Motivation to beat the Badgers? - yes
Revenge by Tressel? - he's not saying
Is the "Wizard of Oz" seeding the players with information about previous losses ? - yes
Is he a little bit pissed ? - IMO he is showing restraint but never forgot the the dancing at midfield in 2004.
BuckeyeXtra - The Columbus Dispatch : Revenge factor difficult to deny
These guys need to lose and lose bad -
the most humiliating, overwhelming, crushing, one-sided beat down ever. Defeat them so that they will never want to return to Ohio. Put them in their place and end this curse. Return the Badgers to the holes and spank them within inches of their life.
Anyone getting pumped about the game?
If we think Jim Tressel will ease up on them at all even in the last seconds of the fourth quarter, think twice. He may be subdued and restained but he wants their asses hung out to dry. We do it this Saturday with the opening drive and don't let up until 60 minutes has passed.
