I have a friend who's parents are OSU fans but somehow he ended up a scUM fan. Note- he's not my friend during OSU-scUM week.

Serenity now
Nationwide has been handing out thousands of towels every home game this year. They're always in front of Tommy's at Lane & Neil. They were also in front of Riverwatch on Lane last game as well. They have also handed out rain ponchos, beer bottle opener/keychains, plastic megaphones, and some other stuff. I've got about 15 Nationwide towels in my closet and a couple more in my car.

Curl Dr. around the North campus dorms. Always free on the weekends, although most people don't realize it.

Watson, Crick & A Twist
Shame I can't get JavaScript to work on this message board.
It'd be real easy to have a JS Countdown that keeps to the second timing till the kick-off.
Thought this might work - but to no avail:
Sad - coz it would in principle give you a live clock counting down - and rhe same code could be re-used for the days, hours, minutes and seconds till next years contest.
Ah well --

Watson, Crick & A Twist
When Was the Last Time tOSU
Had an intense - charged pre-game atmosphere and no quit crowd prodding the defence to take it to a more highly ranked opponent at home...
The type of thing I'm thinking of is when Iowa to came to town ranked Numero Uno and Spielman et al -- with more than a little help from the 12th man just made life murder all day. We made noise from before the whistle to well after the game was done. I practically could not talk the next morning!
That was one hell of a good crowd that day - during awful weather, rainy and chilly. And that ended up being a great performance by the Buckeyes upsetting the Hawkeyes..
We could do with another one like that this Saturday -- a classic, not the EF***N Instant type - but a real classic game. One that boggles your mind with what the Buckeyes did - and how they did it - years from now.

Probably going to jinx myself for next year, but GamePlan here has had every single Ohio State game that wasn't otherwise available on ABC/ESPN/ESPN2 since I got it three years ago.

Being an Old Timer, the game I remember was in 1972.OSU a big underdog to the scum, and with the crowds help we upset them. There was at lest three goal line stands where Gradishar,Plank, et. al.kept UM out of the endzone.Freshman came through that day, Griffin and Baschnagel and if Ginn Pitman come through with good games we can have another upset.

We need early '70s Deja Vu!
Michigan comes into The Game undefeated in conference play, looking for an outright Big Ten title. We're all-too-familiar with how they ruined our conference title hopes and overall seasons in the 1990s, but how about what we did to them in the early 1970s?
1970: Michigan is 9-0 coming into Columbus, having outscored opponents 279-70. We beat them 20-9 to win an outright Big Ten title.
1972: Michigan is 10-0 coming into Columbus, and we beat them 14-11 to share the title with them.
1973: Michigan is 10-0 when we invade the Pig House, and tie them 10-10 to again share the title with them.
1974: For the third straight time coming into Columbus, Michigan is undefeated on the season (10-0) and we beat them 12-10 to yet again share the title with them.
1975: For the second time in a row at the Pig House, we face a Michigan team undefeated in conference play, and beat them 21-14, this time to win the title outright.
As you can see, in five of the first six years in the 1970s, we faced a Michigan team that came into The Game undefeated in conference play and sent them away with neither an undefeated conference season nor outright title. A win by us this Saturday would yet again prevent them from winning the title outright, since the two current second place teams (Iowa and Wisconsin) have one conference loss each and play each other the same day.
Deja Vu the Blue!
