What are the chances we knock him out the game? :ohhh:

Is he in for a rude awakening?

Actually, he's probably right.

If you watched the game against OU, he was beginning to get a little banged up on that knee in the 2nd quarter. He was moving a little slower after plays. Kept stopping and adjusting his kneebrace, etc.

And if you notice he didn't run too much in the 2nd half.

I think if the game depends solely on his legs tomorrow, they might be in trouble.

On Monday night, Ohio State will relinquish its reign as college football’s national champion to Alabama or Clemson.

But the Buckeyes have kept hold of a more lucrative title: college football’s most valuable program.

Ohio State’s football team leads the country with a value of $946.6 million, according to an annual study by Ryan Brewer, an assistant professor of finance at Indiana University-Purdue University Columbus. This is Ohio State’s second consecutive year atop the rankings after it overtook Texas, which places second at $885 million and has the nation’s largest revenue at $128 million. Michigan places a distant third at $811.3 million.

Brewer analyzed each major program’s revenues and expenses and made cash-flow adjustments, risk assessments and growth projections to calculate what a college team would be worth on the open market, if it could be bought and sold like a professional franchise.

Overall, the value of Football Bowl Subdivision teams has dropped 1.8% on average from last year despite cash flows increasing 18% and revenues growing 9.6% year over year. The reasons for the drop were concerns about concussions and football’s safety, declining youth football participation, lack of resolution over pay-for-play concerns, and the scheduling of the College Football Playoff, which saw ratings for the semifinals fall by nearly 40% when played on New Year’s Eve this year, as opposed to New Year’s Day. Ohio State’s value dipped from more than $1.1 billion last year while the Buckeyes are also the lone team now worth more than $900 million, down from four such teams a year ago.


Alabama had the second highest revenue ($120 million) among FBS teams but ranks fifth on the list with a value of $694.9 million. Still, that’s nearly three times Clemson’s $237.5 valuation, which was the lowest of the four teams in the College Football Playoff and places 30th nationally.
