| WEATHER: | Perfect for The Game |
It's here. The day we wait the other 364 days for.
The Wolverines come in limping -- as they have for every edition of The Game under Rodriguez -- but never underestimate a wounded team that can make their season with an upset in Columbus.
For Jim Tressel and the Buckeyes, today is all about streaks. A win would be seven-straight over the hated Wolverines and put the team in position to share a sixth-straight Big Ten championship.
Welcome to the hatinest open thread of the year.

WE DON'T GIVE A DAMN.....
About the whole state of Michigan, the whole state of Michigan, the whole state of Michigan ... we don't give a damn about the whole state of Michigan, we're OHIO
I think those unis are going to confuse the hell out of an already confused and beat up Wolvereen team.
"Here officer, hold my beer while I find my license."
Tailgaiting now and freezing my @ss off! Go Bucks!
What have you done to Beat Michigan today?
hey hey hey..don't say that word here...

Fan of bacon since 1981
Anyone watching Game Day? Herbie and Corso are defending BSU by saying that Nevada is a REALLY good team.
4letter is really upset with the loss. They were looking for a playoff system so they can make more money.
Herbie was absolutely in LOVE with Boise St. It was pretty disturbing.
At least Desmond said the kicker lost the game for them. He said it was his job to win the game. While that it true, the way the game was going, the kicker shouldn't have been in the position to win the game in the first place.
An excerpt from the Book of Jim, "And he said, I will sacrifice all of my extremities to the bitter Ohio cold without hesitation, in thy name Tressel and his son Pryor."
Amen
It's 11:00am........

"Winter is coming" - Urban Meyer
Those uniforms are hideous. Go Bucks!
Hate mode: Activated
I recall on a Cleveland sportstallk station around, I'll say 1997, when a TSUN fan called in and said, "Its not really even a rivalry anymore, its just another game to us," in a poorly chosen arrogance akin to only them.
Well, let me tell you, beating down the rat-infested, mulleted, bloated weasel-cats from Ann Arbor a hundred times in a row will still be as sweet as the first time. Never, and I mean never will we ever take for granted neither the importance nor the significance of the greatest rivalry in all of sports.
And that's what makes us better. Go Bucks!
www.charliebaumandeservedit.com
Every win against TTUN is sweet, no mattter if we've just gone 2-10-1 or have won 6 in a row, whether they are undefeated or 3-7. I love beating them and so does all of Buckeye nation. Go Bucks!!
Anybody else not have sound or is dish network doing me a favor cause Matt millen is calling the game?
Herby has been patiently explaining to us why Boise St should be viewed as a very high quality team. Whoops!!!!!
Big Ten! Big Ten! Big Ten!
The monotone play by play guy kills the broadcast all by himself and then you add Millen. have we found something else he can't do besides be a GM for an NFL team?
Big Ten! Big Ten! Big Ten!
Yeah not a fan of this Mcdonough fellow. Reference has been made before, but dude sounds like Reverend Lovejoy.
Tearing down the banner never, ever gets old
I don't really mind the alternates
Those helmets are throwing me off...
Would another slow start really surprise anyone?
Not one bit.
The bad thing is that Michigan's offense is definitely going to take advantage of it
Can we stop them?
Big Ten! Big Ten! Big Ten!
Well, they moved the ball last year.
Excellent.
Nice
Fortunately we can stop them.
Big Ten! Big Ten! Big Ten!
2 3 and outs on this D?
"Without winners, there wouldn't even be civilization." -----------Woody Hayes
Good punt coverage? WUT
Sigh. We did this same crap last year and the year before. Michigan's defense always plays a quarter and takes the rest off. Even so, I'd like to see a first down.
Agree, but then this "super quarterback" that we have who has yet to be used effectively except in sporadic episodes is getting old.
www.charliebaumandeservedit.com
Brian Cook had a good point this week where Tress only seems to deploy the read-option spread when we're under pressure in games. Did it last year in this game, in point of fact.
Here's hoping we see it on the next offensive drive.
That was a mouthful for that ref. Haha.
I've already moved to "just keep them from scoring mode"
Did our secondary grease their hands earlier? Whats up with these weak ass tackles attempts?
www.charliebaumandeservedit.com
OJ getting owned as usual
We'll take that. Though, objectively, that was a BS holding call against Schilling.
Better get the swagger on this possession. UM IS going to score points before the 1/2. While I have confidence in this team in the 2nd as we come out well adjusted, UM has been much better then as well. Absolutely NO excuse to play down to a terrible defense.
There we go. Was looking for him to take off but that was even better.
And Millen... only one Z in Sanzenbacher.
Dont worry we are in FG range. There is no reason to try and get anymore yardage.
www.charliebaumandeservedit.com
Thank goodness they can't catch a ball.
Sweet punt
There we go. Let's open the floodgates.
The running game is obviously not working. Let's torch that secondary of theirs.
See what happens when you listen to flipbuckeye?
Starting to breathe now...can't eat or breathe during this game. I agree, beating them 100 times in a row, each time will be as sweet as the first.
I saw a kid that really looked like Bo this morning, maybe 18 or 19 years old. I wanted to drop a few choice words but I had my daughter with me.

No matter how sh*tty the tour is, it's always tough to leave.
That didn't take long. This is going to get ugly.
SWEET TURNOVER!!!
"Don't put syrup on shit, and tell me it's pancakes"
No matter how sh*tty the tour is, it's always tough to leave.
I want another TD before the half!!!
"Don't put syrup on shit, and tell me it's pancakes"
No matter how sh*tty the tour is, it's always tough to leave.
I am also assuming the lack of comments is because everyone else is at the game.

