The Game, tOSU at ttun, Nov. 27th,12pm FOX (3654 down to 0)

They handled Karlaftis pretty well so I’m not as concerned about Hutchinson. The rational side of me thinks this might be the worst asswhipping ever in the out house in favor of the Buckeyes. The Cooper scarred side of me is too paralyzed by fear to make a prediction.
Which is exactly why I compare their defense to Purdue. 1 good defensive end who's over aggressive but other wise nothing amazing.

What I've noticed is you can run on these guys. Sparty over 200, Maryland 180, Rutgers 193, and Corn 140. These are teams that are not great at staying balance and yet still issues.

They're a typical ttun when they have a decent year. Absolutely feast on the garbage like IU/NW/Washington and come in with this false sense of pride. Particularly on defense.

No 2 ways around it though we are hanging a number on this defense. Especially their LBs they are in complete trouble in 6 days (#12 more specifically).

They better hope our defense from 2 weeks ago shows up instead of the one from last week or it'll be over by the half.

Humbled to be in front of you again. I’ve been part of this rivalry since I was this big [holds hand up to waist]. So I get really upset when I see people come into the program and they don’t appreciate it, they don’t respect it, and, uh, that bothers me.

And I can speak on behalf of you guys who have been here. I cannot speak on behalf of you guys in the back because you don’t yet. Some of you know a little bit about it. But this is a rivalry that in the 10-Year War, there was guy named Bo Schembechler who was the coach at the Team Up North, he’s actually from Ohio. And then a guy named Woody Hayes, and he was the coach here.

And I lived that rivalry in 1986-87 when I was a coach here and I lived this rivalry away coaching in other places. Came back here and, and I’ve been at USC vs. Notre Dame, Florida vs. Georgia, Florida vs. Florida State, and all due respect to all of them out there - that ain’t anything like this.

So it really bothered me when I heard a player for the other team come out and guarantee wins, and Revenge Tours, and shit like that, and I remember those days and my head almost popped off my shoulders. That’s disrespecting the rivalry. And I think - everyone listen real close, this is in our DNA, this will never change: How do you really show respect for a rivalry?

Think about it. Very simple question, complicated answer. How do you show respect for a rivalry?

Is it a tee shirt, is it uh - some guy, that Kamara (Ed. Meyer likely meant Michigan running back Karan Higdon (BKB Ed. 11W probably meant Karen Higdon), not Saints running back Alvin Kamara) that asshole that said they were going to win the game and said “I guarantee it” or that defensive end, really good player, Revenge Tour Almost Done so he’s going to group us with Wisconsin or Penn State or something like that?

How do you really show respect for a rivalry? And all due respect, maybe some up there don’t understand that. You work that [expletive] every day. Every day. You walk in that staff room - this is for the new coaches, you know who they recruit. You know what they’re doing every day. What I ask Mark Pantoni - who are they recruiting? Who are they going after? What is their practice schedule? What are they doing? Are we outworking them?

So I’ll say this again. How do you respect a rivalry? You work it every day. You don’t shoot your mouth off. If I ever hear, whatever’s going on, I hear a player take a shot verbally at them - that’s a problem. How do you show respect for a rivalry? You work it every [expletive] day. Not by tee shirts. Not by bullshit.

When I see people giggle about how we don’t wear blue in here - I don’t laugh about that. We don’t have blue pens in here. That’s not funny. This is Nike vs. Adidas, this is Coke vs. Pepsi, this is Ohio State vs the Team Up North. This is our livelihood.

So if you're new to the program - welcome to the program. Understand where you’re at. This is not a game. This is not silly. This is a way of life. There’s a bunch of former players in the back [of the room] that lived it. As you move up, you live it. This is who you are.

You never lose to those pricks. Ever. Ever. And you work it every day. And I don’t give a shit if you’re from California or Texas or whatever, as soon as you say you’re a Buckeye this is part of your life for the rest of your life - and you don’t lose to those pricks. You beat them every day. Every day.

This will always be a player’s program. What you guys did in that game, to put a beating on that team like they’ve never had a beating before in the history of that program - very good program, by the way - you notice how we talk about them, right? Is that a good program up there? Great program. Good players up there? Great players. Great coaches? Great coaches.

That’s the way you respect a rivalry. Then you outwork them and then you kick that ass like it’s never been kicked before. And that’s what you did.

The first time I watched this, I remember feeling like the scene where the Grinch’s heart grew three sizes. Beautiful speech. There’s a lot of negativity surrounding him, but hearing this made me damn proud to have him coaching the Buckeyes. Obviously I already felt that way long before this complete annihilation came, but this speech sealed it in stone for me.

Every. Damn. Day.

A lot of new Buckeyes chasing their first pair of gold pants this season. Bring ‘em home, boys. Then never lose sight of what they mean.

My widowed father was dating a woman from Ann Arbor ( is a whore) who happened to work at that God Forsaken school. She had season tickets. My father and I were actually in attendance at that game, right in the middle of their faculty section. We went nuts when the Bucks did that.

Tell me he donkey punched her after he used her for the tickets.
