[mtnester]

16. FANTASTIC fake by Troy Smith

a thing of beauty

[L A Woman]

15. GO BUCKS!!!

AWESOME!!!! I sort of hope it isn't even close, but Michigan is a good team and might well sort some things out in the locker room...

[johnnie]

18. Oh yeah, they will sort things out

I'll help them

[Wetzelbill]

17. woa, Ohio ST. is tough

man, they just took over. Michigan better settle down or they are going to get blown out. I'd say if they can maybe pick up a field goal and go into the half on a positive note, they might be able to get back into this thing. Right now they seem a little shell shocked. That's when things can get out of hand.

Big third and two....

Penalty flag.... :)

First, ok, we'll see how this goes now.

[mtnester]

19. Halftime 28-14 OSU.....O H

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

20. I O

[lizziegrace]

21. This is killing me

I'm so sick and just woke up. It's now halftime. I'm so glad the Bucks are ahead. :) Hope I can watch the rest of the game...

[johnnie]

22. Can these announcers shove their heads any further up Mich Asses?

Sheeezzzzz

[lizziegrace]

23. Is there any doubt that Brent Musburger prefers anyone

who's playing Ohio State??

I understand that they have certain teams they dislike, but does he have to be *so* obvious? :eyes:

[johnnie]

25. No shit

And that was pass interference if I ever seen it. They had him sandwiched before the ball was even thrown.

Oh, now Brent is bummed out..LOL. No momentum for Ohio State, that's all saved for Mich..LOL

[lizziegrace]

29. That's okay

We win without his "blessings". :eyes:

[lizziegrace]

31. "His feet gave away on the new sod"

Sheesh...

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

27. i noticed it when OSU played Iowa

They want an upset so they can hype it.
after all, it's always about the media.

[mtnester]

37. He has hated Ohio State for DECADES

[LadyoftheRabbits]

24. Touchdown OSU!!!

35-24!!! :bounce:

Edited for extra point. :D :P

[CaliforniaPeggy]

26. Go Bucks!

:bounce: :bounce:

[Blue-Jay]

28. Yeah, baby!

[lizziegrace]

30. Woohoo!!

[madinmaryland]

32. IT WAS AN INTERCEPTION!!!!

:grr:

[Wetzelbill]

33. under review

the most nerve wracking words in sports.

[lizziegrace]

No touchdown n/t

[johnnie]

34. Can't believe it went against Mich

[Wetzelbill]

36. looks like it delayed the inevitable

tough call though.

[MichiganVote]

35. Michigan scores for 30-35!/start of 4th

[madinmaryland]

38. Touchdown BUCKEYES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 42-31

:woohoo:

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

39. are there any Buckeye fans there?

they keep showing Michigan people.

[L A Woman]

40. sad Michigan people n/t

[mtnester]

41. That is going to be the GAME!

OHIO

[L A Woman]

42. shit...

this is so close....i am biting my nails!!!!

[L A Woman]

43. HIP HIP HOORAAAAYYYYY!!!

GO BUCKEYES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[11 Bravo]

44. Piss on the fire and call in the dogs. The hunt's over.

[Wetzelbill]

45. Tressel's ability to make big play calls looms large

If this game went into the half at 21-14, instead of 28-21, I think Michigan would have won. They came out and played a great second half, but in the end they never could overcome that last touchdown from the last minute or so of the first half. Tressel makes great calls and Ohio State scores off of those calls. It's uncanny.

[WCGreen]

47. You notice how Carr went balistic and Tressel stayed completly

under control at all times...

If the Center hadn't screwed up the snap twice, the game wouldn't have been this close...

[L A Woman]

49. Statistically, they are almost equal...

I thought Lloyd Carr made some questionable calls, to say the least. And other than that, it came down to a few penalties and turnovers.

I really think these are the best two teams in the country, and I watch a lot of college football. They SHOULD play for the national championship. But I doubt they will. :-(

Anyway, Go Bucks!

