The most dirty play I saw that involved a LSU Tiger all year was the chop block on Glenn Dorsey. End of story. That was intentionally going out and attempting to injure a player. A star player, at that. Could have cost Dorsey millions.

Love the discussion going on.

Yeah that kid was a true freshman that was thrown across the field by Dorsey earlier in the game. I am just happy for Glenn it was not significantly hurt.

What the Carolina fan who made that video conveniently left out, is that we were penalized HEAVILY for our play in that game. The yardage led to most of their points scored.

For the most part, we don't play "dirty". Yeah, there was some stuff goig on in the Bama game, nut personally, I think they deserved the extra-curricular we gave them. We do commit our share of penalties (and usually the other team's share as well) though. It has been our achilles heel, and kept us from running away with some games this year.

Ummm. I included a portion of the boxscore from the South Carolina/LSU game from this season that was played on September 22nd. According to these numbers, LSU was only penalized 5 times for 39 yards. But you said above that LSU was penalized "HEAVILY" for their disgusting display of poor sportsmanship. Hmmmm.......I don't know. Maybe I'm missing something.

Whatever. Atleast those of us on this side of the ball can take comfort in the fact that SEC referees won't be calling the NC. It'll probably be Big 12 or PAC 10 refs or something like that.

I have actually seen LSU play this season quite a bit on CBS. They never struck me as being a dirty team or anything like that. I didn't see the SoCar game though. I can also remember a Buckeye LB choking a Wisconson QB in the middle of a game a few years back. Heat of the moment and ugly things can happen.

With as much as I have seen Ohio State and LSU play this year, I think this is going to be a really good game. These two teams seem to match up pretty well and I'm looking forward to Jan 7th!

Welcome to Buckeyeplanet. Tell your friends to join you over here for some good back and forth during the build up. Take care.

Go Buckeyes!!!!!!

The Big East has flagged this post for intentional grounding. That's a spot foul, loss of down.

Les Miles is very secretive about injuries, more so than any other coach I have ever seen (And I have been around for awhile) so a lot of people are not aware of just how banged up we have been for several weeks.

Have you heard of a coach named LLLLLLoyd Carr? I guess they rubbed off on each other (no sexual meaning implied)

The level of idiocy displayed by Pac 10 referees and officials is unmatched.

Just this past weekend, the head referee for the Oregon/Oregon St game was an alumnus from the Oregon Medical Department. How they do this shit is beyond me.

Btw, for anyone who cares, the same jackass/referee who messed up the Oklahoma/Oregon game a few years ago is now the Director of officials.

I have a question for y'all now. During the BCS selctions show, there were at least 2 (maybe 3) crystal footballs behind Tressel. I was under the impression that trophy had only been around since '93 or so. If that's true, y'all should only have 1. What are the others for?

They figured the '07 and '08 are already ours.

It sure would help if we can make LSU one dimensional. Hester seems to run low and although it is cliche' but he sure seems to always fall forward. I agree Beanie will need a good game and we can't let LSU just stuff it down our throats. Our D-tackles may be the key to this game.

Hester gets too low and leads with the helmet. A flying knee to the helmet would be the way to stop him. But seriously, running like that is dangerous to the runner's neck and could result in a very serious injury. I hope the running backs coach isn't putting more importance on getting yards over the player's health.

I noticed that too. My only explanations are that since we have 3 AFCA championships, we have a trophy for each. Or, we have two, one for the BCS championship and one to Jim Tressel for winning AFCA coach of the year.

My apologies for this one. When you get penalized as much as we do, they all kinda blend together. It's something our fans have bitched about most of the season. A foolish roughing the passer penalty (legit call, foolish on our part) at least indirectly cost us the Kentucky game.
