Let's Go Buckeyes....Let's GO!!!

 

[Steve19]

It's nearly midnight in Africa and I must sign off. But I leave you with a final thought. How about that GameDay crew at the really exciting game, Utah vs BYU. How much did this cost ESPN today?

Oh yeah and how do you spell ass-kickin'?

Not that it matters, but did the GameDay crew predict that we would win?

 

[buckeyebri]

Are you kidding, Gameday thinking we would win not hardly.

This should be a boone for recruiting for all of the kids that were at the game.

 

[SanClementeBuck]

NO. GDay Herb & Corset said weasels win. Herbie had it 24-21. Foolish fellow for an ex-Buck.

 

[Clarity]

Fowler picked us to win, I believe.

 

[buckeyebri]

you are correct Clarity, Fowler picked the upset..not that I was watching ESPN or anything

 

[OSUsushichic]

If this game is any indication of the future, it's VERY bright. I'm already excited for next year!

 

[PlaywithPride21]

Beating scUM is so very, very SWEET!!!!! :osu4:

That was a GREAT game! Congrats to the seniors especially!

Beating scUm is an amazing feeling no matter how it happens, but this one was especially sweet. We whooped them up and down the field, we played inspired and totally dominated. Hopefully they will have no shot at the Big 10 or the Rose Bowl and its all because of the Bucks, wow i cant remember a more satisfying end to a mediocre season..... congrats Bucks and seniors!!!

 

[GoBux20]

A win over Michigan also cures the common cold

A bowl win would be some icing on the cake...

Gentlemen: Look around you. Try to remember the moment. This is what we wait for every year. It is our culture. It is our destiny. It is our meaning. It is what we and every generation after us will yearn for.

Damn this is great!

Well said! Since 1970, my family and I have lived for this game and moments like this. :cheers:

 

[BrutusMaximus]

I want to appologize. I am eating some crow hardcore. I really didnt give us much of a chance going in. Tell you what, I really dont think Tress was calling the plays throughout the game, or at least that sure didnt look like him. Now after we had the 34-14 lead, yeah that was definitely him :)

 

[SouthHighStreet]

Thank the Gods for today's victory. And here is on to kicking some SEC ass at the Alamo Bowl!!!



By the way, I think Fox should have tackled Braylon on that TD catch. Better to take a 15 yd penalty then a TD.

I said the same thing at the time - but right now - who cares?
