It is 5:30am and I am leaving for Columbus and MICHIGAN STILL SUCKS!!!!!!!
It’s 6:23 and I can’t go back to sleep, can’t stop thinking about the Game.
it’s 6:44 I’m about to leave for the Shoe– OH–
It’s 7:45 am…. I am at work till 11am (off the clock cash)……… home by 1130——- me, junk food, beer and the game!! Doesn’t get any better!!!
Thank G-D for the internet….. I am listening to 1460 the fan pregame out of Columbus!
Been up since 4. Just popped the first BL.
Piss on michigan.
Sitting in a coffee shop in the state up north. The consensus up here….. Michigan SUCKS!
Still drunk from last night….lets go and get these fuckers
second the still drunk from last night, lets go MICHIGAN…….STATE!
Varmint Cong. Hey Wolverines! You’re varmints. You’re one of the lowest members of the food chain and you’ll probably be replaced by the rat. I guess we’re playing for keeps now. I guess the kidding around is pretty much over. I guess it’s just a matter of pumping about five thousand gallons of Beanie down your throats to teach you a little bit of a lesson. Is that it? I think it is!
It is 8:37am central time. I am getting ready to head to the Ohio State Alumni Club of Greater Kansas City. Then we will cheer the Bucks on in THE Game.
0943, and I’m ready to go. Even my fat rear end can’t eat due to excitement.
Let’s hope the boys feel the same way. Go Bucks!!!
(Lord, am I nervous.)
it’;s 6:50 pacific and i have been up for maybe half an hour…. and michigan STILL sucks! oihwefjhfkencxljkhwefndsjkchxznsdkjf!!!@#@!@”#$%%%
sorry, had to get that outta my system
10:57 Atlantic Time, just 2 more hours!!!
been up since 0630 in Virginia Beach…listening to 1460, putting on the grill in 5…4…3…2…1
O H
It’s 7:00 AM in Seattle, I’m still a little drunk from last night, my head is pounding from the northwest beers I was drinking….FUKC MICHIGAN!!!
Ready to Rock boys!!!!! Just went through a tour of my favorite buckeye youtubes (Cie Grant is #1). Now listening to 1460 online. Heading to a Michigan fans house to watch the game, and should be a GREAT DAY!
1,000,000-0 Buckeyes.
Ok, where’s my t-shirt?
Everytime I watch that video of Cie Grant singing Carmen Ohio it almost brings a tear to my eye.
I love TP (obviously), but I would love it if Boeckman threw a TD pass
There’s a Buckeye’s fan with a great sign on the secondary stage of Gameday at OU. Nice!
Did they send the Michigan Tech team in their place?
Common Buckeyes! I have a bet with a Crapperines fan at work. OSU must beat UM by AT LEAST 13 points for me to win my bet. I think I’m safe!
I love drinking beer in the morning. Let’s go Bucks!
O H
I-O!!!
let’s go bucks, went and tailgated. The place was buzzing
Loved the midfield tussle. Buckeyes are going to be ready to lay some wood.
It’s 2.07am, I’m floating in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, and M——n still sucks!
Let’s do this.
Let’s do this dance!
P.S. Who at ABC thinks Paul McGuire adds value to a broadcast?
Great throw and catch.
Spoke too soon.
Bad throw great catch.
Nader will not allow a touchdown.
Was that a draw for Sheridan? Really?
Nice stand. And Animal got to plant Sheridan on the play.
Big hit…love to see the punishment from off the edge.
LOL, shutout in tact.
I love the blitz off the edge on 3rd and 15…force sheridan into quick decisions and he will fail.
With Sheridan at QB we could probably get away with blitzing every single time.
Our offensive line isn’t helping things early in this game.
stewart would never play again
They have a decent defensive front and they’re going to come out fired up.
Tressel is thinking that he just needs to flip the field and then let his defense go to work.
wooo-hoo!!
The most important play in football, ladies and gentleman.
And geez is this Wolverine team pretty terrible.
Nice way to flip the field.
Right on cue, Michigan.
This Michigan team isn’t giving us our bread and butter plays. So far. Not a good start
fumble u!
Pryor looking like a freshman so far. That INT is probably in his head. No zip on the ball.
Once Pryor settles down this is over.
Well at least we have field position.
Michigan is going to bring the blitz all day, the Oline and TP better start stepping up.
Offensive line can’t get it up for The Game. Shouldn’t suprise us, given the last four monumental games we’ve had
I’d be a lot more worried if Michigan fielded a competent offense. And Hartline is crazy.
