The ‘demographics’ do not explain why other Big Twn teams are beating them, do they?

How did the Skunkbears fall so fast? Recruiting? [NT] - DonMiller - 5:26pm 11/28/20 (26) [View All]
- tOSU is simply that much better, but Rich Rodriguez bled them dry - ndunabomber - 10:36am 11/30/20
- They really haven't "fallen." They are at their best since Carr. - jakers - 10:01pm 11/28/20
  - Perhaps but 3-3 versus MSU and 0-5 versus tOSU. (1-5 combined at home) gets him gone. - TakethetrainKnute - 12:48am 11/29/20
    - Also embarrassing losses. - Napoleon - 8:43am 11/29/20
  - They are done. Start the bus. [NT] - ColeyO - 11:18pm 11/28/20
- Harbaugh petition: [LINK] - Napoleon - 9:07pm 11/28/20
- Because warp speed was unattainable? [NT] - ColeyO - 5:58pm 11/28/20
- I live near U of M... anf the feeling here is that demographics is killing the Big Ten. - Curly1918 - 5:47pm 11/28/20
  - Likely is some truth that talent and excitement is bigger south, but ND & OSU are top 4 . . . - Napoleon - 10:09am 11/29/20
  - I like your logic here and it justifies joining the ACC permanently and keeping USC permanently on - THEISMANCARR - 9:44pm 11/28/20

  - OSU is on the border of SEC country and immune? That's silly and not true. [NT] - NDavenue - 5:57pm 11/28/20
    - Agree with you on the geographic argument. However, there may be something to the football culture - Frank L - 1:34pm 11/29/20
      - I won't argue with that, but that's not what Curly was saying. - NDavenue - 2:56pm 11/29/20
    - Hmm... have you been to Columbus and do you have a map? [NT] - Curly1918 - 6:05pm 11/28/20
      - That's like saying Indiana borders the SEC. There's virtually zero difference between Indy and Cbus. - NDavenue - 6:17pm 11/28/20
        Indiana is a basketball state. OSU easily takes the cream of the Midwest recruits. [NT] - Curly1918 - 6:22pm 11/28/20
        Columbus has Schmidt's German buffet and restaurant. That alone is a major plus. [NT] - ELP - 8:19am 11/29/20
        
        NDavenue has a strong point. OSU thrives cuz they got Urban and brought the southern practices North [NT] - BaronVonZemo - 8:17pm 11/28/20
        
        Irrelevant. Ohio is an everything state & has 0 geographically or culturally in common with the SEC. [NT] - NDavenue - 6:30pm 11/28/20
        Northern Ohio yes. Southern and rural not so much. - Curly1918 - 7:21am 11/29/20
        Oy vey. And Pittsburgh is a stone's throw away from West Virginia. The entire rust belt... - NDavenue - 10:05am 11/29/20
        
        I don't know. OSU arrest warrants for football players rival all SEC schools. [NT] - oldirish - 8:54pm 11/28/20
        
        Correct. This is has been a Michigan alibi for a while. [NT] - Hibakusha - 7:14pm 11/28/20
        Yep. Grasping at straws to justify why they can't compete with the Buckeyes. - NDavenue - 7:18pm 11/28/20
- How? Because there IS a God. [NT] - Napoleon - 5:35pm 11/28/20
