I said it's great, to bet, the Florida Gators.
Also insert USC, Oklahoma, Oregon, and Georgia Tech.

Happy Thanksgiving

Here is your turkey of the year.

The Waiting Begins

As of right now the Buckeyes are on the outside of the BCS picture looking in. Ten teams will play in a BCS game and they look to be team 11 because of the Big East and ACC getting an automatic bid. This shouldn't worry any fan of the scarlet and grey though because as we have seen in the past, crazy things will happen over the next couple of weeks.

#1 Alabama: Still has a rivalry game with Auburn and an SEC Championship match up with Florida. Even if they go 1-1 it is likely they get an at-large bid.

Prediction: Sugar Bowl

#2 Texas: Has to play their rival Texas A&M which is a game where anything can happen and usually does. Sitting as a lame duck because of Oklahoma jumping them in the Big 12 South to play in the Conference Championship Game.

Prediction: Fiesta Bowl

#3 Oklahoma: Has Oklahoma State in their rivalry game which could cause them some trouble but will most likely be their stepping stone before playing Missouri in a rematch of the Big 12 Championship from last year. If they win out they are in the National Championship Game.

Prediction: BCS National Championship Game

#4 Florida: Plays Florida State in their rivalry game this weekend which is always a hard hitting match up. Can give the Gators trouble but they should be fine. Then have the SEC Championship Game against Alabama. A loss to FSU and win against Bama keeps them in a BCS game.

Prediction: BCS National Championship Game

#5 USC: Plays Notre Dame and UCLA in the next two weeks. Although, UCLA has upset them before, I don't think it happens this year. Loss to either team sends them out of the BCS picture.

Prediction: Rose Bowl

#6 Utah: Has finished season undefeated and will get an at-large bid.

Prediction: Fiesta Bowl

#7 Texas Tech: Lost shot at BCS title game with blow out loss to Oklahoma. Has Baylor left and is on the outside looking in because no more than two teams can make it in from the same conference.

Prediction: Cotton Bowl

#8 Penn State: Season is over. Have already booked plane tickets to Pasadena.

Prediction: Rose Bowl

#9 Boise State: Has a tough game against Fresno State coming up. Even a win won't get them in this year with Utah taking the at-large. Will most likely finish undefeated and miss a BCS bowl. This is strictly because of money for the bowl site.

Prediction : Humanitarian Bowl

#10 Ohio State: Season over. Two loss team that is sitting on the bubble waiting for someone to fall out. Needs Oregon State to lose so that USC wins the Pac-10 and goes to the Rose Bowl.

Prediction: Orange Bowl

BCS Predictions:

Rose Bowl
Penn State vs. USC

Orange Bowl
Cincinnati vs. Ohio State

Sugar Bowl
Florida State vs. Alabama

Fiesta Bowl
Utah vs. Texas

BCS National Championship
Florida vs. Oklahoma

Ann Arbor Girls Are Dirty Whores

Get it Brutus.

Bob Ross

Dedicated!

Go Bucks!

Yea, It's That Time Again...

Ok, so Chad, Mike, and Jake are gone now. They combined for 12 loses against the Bucks and that's good enough I guess.

This week should be filled with many great videos of our recent domination of the school from up north. Yet to come is "The Catch" in '05, "The Punt Return" of '04, the whole fucking '02 and '06 games, and of course our memorable entrance into "The Big Hole in the Ground" in 1973. Fuck that let's show it now.



On another note I will be getting into Columbus on Friday in time for the Dead Schembechlers concert at the LC Pavilion. Joining me should me The Godfather, AMG, The Gator, Javis, and Georgeous. Would love to see Lobster and McCampus there as well but their sightings have been few and far between in my recent trips. Contrary to what the German Villagers say, everytime I come down to the 614 The 1 is out and having a great time. Should be crazy and that's all the night before "The Beatdown of '08". I went there.

FUPA

Definition of saturated fat.

I Will

Ok so Todd Boeckman won't ever again and no way he makes that throw to the net with out skipping it. Still a pretty bad ass commerical.

At Illinois 2000

This was the moment where Mike Doss became my favorite Ohio State player. The man was cruel to ball carriers. Even being in college I think the NFL would have fined him for this hit.

