So Close

This picture is:

A) Symbolic that 1 out of 3 Buckeye fans cannot show their face in public

B) Only existent because of a bad late hit call on Crable that effectively handed Troy Smith an opportunity to score the winning touchdown

C) Me after barely losing a friendly wager with Jason and Andrea Huang

D) All of the above

All we need is a USC loss to Notre Dame this weekend and we can raise the stakes for the rematch on January 8:)

Ahh Brad, I thought you wouldn't be one of those Michigan fans that blamed the obvious helmet to helmet call, but I was wrong:-(
GO BUCKEYES!!!

Let's see...OSU only wins it by 3 on their field? They aren't as good as some think. Yea they won, in part for a dumb penalty on MI, but I think that a rematch on a neutral field (namely, Glendale) will show a much different result than Saturday.

Let's see USC fall to Notre Dame!

Let's see...OSU had more than 100 yards on offense than U of M, turned it over 3 times, the game ended with OSU having the ball, OSU had more than a 11 point lead for most of the 4th, and that was all against U of M (who probly is by far the 2nd best team in the country). If you call that close, than we are on different planets. The scoreboard was a reflection of a great game, but I don't know if it showed the whole story...If you say they (OSU) isn't as good as some say, than that is not giving U of M credit. The homefield advantage changes every year and the Buckeyes will be at Michigan next year, so I don't see your point...

oh yeah by the way that was helmet to helmet. Also, U of M got a late pass interference call that was questionable, and maybe that catch your tight-end caught hit the ground, there is always 2 sides, penalties are part of the game folks...go beyond a wolverine point of view.

Much love guys, it was a great game for the best rivalry ever.

p.s. most of my late November's, in the 1990's, were spent being destroyed during the Cooper era. Give the Scarlet & Gray some credit my friends!

At least you didn't start blaming it on the new sod. I heard that one the entire game!
