HINYG8

You never come back from Copperhead Road
We've seen it over and over again the last decade or so...we line up as the favorite..only to see the dawg have the game of their season.

This year alone..TSUN had their longest drive of their season (by far) and Funchess remembered what his hands are for. Va Tech..good lord..that kid played out of his damn mind. It seems to happen every week...one or two players manage to play the game of their career against OSU. We often absorb those body blows and get the W...but it seems like more often than not it doesn't follow the script and double digit dogs take us to OT (hiya PSU!), or easy Ws on paper require a second half rally to put away...Hoosiers. It takes a clutch drive to keep us in it before the half..TSUN. Or it gets away from us...MSU a year ago..along with Clemson. Va Tech this year..we lapse..they can't miss..and it takes just one quarter for it to get away.

Well, damn it, it's time for us to deliver one of those to someone else. Here we come..underdogs.

I'd love to see us play a complete game. I'd like to see a couple of ours have the game of their career..and we are the ones to really light the game up for a change. We only need 4 points to flip the script..that is just one or two key stops..or one big play on offense..or a special teams highlight. It's RIGHT there in front of this team..we just need a player or two to step up and take their very best shot while everyone else just holdst their spot down. We don't need to make up a couple of TDs like PSU, IU, Va Tech or TSUN did. We need ONE.

We played focused against MSU and walked out with their pride in our pocket..but even that night we made mistakes, turned it over...and didn't play a complete game.

We are due for one.

I said before that MSU game that it was time we won one of those. Now it is time to play a full 60 minutes of sharp, focused ball. It's been too long since we saw that. It may not be JTB in the pocket...but if everyone does their part and one or two of ours really step up big they can make Cardale a legend...and get JTB and the coaching staff the hardware they so richly deserve this season.

I don't want UW to give us one...I want us to take it...

...after all, it's ours and it's been missing since 2009.

Let's take it back.

Yes Cardale can become a legend if we win...BUT this is the time for the red headed step child( our D) to reclaim their heritage. Under Urban it has been about the O but the D loaded with talent that will play on Sunday, can come together as a UNIT play as one, like the 2002 defense. I'd love for someone to step up in that D meeting and challenge this D to play like their hair is on fire. No mental mistakes , missed assignments, undisciplined personal fouls but committed to each other for 60 minutes. Is their a Doss,Spielman,Gradishar etc in that locker room that can lift this D up?

Michael Bennett, wearing #53 to honor Kosta, made plays and proved to be that leader the defense needed to pitch a shut out. Props to every player but putting that guy, wearing that number, in the middle of the D brought the emotion that you rarely see outside of The Game.

Angry, pissed off team that no one wants to face. No one.

I am so damn tired of hearing SEC and Alabama. How long is this shit going to go on for us. Urban has been their 3 times against Alabama
with mostly players from Florida. Now he goes up against them, mostly with players from Ohio. Meyer I suppose knows Saban better than anyone, but with Lane Kiffin as the O/C, you know they will be a different to face.

And now I guess you can see, Ohio State as a very different team, with who we have on our coaching staff now. I feel that this game with
Alabama will played more like a Chess Game. I just hope and pray that this can be our year to get the damn SEC Monkey off our back. I have been around too damn long and I know that I am very old too.

I hope Saban comes in playing chess....because I get the strong impression that Urban is playing Game of Thrones.

You know what I really want to see? Two of the greatest coaches of their time frame doing what they do and see the strongest, meanest, most well coached and disciplined team win it in a head to head slug-fest.

See which team wants it more. No injuries and the best game from each player that takes the field. No help from the referees.

If Ohio State did that, I couldn't disparage them. I would applaud Ohio State and be genuinely happy at just seeing a good game played.

If Ohio State beats Bama, they have a really good chance of being the inaugural champions of the new committee panel voting set up.

This Buckeye team is really built for a run next year. Anything we get this year is gravy imo. I am guessing this will be just the first of several times we may meet.
