Game Thread tOSU at Illinois, Sat Oct 2, Noon ET, BTN

I'm also not worried. Why? Because it's a nooner. Tress teams since 2002 (farthest ESPN's easy to access schedule goes back) have only lost 2 noon games: @TSUN in 2003 and @Purdon't last year. TSUN is explainable by a relative equality in talent, and the Purdue game took a historically bad performance by our offense to take the loss. I don't see either aspect of those losses present for tomorrow's game.

If the wind is just a nice breeze:

OSU 45
Illini 10

If it's a wind tunnel:

OSU 28
Illini 7

I see this game being close at the half with OSU pulling away in the second half when the Illini emotion dies down. Make no mistake, this is the Illini's Super Bowl.

OSU - 34
UofI - 16

You can always try finding a stream. Sometimes on the game thread some of the members find a stream and post a link.

Hey guys, I checked the B10 Network site but couldn't find a confirmation on them streaming it. Is it something they will do.

Unfortunately Im in San Antonio (Lackland AFB) held up at a hotel so I don't have the Big Ten channel. The alumni club is too far of a drive, so will there be alive stream on the B10 site?

Any BP gatherings in Columbus for this game? Or is there a usual spot? I think I will be in town for a conference.

I am going to be in columbus for this game - any BP strongholds to go watch? I will be out at Easton so I'm sure there are good spots to watch, just thought it would be cool to meet some of you cretins. :)

Bucks 38-13.

:oh:

I too am a little worried about this game. I've had the feeling all week that this could be the game this year that we stumble out of the blocks on. I think it could be close to tied at the half with OSU pulling away in the second half. I'm not trying to be a worry wart here, I just have that "feeling". We shall see I guess, but you always worry when your first road game is a conference game against a team that gives you trouble (Over the past 20 years). We'll begin to find out tomorrow if this squad has the leadership and tenacity to win a title, which I think they do.
