Number 2 OSU dropped it's first game against Oral Roberts. I just wanted to point that out. First game won since 74.

Yep, took a chance and took OSU to win my bracket.

Oral Roberts has beaten Ohio State more time than Jim Harbaugh has.

Sic em. COVID really screwed us up but the farther we get out from it, the better we should be. I want that Gonzaga matchup that we were robbed of earlier this season.

Are you talking Baylor - Gonzaga? Or something else?

Final Four bound! Sic em Bears. Honestly we should be able to beat Houston, although nothing is guaranteed of course. I just have a feeling we will be playing Michigan for the championship.

National Champs! Never thought we'd be at this level honestly, but we have been a contender now for 2 years.

Baylor was so good that they made that game boring to watch. Congrats to their fans - I guess. I just can’t stand Baylor, rape university and all that.

I don't think our rape rate is any higher than any other university, but even so, it's hard to argue with how the university handled it once it became known- they fired just about everyone.

That being said, to this day there has only been one player actually found guilty. With rape it can be sort of difficult to secure a conviction but still, just one player... The rest acquitted. OU had more than us over the same time period. This was partially a media creation for 3 reasons: 1) Ken Starr was the president, and the liberal media hates him and is always looking to embarrass a prominent Republican; 2) UT Austin largely drove the story because we were beginning to surpass them at everything; 3) Baylor sort of represents about as traditional/WASP of a school as there is nowadays, and again the liberal media hates that. So we had a giant target on our back for unrelated reasons.

In hindsight, Art Briles probably did need to be fired, not necessarily for the reasons stated by the popular narrative as stated by the mob, but because you can't be bringing that atmosphere to a Baptist school. And his text messages that became public showed that he was at least aware of allegations, and his response was to blame the women for hanging around "that bad dude", which is ridiculous. He deserves another shot at this point though.

I’ll fully admit I’m not that invested in the situation or the college, so You know a heck of a lot more about it the I do.

Having one conviction but firing everyone is suspicious. Also, a college will usually have a college town’s police force in their back pocket, so only one conviction is highly suspicious - especially given that everyone was fired.

I guess I’ll take your opinion into how I feel about Baylor but it still “feels” like rape university- kind of like how Penn State is pedo university.
