Oh god, that game. Best part of it was the tailgating before. Soaked through like 4 layers of clothing and the poncho was worthless.

My last game at the Shoe ....

Yeah, I watched them all the way as well. I know some folks get angry when it's not going well but I tend to be more disappointed than angry. I can get angry after the game, sometimes, but during a debacle I'm just down. I'm not big on pregame or postgame shows.

But as I said earlier, I get 12-15 chances to watch Ohio State football per year. I'm not missing one unless it's unavoidable. McCord leaving actually makes this game more interesting, just to see what Day does at QB and how they look.

2006 wasn't angering to me. It felt more like being forced to watch a family member be abused. I'm almost 20 years older now so I think I could take it better these days (I haven't skipped a play since), but would still rather not for obvious reasons.

Mizzou's RB finished 8th, but I want to know who the hell voted 1st for JJ McCarthy.

2 choices, Desmond Howard or Charles Woodson.

As expected.. not seeing any Mizzou players opt out and only a few insignificant enter the portal... looks like they'll be at full strength
They're all in for this one

My money's on Dez.... they're both traitorous bastards, of course, but any time I've seen Chuck talking about football he seems to give a shit about his reputation whereas Dez is unabashed homer.

 

[Bill Lucas]

Fuck Mizzou! Back on topic.

And we are looking at the polar opposite most likely, but I can't say that I am surprised at all. Full strength we destroy Mizzou, but hopefully we can just keep it respectable with whoever ends up taking the field. But crazier things have happened and we do have a lot of young talent, so if enough guys decide to play that we didn't expect to, then maybe we can pull it off. About 2 and a half weeks from the game, so I would expect some announcements in that regard in the next week or so.

When do players get their NFL assessment reports?

2 choices, Desmond Howard or Charles Woodson.

It was more than likely Desmond, Charles is very annoying but Desmond is by far the dumbest of the 2.

I don't even remember that game. I must have blocked it from memory, for good reason.

My memories of 2004 are housing TCUN and going to San Antonio for the Alamo Bowl.

I remember it - I was driving the PA turnpike, so I fortunately didn't pick up the entire game.
