Don't. This is the last time you'll be able to see your Bucks play a game until September. I didn't leave the ass kicking NIU got until it was over. I even sat in my seat for another 15 minutes.

This team gave you a helluva season. No reason yo hang your head. This is the team you loved all season, and for guys like Smith, Ginn, etc. it's the last time you'll ever see them in a Buckeye uniform.

Well said.

If we were going to lose, I'm glad it went down like this. There was no heartbreak. The better team won tonight. There was no doubt. Our boys played hard, played their best. It simply wasn't enough today. I remain ever proud of our Buckeyes. Let's shake their hands and go home hoping next year is better. Let us not forget the many things this team has given us to be proud of!

Sorry I would rather lose a game where we weren't embarassed in. Yes the better team won, but this was ridiculous.

Think about it...i mean "WHO" have we really beat? That's why you tune into college gameday every saturday is for analysis right. Figure it out.

Like i said the past 2 years saturdays have been wonderful but tonight is just what it is, a wake up call. OSU and the BIG10 are not that good.

Right, a team that is not that good goes into Texas and stomps them, then proceeds to win out the rest of the season along with a win against Michigan when everyone said their defense would overwhelm us. We played our worst game of the season at the worst possible time, end of story. To dump all over them now only shows you to not be a true fan.

Wow... did you come over from Bucknuts? :shake:

One game does not prove that this group is terrible or that we haven't beaten anyone meaningful... it just shows that even very good teams have bad games once in a while.

Im not saying we are terrible, But why are we the elite? This isn't a "bad" game. This is us playing out of our league. Look at the big 10, 1 win during bowl season. We beat 7-5 michigan last year. A horrible NOTRE DAME team, Texas that went on to the alamo bowl and michigan again this year that got waxed by usc like we are getting waxed by FLorida. We are not as good as our #1 ranking. I hate saying it but it's true.

We are good but out of our league.

One thing I can say is theat it WASN'T SEC speed that beat us!!!

No it's even worse...

The SEC physically dominanted the supposedly stronger Big Ten team.

It actually doesn't help their argument in the literal sense, but you know what they'll continue to bloviate about.

In 1902, Ohio State played Michigan in Ann Arbor and lost the game 86-0. Fred Cornell, who attended the game, was a member of the Ohio State University Glee Club and a four letter athlete. On the train ride home he began to compose a song for Ohio State, by writing phrases on the back of an envelope. Inspired by the loss and hearing the Wolverine crowd sing The Yellow and Blue, Cornell proceeded to pen the hymn. Carmen Ohio was first performed by The Ohio State University Glee Club soon thereafter, in 1903. Carmen Ohio gained in popularity after it was first published in The Lantern on October 10, 1906 and appearing in the Ohio State-Michigan game program on October 20, 1906. The word "Carmen" means "song or poem", in Latin and Spanish, and hence the translated title of the alma mater means Song of Ohio or Ohio's Song.


Carmen Ohio
Oh come let's sing Ohio's praise
And songs to Alma Mater raise
While our hearts rebounding thrill
With joy which death alone can still
Summer's heat or winter's cold
The seasons pass the years will roll
Time and change will surely (truly) show
How firm thy friendship ... OHIO!
These jolly days of priceless worth
By far the gladdest days on earth
Soon will pass and we not know
How dearly we love Ohio
We should strive to keep thy name
Of fair repute and spotless fame
So in college halls well grow
And love thee better ... OHIO! Though age may dim our mem'ry's store
We'll think of happy days of yore
True to friend and frank to foe
As sturdy sons of Ohio
If on seas of care we roll
Neath blackened sky or barren shoal
Thoughts of thee bid darkness go
Dear Alma Mater...OHIO!
