I think everyone knew this day was coming when kids would pull out of these bowl games that essentially mean nothing so as not to risk injury and ripping up their winning lottery ticket. It sucks but even a slim chance of getting injured isn't worth it.
I'm sure most kids on the team are disappointed but understand. |

See Notre Dame's Jaylon Smith who lost millions of $$$ because of the serious knee injury he suffered in the Fiesta Bowl last year. RB is a high risk injury position... if you know you are already going to leave for the NFL there is no point in risking an injury by playing in a meaningless bowl game. |

If coaches can leave bowl games to make more money why can't the students?

Stanford ran the **** out of him while he was there. If I were him, I'd skip the ****ing bowl game too.
Do you get pissed when players don't play a pre-season game? |

You're right: the results tell us whether the right choice was made. And the 31-0 humiliation last night "vindicated" my point Ohio State was a terrible, undeserving choice. |

They are extremely young and were clearly unready. I tagged them as a loss. But the loss became a "humiliation" because of 2 game-changing missed field goals, Mike Weber fumbling the ball twice, and 2 or 3 critical dropped 3rd down passes early in the game. That many mistakes is unusual for an Urban Meyer coached team and those missed field goals were a dropkick to the nuts. |
