Only two games left until the end of football season :(

I'm guessing Ohio State over Texas in an upset, but I really don't think it will be an upset as the Big 12 is even more overrated than the Big10

    I am watching this game now and love OSU, but is it just me or are these announcers pitiful?

    oh oh, looks like Ohio State started the game with a lot of steam but they seem to have lost it in the locker room at 1/2 time

    wow, I kind of feel bad for the Big10 right now. 1-6 in Bowl games. They lost that game by a matter of inches on the 4th and 3

    Tressel sucks in big games, simple as that.



    I know another crimson coach that wins over 80% of their games, but lose most bowls.;) Fingers are crossed for Thursday night.

    Nice media bandwagon comment. Guy wins his a national championship in his first year as coach, and he sucks in big games?
    If OSU would have won, Tressel and the team would still "suck" in all non-thinking people's minds.

    Great game tonight. Maybe with the Texas win, we can get some more pressure for a playoff system. Hope Thursdays game is just as good.

    Actually, his second year at Ohio State, but yeah, 1 loss in 8 tries vs that team up north, wins vs Texas (2 years ago), vs ND in a bowl back when that actually meant something, I wouldn't say that comment is really true. Granted, Ohio State was expected to beat Florida two years ago, but got totally outcoached by Meyer. Last year's NC game, Ohio State kind of backed into the game with a team that was supposed to be rebuilding after the loss of a Heisman winning QB, the two best receivers, the RB, and a bunch of starters from the defense, but that is not really the mark of a coach who "sucks"; after all, they did make it to the game, even if they ended up losing. I'd rather have him at the wheel than a coach who routinely loses one or two games a year to inferior competition (I'm lookin' at you, Pete Carroll!)

    I'm looking forward to next season, once Pryor gets another year of spring practice under his belt. That guy has the potential to be scary good.

    Go Bucks!

    Very scary good. They will work on his passing skills during the off-season and he will return much better. :cool:

    I haven't watched any Ohio State games prior to last night, but it was amazing how much the guy reminded me of Vince Young in college. He just has that long slow stride that is somehow faster than everyone else on the field. He definitely made rookie mistakes though. Just in the first couple of drives I don't understand why he didn't take the easy extra 5-10 yards and instead just ran out of bounds with the closest defender 5 yards aways. Especially the first time when he could have easily picked up the first down.

    Very entertaining game. Texas was completely dead in the first half. Luckily they woke up enough in the second half to pull off a win.

    Yeah, that game was about a minute too long.

    For anyone interested in Thursday's game. Here's a look at the last two time Oklahoma went to the championship game with a much hyped offense.
