Ohio State at Texas

Great game plan by Tressel. Ball control on the pass. OSU got ahead. Texas could not run the ball as much as they wanted. Perfectly played by Tressel. He took away every advantage that Texas might have had. By getting ahead and using Troy Smith in all sorts of long and short passes. Texas thought he was gonna take off and run some, Tressel completely fooled them by holding him back in the pocket and taking advantage of that strong arm. Definitely a big step above Mack Brown (who I like a lot, the best recruiter in the country).

Ohio State will most likely not be foolish enough to take Texas lightly this time. So I must think they will have a good game plan, and will be ready. The game is being played in the evening, which is a big plus for Ohio State, no intense heat. Texas just suspended the starting cornerback who was to cover Ginn. NOt good for Texas.


Ohio State can easily lose in the Big 10 however. They will not face a team with a freshman QB every game. They played a good game, but are definitely beatable. So you guys that hate this team, they can be beat.

Texas. Long season ahead. If they fall behind late in any game or by more than a couple of TD's, its trouble. They really will have to expand what they will let McCoy do. Hope his learning curve is steep or we will get beat by Texas Tech, Oklahoma, and ATM. The Big 12 is up for grabs because Texas is just not that good right now.
Time.

mwin that kid was utterly stupid. He apparently got in a car with an ex-Texas player that had weed and guns. They said the police have dropped the charges as the ex-player has said the items where his. But cmon. The guy gets into the car... he had to know enough about his friend. Appears the incident is softer than it first seemed. But...

Im very happy Brown suspended him. And I hope it is for a number of games.

I cant stand the team full o thugs thing. Miami and FSU are my least favorite teams for these reasons. I did not know Ohio State had the same type of problems. The Florida teams seem to have these problems on a consistent basis. I know Clarrett and some others... Texas had Ricky (I am mentally instable) Williams. You cannot control what every 19 year old is gonna do. But when it happens over and over. I did not know this kind of thing was commonplace with Ohio State.

ANd it is another reason I am more fond of teams like ND and Penn ST (even though I should not be) as they seem to try and stay away from the thugs. These teams have also had bad eggs. But overall, they seem to get the classier athletes.

by the way, who on ohio state is a thug anyways? clarett became a thug after ohio state. during ohio state he was just a kid with bad advise..... ohio state shows class with the best of them

TBs sensational picks of the day include....

indiana -3 over ballstate
northern ill -14 over ohio
nd -7 over penn state(defense is very good... and that offense will bouce back at home)
osu over texas (its going to be close, but im going with a senior qb versus a true freshman... plus, whose going to stop ginn????)




TB went 2-2. TB needs to stick with the big games it appears. And if TB puts up a winning week, TB needs to make sure he bets in the first person.

Told you exactly what would happen.

Best team won, no doubt.

Texas was out-coached and out-played.

24-7 sums it up.

Lot of late action came in on Texas.
I bet the game three times at +2.5 and +118, +2.5 and +121 finally +3 and
+132
Sweet

Now if I can get the Bengals to knock off KC..........

DearTB:

I am not a UC fan. You have me confused with another poster. I am a UT fan as in TEXAS. Basketball, baseball, football. I went to school there. I am not from Ohio and was questioning if Tressel has a history of recruiting thugs. I did not know he did this as was posed by another poster. I think he is a damn good coach.