It was a great win for the Buckeyes before losing to Michigan at home on a bull shit no call when all 11 defenders were held on a Chris Perry screen pass for a touchdown early in the game. It was fucking terrible. John Cooper was fired after a loss to South Carolina (FUCK THE SEC) and within months James Patrick Tressel was hired!

Tressel's Grudge Will Hurt The Team

Ray Small has been suspended again and could be out the rest of the year. He won't travel to Northwestern this weekend and probably won't to Illinois either.

Small has seemed to be in Tressel's dog house since he has arrived in Columbus. This time he is being suspended for an unspecified violation of team rules but sources say it's because of missing class. Small and his loud mouth father, who should never fucking get involved or fucking talk to the fucking papers about it, are denying this accusation and saying that it's just Tressel's way of moving him out of the way.

Tressel has been pretty good with players over the years and if you get in to trouble off the field you will usually be an afterthought (see: Marcel Frost, Louis Irrazary, Antonio Henton). I hope for Tressel's sake that he is making the right move because Small is far and away better than Hartline in the punt returning game. Last year the Buckeyes didn't have one return for a score. This year Small has already housed one and holds a 13.2 yard average. Hartline and Robo do not combine for that stat. I would love to see highly recruited freshman Lamaar Thomas back there but it is a long shot because Tressel doesn't trust just anyone back there.

Buckeyes Going To The '09 Draft: #1

1. Chris "Beanie" Wells. 6' 1" 237. RB.

Beanie jumping to the NFL before his senior year would be a huge loss to Buckeye Nation for the '09 season, but you can't blame him. He has been the best running back in college football over the span of the past 2 years and is only getting better. He has been injury prone but when he's 100% he is near unstoppable. NFL scouts are saying that he doesn't run hard enough which can be true at times. He often waits for his blocks to be set up so he can blast into the hole and break a long run. He is a solid combination of power and speed. He can grind out 4 yard carries or break them for long gains. If he decides to come back and join TP in the backfield for another year it could be one of college football's scariest duos of all time.

Prediction: Top 5

Buckeyes Going To The '09 Draft: #2

2. Malcolm Jenkins. 6' 1" 201. CB.

Malcolm is playing his final season as a Buckeye better than ever. He decided to come back with Freeman and Laurinaitis even with a chance to go in the top 15 in last year's draft. He has been taking away half of the field for quarterbacks to throw to and has been even more terrorizing while blitzing off the edge. When offenses are in a running formation, Jenkins sometimes lines up at safety and plays center field so that if there is a pass, he is free to roam and be all over receivers. Critics said last year that he lacked make up speed but it seems like he has taken care of that in the off season. He is a big and strong corner that will be a franchise player to any team he goes to.

Prediction: Top 10

Holy Shit!

No Ohio State game this week. No Penn State game this week. Sound like a boring week for Big Ten football? I thought so too.

It is only 3:30 and there have been 3 Big Ten games that have gone to the wire with crazy finishes. We had a pick six with under 15 seconds left for Northwestern to pull off the win over #17 Minnesota. We had a field goal to cap off a come from behind win for #21 Michigan State over Wisconsin. In West Lafayette, a hook & ladder with 25 seconds left has left this season in history for the Wolverines, clinching their losing season. There will be no post season bowling for Michigan for the first time since 1974 and first losing season since 1967. Let's see if the craziness continues...

Buckeyes Going To The '09 Draft: #3

3. James Laurinaitis. 6' 3" 240. LB.

Laurinaitis has been exactly how he sounds over the past 4 years, a warrior. His fabulous career for the Buckeyes began in 2005 when he replaces the injured Bobby Carpenter in the Michigan game and has been terrorizing offenses ever since. Could have been a top 5 pick last year and was thought of being New England's pick at #10 if he got that far. Deciding to come back with guys like Freeman and Malcolm Jenkins was like a gift from God for Buckeye nation. "Little Animal" has not been seen as playing how he used to but this is only because defenses are keying on him every play. He is getting double teamed as a middle linebacker which shows the respect he deserves but is hurting him at swarming to the ball like he has in the past. He has had problems fighting off blocks while moving lateral but still has the strength, speed, and agility to be destructive in the NFL. With a player like Rey Maualuga (USC) also coming out he could be the second middle linebacker taken.

Prediction: Top 15
