stonewall 647 Posted October 7, 2016 62% of Ohioans seem to think so. What do you think? Personally, I think the Browns would wipe the floor with them. Their o-line would bulldoze the way for Crowell to run for 275/5 and Pryor would make their secondary look like children. Final score: 68-10. http://sports.yahoo.com/news/ouch-62-percent-of-ohioans-polled-believe-ohio-state-would-beat-the-browns-152351681.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jgcrawfish 232 Posted October 7, 2016 I will take this opportunity to say that I have actually been surprised by the competitiveness of the Browns thus far this year. Starting as many rookies and first timers as they are, I actually figured they were going their asses handed to them every week. They are going to get an epic beatdown this weekend from the Pat though. With that in mind, they would destroy the Buckeyes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sure, but pro teams get embarrassed all the time. All it would take is one DB to fall down on one play and you've got a moon shot TD. They wouldn't win, but they would likely score.

They wouldn't win, but they would likely score. No college offensive line could handle NFL d-linemen. No college QB could read NFL defenses. They would live in the backfield. Tunsil, Fisher, Joeckel...these are guys that were rated as some of the best collegiate offensive linemen. And they had their lunch handed to them thus far. Imagine a freshman guard or tackle that wasn't good enough for the pros. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kilroy69 994 Posted October 7, 2016 If they did not have Pryor I would say yes. The thing is that in the NFL Pryor is not a qb. Against a college team he would focking shred them as a QB. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TonyB1972 1 Posted October 8, 2016 Fan of both teams, but the people that said OSU could beat the Browns are delusional. People ask these things all the time for various teams not doing well, and people about always think one of the top college teams could beat a bottom level NFL team. A college team wouldn't be able to stop a NFL team from ramming the ball down their throat imo. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tanatastic 2,061 Posted October 8, 2016 The trenches would be a joke and the Browns would murder them. Think at even the worst players in the NFL were highly regarded As the best players in college. Wasn't Gabbert the best qb in the nation? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They are going to get an epic beatdown this weekend from the Pat though. With that in mind, they would destroy the Buckeyes. Yeah but they've been starting over since they came back into the league. What a horrible franchise. Terrible from ownership all the way down to the janitor. The NFL needs to deal with the extremely diluted talent pool problem and they can start by getting rid of the Browns and Jaguars franchises. It's addition by subtraction. Sorry but the Browns are the defacto epitome of SUCK. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

polecatt 403 Posted October 8, 2016 This is always a ridiculous argument. Does OSU have some players that are NFL material? Of course. However the Browns have 53 players that already are. They play against NFL talent each week. OSU never does. Even OSU's best players would be mismatched because of that. Also, not that up on OSU's playbook but a lot of college plays and formations would get destroyed by NFL teams. So they would be limited. Any place OSU has a weakness on the field at the college level would get exploited so badly by an NFL team it would be criminal. They would probably have to do like they did in the Clemson game a few weeks ago and play shorter quarters in the 2nd half if not call it altogether. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This game of college all stars against an NFL team ended before I was cognitive of football, but the college boys ended up with a record of 9-31-2 against the pro team: "And yet, every so often the all-stars would manage to put a scare into the pros. After coming within a red-zone fumble and a goal line stand of offing the undefeated 1972 Dolphins—what an asterisk that would have made for!—the all-stars delivered another heart-stopper in ’75, when they fell to the Steel Curtain Steelers by a mere touchdown." Although we are far too P.C. to have any such game today ("One of those young boys might get hurt, heaven forbid!"), and I still have little doubt that the pro team (even the Browns) would dominate.....perhaps the question isn't as absurd as some of you were suggesting.

thomsoad 1 Posted October 9, 2016 I remember a long time ago there was an interview with Michael Irving when he was still playing football and asked that exact same question. Miami had been national champions and were a dynasty when he played for them. He said that while playing for "The U" he firmly believed that they were good enough to compete in the NFL. He then went on to say that after his very first PRESEASON game he knew that there was no way they could have even competed against NFL caliber. Its that much of a difference.

StrikeForce 11 Posted October 9, 2016 No college team could beat a pro team. You have a team with maybe a handful of future NFL rookies, against a team full of NFL players (previously, college all-stars), most with years of NFL experience. No comparison. I'd love to see it happen, though. Reminds me of the "Williams sisters vs men" debate. And that Karsten Braasch guy (ranked 203 in the world at the time), smoked both of them. https://www.theguardian.com/observer/osm/story/0,,543962,00.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