Okay let’s never try diving for a punt again.
at least he flashed effort for a change…but yeah, no more diving for punts.
OSU O-line has to start imposing its will. The sooner the run can get established, the sooner Pryor will settle down.
Michigan’s going to be blitzing all day, as mentioned earlier. Time for some screens or anything aside from run run pass punt
Run run pass, wow what a shocking turn of events.
Yep.
Pryor is wearing blinders.
At least he held on to the ball.
That was pathetic, can we sub in some new o linemen?
Michigan would be winning decisively if they fielded a good offense.
The “who am I” is Tom Brady
How about some playcalling adjustments? They’re stacking the box everytime and we’re still trying to attack it.
Just in case you guys didn’t know, Thaddeus Gibson eats the babies of QBs
This isn’t good defense, Brad Nessler. This is bad offense.
Wow, Ray Small in the game.
How do you rush two and still get the sack? Wow they suck.
Just hope the OSU O can finally wake up.
Beanie’s Yearly Special.
BEANIE!!!!
I love Beanie Wells. And yes, it’s totally gay. I’m not ashamed in any sense of the word.
Boom goes the dynamite.
Now THAT’s what I mean by getting Beanie into the game.
Here we go!
That’s the risk with blitzing every down.
Is McGuffie dead?
Holy crap… I wonder if McGuffie regrets coming back.
that hit should be enough to make McGuffie transfer
Don’t taunt McGuffie, kids. He’ll float all over you.
Oh, how I do enjoy these Michigan 3rd and longs.
The defensive line has definitely shown up, critical against the read-option
I want to see him try to leap the Neck.
so far, the O-line has played out of cat, which I assume is the opposite of out of hound.
but at least cordel and reiring had good blocks on beanie’s td run.
Sammie Byrne, YUR DOIN IT RONG.
I’m not gonna lie. I LOVE seeing U-M struggle. It’s just nice to see them put where they belong.
Cris Carter on the sideline…very nice!
With the defense playing so well, Evil Tressel would call a play-action bomb.
Rehring found his helmet, did you see Herron screaming “NO STEVE THAT’S NOT AN ODDLY-SHAPED HESHEY’S KISS YOU FAT MOTHERF- oh thanks never mind”
Not with the way Pryor’s been chucking them up.
We could see 80 straight handoffs the rest of this game.
I fear you’re right, Corey.
My god, we picked up a blitz AND completed a pass. How did the Shoe not cave in?
Word is McGuffie is crying on the sideline.
Beautiful.
Good stuff.
Somewhere, Andre Ware is saying we’re running up the score.
BEAUTIFUL throw. I don’t think I’ve seen a better long throw and catch in many many years out of an OSU QB.
lol pogue.
japanbuck… Troy Smith to 7-11???
Yes, Ware is completely pissed right now.
Odoms, given a good offensive line, will be good too. Not Pryor good, but still a dangerous weapon.
Troy to 7-11 was solid too, but this was about a 50 yard throw on a line and in absolutely perfect stride.
We’ve been complaining that he’s been putting too much air under the ball, kinda like TB did, but he’s not doing that today.
Yeah, I have a feeling that Jenkins was telling him to hurry up and get good because the rivalry needs that.
Japan = well, he was earlier, but not anymore. And my God, tOSU punters like to live more dangerously than James freaking Bond.
pryor also took a hit when making that throw. probably his best of the year.
Are Dantonio and Snyder the only two former Tressel assistants with head jobs now?
Anyone else catch the ESPN feature on the Pirate this morning? Leach is Stooops’ 5th former assistant with a head job, the most of any active coach.
not punters, punt returners.
Beanie needs a breather after being the entire offense, OSU fantards calling him soft in 3….2…..1
So anyone wanna guess if/when Boeckman sees the field?
I think if we are up 20 or more at the half, he may start the 3rd.
Start of 2nd half if we keep up this pace.
Nobody @ ABC knows hot to flip an image horizontally?
No, but they know how to work the telestrator, apparently.
If we go for this, evil Jim Tressel, with his cape-sweatervest combo and nefarious goatee, will be making an appearance.
Ah.. good no call.
How was that NOT pass interference?
Robo still should have made that catch though.
Aw that should’ve been caught.
It looks like Robiskie initiated the contact.
This must feel like the ones going against the twos in practice for the defense.
Dirty spot.. that 1st down streak is important!
