Ohio State still struggles in the first quarter then blows them away the rest of the game. =]

I am afraid it is going to be a HARD fought close game. But the Bucks will prevail because they are in Cbus! 24-17. Northwestern will be ready to play ball Saturday, they are NOT as bad as they looked against Duke!

I think we roll over them this week.

This is the Big Ten now. So this whole "wear the opposing team out with physical play" technique won't work quite as well, since that's how the entire Big Ten plays.

But, I do feel that this one will be a blowout, and I don't call for blowouts too often. Of course a Tressel blowout is nothing like a Pete Carroll blowout.

27-10 Ohio State.

27-10 Ohio State.

I think it'll be 27-3...our defense doesn't let them in the endzone.

BTW, si this gonna be on ESPN/ABC or BTN?

I believe it's on ESPN. I don't think anymore OSU games will be on the BTN.

Atleast 1 more game will be on BTN. I think they are gonna take the kent state game. Also there is a rumor that the Wisky game might be on it. I just don't see how they could do that one. 2 top 10 teams. I hope its done. I heard that time warner will not get the network till atleast 2008 or 2009. Im about to switch.

Im actually not concerned on this one. If duke can beat NW then we should smoke them. I guess key word is should. NW has played us tough recently. Still im gonna go with 35-10.

A Tressel blowout only occurs when he is slowed up by the team dumping Gatorade on him in the sidelines, preventing him from getting out onto the field and tackling Brandon Saine to stop a simple off tackle play from turning into a long TD run.

Reading some of his quotes after the game, he seemed truly sorry for scoring that last TD and had to make sure Ty knew he wasn't trying to run up the score. I respect the guy for having class, but the evil part of me sometimes want to see a Spurrier like drubbing.