Lol...UCONN is going to a BCS game in the second year up from I-AA

Yea and Boise is suddenly relegated to the Humanitarian Bowl, that's fair.
Ugh. I had a feeling that was going to happen. 31-7 might have been ball game.
Can't believe Washington had clutch catch. Sanz is the man
Middletown Middies State Champs.
http://www.scoutingohio.com/in...
How about the two seniors stepping up on that early drive?! Loved seeing T-Wash make that catch. He hung around when a lot of others would have bolted.
This feels a lot like the Rose Bowl against Oregon.
Having two fat butts on the defensive line at the same time is a no go against the spread.
3 year starter.
Yeah, but I have a decade of Madden in me and still make that throw sometimes when I'm feeling cocky and playing with a big lead.
Only 9 touches in the first half for Boom and Zoom
How long till Kenny G and J Berry
Middletown Middies State Champs.

Probably never, unless we make some defensive adjustments
hat.Didn't know Hines had coverage like t

Tate is picking up where he left off from 2009.
Johnny Hooker: "He's not as tough as he thinks". Henry Gondorff: "Neither are we".
That's #1. :)
Millen is an idiot.
"Don't put syrup on shit, and tell me it's pancakes"
No matter how sh*tty the tour is, it's always tough to leave.
Dumb refs. Two knees, an elbow, and an ass hit the ground before the ball pops out and they don't blow a whistle.
who starts opposite of Howard next year.

http://www.scoutingohio.com/in...
in case you wher wondering, the 1942 score was 21-7; only game we lost was to Wisky.
"Don't put syrup on shit, and tell me it's pancakes"
No matter how sh*tty the tour is, it's always tough to leave.
And Boom goes the dynamite.
Boom

This is stupid.
"Don't put syrup on shit, and tell me it's pancakes"
No matter how sh*tty the tour is, it's always tough to leave.
These excessive celebration calls are ridiculous. SMH.
Next OSU score; the runner/receiver needs to turn to UM bench with a crotch-grab. How's that for a sign?!
Johnny Hooker: "He's not as tough as he thinks". Henry Gondorff: "Neither are we".
Dane made the same O sign and didn't get flagged. Posey and Boom do it and the flags go flying. How about a little consistency, refs?
It's The fxcking Game and the last for some, let them show some emotion.
maybe the refs figured that Dane's TD would be it for OSU, since D-Rob stated that he thought UM had one of the best defenses in the country.
Johnny Hooker: "He's not as tough as he thinks". Henry Gondorff: "Neither are we".
Better call unsportmanlike on the ppl who painted that O on the field.
HELLL YESSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Don't put syrup on shit, and tell me it's pancakes"
No matter how sh*tty the tour is, it's always tough to leave.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!
F these refs.
"Don't put syrup on shit, and tell me it's pancakes"
No matter how sh*tty the tour is, it's always tough to leave.
Ref has asked that we stop scoring
What a bullshit call on Dane! Oh, UMM player had Dane's facemask? Didn't see it.
Johnny Hooker: "He's not as tough as he thinks". Henry Gondorff: "Neither are we".
Poor Boom.
Hands to the face, but let's call holding.
"Don't put syrup on shit, and tell me it's pancakes"
No matter how sh*tty the tour is, it's always tough to leave.
These refs have been fucking terrible all day. Missed obvious calls, shitty spots, making terrible judgment calls on the celebrations and on that hold. This game is fucking over. Let 'em play and have fun.
Did we bring these refs in from the Big XII?
Johnny Hooker: "He's not as tough as he thinks". Henry Gondorff: "Neither are we".
I think they were shipped in from the SEC. This is corruption Nucky Thompson would be proud of.
That's probably a better explanation
Johnny Hooker: "He's not as tough as he thinks". Henry Gondorff: "Neither are we".
AND WHEN WE WIN THE GAME WE'LL BUY A KEG OF BOOOOOZE .......
Dane should look a the Ref and say WHAT SHOULD I DO. lol video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BCJ4BOvQtZc

These. refs. are. stupid. IT'S THE FXCKING GAME.
UM's Lewan needs his young ass kicked
Johnny Hooker: "He's not as tough as he thinks". Henry Gondorff: "Neither are we".
At least this is a game scUM team, unlike last year.
"Don't put syrup on shit, and tell me it's pancakes"
No matter how sh*tty the tour is, it's always tough to leave.
True, although Lewan has been a dick all game.
Johnny Hooker: "He's not as tough as he thinks". Henry Gondorff: "Neither are we".
jesus christ, they can't placekick, nor can they punt.
Johnny Hooker: "He's not as tough as he thinks". Henry Gondorff: "Neither are we".
Q: Is Rich Rod gonna cry again today?
"Don't put syrup on shit, and tell me it's pancakes"
No matter how sh*tty the tour is, it's always tough to leave.
A: From what I've seen this afternoon, I don't blame him.
Johnny Hooker: "He's not as tough as he thinks". Henry Gondorff: "Neither are we".
did you see the OSU ball boy look at RR and start laughing just afew secs ago?

Holding call of course; OSU is threatening to score.

That was the right call.
For once.
On a related matter; t looks like Brewster's snaps have been a little high and left today.
Johnny Hooker: "He's not as tough as he thinks". Henry Gondorff: "Neither are we".
Well, that was some coverage fromUM's #22. Has he been watching Chekwa?

Looks like that should've been caught.
Jeesh, between FG's and kickoffs, Barclay will need to ice down his leg.

Hahahahaha. Position change in Forcier's future.
I think that UM has found their punter.

“There’s one thing I have learned through all my adventures and conquests - it’s that some people are just wired for success. I had no choice when it came to being great - I just am great.” – Kenny Powers
And some manlove to our defense. Holding a high scoring offense to 7 points through 3 quarters is damn impressive.
