    Re: Ohio State Football 2012

    Here is an average of team rankings (247, Scouts, Rivals, ESPN):

    1. Ohio State
    2. Alabama
    3. Florida
    4. Notre Dame
    5. Michigan
    6. Ole Miss
    7. LSU
    8. Texas AM
    9. UCLA
    t10. FSU
    t10. Auburn
    12. Georgia
    13. Clemson
    14. Washington
    15. Oklahoma
    16. USC
    17. Nebraska
    18. South Carolina
    t19. Texas
    t19. Oregon
    21. Virginia Tech
    22. Mississippi State
    23. Vandy
    24. Baylor
    25. Tennessee

    Five of the top 10 are from the SEC West, 7 of the top 12 are from the SEC. But OSU topped the board. Normally 16th would be acceptable for most, but oh how USC has fallen...

    USC had some decommits so it wasn't as good as a class it could have been, but it was also a very small class due to sanctions. Smaller classes usually don't rate as high in these type of rankings.

    Yep. USC still had the highest average recruit star player of any class, just had less scholarships to give.

    They also had several guys flip away.

    Hugs, smiling, and interactive Twitter accounts, don't mean winning baseball. Until this community understands that we are cursed to relive the madness.

    Columbus area tOSU fans, are you upset that the spring game is being played in Cincinnati? Some people down here are upset because they don't want tOSU invading their territory but I was thinking how people in the Columbus area feel about not having the game in their city.

    I'm not particularly upset, but I know plenty of people who are up in arms about it. It's also not being televised, so there's a contingent who believe they're being robbed of their God given right to all things Buckeye football. I'm going to spend time with my family, I suggest these people do the same.
    Witty signature.

    Sonny,
    If you had met their families, you wouldn't make that recommendation.

    It was actually televised on Big Ten Network at 7 PM the same night (a friend of mine watched and filled me in on some of it because I wasn't home).
