The Game of the Century

[04monteintimidator]

will any of you guys be watching OSU vs Michigan tomorrow? #1 vs #2... first time in the rivalry's history that the two have faced each other under these conditions

its literally going to be one of the greatest football games ever played

you guys might even see me on ESPN Gameday if you watch the pre-game coverage starting at 2:30... ill be wearing a white number 25 jersey and holding a sign that says "Chad Henne for 2nd String"

watch Troy Smith, Ted Ginn, Anthony Gonzalez, Antonio Pittman and James Laurinitis take on Chad Henne, Mario Manningham and Mike Hart for the right to go to Glendale for the BCS title game

if you dont understand how big this game is then check this out... the LOSER goes to the Rose Bowl

GO BUCKS!

Not cramming in on the Rutgers bandwagon?

I worked at their Homecoming game when they went -IIRC- 6-0 and my wife is a RU alumni, so I have to pull for the SKs. The game last week against Louisville was fantastic.

[04monteintimidator]

yeah the Louisville vs Rutgers game was a real good game... but i go to OSU... so why watch the RU game when the greatest game in the history of college football is being played in my backyard?

Monte, monte, monte....

Normally I would give you pass since you have rockin abs....but Im afraid your acorns have a huge uphill battle. The ghost of Bo will see to it.

(Oh if you are on TV.....take off your shirt )

Forget about Ohio vs. Michigan, NDSU Bison vs. the SDSU Jackrabbits is where is it at. For the conference championship and keeping the Dakota Marker trophy here in Fargo.

[Croc]

Sorry, I'll be watching Cal and USC...but I'll be pissed if OSU goes down. I want USC to play them for the BCS title (isn't it hilarious we're back at #3?)

[Northstar]

I'm going with MICHIGAN.

[Cory Wolfe]

Um... NASCAR race!!! Woo!!!

[Satty]

Michigan, no question. And I'm starting to get on the Rutgers bandwagon, after what they did to Louisville.

[ichbinjohnk]

I'll be here at the OSU campus, enjoying everything. Now way should OSU lose. If they do, they've only beaten themselves.

...and even if the Buckeyes choke, Ann Arbor is still a whore.

[04monteintimidator]

Croc... Cal and USC is on after THE game... so you can watch both!

dont expect USC to win tho... Cal should take it, and then when USC beats Notre Dame... it sets up one of two games

if Rutgers can pull out a stunner and beat WVU (i think they will) it could be OSU vs RU for the national title

BUT we cant rule out soon to be SEC champs... Arkansas...i think OSU vs. Arkansas would make a sick title game

Michigan and USC can have fun in the Rose Bowl where they belong

[Robert Hall]

I'm watching..go blue!

[Chris_Doane]

Man whoever wins, that field is certainly $h! right now. The grass is giving out under everyone's feet.

Edit: Wow, terrible play call by Mich there on 3 and 1 with 1:31 left in the 3Q.

Geez another bad Mich play call to go for 1 instead of 2 after the TD at the start of the 4Q.

Well that late hit personal foul just lost the game for Mich.

O-H

Common, Monte...

[04monteintimidator]

I-O

GLENDALE BABY!!! 12-0

We dont give a damn for the whole state of michigan

the whole state of michigan

the whole state of michigan

no we dont give a damn for the whole state of michigan

cause we're from O-HI-O

[Chris_Doane]

Shouldnt you be celebrating by having sex with Paul Hamm?

So here is a thought (sure to get Croc's panties in a bunch ).....rematch in the title game? Clearly they are the 2 best teams.

Edited November 19, 2006 by CD/BP

[Croc]

It's certainly possible. I mean it all comes down to the BCS score. The next weeks will decide everything. It all depends on how USC handles Cal today, ND next week, and finally UCLA. Depending on how the games go, and the score spread, we could end up #2. Or stay #3. Same with Michigan. I'm gonna wait until tomorrow night before I analyze this. But all I know is if USC somehow gets to the BCS title game, USC will have to start our semester 2 days late...which would rock.

[Chris_Doane]

Rutgers may turn out to be a non-factor. They are down 2 touchdowns to Cincy at the half and are being totally outplayed.

The Cal/USC game is just odd so far.....3 to 2? Are we playing hockey?

...ok now we're playing baseball....9 to 6.

Edited November 19, 2006 by CD/BP

[Croc]

Yea it's a pretty lame game.

BTW for the record I'm not a fan of people with two first names...especially not now.

[Chris_Doane]

Well Rutgers is done. Cincy is dominating them in every way. 27-3 end of 3Q.

[04monteintimidator]

yup... the RU miracle is over...

OSU vs Arkansas anyone?

[ichbinjohnk]

There's really no chance of a OSU-Notre Dame (it's quite fun to make Brady Quinn look like the fecal mass that he is) match like last year, so I'm hoping for USC.

[Croc]

So we won...decently too.

I'm happy.

USC v. OSU BSC title game I'm calling it now.

[Chris_Doane]

Hmm, methinks the Irish are going to give you a run for your money next week...

[Croc]

I still think we will win. It WILL be a nailbiter for sure though...

[capriceman]

bleh...

there was bias in the reffing though!! even the OSU fans at the bar were argeeing to that.

It still was a close game though you have to admit that.

but lets go purdue and ND!!!!!

[Chris_Doane]

So Mich reatained their #2 spot in the BSC ranking.

Looks like it'll all come down to the USC/Notre Dame game next week.
