Our defense is totally shutting them down. Michigan’s gone three and out how many times now?

Ah, I hate college football. Bad tackling, bad routes, bad everywhere.  
Just got back from Best Buy. I heard something about a 60 yard run?

Same difference. Another big run there. Bad hammy, though.  
Gotta hand it to State. You’ve gotta be able to run the rock in bad weather and they’ve done that.

Crap. Is Henne helping or hurting the offense? One thing is for sure: they’re going to run the ball.

Okay, he aired the first pass out. I’ll shut up now.

As an aside (an edited one): has anyone noticed how there have been a lot more illegal formation penalties this year?

Michigan defense is looking very good. The offense is playing like ass, though.

Ohio State wins. Decent game, but I wish it would have been better.

Well, not exactly, because of his bad back, but yes, he’s very pleased.

This is a bit of a hard day for him…his father was a huge OSU fan, and if they didn’t watch the game together, they would call each other immediately after. His father died three years ago, so he’s a bit down, missing his dad.

But still…very classy of Tressel to make the team take a knee when they were within scoring range…no need to rub it in.

So Carr is retiring, or being asked to retire?

Probably a combination of the two. I’ve been critical of him for a few years now.

I know it’s no consolation, but my consolation to the **lad**. 'Twas a well fought game. Sorry for the loss of\*\* ivyladdad\*\*. Yes, I just wanted to tye that out.

The Big Ten, traditionally, has been pretty classy with regards to running up scores and not doing that.

Thanks, **Least Original User Name Ever**.

I remember Tressel doing that earlier in the season…maybe against Penn State?
