Nice words but you can be sure he and ESPN are hoping the Sooners lose a game so Ohio St can get in the playoffs.

I'm not so sure. While all of us want our team to be successful, Herbie isn't any different. But do I think they would be ok w/ OU. Baker's edge, new HC, etc. After all, OU did beat tOSU and Baker did plant a flag. It'll play well nationally.

I don't believe this at all. No doubt deep down Herbstreit enjoys seeing his Alma Mater succeed. I wouldn't blame any guy for thinkin this way about the place they played football at. But he is the one who was very critical of Ohio State a handful of years ago causing the Ohio State fanbase to turn on him, while also being the most pro-OU guy at ESPN the last 15+ years.

If my memory serves me he moved to Nashville to get his family away from the vitriol being spewed his way in Columbus.
