Thank God the Bengals beat the Chiefs today, saved my weekend. Great game, still thawing out.

Not looking good, OK ST wearing them out with tempo

The offense lost that game for us. We needed to load up to stop the run and score. Let me know about the Newport show. I'll be there for sure and gladly buy your tickets

You're on! I've got $100 on the moneyline paying $410. Coincidentally my championship game ticket will cost me $439 if we make it. A Bearcats win could mean a few nice tickets for me.

That game was entertaining but that was some bad football

Not a very good start to bowl season for the SEC, hopefully that continues Friday

Things are getting crazy in the NFL with guys out for Covid. Could be the team that stays Covid free wins. They need to stop making vaccinated asymptomatic players sit, crazy.

The needle and the damage done

Half step Stranger

I agree. With a new freshman starting qb and revamped defense, not a good year to start with a conference game on the road followed by a home game against a to 10 team. Tough start for Freeman next year playing a more veteran Ohio state at the start of the year. My Bearcats will be reloading after this year and starting at Arkansas, that should be a test.

I actually think the Bearcats match up better with Alabama than Georgia or Michigan

Happy to be in no matter who we play.

Hell yes! It's party time in Cincy!

I really hope that Georgia beats Alabama but I'm nervous. When I've watched Alabama they haven't looked very good like a typical Alabama team. Georgia has looked great, especially on defense, but I'm not so sure about the offenses they have gone up against. We'll see. I just hope that my Bearcats win and get in. Very happy for Marcus Freeman at Notre Dame and that Fickel will be staying at Cincy at least until the Ohio State job opens up. Interested in your take on the Notre Dame coaching situation Desert Dad?

I'd say with a Georgia win you would have: 1. Georgia 2. Michigan (assuming they win) 3. Cincinnati (assuming they win) 4. OK. St. (assuming they win) A loss by any of 2-4 opens the door for Notre Dame. I wonder if they would put Notre Dame in ahead of Cincy if Cincy lost close?

Crazy to think but it looks likely that we will have a playoff without Ohio State, Clemson, Oklahoma and Alabama

Steely Dead sounds very intriguing

Don't Georgia and Florida play this week, not Tennessee and Florida? I think 12 teams is too many for a playoff. They will need to get rid of conference championship games if you have 12 and teams will rest players late in the year when they know they are in. I think 6 or 8 would be much better to keep the excitement of the regular season. I love college football because the regular season games are so good. There are a lot of blowouts but in any window there are a couple tight games to follow and so many games can affect your teams chances to make the playoffs. This weekends slate looks great.

IMHO the Dew is what makes Cornell 77 a great show. I also agree that the earlier speedy versions don't work nearly as well, the song needed to evolve over time. Stella seemed to be there right from the beginning. I have a soft spot for Comes a time since I caught a very good one in my first show even though I didn't know what the hell I was witnessing at the time.

You can't just go by recruiting classes today because it gets redistributed through the portal. I'm an Ohio State fan (grew up in Ohio) and UC fan (alum). Ohio State brings in 4 and 5 stars every year and a lot don't see the playing time they expect and transfer, like Williams to Alabama, but must go to good mid level teams like UC. UC has 2-3 players that will go in the first round of the draft this year and another couple that will go 2nd day. They can play with anyone this year. I hope they get the chance.

I was thinking the same thing while watching that PSU/IL game. A lot of games turned out to be more interesting than expected yesterday, that's what makes college football so great.

At least you control your own destiny. Our classes have progressively gotten better in the Fickel era and don't forget about the transfer portal. I bet Penn St. wishes they still had Levis last Saturday

I think Oregon, Oklahoma and Iowa will all lose a game down the stretch. Losing Verdell is huge for Oregon. As a Cincy alum, I sure hope we get a shot if we run the table. I think we can hang with most of the top teams and win with a few breaks. I think we could run the table in any league/ division except the two SEC divisions and big ten east. The one thing we are still a little behind on is building up offensive line talent, we have some pretty good young guys but our like us so a year or two away.

I hope your right but a long way to go. Good football weekend for me going to the UC v Temple game tonight and Bengals v Packers Sunday.

You can bet I'll be cheering for the Irish the rest of the way
