None of those games have turned out to be any good. I really thought those coins attached to gaming would do a lot better than they have.

I think chain link is the most practical of the smaller coins (also on ethereum block chain), I stopped buying all coins a couple years ago, but I may get a little more of that before it pops.

Apparently they’ve been getting better since last cycle. Everyone is busting a nut over that new game “Off the Grid”. Haven’t gotten a chance to actually see what it’s like though.

I'll check it out. Cornucopia was supposed to be revolutionary for people who like those kinds of games. Just no staying power. We'll see though. I'm cheering for Matic to make my ethereum better haha

Hearing others talk about how teams ahead of Tennessee blew out their opponents and Tennessee didn't, which justifies others being ahead of them. Hopefully Heupel sees this and doesn't take the foot off the gas EVER AGAIN. Still pissed how we let some teams hang around longer than we should have. Run it up forever

Don't know if he's gonna be the next Larry Bird or anything...

But as hard as he works and how well he takes coaching I sure hope DK has a good 10-12 year career in the NBA where he's not just getting the yo-yo treatment with two way contracts.

Haha it feels good to see our investments pick up steam. I remember how much my heart sank Jan-Feb of 2022 when I was watching all the money I put in lose 60-90% of its value lol. Crypto is a wild ride lol. Let enjoy easy mode for the next 6-12 months and properly prepare for when it gets hard again. I’ve definitely learned my lesson about taking profits on those coins not named BTC.

Have we let teams hang around or is that the best we are capable of doing? I am going with the latter and the stats back it up.

I’m wondering does OSU do enough to beat Indiana but not so bad to hurt their chances of making the playoff? It’s not a rivalry game to OSU, and the B1G might ask them to “help a brother out” and keep the game looking competitive for IU.

The annoying thing is that the "opponent" win % for us is being drug down by 3 teams...

Chattanooga, 6-5
NC State, 5-6
Kent State, 0-11
OU, 5-5
Arkansas, 5-5
Florida, 5-5
Bama, 8-2
Kentucky, 4-6
Miss State, 2-8
Georgia, 8-2
UTEP, 2-8
Vandy, 6-4

And Miss State has played at Texas, at Georgia, vs A&M at Tennessee and will play at Ole Miss

Would be hilarious though if Kentucky wins the next 2 games to get bowl eligible and puts Texas out of the playoff lol

We really need a couple of those 5 win squads to hit 6.

You shouldn't. Good teams need to look dominant.

I hate this narrative that Indiana sucks keeps getting louder and louder before this game. My fear is they come out and jump on Ohio state.

This is football, not soccer. Blowouts shouldn’t really matter

I'm hearing that the committee is really concentrating on coming up with the 🐎 💩 reasons why they put women's soccer teams at 5, 6 and 7, ahead of Alabama, Ole Miss, Georgia, and Tennessee. They are also focus grouping phrases like, turf control, score management, the ear test, hidden goodness of play, and latent talent as sales pitches.
Should make for an exciting show Tuesday.

Worried about that too. But OSU has to worry about another loss after this game that could really hurt them so blowing out Indiana is pretty important for them. If they barely beat Indiana and lose to Michigan and miss the big 10 title game there’s a case for leaving them out. They’d probably still get into due to biases but I think they’d like to avoid that.

Fans forget Nico is still a freshman, and two losses with a freshman QB ain’t shabby in the SEC.

I’m not 100% sure but I don’t think any other playoff contender has a RS Freshman QB and LT. I know none of the SEC contenders do. I know Pedo State has Drew Allar but idk about their LT. They also had a way easier schedule. People need to put this into consideration when gauging the success of this season compared to these other teams.

Same. Luckily I bought most of mine late 21 early 22. But they definitely went down. It's nice to have broken even, and I'm kind of excited to cash out over the next year, pay off all my debt, and get back in during the next downturn as a debt free person.

With IU's offense you can't keep it within 2 possessions...they'll eventually hit a big play or something.

2nd in the nation in PPG
23rd in passing yards per game
9th in passing TDs per game
47th in rushing yards per game
6th in rushing TDs per game

soft schedule or not they're still doing that against the same BIG10 opponents as Ohio State, Oregon, and Penn State
