Spielman's mustache had 155 tackles, good for #2 in the conference On Saturday, months of planning and fundraising for the Stefanie Spielman Fund for Breast Cancer Research will finally come to frution with Eat Too, Brutus. From one tailgate, awareness (and some money). The power of a...

First post here at 11W.  This comes from my weekly look at the spreads that I post on my blog "Healthy Scratch".   Another 5-2 week (6th 5-win week in a row, 33-15-1 overall) but once again, not only do I not gain any traction on Bradley, but I fall further away. ...

This was written by Brady, first at Inside The Shoe It’s amazing what one win can do for your psyche in this kind of a season. Food has tasted better this week, it has seemed brighter outside (which is hard to do considering the amount of rain that has fallen over northern Ohio) and I h...

With all the recent talk about Urban Meyer's inevitability as the next head coach of our beloved Buckeyes, I have to ask you all:  what's the argument against re-hiring Jim Tressel?  It was Ramzy's moving article describing the unseen good that Jim Tressel did as head coach ...

Look out again! The South Eastern Conference maybe holding on to that BCS National Title. The way Alabama and LSU are destroying everyone on the schedule. If the # 1 and #2 team LSU and Alabama has anything to say about it. The BCS National Title will be in the South Eastern Conference one more y...

I was listening to some Mizzou fans this morning on the radio discussing their beat down of Iowa State on Saturday.  They were thrilled that the Tigers ran the ball 58 times on Saturday and that Henry Josey (averaging 10 yards per carry this season) finally carried the ball a season high 19 ...

Everyone is trashing Zook for going for it, it fits the meme that he's a terrible game coach. I actually think it's complicated and he could have been right. First off, the success rate on 4th and 2 is pretty good, around 60%. If they made it they have a much better chance of getting ...

Let's face it: The 2011 Ohio State football season is an exercise in humility. Between Nick Siciliano avoiding his true calling at Best Buy, Jim Bollman catching flying fish with his mouth and Joe Bauserman dropping scuds on innocent people, we might as well have a little fun. Laughter he...

Illinois 2011 Well, I’m back from a totally unwarranted one game suspension. I go to a friend’s beach house in the Outer Banks for a few days of golf and the NCAA calls that an improper benefit, so I miss the Nebraska game. Can’t anyone have fun?  Speaking of fun&hellip...

Being consistently good (not great) can open more doors because, while you may never dazzle, you still produce.  Of course, if you're consistent at something, and you're always terrible... then you're probably named Jim Bollman. Let's take a trip back to 2005 and look bac...

The curse of #2 is in full effect. Not only do we all have hallucinations of #2 arm punting and gliding his way past opposing defenders effortlessly, but so far this season the current #2's have been about as good as that other "Number Two". Rod Smith played himself out of a...

First posted by Brady at Inside The Shoe. I don’t know if I would feel better today about a complete blowout in Lincoln, NE or the way things really went down on Saturday night. On one hand, the offense looked fairly competent during the first half giving me hope for the future. On the ...

Buckeye Nation, I beg you to repent, ask for forgiveness, sacrifice a chicken or something. I know there are long suffering fan bases throughout this great nation.  I know there are lovable losers and plenty of folks who have had their collective hearts ripped out by their favorite sport...

As my username indicates, I am a Buckeye from the great state of Texas. I am currently a student here at OSU and I have to say I am proud to be a Buckeye. Yes, I know. We are all frustrated after what happened these last couple of weeks. I understand this. But, even after all this, I still ca...

Attention 11W faithful: I am in the process of compiling suggestions for a "visitors guide". This is something that will help anyone traveling to Columbus for a game by giving them a list of places to go, things to see, food, drink, etc. We all know that the main destination for 10/29 i...

Anyone know whats going on with Kenny Guiton?! I thought he looked good in spring ball last year but I havent really heard his name mentioned when people talk about our QB situation. I know there are MANY other problems with this team right now but he could be a spark for the offense. Benching BM...

First posted at Inside The Shoe, by Brady That's all folks. The curtain has dropped, the seas have un-parted and the fat lady has belted her last note. That last "game" against the Spartans effectively ended the 2011 campaign before it even had a chance to get going. The Miami g...
