Game Thread tOSU vs. Sparty, B1G Championship Game, Sat 8 ET on FOX

Bucks had the ball in Sparty territory, up 24-20...had to punt.

Bucks led 24-20, Sparty was backed up on their 10...90 yard TD drive.

Bucks got the ball after a punt block, in Sparty territory, down 27-24...stopped on downs.

Sparty drove 60+ yards for the clinching TD.

It sucks, but they were the better team. No excuses, no explanations, they beat us.

That's part of it, but it's deeper than that. The players aren't playing instinctively for some reason - they're thinking too damn much. I think the scheme has them playing with their heads instead of with their bodies if you know what I mean.

The scheme was designed for NFL players, and it works great in the NFL, as NFL players don't have to worry about class and finals and being a college-student.

24-1 is nice but we don't have any Big Ten championships yet and that kinda stings. A BCS bowl win would be nice but it hurts too much to think about right now.
We have several Big Ten championships, but I know what you mean...3 B1G title games, and none were won by our Buckeyes.

24 wins in a row...going to a BCS game. This hurts like a bitch but how the hell can we not be proud of our guys? They represented the University and fan base with class. Take a bow boys and keep your heads up. We'll be back and better next year.

...And wear your Buckeye gear with pride tomorrow. I can't help but shake my head when I see people using the words "embarrassed" and "pathetic" because things aren't going our way in a football game. I'd rather lose as a Buckeye than win as anything else.

Well, this made me feel slightly better about myself. We've been slightly spoiled by Tressel and now Urban
