as we speak.” ― Epictetus Back to Top OhioBobcat General User Member Since: 1/20/2006 Post Count: 1,618 Status: Offline     RE: We got Top 25 votes!    Posted: 12/9/2024 9:49:09 PM  OUbobcat9092 wrote: Ohio at #31 in the Coaches Poll. #35 in the AP Poll. Not correct. As a former Ohio SID used to drill into everyone’s head, he would say, “It’s a Top-25 poll, hence the number 25. The poll ranks the Top-25 teams. The teams receiving votes are not ranked, they only received votes to be ranked.” If it was a Top-35 poll, then Ohio would have been ranked based on the number of votes received. FYI - I totally understand your point. But after he stood on his soapbox and explained how much he hated seeing people make that kind of claim, I actually understood his point and notice it all the time myself nowadays.

I don't know which SID this was, but it gives off serious "Old Man Yells at Cloud" energy in 2024's media/social media environment Back to Top Showing Replies:   1 - 8  of 8 Posts Jump to Page:   1 View Other 'Ohio Football' Topics                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               WHO'S ONLINE There are 381 Active Visitors on BobcatAttack.com 376 Guests 5 Registered Users:   RSBobcat, ou1982, Doc Bobcat, Terry Lee, Mike Coleman There are no other users looking at this page.
