Please tell me I'm having a nightmare -- too much Chipotle right before bedtime and my unconscious mind's running amok.
Are the Columbus, Ohio police actually investigating whether someone used counterfeit pretend-currency to pay for a lap dance at a strip club?
Are the citizens of central...
Now that we've been informed we'll be watching the 'The SBC scUM-OSU Classic' every November instead of that antiquated old 'scUM Game', it occurred to me that there might be some other, heretofore untapped, money-grubbing schemes that GeigerCo could exploit. I can think of a couple, but...
This one looks like a lost cause at the moment. A major Washington Post article without even a mention of tOSU. But father and son change their thinking pretty frequently according to Mom, so anything is possible.
Let's hope Teddy G. has a monster remainder of the season and stars big in the...
JR:
Keep working hard on your school work. Do exactly what your doctors tell you with your knee. Once it's healed, hit the weight room to get it strong. Keep your mind completely positive -- refuse to allow negativity to enter your thinking. And say your prayers.
Plenty of guys, who...
Is there any way we can keep Stewart away from TV and the sports page on Sunday, so he won't get the college football scores? Maybe keep him in church all day?
Talent, Motivation and Gameplan
There are three essential ingrediants to winning football games. You need talent, you need motivation and you need a good gameplan.
tOSU clearly has the talent -- thanks to good recruiting by the coaching staff.
tOSU seems to have the motivation -- great...
Jack Tatum was probably the best we'll ever see
Jack Tatum was perhaps the best safety ever to play college football.
His reputation for hard hitting, and his monicker 'the Assassin', hurt his career somewhat when he cleanly hit Darryl Stingley in an NFL pre-season game and left him...
Nice one, Mili.
I was a big Zwick defender too and still think he has great potential. But I now agree that Smith should be given a shot. The 'once was' championship season is only a memory now. The Buckeyes are playing for a December bowl game and as practice for next year. There is...
We all know that Wisky's QB is a potential achilles heel for Alvarez and that tOSU is likely to stack against the run and make him beat us through the air.
So... there is actually something the fans can do to help win this game. Scream. If you're in the stadium Saturday, rattle Wisky with...
The Musbarger factor. Hmmm. Interesting theory.
It's certainly possible to win an emotional game like this one by 23. Or lose it by 23. Though neither is likely. Looks like two struggling offenses against two pretty damn good defenses. Logic would tell us to expect a low scoring slugfest...
Twelfth man needs to step up
One thing we can do -- we the fans in the stands -- to help win this game is to make noise when the Wisky's QB is over center. Deafening crowd noise can rattle an unproven QB, screw-up pass timing, make audibles difficult, lead to offensive off sides penalties and...
I'll go with an offensive lineman for a change of pace. Alex Boone.
Running backs are the traditional choice, but last year's winner tarnished the Mr. Football reputation a little, so I think they'll go with a squeaky clean future Buckeye.
Fire Up, Bucks!
You are exactly right. Wisconsin has been our nemesis for the past 20 years, perhaps as much so as scUM. Beating them in a normal year, when tOSU is cruising, is a hugely important challenge. But beating them this year, at home, when we are struggling mightily to mesh as a...
Here are the losing picks for this week:
Texas
Ohio St.
scUM
Georgia
LSU
California
Nebraska
Maryland
Notre Dame
Michigan St.

You're getting awfully PC lately, Nutty, and you don't have much of a sense of humor. Maybe you need to load some more smiley emoticons to the site, so we can let you know when we're being facetious.
GPA is a meaningless stat anyway, Drummerboy. Ever hear of grade inflation? So actually you...
Football at tOSU level is as close to NFL-caliber as you can get, within the NCAA rules, of course. And in the NFL every team needs a skilled back-up QB, because defenses are blitz-happy and QBs are going down every week -- to sprains, concussions, etc. More and more Division 1 college teams...