What an awful spot.
RichRod goes for it.
Two first downs on the same drive… unacceptable!
If they score, I’m going to be depressed.
This is disappointing.
Time to be depressed Jason. Defense has disappeared.
they have like two running plays
let’s let them back in game!
Good stop.
INT!! INT!! Oh, please, please, INT!!
Damnit.
Lame.
Defense looked better, but I’m worried again. Offense needs to score before the half.
They stuck to that base offense and it eventually worked. Unfortunately.
If RR can ever get the folks he wants, U-M could be good again. I’m not one of those who think U-M will be bad for a long time with RR, especially with the offenses he has had in the past. Thuggish and classless, maybe, but not bad.
Hopefully Pryor’s nerves has settled.
Great series.
Hey, remember when we had momentum? Wasn’t that grand?
Wow. Glad to see we came out fired up to score before the half.
Again another shitty effort at the end of the first half. If you’re gonna run then at least let some time go by. Didn’t they learn from last week????!?!
line can’t block forever. he needs to get rid of it.
That wasn’t all on the line. Come on defense.
When this offense is talented, we’re going to have a lot of trouble stopping it if Heacock lingers for a few years.
Took away Nick’s bubble and he made a good progression.
This is pathetic.
blitz!
pogue, he is a great coach.
I think Ness just said if you take away our touchdowns, they’d be winning.
Classic Nessler. Thank goodness Bob Griese isn’t too talkative today.
Heacock is a PUSSY
Anyone smell that? I think its the o-line. If they think they’ll win a bowl with that blocking, they’re fucking kidding.
Michigan could be good again, problem is that offense has a small margin for error.
Are they playing two hand touch out there?
Boy, Michigan isn’t even breaking a sweat here. What’s happened?
Getting a little too close for comfort and giving some of their young guys confidence for next season.
A score here takes the wind out of Michigan’s sails. Tressel realizes it, but will he call plays to actually get it done? We shall see.
Uh, Beanie nearly took that 90 yards.
Finally. A first down.
This is probably the last time we’re going to see Beanie in the Shoe. But Herron looks like he’s coming along nicely.
BOOM!!!!!!!
Okay, we have the mo back, please don’t shoot ourselves in the foot. HERRON YOU SEXY SEXY BEAST I LOVE YOU TOO SCHNOOKUMS
Give the offensive line some credit for coming out and making some changes.
Jason – agreed. They’ve come out with a fire I haven’t seen all season.
I think Boom’s going to be ok.
That was awesome. Good blocking on the left side to blow those two plays wide open.
Why doesn’t Stacey Dales just replace Paul Maguire? This crew would be thrice as watchable.
Bummer.
Great.
That was a garbage call
I’m gonna miss MJ so damn much.
Yeah, Jenkins has had a huge year.
This is the pit away drive!
Probably one of the best plays of his career. Someone described him as just a notch under Champ Bailey in those draft articles you linked, and really, I think he’ll be just as good. Guy hasn’t blown a coverage (that I can recall) since Wisky last year.
One more score and we can go back to prevent and let them back in the game!
I love the fact that he was also a little under the radar coming out of HS.
Too soon for Boeckman?
lol flip. You’re destroying my post-touchdown optimism for touchdowns that haven’t even occured yet.
Crap, Beanie limped off. Please be okay, bowl break or not.
Blood on his sock. Shitballs.
Jesus, how are we letting guys get this wide open?!
Let’s finish them with pick 6
Thank you for that brilliant call, RichRod.
Sheridan’s hurt, David CONEBONE TIME!
Nice job Small!!
Terrific return for Small! I’ve been hoping for him to get loose for a big one after all the stuff he’s been through.
TD ROBO!
There we go.
Way to finish.
Touchdown to Robiskie after a beastly return by Small. Way to go out, flyin’ Brian number one!
I was about to ask about Feagin. Odd that it took a Sheridan injury.
I like that call.
Pryor is having fun!
Uh…wow?
I think that’s called “clowning”.
holy sanzenbacher!
And I thought OSU’s tackling was bad.
I’d like to see a Pryor TD run here and then TB for the rest of the game.
This is a great game so far.
Oh crap. That might be a pick.
Pick?
I’ll take that.
It’s almost like we break new running backs in by putting them into a position to go off against Michigan. Pitt, Beanie and now Boom.
This is SOOO worth getting at 2am for! Too bad I can’t actually go celebrate.
Alright, Michigan. Punt the ball and force a safety on us and that program cover is MINE!
