Wow Tennessee almost got beat by the 3 finishing team in the Big Ten

Florida just got beat by the 4

Georgia beat Hawaii but earlier in the year they weren't playing that well so who knows

And Lsu was inconsistent and struggled for 3 quarters against Tulane

Osu would probably finish in the top 3 of the Sec, i guarentee you that if one of those teams were in the Big Ten they wouldnt be going to the Nc every year

4th, but that doesn't matter. Tenn still got the win, it doesn't matter how they did it.

Mark just so you know, Wisky had me on the edge of my chair. I'm probably why they lost actually, I started out 13-2 on my picks sheet, had a two win lead... Lost 5-6 that day. Now I'm behind by two. Need Kansas and Ohio state to both win just to get me back into a tie position...

Some Buckeyes do go over the top. Generally speaking, I dont think were as bad as most SEC fans. Buckeye football is a pretty passionate thing here in central Ohio. I mean lets face it, we dont have much else to root for.

Thanks for the support Mark.

I think that's OSU's key to winning the NC. If Boeckman plays like he did against PSU, I like our chances. If he plays like he did against Illinois, it's gonna be last year all over again. Because Beanie's not gonna be able to run all over LSU like he did UM, especially if Dorsey is healthy..
There is 3 keys to us winning this game. Two go hand in hand.
#1. Boekman ~ #2. Turnovers.

We cant win with him throwing the way he did 4 or 5 games this year. Especially the way he did against Illinois and Michigan. Todd needs to have a clean game. Which will probably mean no passing over 15 yards.

#3. is Defense. If this ends up an offensive mayhem game like Michigan and Florida, were done.

I was rooting for Wisconsin against Tennessee. I just can't stand any of their fans.

I guess having 75 year old men swear at you and others throw all sorts of objects at you have that effect on personal opinions.

Sorry if I disrespected you with rude comments. That's gotta be rough to take.



The Patriots would be 2-8 in the SEC.

That was a bowl game, this is the season where things are different. Didn't UM lose to App. State their first game? You think they would have lost to them in a bowl game? Get real dude.

App St. runs a spread involving more athletiscm then running over ppl (like Tebow) Michigan is a physical slower team.

There would be a decent shot App St. could beat them again

Yeah right emerald. App. State beating Michigan was one of the biggest upsets if not the biggest in college football history. App. State got really lucky against a caught off gaurd Michigan team.

Since we're talking hypothetically has App St. already beat Michigan once they play or is it their first meeting?

If its again then your right I have no doubt Michigan would win

If not then i doubt that Michigan would be prepared for the spread as much....lets face it if your on Michigan (or any other big name school for that matter) then when you watch film of a 1AA school you'll think your more athletic, stronger, better and you won't prepare as hard.

Nah, coaching [why no FG in Q4? ... instead, turnover] and our overly do-it-myself QB.

Was happy we made it a real game, though.


IMO, we were ranked correctly at the end of this year ... we're not the team we were in the 90's this decade. Pretty good, but just not dominant and not consistent for all 60 minutes.

I'm just thankful we're not the team we were in the 70's and 80's, whose only bright spot was the Al Toon bounce-pass play to beat Michigan. The greatest football play I'm likely to see in person in my life, esp as it was used to beat Michigan
Other than that, the decade was a waste of money on tickets.

The SEC is 6-2 in bowl games Grim and about to be 7-2. Seems pretty dominant to me.

Keep in mind Bo Polini isn't coaching defensive coordinator for LSU for the BCS championship, and he adds a ton to that team.

watch out for nebraska next year with Bo as the head coach..haha.. we're going to have a winning season! go huskers.
