From those aerial shots of the field it sure looks like A LOT of Red going on there in the stands.... Is that normal?

Agreed. You can see how many Wolverines sold their tickets. A couple of things I loved:At the beginning of the game, they show this big dork wearing a yellow shirt with the outline of Ohio that says Worst State Ever or something like that. And then, because apparently Michigan fans are none too smart to know the outline of the state directly south of them, it said "It's Ohio" in parentheses. I loved the shot of the crowd where a guy is crying for a flag when the OSU player barely bumped the Michigan player on the punt and he is going crazy. The girl in the OSU gear next to him gave him a look like, "Are you that big of a ##### that you want that flag?"

The Buckeyes just aren't looking very good today. They really should be noticeably better than the worst team in the BigTen. They haven't been.

Score by talent: OSU 7, UM 6Score by coching mistakes: OSU 0, UM -10Result: OSU 14, UM 3After 30 minutes these two teams look pretty evenly matched up talent wise, but one is far better coached than the other.

The Buckeyes have the superior talent.Michigan has the home field advantage.That said, this game always boils down to the rivalry.It's simply Ohio State vs. Michigan. Nothing more, nothing less.It's the way it's always been, and the way it always will be.It's always big, whether it's in the BIG house or the Horseshoe.The Buckeyes will roll (and "rule") in the second half. No, Dan Herron is no relation, but I do have a brother named "Dan."

I don't think the footnote/hint was for the folks you think it was

Tiebreaker over Indiana fella. IMPROVEMENT FROM LAST YEAR!!

 

[Tecumseh]

Well, if the Bucks play like this in the Rose Bowl, it doesn't matter who they play. They'll get waxed again.

 

[PizzaDeliveryGuy]

I'll be glad when Small graduates.

 

[Death Bytes]

#2. It boggles my mind how OSU has only one offensive TD thus far.

After 9 years of Tressel play calling, it doesn't boggle me at all.

 

[Guster]

Crap! INT Michigan on a ball off Posey

 

[Guster]

Big 3rd down conversion by Michigan there - if tOSU stops them, it's probably too long for a FG attempt

 

[ChrisCooleyFan]

LOL Derek

 

[PizzaDeliveryGuy]

Ugh.

 

[ChrisCooleyFan]

I like this Smith kid

 

[Guster]

Wow, great recovery by Prior there after the fumble on the snap

 

[cj*]

OSU offense=Brandon Saine

 

[Guster]

I know Prior wants to learn to be a more complete QB and I know that Tressel likes to call a conservative game, but at some point, they've got to let Prior loose more and just let his legs help carry the team, right?

 

[ChrisCooleyFan]

Come on DEF

 

[derek245583]

LOL Derek

wut r we lol'ing?

 

[Tecumseh]

#3 for Michigan is a little punk. Keeps going after the blockers knees.

Boren is a Fat ### holds everytime

 

[ChrisCooleyFan]

Derek why cant Forcier tackle on Def?

 

[cj*]

Woolfolk given herron the business after herron busts off a 15-20 yard run. lmao

 

[ChrisCooleyFan]

We need 10 more guys like Graham

 

[Guster]

Great TD for tOSU there!!

 

[Tecumseh]

Bwahahahahaha!!!

 

[ChrisCooleyFan]

Nice call buy tress there

 

[cj*]

Beautiful play call!!!

 

[Guster]

12 plays, 89 yards of Tressel ball

 

[Tecumseh]

Pryor with a nice touch on that screen. Gotta give credit where it's due...

 

[derek245583]

What a terrible play call by Greg Robinson?

WTF would you blitz 8 guys? Did you plan on knocking them out of fg range? Barring a 25 yard sack...I doubt it.

Just excellent football intelligence on the UM sideline.

 

[derek245583]

Derek why cant Forcier tackle on Def?

I am a bit confused here guy...He has led OSU to as many TD's as he has UM.

 

[ChrisCooleyFan]

Feel sorry for Graham. Guys does it all by himself. Noone there to pick it up.

 

[Death Bytes]

Is this the first OSU game you've watched this year?

 

[Guster]

Great tackle for Homan to force the punt.

 

[Tecumseh]

Mezko is from Twinsburg?? Huh. My home town.

lol - I was referencing the play calling the entire year, not this one game.

Kid is a true freshman, they are down to the 3rd rb, They have a Rf at slot, soph wr, fr rb, possibly one of the best centers in college out. This is young young team. There are rebuilding, its gonna take some time.

 

[Guster]

Uugh - that's the second shot deep that OSU has taken and Prior overthrew both of them

 

[ChrisCooleyFan]

Well Tate, we need you. Please come in relaxed, and lets see what you cn do.

 

[PizzaDeliveryGuy]

It is a shame that Posey doesn't have a better throwing QB getting the ball to him. That being said,

 

[derek245583]

Gotta score here and it need to be a TD imo

 

[Guster]

Well Tate, we need you. Please come in relaxed, and lets see what you cn do.

Keeping things interesting

 

[Guster]

That's an INT

 

[PizzaDeliveryGuy]

Int.

 

[Tecumseh]

Int.

 

[ChrisCooleyFan]

That's an INT

Dont understand why Drob comes in runs 2, then Tate has to come in and pass. That is the worse.

 

[derek245583]

Who is that big dude in the over the top OSU gear? Is he somebody special?

 

[ChrisCooleyFan]

All in for Graham
