Ahhhhhh yes........

Today is the day of "THE GAME".

You ready for some football!!!!!



Woooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!

Today's "THE GAME" baby!!!!!!


PS.... You know it's a BIG-BigTen game when the "Loser" goes to the Rose Bowl. As if every OSU/UM game isnt already huge?

I am rooting for the Bucks as well.

Too bad I am working until 1:00 p.m. (Central) today. At least I will catch the end of the game.

Michigan will be very fired up. With the passing of Bo Schembechler they will be very motivated.

Should be a great game. I say OSU by 3-7 points or they blow them out.

I am hoping for some wacky upsets as well I want to see the Badgers somehow get into a BCS game.

My bad! The game is at 2:30 Central, Sweet!

Bukeye_Nut (and Buckeyefan): you ought to appreciate this...I am rooting for Ohio as well, even though I live closer to Michigan. Ohio plays some good ball.

I am so geeked up today. A few of us went out on campus last night and had a ball. You can't imagine OSU campus. It's insane. Security was pretty impressive on High St. I think every Columbus cop was working.

Bo - RIP. I know he and Woody would have loved to watch this game together (and who knows, they may have the best seat in the house).

I decided to stay back and enjoy the game at home today. Had numerous offers to tailgate, watch it on a jumbotron by the stadium outdoors, indoor at local campus bars - but nothing beats seeing it in HD at home with some cold beers, wings, and the family. I'm too much of a pure football fan to fight the crowds on campus trying to watch a fuzzy picture on a 3 story screen. I'm all about the pre-game hype, but when it comes to the gridiron, I've got to focus. There's 50 days before the next big game. I can party all night if we play like we should.

Hope the game is close, and one for the ages. May the best team win.

Oh yeah! Here we go!

As usual, these games come down to a play or two.

If that roughing the passer call didn't take place on 3rd and 15, the ball game may have been different. It was a good game, though (for college ).

Rematch baby. If Notre Dame somehow winds up in the championship game I will be outraged. Unless there is a rematch, this old Wolverine will certainly root for the Buckeyes in their bowl (I always do).

Ted Ginn dropped some key passes, but the Buckeyes still prevailed. Michigan has one helluva team. We'll see how well USC does this evening. I don't think ND has a chance at the title, but computers may think differently. A rematch wouldn't be such a bad thing with Michigan. Home field does have its advantages, and anything could happen on a neutral field.

Anyhow, time to celebrate the win, and gloat for 50 days.

I was rooting for OSU, too, even though I live near another Big Ten university. I was born in Ohio and my parents live there. Since my local team is out of contention, I wanted a Buckeye win.

Post-season? Could be an OSU/UM redux, but that'll depend on how other teams fare at the end. My guess is a rematch'd be unlikely.

Could be OSU vs. USC, or OSU vs. UF, or even OSU vs. Rutgers (unlikely, though), or OSU vs. Notre Dame. Today's Detroit newspaper--it considers UofM to be local team, and gives it lots of coverage--said that Arkansas has an outside shot at the title game.

Back to the redux: UofM came close to beating the #1 team, so that's in the Wolverines's favor. But lots of things would have to go their way for them to get to the title game. Still, the Rose Bowl isn't bad. (Sorry, Jax )

If USC wins out, USC will make it to the title game. Their only hiccup was that loss to Oregon St., which was a close game. If USC beats Notre Dame, I think they'll have it wrapped up.
