HAHAHA! BDubs and Wal-Mart? Who the hell was showing you around Athens? Were you hanging out with townies?

Haha, was only half-serious. But I do get really bored when I go there, in all honesty. I can drink the same amount in Columbus, and there's a lot more to do in general.

I don't get the obsession with Athens. A lot of my friends talk about how awesome it is. I mean, it's a cool place to party, but I like doing other things sometimes.

I'm not really concerned about that and here's why. We were not very good against Miami. Hats off to the defense. I thought they were very good. I thought the safeties in particular proved that they could handle themselves at this level. CJ Barnett likes to hit people. Very impressive. But the offensive line was extremely lackluster. Pryor made two beautiful passes (Posey & Saine) but was mostly miserable in the passing game otherwise. He made a ton of poor throws on easy dump passes and quick slants. Obviously special teams was a disaster. A billion trips to the red zone, a billion FG attempts. Unacceptable. It should be easy to get this team in the film room this week and show them that we are not anywhere close to being ready for Wisconsin/Iowa/Penn St/Michigan. Great win on a big stage. A win is a win is a win. But it wasn't pretty by any stretch. Lots of room to get better and it starts this week.

Agree with kc. There's plenty to keep them focused. Throw in really bad kitty team, memories of 08 and low likelihood of out playing the game of their lives two times in a row against big brother. This is the perfect storm for a utter style 49-0 beatdown.

I would be less concerned about that if I were you. These players were here back in 2008 and when many a player said they had no idea how they won and should have lost. Then again, that could feed into them not showing up :paranoid:




And no shot at me for using it here? I am disappointed in you...

I'm taking it easy on you since your team is going to get their asses ripped off and shoved down their faces on Saturday.

Nothing official is listed yet for Ohio but starting LB Noah Keller and DE Dak Notestine are possibly doubtful for Saturday. Keller had a great game against Ohio State in '08.

Keller is a tackling machine. Had 155 last year, and 20 this season so far. If he's "no joy" Ohio's in for a tougher day.

Reading some other sources, questionable was used for their status. Regardless, it sounds like there are a fair number of defensive starters and backups that may or may not play for Ohio this week. Keller's absence would be the biggest downer. He really is a hell of a football player.

The only good news I have heard so far is Bates is practicing this week.

But if Keller & Daks don't play... it might not matter...

You forgot "Pad TP's Heisman stats with 250/100 and at least 5TDs."