Alright, I’m headed to Mongolian Barbecue. Later, Gents
See ya, pogue.
Up 4 touchdowns in the 4th quarter is nice, but I want MORE.
TB needs to air it out a little.
Is there any report on McGuffie? OOOOOps gonna be 42-7. here comes Toddy boy.
TB
Let’s get an ovation for the Todd.
RASTA!!! Pass the dutchie!!!!!!!!
Good to see Rasta still has it.
Awesome!
Excellent.
one more for the road for The Todd. What a great day.
O HELL YES!!!!
I want more…
Wooooooooooo!
HELL YEA TODD, THAT’S MAH BOY!
That was Jenkins, not TP, Brad.
Meanwhile…
MGoBlog shut down their live chat and Brian was promising at one point to do away with them. May their offseason be long and suffering.
http://mgoblog.com/content/ohio-state-open-thread-2
our honor defend guy got camera time!
Will Tressel go for 2 if we score again?
Poor UM fans. Boeckman throws a TD, Brian@Mgoblog: “See ya next week” *shuts down liveblog*
I can’t believe we let them score 7.
Yeah, it is kind of frustrating in hindsight.
DIE GRIESE!
Griese on the Boeckman bandwagon for reasons no one understands.
When exactly have we needed that this year?
Ahem.. he has thrown two nice balls today.
YEAH TB to ROBO!
We have confirmed evil Tressel sighting. Boeckman with the pretty pass.
What a piece of S*** Bob Griese is..I guess starting Pryor didn’t work out so well, only a Big 10 co championship. What an idiot.
Stuff it Bobbo.
Lane!
Safety anyone? The D needs some points today.
HIGHWAY ROBBERY
Even if his feet are in the endzone? Bleh.
Did I just see Purdue hanging 62 on IU? Holy god…
Good for Joe Tiller.
I loved the attitude on Williams, even if it wasn’t ruled a safety.
You know gentleman. Today, is a great day.
Less Rasta, more deep bombs!
How does everyone figure UM to be better next year with all the new players coming in? They will be in their first year learning the system like these guys this year.
JB Shugarts sighting.
Next year’s newbies fit RichRod’s system. Threet, Sheridan, Minor, Grady… not so much.
You would think the announcers would have done their homework on the gold pants things. But then again…these guys just suck.
This just in: Jim Tesssels head swiveled 360 degrees and he started chanting something in Latin.
Andrew Sweat (on defense) sighting.
Play action deep bomb!!! You know you wanna call it Tressel!!!
Well gents, it’s been a great Sunday morning. I’m going back to bed; long day ahead; GO BUCKS!
Marcus Williams sighting. Boy we really are emptying the benches for this one.
Like the way 24 runs!
If my preliminary math is correct, this is the second biggest margin of victory for the Bucks in the series rivalry, correct? Missed the 1968 mark by one point.
That was a tough 42-7 victory huh coach?
err, forgot about 1935. Whoops.
Let’s go Sparty.
Go Green!!! Go White!!!!
ha haaaaaa one point off in my prediction, holla
bup, were you closest?
ESPN post-game commentators are dicks! Couldn’t give us any respect! Had to say ” Not sold on TP as passer” instead.
“bup, were you closest?”
i think so unless i missed a dude who got it exact, one point away from a free framing apparently? damn
YES!!!
ALL YOU YOUNG GUYS, REMEMBER THIS WELL. I GREW UP WITH BUCKEYE TEAMS LOSING 5 IN A ROW. NEVER WOULD I THINK THIS WOULD EVER HAPPEN, 5 IN A ROW!!!!!
Cool, I just sent you an email.
thanks jason
Great game! Great season!
RIVALRY FAIL!!!!!!!!! 5-peat scUMbags!!!
I’m in the same boat as Chief here, it’s a great time to be a BUCKEYE!!!
It’s good day to be a buckeye! F_U Michigan and DickRod…
O….H
Holy Happy Valley! It looked just like today looks the only time I was ever there.
Considering the 1990s… and the course of this rivalry before Francis Schmidt came to town (1897-1934: 22-6-2 Wolvereenies), those bastards will get no sympathy from me for the way the 2000s have unfolded.
I O!!!
Five straight is great. Thats seven of the last 8. Don’t see it getting better up there anytime soon. The seniors were yelling at the staff. Its a joke and we need to keep pounding them.
Cal Poly is beating Wisconsin 13-7 with 5 left in the 2nd quarter. Wait… what?
