To Mississippi State: Is beating Auburn still considered a quality win? To Alabama: Does sqeaking by Arkansas and LSU and losing to Ole Miss make you top 4? If Ole Miss loses at Arkansas or beats MSU why should you be there? If either of you lose to Missouri (lost to Indiana) or Georgia (lost to...

From Pete Futiak, College Football News Virginia didn’t come into the season expecting to win the ACC title, but is was supposed to be a player in the conference race thanks to a decent talent base, a rising coaching staff, and a nice upside overall. At the very least, this was expected to be...

Now that we know TP won't be there it seems we should get back to the kind of offense that won us our last NC...something more along the lines of what Wisconsin is doing. You'll remember that back then Krenzel wasn't exactly lights-out but he always made the throw that counted. We've got a...

When I think back to the National Championship debacle I can honestly say now that I saw a loss coming because of some glaring problems we had on both sides of the ball just waiting to be exposed by a good team. On defense, the loss of Anderson Russell was huge in the end as it made us depend on...

2007: 15 players; 3.8 avg. stars 2006: 20 players; 3.6 avg. stars 2005: 18 players; 3.5 avg. stars 2004: 24 players, 3.25 avg. stars 2003: 15 players; 3.47 avg. stars 2002: 24 players; 3.75 avg. stars Technically, from a value standpoint... this is Tressel's best class!

If (when) the Buckeyes win Monday...what is your final top 25?

There's growing speculation that Ohio State and Michigan will play again for the National Championship... indeed I think I was the first person to mention it on this forum. This would be possible if there are no undefeated teams except for the Ohio State-Michigan winner and the game is close...

If Ohio State and Michigan each go 11-0 and we beat them in a classic match-up, it seems that among the possibilities is a rematch in the National Championship game. If USC loses late, the SEC is involved in their usual scrum and West Virginia hiccups against Louisville or Rutgers... why not?

We've got to stay focused and take care of business. The CFN rankings of OSU's remaining opponents before Michigan: Bowling Green - 101 Michigan State - 42 Indiana - 99 Minnesota - 45 Illinois - 62 Northwestern - 89 No let up.... no mercy.

Ohio State lost to a team with a freshman quarterback? Ohio State was ranked in the top five and lost to a team with a freshman quarterback? A Jim Tressel-coached team lost to a team with a freshman quarterback? With all the fear I'm hearing about Texas, Colt McCoy's inexperience is being...

Does anybody else out there think Indiana is due to make some noise this year. While they only went 4-7 last year, they did a lot of good things. This could be good for Ohio State because Indiana plays Iowa, Michigan State and Michigan at home and might be able to steal one of those games. If...

With the emergence of Troy Smith have we ever had an offense with this much potential at OSU? I've been an ardent Buckeye fan since 1967 and I've seen our teams with great running backs, receivers and offensive lines but with either an athletic or drop-back QB. The former's inability to pass and...

Here's another fun way to look at the possible outcome of this year's Big Ten campaign. I'll call it the Probability Poll. The asterick marks games in perenthesis that I think that could go either way. The games on the right without perenthesis are probable losses. Ohio State 9-3* (@Texas...

From an obviously bitter Michigan fan, but too damned funny not to post here: With the revamping of the Wonderlic test the players should score much higer now. Here are some sample questions of the newly revised Wonderlic. #9 does hit home. 1. If the Ohio State tailback gets $42,000 from a...

Anybody else get the feeling that Texas is going to smash USC tomorrow. It appears to me that the national championship was really settled when the Longhorns eked one out in Columbus and may well be determined this year (next season) when we visit Austin.

Vince Young's TD pass to Sweed against us is named his number 1 highlight in 2005 by ESPN.

With the ink not yet dry on the 2005 season looking ahead turned out to be a real treat. The team and the schedule lay out nicely for a run at the National Championship. 1) Troy Smith will be a legitimate Heisman Trophy candidate. Should they return the favorites are Reggie Bush and Vince...
