For me, this is the biggest ND game in my adult life.

I agree it's a huge game, but really? I'm curious why you don't think the 12' national championship game or the 93' FSU game isn't bigger to you? Not judging, just would like to hear why.

I live in Ohio, went to Ohio State, will likely go back to Ohio State for grad school (I mean I literally have the app open on a tab haha). Many of my friends are insufferable Buckeye fans. Almost all of my family are big fans; three cousins played sports at Ohio State, two were All-Americans. I just come from a big Buckeye family. Fuck em though go Irish.

He said adult life. Neither Buster nor I were "adults" in 2012. Hopefully this game is more like the former than the latter, though.

2016 will be a good year if I get to see Stanley put Bosa on his back on day 1.

Not a matchup that excites me.

Really? A chance to give Urbie a bloody nose? A team that has lost two games in two years? We didn't feel good about LSU last year at this point. I think this is going to be a great game. I was worried that we were going to have to play Houston...THAT would have sucked.

Heck, Buster thinks he was 35 and smarter than everyone else the day he was born ;)

This is what I wanted. We played FSU recently and UH is a no win situation. Certainly a more difficult game but let's get it done.

Negative Reps to anyone who says Fiesta Bowl without writing Battle Frog first.

I live in a house of Ohio state fans as well and trust me they are all the ready to jump on every opportunity to make this miserable for me and allow me to live the carnage all the ann arbor fans experienced last week.

I can honestly say that winning this game would be bigger than winning a national title for my current situation

That makes sense. I'm from Toledo too, so this is very important to me also. I feel like we are going to give them quite the battle with the way our depth will allow us to get after it in preperation for once. Hopefully Jarron and CJ are back for the game too. And hell yeah, go Irish!

I don't like this. Too much family are OSU people. If they win, I'll never hear the end of it. If we win, I'll be a pariah. Also, Urban is a ridiculous coach with a ridiculous level of talent. Unless half their starters get enough DUI's for the cops to supercede Urban's authority to play them, I am very concerned about this game.

I felt a lot better vs LSU last year. They didn't and still don't have a QB. OSU took out their anger on UM and frankly with all our injuries its going to be tough sledding.

No, but I should. I'm not really going to do it. I'm not sure what Battle Frog is, but it really cheapens the Battle Frog Fiesta Bowl.

Never knew they changed it from the Tostitos. Never pay attention to the sponsor name. Excited for the game though.

Wife and her sister are OSU alum and the friend she's bring is a buckeye fan as well. I'm not scared, but I would have liked to play someone other than OSU. They will be ready.