Thoroughly enjoyable. We should’ve gone for 2 on every TD, though.
20-7 Cal Poly with a minute left in the first half. Bret Bielema is going to run that program into the ground.
Some Final Thoughts:
O-line: Shaky, especially at the beginning. The play calling with a couple counters helped.
T Pryor: Welcome to the rivalry, you have been blessed by god with your natural talent; in addition, you have the self discipline to be a great one. You will find out your greatest enemy will be you and your emotions. If you can emotionally separate yourself when it matters most you will rise above the fray, see the field, and how the defense will try to attack you and their inherent weaknesses. Right now, you were rattled early with the pick; your foot work, ability to anticipate, feeling the rush, and knowing when to throw the ball away was inconsistent. It wil come, but you will have to work on it.
Boeckman: If Beanie was healthy and the line played more consistent throughout the year. You did well with the time you had today. However, watching the game, Coach’s call was the right one to go with Pryor.
Defense: Well played, the only time you were exposed was when scUM ran weak side counter towards the short side. T-Gibson went hard up field and the tackle could not close the gap.
Michigan State suuuuuuuuuuucks.
Anybody else seen the AP article? Wherein Minor is quoted thusly: “You can’t really blame Rich Rod because everybody on the team did not buy in like they’re supposed to. We have a couple of guys not going hard. We’ll correct that most definitely. That ain’t going to happen on my watch as a senior.”
How is this possible? What about EEEEEE BARWIS? Weren’t the Wolverines who survived the crucible of the off-season supposed to have unquestionable attitude and committment? “Those Who Stay Will Be Champions” and all that?
This is a very sick program. 3-9 is only a symptom. More in a sec…
I think Wisconsin is going to lose against Cal Poly. They just scored after their second consecutive 15+ play drive to take an 8pt lead (missed the XP). Cal Poly has 242 rushing yards and is dominating time of possession (36:41 – 15:07).
Ohio State is the best team in the big ten. PSU got lucky earlier this year. BUt we are not ready for for big boy football, yet. Maybe in a few years but not this year. FL or TTU would destroy us this year and thats ok. Next year or 2010 we will be ready for nation wide dominance. I am the biggest BUCKEYE homer but I also am able to think rationally.
SYRACUSE 24
NOTRE DAME 23
Weis 6-5 this season, 28-20 in four years, w/ USC next week…
The Blue-Gray Sky’s game thread is pretty hilarious
Where’s Blue Man and The Truth? Shouldn’t they be around here talking smack about their record prior to WWI?
I don’t understand the venom for Bob Griese. I met him in 1978, and he seemed like a very nice man. Maybe he is just trying to give a little love to the senior QB, TB.
I love the “5 wins in a row” and hope for the start of 5 more in a row, starting next year!
oh Blue Balls, where are you……
OSU knocked out your great white hope,,,,, McGuffie
Congratulations on kicking a cripple’s ass!
What, you guys didn’t want to take our cane and shove it up our ass by scoring 60? Look. Listen. Michigan sucks this year. Period. Congrats on joining eight other teams [including Toledo] who kicked our ass.
You saw our players on offense…What in the hell would you do with them? Seriously…think about this for one second. How would you compete with that O-line and back up, back up, back up, walk-on quarterback?
R.R. is a good coach who will get the job done [2010 we compete for the big ten title] Give him three recruiting class’s and then we can talk about if this was a good hire [and yes, it was!]
Michigan will be fine…Enjoy your bowl game.
Try to win it this time and make the Big Ten proud!
Why would that dude come on here? I hope you keep that jackass coach around until 2010.
Damn that other OSU winning and possibly sucking up the only at-large spot left. I’ll be a HUGE Ducks fan next week for sure. If that fails though time to get some SEC revenge in the Cap1 bowl. What a great day to be a buckeye!! I can honestly say that today when I saw “Dreads” enter the game and KNEW a dive up the middle was coming for no gain I was giddy. After 4 yrs of seeing thaplay and knowing it would fail, today i was happy to see it. GO BUCKS!!
Truth…I could easily fix it! Adjust the way I run my O to the players I have to use and tell Mallett he’s the best thing since sliced bread. Thats an easy handful of wins and a trip to a bowl game.
Yeah, we’ll enjoy 5 in a row. 7-1 in the Tressel era. 8 of the last 11, and that OSU is 30-26-2 in the last 58 years. We’ll enjoy that a lot, thanks. :-)
