Lots of time let, but OSU dominating right now, 13-0. Pretty shocked Clemson is playing this poorly so far.
 
I was shocked there was no thread for this.

First round has been pretty boring. Looking pretty clearly it was a top two dominant teams this year and then a pretty big drop off from them.

I wouldn't say Clemson is playing poorly. They're just playing an elite Big 10 opponent with a pass rush and skill players they don't face in the ACC.

The Big 10 has been dominating the Pac 12 and ACC this bowl season so this isn't a surprise.

Ohio State is clearly better, but you're kidding yourself if you think this is Clemson's A game.

OSU has also dropped a couple of touchdown passes too though. Really close to a 24-0 game right now.

Hard to play your A game when you're thoroughly dominated on both lines of scrimmage. Lawrence has been under a massive pass rush all day and Dobbins has huge holes.

This is a talent disparity far more than effort disparity.

This OSU offense would hang 80 on Oklahoma or Baylor.

There's not one conference that plays collectively.

No but you can gain a lot of insight after viewing conference matchups all season and early bowl results. That's why strength of schedule is a thing.

That's why Sagarin and Massey predictors exist.

What's your narrative when the teams from the B1G don't do well?

Poor performance? They beat each other up during the season?

If I was an OSU fan I’d be scared as **** that this isn’t a bigger lead by now.


That's a good point. Two dropped TDs and a wide open screen.

Of the two teams, OSU has made the most mental errors. Should be a 20 point lead.

I heard that hit on Lawrence here in Denver. Ouch. Sunshine isn’t used to taking shots like that.
