  • By Jason - December 19th, 2008

Just a gentle reminder that bowl season kicks off tomorrow and if you haven’t already done so, get your picks in for the 11W Bowl Challenge (there are still a few empty entries). Winner gets their choice of a t-shirt (or dogware should you choose) from the 11W Shop. The relevant bits:

Of Greatness and Missed Opportunities

  • By Joe - December 18th, 2008

As nervous as Ohio State fans should rightly be about facing Texas in Glendale, we all have to look at the upside: two traditional powers will meet in a high-paying, high-profile bowl. This is a lot better than going to the Liberty Bowl to face some WAC champion, or – God knows – [...]

Six for the Show

  • By Jason - December 17th, 2008

Just one more?

Tressel had his first Fiesta Bowl press conference yesterday and though most of his responses were run-of-the-mill, there were a few nuggets tucked in there.

First, Nathan Williams will likely be making the trip to Arizona, despite his recent trouble with the law. Whether he plays or not is still up in the [...]

Buckeye NFLer of the Week: 15

  • By Corey - December 16th, 2008

Will there ever be another two-way player?

The former Buckeye defenders rose up this weekend around the NFL, as the playoffs draw nearer and the weather becomes colder.

It was an overall lackluster performance by the wideouts this week, as Micheal Jenkins’ 3 catches for 55 yards led the group, in Atlanta’s 13-10 overtime win over [...]

Know the Enemy: Texas Newspapers & Blogs

  • By Jason - December 15th, 2008

With finals over, the team is getting back after it and we are around here as well. Part of being any true fan is boning up on enemy literature and there is no shortage of it in Longhorn territory. While the Austin American-Statesman dominates the newspaper scene, there are a handful of excellent [...]

Big Recruiting Weekend Caps Exams Week

  • By Jason - December 15th, 2008

Marcus Hall would look great in the Scarlet and Gray

While the players were enjoying a few days off for finals, the staff was still chugging, welcoming three top recruits to town this weekend.

Tackle Marcus Hall of Glenville, receiver Marlon Brown of Memphis and quarterback Tajh Boyd of Hampton, Virginia were all in Columbus to visit [...]

Still the One

  • By Jason - December 13th, 2008

Archie juked another one.

After winning the Heisman as a sophomore last season, Tebow was in pretty good position to become only the 2nd two-time winner of the award, but it was another sophomore — this time Oklahoma’s Bradford — that would preserve Griffin’s unique status in the stiff-arm trophy-winning fraternity.

For the third time in the [...]

Nathan Williams Has Sticky Fingers - Allegedly

  • By Chris - December 11th, 2008

According to the published reports, freshman defensive end Nathan Williams was arrested yesterday for allegedly swiping three shirts valued at $80 from a Macy’s in Beavercreek. (HT: Matt & J.B.)

At least from the cost they don’t appear to be any hideous Ed Hardy’s. (Probably dating myself with that comment but I couldn’t wear one of [...]

‘07 Aside, the Desert Has Been Kind to Ohio State

  • By Joe - December 10th, 2008

The football gods have spoken, and behold: They have appointed unto Ohio State a date in the desert with a team angry about not having been invited to the national title game, and sporting a Heisman Trophy-caliber quarterback. Goody, goody.

Fiesta: The Party Bowl

The Longhorns might be upset about not being invited to the [...]
