Purdue There we stood on the precipice, looking into the abyss and we could clearly see Darkest Day III.  Thankfully, Travis Howard stepped front of an Indiana pass and rescued us from the nightmare which could have ended the 2011 season and doomed Luke Fickell’s tenure ...

I'm no fan of the use of Seven Nation Army in Ohio Stadium - I haven't been for a while, but it seems to sit well with the students so I've been able to shrug it off up until now. After seeing the crowds in State College tonight (and last night) singing it, I thought it would be good ...

According to ESPN's NFL Analyst, the two greatest things in the world (in order) are Andrew Luck and Sliced Bread.  There are too few superlatives in their lexicon to describe his greatness.  There has never been a pro prospect with as much potential as Andrew Luck.  He is so g...

Perhaps nothing instigates anger more than, crimes against children. How can Penn State continue to play football, this season? Fears have been expressed for the safety of Joe Paterno and Mike McQueary, should they appear at the game in Happy Valley, this weekend. And what of those attend...

Fellas, in case you care, Heavy D died this morning... (EDIT): This sucks...listened to this guy alot in HS,on the North side of Columbus with my best friend at that time, "Big" Mike Mundell, who died during our junior year because of diabetes...Mike and I  hung out alot o...

The Gold Pants Club is holding its annual Gold Pants Party on Saturday, November 26 at the Park Street Patio in Columbus. Come join former Buckeyes Craig Krenzel, Dan Wilkinson, Matt Finkes, Dee Miller,  Bob Hoying, John Hicks, Jim Karsatos and many more to watch Ohio State try for ...

http://nittanywhiteout.com/2011/08/31/rose-bowl-applauds-big-ten-championship-trophys-public-debut/ I saw a comment on an ESPN stroy which reminded me about the new B1G Championship Trophy. I called the B1G home office and left a message with Jim Delany's secretary.  She was very pol...

The calendar suggests the NCAA will will make public its ruling on Jim Tressel and Ohio State, some time between today and Monday, November 21 - the beginning of the week of the regular season.  One would expect the NCAA to complete its work, to avoid complicating the first annual, B1G Te...

Missouri is set to join SEC East division with Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, South Carolina, Vanderbilt, and Kentucky. This makes no sense geographically but the move was made to protect historical rivalries already established within the SEC and to maintain competitive balance. Where have I heard...

Violating children is an atrocity. The fact this may have occurred so often and over such a long period of time at one of America's most revered academic and athletic institutions - Penn State - assures a long criminal investigation, congressional involvement and likely, the largest civil cas...

First posted by Brady, at Inside The Shoe What a game to select as my only trip to Columbus for football this season! I'm not claiming to be a genius as any Buckeye fan would've picked the Wisconsin game if put in the same situation but damn that was F'n awesome! That trip was eve...

First posted at Inside The Shoe, by Stephan What a game.  What a finish.  What an effort.  The Ohio State Buckeyes showed tremendous poise under pressure after surrendering a 12-point lead to Wisconsin with less than four minutes on the clock.  Braxton Miller did not pl...

Today, begins what will likely be, the most suspenseful November in Buckeye memory.  It's not the "gales of November" and a floundering Edmund Fitzgerald. Ill winds are blowing, however.  Maybe, another maritime analogy is more fitting. The Indianapolis comes to mi...

If you watched a television (or re-)broadcast of last night's classic, you were probably mindful that until the mind boggling, game definitive touchdown pass (and even then not without a bit of internal facial muscle tape delay), Braxton Miller showed approximately zero reactions conducive to...

First posted by Brady, at Inside The Shoe I really don’t think that our young coach has any shot of hanging on past this season despite the news he finally is coaching under a legit contract until the end of 2012. It’s true that Fickell was dropped into an impossible situation wit...
