We did it, we one the big one! We usually mess up, especially when Cooper was coach. This truely seems to be an amazing year. Now we are in position to play for the championship, probably against Miami. Lets hope they can overcome this last obstacle!

I hate to say this because I am from Ohio and a Buckeye fan, but Ohio State is the most overrated team in recent memory. If they play Miami Hurricanes they will get steamrolled by 21+ points.
They barely beat Cincinnati, Purdue, Illinois. Fortunately they didn't play Iowa this year, who would have surely beat them.

The problem is quarterback Kruentzel and his lack of passing ability. Miami will put 8 players in the box and shut down Clarret, game over. They have good receivers, Gamble will be NFL receiver, but Kruenzel cannot deliver the goods.

If Ohio State had a good quarterback the rest of the team could be a legit national championship team.

Clarret's stock went up today, he should play one more year before going into NFL draft, there are questions about his durability with recent injuries.

Good observations, but Miami has had trouble with the run, so can they shut down #13? They have tended to play down to the level of their opponents as well. I really dont think OSU could beat Miami, or Oklahoma for that matter, but you never know. So, for the next six weeks I get to dream. All this is gravy, I figured they would be atleast a year away. Most of all, I hope all this attention helps their recruiting. There are some awesome dbs to recruit this year, two from Ohio. If you dont already know, you can follow them and recruiting on go-bucks.com.

REMEMBER:NEBRASKA VS MIAMI

(The year Kosar led Miami to the upset. Everyone thought Nebraska was invincible.)

I was afraid Tressel's ultra conservative play calling late in the game would sink the Buckeyes. When the defense made a key strip of Navarre while sacking him with 2 minutes to play all OSU needed was 1 first down............Michigan stacked the line and Tressel runs three straight run plays up the middle, duh!

PUNT

Then OSU puts in the 3 man rush prevent defense (duh!) and lets Michigan drive right down the field with no time outs and came very close to scoring the winning TD.

Michigan had 361 total yards vs 248 for OSU

The UH Warriors beat the Cincinnati Bearcats in a very intense game last night...Sadly the game was marred by a nasty brawl involving both teams and the crowd after the game...

Happy as i am about the win, the melee was an embarrassment to both teams and the crowds behavior certainly won't win any awards...fortunately these type of events are very rare here...its been sad to hear of rioting and other mayhem taking place after games all over the country over college football games...i hope things don't go the way of some soccer games in other countries that include a body count...
