Makes me sick that there's that Michigan faction in Youngtown, Ohio. I'm not one of those "all things UM are evil," but for all the things that Coach Tressel did for that area during his time at YSU, going to UM shouldn't even be a thought in those kids' heads.

There's a rather large scUM base in Warren.

I was never a big Coop fan but when was this long stretch of mediocrity
that Mclain was speaking about ? Maybe he meant to say long stretch of sucking in the scUM game. Get it right.

1947?

Damn, that's almost as funny as Mike Hart's "We don't ever lose three games a year. If we lost three, what would that make us look like?"

To be fair, it hasn't been quite that long, they won the AP title in 1948.

After the 1947 season, they campaigned to get an unofficial poll taken after the Rose Bowl, since they kicked USC's ass in it 49-0.

edit - In 1985, they finished #2, but never had a shot at #1. They had a loss and a tie, and were #5 heading into the bowls, before #3 Oklahoma downed #1 Penn State to win the NC, when #2 Miami also lost their bowl.

Two Ohio turncoats watching OSU beat them in their own house. A lesson for future Ohio high school players.

Speaking of Crable, I didn;t hear a single thing about him this season :biggrin:

Jeez, don't you remember? With the Bucks down 21-12 in the 4th, Crable chased down Troy on a 3rd and ten scramble. Of course, he caught him 12-13 yards downfield. But, he showed tremendous closing speed on the play.:biggrin: Just to get the thread back on track to Burgess, soon thereafter, he allows Holmes inside, Troy whistles one right past him, and Holmes dives into the endzone. But, hey, we go game by game, too.

Love seeing these guys made fools out of after they chose to go where they think they will get notoriety. Wouldn't want any kid that even considers the option of going to scUM to come to tOSU.
