Buckeye Sadness

Well, congrats to LSU, I guess. They played well and we didn’t, at least, not for the whole game. Everyone will talk about the blocked FG and that was big, but I think the biggest one was the roughing the kicker call. If we actually block the punt or don’t run into the punter, this is a completely different game, we may still not win it, but if we stop them on their first 3 possessions of the 2nd half it is a much more interesting game in the 4th quarter. Still, a great season for the Buckeyes, especially since we were picked preseason to finish 3rd in the Big Ten. Unfortunately, we probably lose Laurinitis, Gholsten, and Freeman to the NFL now which will hurt next year. The basketball Bucks try to remain undefeated in the Big Ten (okay, it is only their 3rd conference game of the season, but Matta’s teams haven’t managed to start the Big Ten season 3-0 yet even though they went 15-1 in the conference last season) on Wednesday.

Signs of the Apocalypse?

I actually found myself rooting for the Michigan Wolverines earlier this week. Okay, so it was a bowl game and they were playing Florida, so it was for the honor of the Big Ten. An interesting fact I saw someplace earlier this week. The Buckeyes are 1-9-1 against SEC times all-time. Guess who the win and they tie were against? LSU. So, here’s to making it 2-9-1 on Monday night.
