In case you were wondering: Yes, today was the first day in the history of the countdown that I was seriously tempted to post a picture of a freshman who hasn't played a down yet.

Still not gonna do it; but it's safe to say that this will have been the last countdown in which I don't include his picture (not including countdowns that occur after I have gone to Woody's giant game-watch-party).

Since there are no Buckeyes of particular note who wore today's number in the countdown, I thought perhaps we could have fun with numbers and alliteration.

So here are 7 Buckeyes who wore the number 7 for the scarlet and grey. The first five of them have a last name that starts with the 7th letter of the alphabet.

No worries bud, the game thread will be a nice place for that picture, probably some time in the first half.

While I agree that these changes have altered what I consider college football is all about, and have rendered it pretty much to being a NFL AAA league I'm not about to jump ship yet.
They have considerably have overall lessened the spirit of players being for their Alma mater and made it more of a commercial enterprise. Not that the pride of belonging to tOSU isnt there for those who stay but the transferring is much more apparent. I'm sure we all feel that we wish all the players who pass thru Ohio State would stay while being Rah Rah. All the time displaying the bulldog type of passion and grit as did Woody, or Archie, Hoppy, and a multitude of others, including me.
I will always love being a Buckeye fan and a College football fan just for being an exciting and uplifting part of my life.
Go Bucks!!
:oh:

THIS WAITING NOT ONLY SUCKZ MORE EACH PASSING DAY BUT IS DRIVING ME CRAZY!!!
:getout:
I am glad you still derive pleasure from it. I wish I did. But I just see a bunch of mercenaries who don't care about Ohio State and only about themselves and money. I'd like to snap out of this.

Go Bucks
