Game Thread Game One: #1 Ohio State 35, Northern Illinois 12 (9/2/06)

Garrett Wolfe is damn good. i'm really impressed with this kid.

 

[BrutusBobcat]

I don't know if any NIU fans are still reading, but Wolfe is the real deal. He's going to destroy some teams in the MAC. Expect to see him rack up some 200+ yard games, for sure.

But the Akron U - Penn St game has some good parts.. other than the first touchdown that the WR pushes off that wasn't called ..

The announce team of that woman and the mush-mouthed guy who sounds like he had a stroke ruined the game for me. I'm watching Tennessee/Cal while keeping up to date on this game through Yahoo.sports.

 

[lvbuckeye]

wow... just saw on the ticker that Colorado is trailing Montana State 13-10 in the 4th quarter... that's not a good sign for the new Dan Hawkins era... how far have they fallen...

another holding call on NIU, which is refused... 4th and 9 picked up on a great catch... Mitchell hit him pretty hard...

Wolfe bottled up behind the LOS by Patterson... 2nd and goal...

We have seen quite a few freshman today, but has anyone seen robert rose out there?

 

[MililaniBuckeye]

So much for NIU pulling Wolfe when down big...

 

[lvbuckeye]

WOW... Wolfe just hesitated and split Mitchell and Freeman and got in for the score... that was impressive...

 

[MililaniBuckeye]

God, now we're going to have to hear fucking G-FORCE for the next week about this play...

one word answer: "scoreboard."

 

[Oneshot]

Come on now, Mili, let's give credit where credit is due...

Wolfe is the only runningback since Chris Perry in 2003 to break 100 on us. Impressive, no matter which way you slice it.

 

[BuckStocksHere]

I knew Wolfe was the real deal...just never got too into the banter going back and forth between Gforce and Mili and whomever.... dude is sick.

Either way, we won...we as in OSU I think....

 

[Smooth Olaf]

Good to see Pitt break 100.

 

[NIU007]

one word answer: "scoreboard."

Can't imagine he would say too much. It was pretty ugly for a while there. Our defense can't stop you guys

 

[Smooth Olaf]

Wolfe is definitely the real deal. Hell, he has 115 yards receiving, also.

 

[lvbuckeye]

i think Troy might have the nicest touch on the deep ball of any Buckeye QB i can remember...
