Comments
That SI pic of Krenzel with the sea of OSU fans after beating Michigan is one of my favorite Ohio State photos ever.
That is also one of my favorite pictures as well. I think that one may be off of the Dispatch website which actually sells a small copy of it. However, there is a very similar, but in my opinion far superior, picture taken by an SI photographer. I went so far as to track the photographer down, compliment him on his work, and ask him if I could buy a copy from him. He told me he wasn't able to sell it to me due to SI's rules. I couldn't have been more disappointed.
Yeah, I think you are correct. Here's the pic from SI with some thoughts from the photographer:

Counting down by Fridays makes it seem a lot sooner than it actually is. Get out of here with your wizardry.
Lovin' the skull sessions and the 100's of comments they've generated the last few days. It has given me a time waster (sorting through the threads). Thanks Jeff and Dave for the last two!
