Ha! Yeah, but most of those yards were against other SEC teams.
POTD! 😂

Texas put themselves in the history book with one of the worst goal line sequences in the history of football. They were first and goal at the freaking 1. I don't know, that call for a run sweep reeks of cowardice. Man up. You are at the 1 goal line run through them.
This guy approves of this post . . . (sorry Bears fans)

About a 20 second 90 yard dash
In Sawyer's defense, it looked like he was giving his convoy time to set up, and it helped because there were a couple of Texas receivers giving chase. If Sawyer really was thinking that, incredibly smart play.

in fall 1982 , Dads Day , UI v Pitt, Tony Eason threw a pick and a Pitt lineman ran it back with 2 teammates surrounding him the entire 75 yards . I think that “dash” took like 25 seconds

Not sure he was thinking anything based on his postgame interview, when he said "I almost blacked out" when the ball bounced into his arms. :)
One of the best postgame interviews I've seen in a while as he also said Ewers' response to him afterward was a playful "Screw you!" The two used to room together at OSU.

You're right. I watched the interview this morning. For a Columbus-area kid who has wanted nothing else than to play football for Ohio State, that had to be a surreal moment.

That would be akin to Kylan Boswell hitting a 3 to put Illinois ahead in a Final Four semifinal (not that I'm trying to speak that into existence or anything . . .)

he's not wrong:
to be clear, the playing field is hardly level. but its a helluva lot more level now

The gap between the AQ and the G5 will widen with the exception of the rare G5 school with a huge NIL base, not even sure what schools that would be. I think it either ends with the AQ forming their yet another division of college football, or some serious guidelines for the FBS need to be implemented.

that gap is gonna be a gulf. another gap will be between the P2 and P3-4. relatively small now, but it's not gonna be for long. thank goodness we're one of the haves

Leonard can’t win the game for ND by running the ball all game

it was impressive tho
Agreed. He had some great efforts and the domer O-line had the OSU front flowing backwards on those short yardage situations. The problem is going to come when ND is forced to pass as we saw on that subsequent domer drive.
