what does anybody say if you are the person on a florida team being told ron lewis said "he called the 90s bulls teams great and then he called you guys just good.......what is your response to that?"

this would be mine.:huh: "and......???"

I think part of it is UF is known by two colors, unlike OSU, UK, Sparty. I think the following graphic looks like UF colors (all I changed was the orange), but the orange clashes and takes away from the simple design.



It did make me think of kentucky for donovan, but that may be accurate as well. :biggrin:
I just noticed they put your graphic on the front page of the OSU Scout site. Well done.

I don't know, it kind of looked to me like Noah was making fun of the reporter's attempt to gin up controversy.

He obviously was, but a lot of OSU fans live for moments like this, when they think their team is being disrespected. So, don't spoil their fun. :roll1:

not in their minds. since ron lewis thinks the bulls were greater than the current day gators i guess thats an obvious insult and that ohio state is not impressed at all. fact being is if we saw the gators as great as the bulls of the past then we would actually be OVERLY impressed.

I don't think that this is anything at the end of the day. Lewis didn't say they were crap and he didn't disrespect them and Florida know that.

But the real point is this: who cares? Neither team will play harder or gain some motivational advantage. In fact, I am rather pleased that Ohio State aren't saying, "uh-oh, they whooped us, let's hope we can keep this from being embarrassing."

Who cares? Let's just see what happens tonight.

One more thing. I think we have a good chance to win it all, but if we are getting beat, let's keep the negative viewpoints out of the game thread. Florida is a tough team and we will need a lot of luck tonight to win. Ohio State is a tough team and Florida will need a lot of luck to win. Players on neither team are perfect and there is no reason to disrespect ours. This is the best finish we've had in more than a generation already.

Let's be proud of our Buckeyes and ignore anyone who says otherwise.
:oh: :osu: :io:

agreed....ive heard numerous reports of people claiming they would never enter florida wearing osu clothing again if we just so happened to lose......thats just poor pride for your program right there and those people are a disgrace to it. i think our chances are much better then what people and the media are giving us. win or lose its the first time we have reached the national championship game since the 60s so its a great accomplishment nonetheless and ill wear my osu colors anywhere, anyplace, anytime regardless of the result.

I never even attended tOSU, and I'd proudly wear Scarlet and Gray into Hell, knowing full well that Urban Meyer is the devil.

Stupid OSU fans.

I think you could make that very same statement about sports fans, probably especially college sports fans, in general. It's nothing unique to OSU.

Agreed. Couldn't believe people were rooting for UCLA because they DIDNT want flordia (for the fear of getting beat by them again) fuck that, I was rooting for UF saturday.
