Eh, if they don't take Nuge, the Texas kicker is the next best choice.

Thats the same thing I thought.....I mean cmon.....Ted Ginn took snaps at quarterback for god sakes...but who cares really, Maisel is an idiot.

OT Daniel Loper Texas Tech
OG Brad Honeycutt Georgia Tech
C Greg Eslinger Minnesota
OG Jason Spitz Louisville
OT Logan Mankins Fresno State

Come on now, honestly, how did he come up with this list? Did he personally sit down and watch their bowl games, and grade their film out? Did he count the amount of pancakes that each lineman had? That cracks me up.

At this moment, Mike Nugent is sitting in disbeleaf, staring at the empty spot next to his Lou Groza Awary that he cleared away for the ESPN 2004-2005 All-Bowl Team Award Brought to you by Ivan Maisel wondering what went wrong...

 

[MililaniBuckeye]

Let's see...Dusty Maggot got the pick because he hit his only FG attempt. So, if he missed it, would he have been the worst place kicker in the bowls?

I agree that Hawk, Nugent and Ginn all deserve serious consideration, but do not forget Pitcock. That guy dominated the line fo schrimmage during the Alamo Bowl. I can't wait for next season.

 

[Taosman]

Just further proof of a conspiracy!

Ivan Maisel

I stopped there. I knew what was coming.

20. Ohio State WR Ted Ginn Jr. — Ginn caught passes, took handoffs and lined up under center when <fstl:categorylink categoryid="191009">Justin Zwick</fstl:categorylink> was hurt. He even made Mike Tirico wet himself in the ESPN booth on at least three occasions. Ginn is ready to join USC's Reggie Bush and Miami's Devin Hester as the most explosive, multi-dimensional players in college football.

[font=Arial, Helvetica]Defensive back: Donte Whitner, Ohio State. The Buckeyes totally shut down Oklahoma State's offense in the Alamo Bowl, and Whitner was a big reason. He had eight tackles, seven of them solo, and didn't allow the Cowboys to score until late in the game.[/font]

[font=Arial, Helvetica]Kicker: Mike Nugent, Ohio State. He had a perfect bowl season, hitting all four of his field goals (37, 35, 41 and 37 yards) and in the process becoming the school's all-time leading scorer. While Ohio State's offense was anything but great in the Alamo Bowl, it got close enough to the end zone for Nugent to put points on the board.[/font]

Anyone who didn't put Edwards on the team after that Rose Bowl is smoking serious crack......who cares what the North Texas RB did versus New Mexico, or whatever Crap Bowl matchup takes place before Dec. 28th or so...............

Yeah, over 400 yards of total offense and almost 35 minutes time of possession with your only real available QB hurt since early in the first quarter is anything but great.
