This game is why one should never get all wound up about a bowl game. Ohio State’s offense bears no resemblance to the team that played in the regular season. They still have a defense though and it’s keeping them in the game.

Same topic, different game: Florida State doesn’t have an offense or defense left to take on Georgia. A CBS Sports article I read today said FSU has TWENTY players missing from their two deep roster. And some still think that a big Georgia win proves FSU didn’t belong in the playoff? I don’t think it proves a thing.

Did you watch much OSU football this year? Their offense has been pretty average (as far as their usual expectations). Mizzou is exposing the weakness of the Big 10.

It appears there is a huge difference between the OSU's defense and Tenn's defense!

I think Missouri might have less than 100 yards for the game.

If Tennessee was ever in FSUs position (won’t be because of expanded playoff) I’d be furious as a fan if they bothered to show up to the bowl. FSU was completely screwed because a kid broke his leg. Dumb. Sport is in the toilet.

Only thing keeping me up watching this game is filling my glass with bourbon and scrolling Facebook.

Will anyone reach the redzone? Maybe I’ll do a shot when they do.

This is a fun game to watch. 2 top 10 teams: one at full strength in Missouri, the other down to its true freshman quarterback. Someone will be a hero in this game - who will it be? I am impressed with Ohio State as Missouri beat the brakes off the SEC East teams and is getting stoned by the OSU defense. People are complaining about the bowl games but there is some hidden drama in these matchups that is quite interesting. Drink some YeeHaw beer and enjoy college football at the end of 2023.

That OSU QB is going to have to stop running away and throwing off his back foot. Grow some balls, step into a throw, and show Mizzou they can't just pin ears back every passing play.

This is perfectly the game Ohio State wants to play now. The field is flipped and they’re ahead, so they can just keep leaning on their defense and not making mistakes on offense.

If the score stays this way, they don’t have to be the ones to eventually get desperate or start to force it, Missouri will. And that’s generally what causes the late game mistakes Ohio State’s been winning off of almost all year.
