Buckeyes Eyeing Another Fiesta Bowl

  • By Jason - November 30th, 2008

The Beavers’ pain is Pete’s joy

The early end to the regular season looks to be benefiting the Buckeyes yet again as the natural flow of upsets floats the team higher into prime bowl contention. Of course, the flip side is the rust-accumulating 50 day layoff, but as instant gratification nation, we like. WE LIKE.

The Civil [...]

Mullens got off the milk carton (J. Davidson)

Ohio State used a stifling zone to shut down a horrible Samford team holding the Bulldogs to 20% from the floor (9/48) including 2/18 from three point land in a 59-22 victory that saw OSU tie the school record for fewest points allowed (Wabash, 1939).

Evan Turner dominated the [...]

Happy Thanksgiving everyone. Hope that you all get a chance to take some time off, see some family and tune into some football this weekend. Please add 7-1 to the long list of things to be thankful of.

We’re going to take the a few days off, but the action on the television should [...]

Double-Secret Rose Bowl Probation

  • By Joe - November 26th, 2008

Ohio State just finished pasting Michigan, and even though some folks can’t seem to grasp the logic, the Buckeyes can enjoy a shared Big Ten title, if not a trip to the Rose Bowl. Since Penn State has won that honor fair-and-square, let’s take a look back at another Ohio State team that didn’t [...]

Here We Go, Yo

  • By Jason - November 26th, 2008

It’s not often that you’ll find Buckeyes, Hawkeyes, Spartans, Wildcats and other Big Ten fanbases all coming together on something, but that’s exactly what you’ll see when the Civil War kicks off Saturday night. For one night at least, millions of Midwesterners will be bona fide Ducks fans.

But Bo don’t know jack, because Bo [...]

How not to look cool on the football field

With all of the Michigan week activity, we’re just now getting to this, but big news on the Google front as they announced a partnership with LIFE to digitize the venerable mag’s photo archives. Photos and etchings dating all of the way back to 1750 are [...]

Buckeye NFLer of the Week: 12

  • By Corey - November 25th, 2008

Mangold finally gets the love he deserves.

After many stellar performances in last week’s contests, there were only a handful in week 12, allowing me to give some credit to a former Buckeye whose team is making a steady climb towards the top.

In the special mention category, Shawn Springs returned from his injury to help lead [...]

Laurinaitis Bags More Hardware

  • By Jason - November 25th, 2008

James Laurinaitis was named the Big Ten’s Defensive Player of the Year for the second-straight season, becoming the first player to win the award twice since Northwestern’s Pat Fitzgerald shared honors with Shawn Springs in 1996 to earn his second. Illinois linebacker Dana Howard is the only other player win two defensive POY awards [...]

Looks like someone is gaining confidence. After scoring 9 points (3/6 treys) in the opener, Jon Diebler led all scorers with 17 points as Ohio State slipped past Bowling Green 61-57 tonight in the Schott.

The sophomore who struggled mightily with stand-on-the-perimeter-and-launch-three-itis last year, looked to drive the [...]
