Ohio University to play Ohio State in 2008

[ORD_Buckeye]

Since they're into witty t-shirts, here's my suggested top 5:

5) Founded in 1804...Passed Over in 1870...Beaten Down in 2008

4) Ohio University: Ohio's First and....uhhhh...Well, You Were First At Least

3) The Real "Battle of Ohio" Happened at our Spring Game

It's Time, Fredo

2)

​

1) Half Your Students Will Be Rooting For Us!

With Beanie probably out for this game, the delusions of OU fans will grow to epic proportions.

Ohio U has fans?

Nothing I could possibly say could do this little masterpiece justice, so I'll just let it speak for itself.

YouTube - OHIO BOBCATS VS. OHIO STATE BUCKEYES

Well, like their closing shot says, this is the Buckeye state. It's possible that OU will play way over their heads. It's possible that they would rather lose their opener than reveal the clever trick plays that they have up their sleeves for the Buckeyes. It's possible that they can keep this close. But, it's more likely that this will get ugly.

I've been to their site and I really hope that this thread doesn't turn into a put down fest for Ohio University this week. No need for BP to sink to that level. In the world scheme of things, OU is a good school. It's not Ohio State, academically or athletically. And, they certainly would shock the world if they are within two touchdowns this week. But it is a good school.

I am not referring to ORD's post, although we all know his sentiment on this subject :). Let's try to stick to football in the thread guys. They may be Bobcats but they are also Ohioans.

With all due respect Steve, there is a game thread for football talk. While I agree with the sentiment, it is better to have a litter box for poking fun at OU's unintentional comedy than to have it sully the game thread.

I'm going to split my posts: football talk and predictions in the game thread and tossing FredOU a donkey punch in this thread.

Won't it be hard to avoid the donkey punch as you make the predictions?

Yeah, I suppose you are right, DBB. These Fredo guys who talk all this nonsense do make the conditions ripe to rip the Bobcats. And it is unreasonable to expect people to not respond. Personally, I feel a bit for the good posters that we have here who are OU and OSU grads or who go there but support our team.

So, is this then the offical litterbox thread, subject to the sensibilities of the Football Forum?

Cool. A trash talk thread.

Frank Solich is short.

I think this pretty much says all that need be said regarding OU's status in the world of collge football
