I don't know why, but I'm still anxious and worried. I grew up during Cooper's tenure. 1988-2000 were my formitive years. Childhood memories of my beloved Buckeyes losing to TSUN over and over again...the pain runs deep for my generation. If we bitchslap Michigan on Saturday, any and all Cooper-Era conditioning will be forever banished from my psyche.

i can understand what you mean - i lived through too many Cooper coached games as well, but i have the calm comfort knowing that JT is on the sidelines now - he is simply the best big game coach

First post here...I just watched a segment on ESPN News with Robert Smith and Desmond Howard. Robert picked the Bucks and Desmond TSUN. Robert was very classy. Desmond basically said that if TSUN plays turnover free and mistake free football (yeah right) that they win by 9. Funny.

Anyway, great site and GO BUCKS!:osu:

At halftime Bacher had out-passed Smith 212 yards to 148.
I doubt that had anything to do with the short field we enjoyed all day.

It drives me nuts when people don't look at numbers from more than the angle that makes their argument look right. In 2003 against Iowa we were outgained on offense. Part of that was due to the fact that we returned a punt for a TD....which takes yardage away from the offense.

SI

That there are only two national-title caliber teams this season ? and they're playing this Saturday. After watching Michigan in person Saturday for the first time since the Notre Dame game, I fully believe that The Game is a toss-up. This is not a slight against Ohio State, which is still quite clearly the team to beat. But the Wolverines are that good -- particularly their defense. Neither teams' Big Ten schedule has been particularly daunting this season, but they've both gone out and won convincingly every week. So when I see Florida barely surviving South Carolina (Big Ten equivalent: Penn State) or Texas losing to Kansas State (Big Ten equivalent: Purdue), it only reinforces that OSU and Michigan are in their own stratosphere this year.

dang, Grad... when i first read that, ithought it was YOUR opinion... ugh. i nearly threw up.

Double Amen. I want the boos to rain down so loud when their band strkes up the first note of their wretched fight song that it isn't even audible. Every down the noise needs to be brought. They better get their plays right in the huddle because there is no way theyre going to be able to communicate outside of it.
