Ohio State at Texas

before pgardn made fun of Bama's fight song, I didn't care who won this game
actually I'd prefer OSU because the big12 is weak, and Texas could run the table again in that conference, while I see Ohio getting beat somewhere in the always tough big 10
Young was the difference in last year's game
perhaps Troy Smith will be the difference in this year's
let me commend both schools for scheduling this game
the NCAA allowed a 12th in-season game this year
and most major programs just added another cupcake

Damn it Scavs I Love it.

Normanculture. The Norman's had an interesting culture. Nomenclature. I think thats the spelling... Meaning name.
He peed on my f ckn rug.
Thats right dude... He peed on your fc k in rug.

Ok here is the skinny. Ohio State really thought they would blow Texas out last year. They were not entirely ready. Tressel is normally a very good coach, but he missed this one last year. USC then pulled an Ohio State for the National championship. When Nebraska had won all their National Championships, Texas did the same thing to them upon the formation of the Big 12. Then they gave Nebraska their first loss in Nebraska in God knows how many years... Just like OSU had happen with their nonconf. winning streak, destroyed by TExas. Texas does have trouble in big games when opponents consider them WORTHY (Oklahoma). But Texas is well know for biting teams in the rear that underestimate them. And losing to teams who are good and take them seriously. Enough history.

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.
The key will be Texas' ability to move the ball. They will attempt to ram the ball down Ohio State's throat. Texas may have the BEST offensive run blocking line in the nation. The freshman QB will be given mostly short routes, easy throws. So will Ohio State prevent Texas from time consuming drives? I think they can because Tressel knows how to build a game plan. Ohio State should be able to move the ball on Texas. TExas D is very fast, but not terribly tough based on the first game. I am pretty sure OSU can move the ball, it will open up their outstanding QB (no way he is Vince YOung though) and the biggest threat, Ted Ginn. Tough game. If I was getting points, and OSU, I would take them if I had to. But I cannot allow myself to do that. And my brother would never bet against them. (I dont gamble on team sports, so I give him my picks. There will be much better games to look at. This is a leave alone. Im lookin em over right now)

Coach.
Your team has a fight song extolling the virtue of drowning flying insects.

Your team has an elephant mascot, yet claims to be an algal bloom (red tide) that kills millions of redfish along the Texas coast.

How IN GOD'S NAME am I supposed to like a team like that? Help me understand this mindless slaughter, and maybe I will side with Alabama. I know you care deeply.

If you guys remember last years game, OSU was a completely different team with Smith was QBing. I expect OSU to do some serious damage on Saturday

LOL...damn, I didn't know about all that
perhaps I'll have to switch allegiances
Cattle Call!
of course Gary Bussy claims cattle passing gas
is destroying the ozone layer

I tell you what I do not like about Texas. Matthew Mckonahay(sp?), who I dont think ever went to the school, gets to be on the sidelines. Last week some other nonalumnist-big celeb was on the sidelines. We have turned into USC. Showtime.

You think they ever ask the long suffering pgardn to be on the sideline? You think they ever call me up and say, hey, you went to the school for 6.5 years here, you did a lot of good work here, why dont you come watch a game?

Nope they never ask me. Not once. Check that. When I was about 10 years old, I got to be on the sidelines of the Arkansas-Texas game in Austin. Why? Because my dad gave big bucks to the school way back. But my Dad is not around, and I will be damned if I give money to an athletic program that is rolling in dollars. Ya think ole Mack gives me a call, says pgardn, why dont you come up and watch a game with me?

And everbody and their mother wears UT shirts down here now. Where were they when the suffering was taking place? They did not suffer with the team. Its like amateur night every night. Give me a long suffering, non boasting fan anyday. The heart of the school by GOD.

Cont rant:

I even called the Texas Women's soccer coach and told him about a girl who played for the High School I taught at that was unrecruited for soccer (did not play club soccer) but was one of the best players I had ever seen. And he blew me off. Then I get a call saying that he HAD seen film of her in the State semifinals, why did she not play club ball? has she signed with anybody? We very badly want to sign her, what is her name again?

Well she already signed with Hawaii in Volleyball because you guys dont frikin listen. This kid was a better athlete, faster than anyone on their soccer team, I told him that. Well good for them. They lost a good player.

pgardn,

Matthew McC studied film direction at the University of Texas (at Austin) and was a member of Delta Tau Delta Fraternity, graduating in 1993. Not sure how his presence though would invigorate a team, or help in recruiting. Now the other night the 'Canes had D-Wade on their sidelines, current reining Finals MVP, but it wasn't enough to overcome the tenatios FSU D. Ok, I'll cheer for UT but please tell me you are voting for Kinky Friedman for Governor.

[Pointg5]

I hope OSU gets crushed, I give Brown credit for suspending those guys, if it was Sweater Vest Man, they would be playing along with the other criminals at Ohio State. If we can only get Notre Dame to lose and Ohio State to lose in the same weekend, but that's probably too much to ask...

OH a frat boy. So I had to be a frat boy to get on the sideline...the Bastages.

Hookem Kinky.

Tough game. Freshman QB. The more I think about that, the more I dont like it.
