Hence the reason why I got the roster update. So I could make this as accurate as possible. Kind of a shock NCAA 2014 hasn't gone up in price I think like any sports game, it decreases in value over time. Plus, I don't really see this as being the last College Football game. They'll find a way to make another one.

I've computer simmed it, so the computer controls both sides. Holy crap. Major game changer possibly going on in the second quarter of this game. {Spoiler}Marcus Mariotta left the game in the second quarter due to a strained quadricep and is out for the rest of the game.

If anything, I think someone will make another game like Backbreaker, but set up for a college game and without putting any emphasis on player likenesses.

It's amazing how everyone almost automatically is picking Oregon. Nearly everyone assumed Alabama would kill Ohio State and they were wrong and what happens? They do the same thing again and give Ohio State no chance. Honestly, that was the main reason why I switched my pick to Ohio State. How long can people honestly not give Ohio State any credit/chance? Don't get us wrong. Ohio State definitely has a chance, especially as was said, if Oregon keeps losing offensive starters due to failing their UAs. In my case, I spent the majority of my life living no more than 20 miles way from the University of Oregon. Only way I wouldn't root for the Ducks in anything is if the Beavers had a killer team and a shot at winning championships as I'm attending school at that OSU.

ESPN is offering the MegaCast again. Twelve or more options this year.

It'd be fun to see Oregon finally get over the hump. They've been so good for so long but just always fall short. It'd be a nice story.

Bleacher Report's Matt Miller reports that former TCU redshirt sophomore DE Devonte Fields, who played last season at Trinity Valley Community College, is "likely heading to a junior college instead of testing the NFL draft."

Alright, so I simulated the National Championship last night, and I'm giving you the 2015 FAN College Football Playoff National Championship!! Now we need some fitting music to begin this. LET'S GET TO IT!!! Ohio State started off with the ball, and marched right down the field with Cardale Jones leading them in for a touchdown to put the Buckeyes on the board. Oregon comes right back behind Heisman Trophy winner Marcus Mariota and march right back down the field for a touchdown, tying the game up. But the Buckeyes show they're willing to run with the Ducks, and march once again down the field, scoring another touchdown. After one, it was 14-7 Buckeyes. But the Winds of Change were blowing in the second quarter, and the Ducks moved with the winds, going down the field and scoring another touchdown. However, Mariota was injured taking it in for 6 and would be taken to the locker room for further evaluation. It is revealed he has a strained quadricep, and is out for the rest of the game. In comes second string quarterback Jeff Lockie, or as he's known to almost everyone outside of Eugene, "WHO?" But late one drive, Ohio State goes for it on 4th and 2, and are stuffed in the backfield. This turned out to be a momentum changer, as the Ducks march down and get another touchdown, this time with Lockie behind the helm. And even though he isn't the superstar that Mariota is, he is still capable of leading this Duck team. Ducks up 21-14. Ohio State looks to come right back, but JONES IS PICKED OFF!!! The Ducks find an opening, and after the pick, march it right down field and score again, putting themselves up 28-14. Ohio State tries to shake it off, not unlike Taylor Swift, and march back down the field, but JONES IS PICKED OFF AGAIN!!! The Ducks have all the Big Mo, and go down field to score a field goal as time expires, giving them a 31-14 lead into the half. Both teams were fairly close in passing yards, as Ohio State lead Oregon, 104-102 in passing yards. However, the Ducks just ran all over the field, with 32 rushes for 303 yards, outperforming Ohio State with their 17 rushes for 111 yards. But the big factors were the two interceptions and the one big stop on Fourth Down by the Ducks. So, you're all probably, thinking. "Well, this one's over with. The Ducks are in the driver's seat, they get the ball to start the second half, and Ohio State can't overcome these odds." Oregon got the ball to start, but couldn't do anything with it, and had to punt it away. Ohio State got the ball and took it down field, but could only come up with a field goal, and are now down by 14. Oregon starts to go to work on offense again, but Lockie's inexperience shows up, and he FUMBLES THE BALL!!! The Buckeyes pick it up, and LOOK AT THE FAT MAN RUN!!! HE'S RUMBLIN', STUMBLIN', BUMBLIN' ALL THE WAY TO THE ENDZONE!!! Touchdown Buckeyes, and they go into the final quarter down by 7!! The momentum has shifted completely towards the Buckeyes favor now!! In the fourth quarter, Lockie tries to get things going, but can't do so, and the Ducks are once again forced to punt. The Buckeyes get the ball, and march down the field and score once again! We are tied up at 31 after Ohio State tears off 17 unanswered points!! After getting the team calmed down on the sidelines, the Ducks go at it once again, and march back down the field to score, going up 38-31. But the Buckeyes won't be denied, as they march back down the field, and tie it up at 38 again!! The Ducks get the ball back, and drive late into the final quarter, and TAKE THE LEAD AGAIN WITH ANOTHER TOUCHDOWN!!! The Ducks lead 45-38 with less than an minute to go. The Buckeyes drive past midfield, but must hurry as time ticks away. As the clock expires, Jones heaves a prayer near the endzone, but it's tipped away incomplete!! The Ducks survive in what many will call the Game of the Century!! Random person: "But it didn't have the SEC in i-" THE GAME OF THE CENTURY!!!!

This is going to be an interesting game.
This isn't your father's Ohio State- Tresselball down 21-6 would have been game over.
Oregon gets another crack at the title, but this time it's a completely different opponent (with all due respect to Joey Bosa, he's not quite Nick Fairley)

No SEC, no FSU, a couple fresh faces in the game, and best of all: I DON'T HAVE TO FORCE MYSELF TO WATCH RAW!

Go Ducks. Ohio state did wonders all year. They are amazing. But the shit talk on Facebook from Ohio state fans has exceeded even Bama fans in its annoyingness. I don't want to hear eight months of "we are the champions" if they win tonight. Go ducks!

So it sounds as if Penn State is gonna get all the wins back and have their sanctions reconsidered. So much for that punishment the NCAA gave them

As obnoxious as my fellow Buckeye fans can be, we deserve a little break. We use Ohio State to cover our shame and disappointment in the Bengals and even more so the Browns.

The Buckeye fans are annoying? The amount of Oregon ass kissing online is the main reason why I switched my pick to OSU, not my loyalty to the Big Ten. It was Oregon and Oregon fans arrogance and over confidence that changed my mind.

I do think this game will be closer than people think. Or at least Oregon won't just run over Ohio St. Deadspin brought up some good points. Ohio State's offensive strength is rushing and their defensive strength is defending the pass. And Oregon's offensive strength is passing and their defensive weakness is rushing(for perspective, Oregon was in the 50s in terms of rush defense this year, and OSU ran all over Wisconsin and Bama who had considerably higher ranked rushing defenses, statistically).
Not saying for certain the game will be close, just saying statistically it looks like the game should be close and whichever defense breaks first will probably be the loser.

I think this game is going to be extremely close or Oregon's going to blow them out of the stadium. I'm scared to pick anything after the OSU/Alabama game. I didn't expect Ohio State to have a prayer and they pushed Alabama around. So who knows. I am admittedly pulling for Ohio State for the simple fact that, if they win, surely Urban Myer deserves more respect than Nick Saban.

So much for that punishment the NCAA gave them The moral of the story, kids: You can have a child molester on campus, cover it up, and still possibly get away with it with very little recourse. God I wanna throw up if this happens.
