  1. 2007 Preseason and Regular season Polls

    OSU Really #1 - Hell Yes! Everytime I hear these sports analysts (especially everyone but Donnan or Holtz on ESPN) talk about Ohio State being #1 by default I want to kick my television. When they say LSU is really the best and USC and Florida still having a chance at the NC I wonder if they...
  2. S Anderson Russell (official thread)

    Anderson Russell is listed as a starter for the Michigan State game in the weekly depth chart released by Ohio State football office. He's backed up by Gant and Coleman is backed up by Jamario. It goes on to list Ray Small as Russell's replacement for kick returns.
  3. Better Than 2006?

    I'm not sure what the debate is. You seem to be writing what you think while I'm trying to relay what the coaches are saying. Barring injury in practice, Beanie will play against Kent State and could have returned against Purdue. That's from Jim Tressel. He and Dick Tressel say Herron will play...
  4. Better Than 2006?

    "The Ozone" has quotes from Tressel on Saine's condition.
  5. Better Than 2006?

    Coach Tressel has since taken the stance that we need the best players available. He's not burning Herron's redshirt in garbage time, but he made it clear that if we need him in a tough game, he'll play him. This is obviously, as I pointed out in my post, predicated by the injury situation and...
  6. Better Than 2006?

    You obviously have the right to your opinion but at least get your facts straight. Brandon's injury was not that serious... he played in the game that I've watched 5 times now. Jim Tressel has said he'll play even more in the Kent State game. I've followed Brandon since his days at Piqua... he...
  7. Better Than 2006?

    Anybody else onboard? I agree with Piano. Boeckman may not be the athlete Smith was, but he's developing into a hell of a quarterback (41-14) . Robiskie may not have Ginn's flash, but he'll end the season with more touchdowns and receiving yards. Small has Ginn's flash and he'll end the...
  8. Better Than 2006?

    I didn't mean for my toungue-in-cheek comment to sidetrack this thread. There is no way Notre Dame should beat USC.. but this year I wouldn't be surprised. I was only pointing out that Ohio State is one of the few teams impressively beating the teams they're supposed to beat. Many have mentioned...
  9. Better Than 2006?

    In a season of "no fucking ways"... isn't that the ultimate Touchdown Jesus justice?
  10. Better Than 2006?

    Don't look now but College Football News, Sports Illustrated and other media outlets are starting to realize that their 41-14 judgement of Ohio State showed their knee-jerk ignorance. Their prevailing question is what we're all talking about now: Could OSU (the team, not Troy Smith) actually be...
  11. Better Than 2006?

    Coach Tressel has already said the best people available will play and even took Boom Herron on the Minnesota trip - maybe even Purdue. With Beanie's ankle problems I predict that in that sometime in the heat of battle in our last 5 games we're going to unleash Herron. How good is beanie +...
  12. Better Than 2006?

    For the record I said Robiskie is a better RECEIVER, Ginn is FASTER and Small will eventually replace Ginn's contributions. That's the same thing you're saying.
  13. Better Than 2006?

    The post was meant to be a direct comparison to the 2006 team. I'm saying that to the best of his ability, Tressel has corrected the problems on defense that allowed Michigan and Florida to put so many points up and is crafting a balanced offense that doesn't go through one man. Winning the Big...
  14. Better Than 2006?

    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...
  15. Game Thread Game Ten: Ohio State 38, Wisconsin 17 (final)

    Ohio State: Wisconsin? Whenever I try to envision how the Bucks will break out this season, I can't help but see the style of last year's Wisconsin team with a better, more opportunistic defense. The pundits put them and Michigan as pre-season favorites, but can't we potentially do what Wisky...
  16. Interesting Numbers

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

    Did You Know that Ohio State has never played Florida? When we win it will be a great recruiting tool.
  19. Game Thread Game Ten: #1 tOSU 17, Illinois 10 (11/4/06)

    3 more 17-10's (OSU) and we're National Champions!
  20. Game Thread Game Ten: #1 tOSU 17, Illinois 10 (11/4/06)

    We played nailbiters in 2002. Today was simply a hard fought victory... and as hard as it is to swallow every championship team has at least one in a season. Here's what I saw: First, Illinois has some top-flight athletes who wanted to make a statement at home against the #1 team in the...