(I already have the countdown to the national championship on my myspace page!)

[Wetzelbill]

57. good I sent you an add request

I'll be the guy with the bull riding pic. :) "The Wrestling Machine"

[Blue-Jay]

46. Congrats to Michigan. You earned #2 tonight.

What a great game.

[cmd]

48. I'll second that!

What a game! Michigan definitely gave us a thriller.

[HughBeaumont]

50. I'm not bragging about this win.

OSU damn near gave me several heart (or should I say HART) attacks tonight. They're going to Arizona and I'm happy, but they nearly gave that game away with the LOUSY defense and mental mistakes. Thank GOD we have the best coach in college football and the best offense in college football, but in Arizona our defense needs to step the hell up because they just played piss-AWFUL tonight. Gave up too many yards, made too many mistakes (I'm looking at YOU, Jamario), missed SO many goddamned tackles. Games like that are just aggravating to watch.

Yes, I know it's Michigan; yes, I know they're the #2 team in the country playing on an emotional high, but the defense has stepped up all year against good teams, why the second-half collapse? We can only be thankful Michigan's defense was worse.

[mduffy31]

51. I have to go take a shower now

Being a Notre Dame fan, I will admit I wanted UscuM to win and Smith to have a bad game, so I feel dirty. Saying that I have to admit this was the best game I have seen since last year's ND v USC game. Of course after we finally beat USC next week we will meet tOSU in the NC game, and probably lose again because we have no defense. OSU is the real deal folks, and that pains me to say.

[madinmaryland]

52. I think you folks at ND are screwn!!!

Playing lightweights like army!!!

:hide:

[mduffy31]

53. They were an add on when the schedule went to 12 games

I mean they aren't Western Carolina or anything....

[bigwillq]

54. Yeah OSU!

:bounce:

[kwassa]

55. the Buckeye is a useless nut.

anyone knows that!

Good game though.

[madinmaryland]

56. BUCKEYES #1 Everyone else is screwn!!!!11!!! HUGH!!!!

[Giant Robot]

58. Well as much as I hate to say it

Congratulations.

I wanted to see my Wolverines blow OSU out of the water, but we couldn't pull it off this year. I am very curious to see what this does to the BCS standings.

The one thing I want to say to be a spoil sport is this: Remember you only won by 3 points, so keep the overbearing egos out there in check.

[madinmaryland]

59. Thanks..

I actually think OSU and Michigan are the top two teams in the country and would love to seem them play for the BCS Championship on Jan. 8th. Would be a hell of a rematch!

[Giant Robot]

62. I agree these were the two best

But I don't want to see a rematch. Two losses to OSU in one season would be too much for my lil ole heart to bear! I just really hope I don't see Michigan drop too far down in the standings for losing to a better team, and putting up a fight all the way. My hissyfit will come if they go below 5. Oh well...there's always next year.

[dajoki]

60. This talk about a rematch...

is bullshit!! Other than IAA, Division I has no playoff, so this game was as close to one as there is. Both teams new what was at stake going into the game. Loser out; Winner in. So there is no need for a rematch!!

[Giant Robot]

63. Settle down there

We lost you won. There a Michigan person said it. The BCS is a clusterfuck, granted, but if it happens, and I would rather it didn't for the record, it happens.

[dajoki]

64. I agree...

The BCS is a clusterfuck. You are very gracious and are to be commended!! I happen to be a Jim Tressel fan more than a Buckeye fan. My daughter was on the cross country and track teams at Youngstown State when Tressel was their coach and Atheletic Director. He is a true gentleman. They won the IAA national championship when she was there and coach Tressel sent me the tapes of the entire footbal season.

[Giant Robot]

65. Well good on Tressel then

I couldn't pick him out of a line up, but I can certainly see why you think he's a classy guy. Thank you for the commendation, but I probably would be a lot crankier if things played out worse than they did. I can at least hold my head up and say we went down fighting. I mean, who else can say they scored 39 points on OSU this year?

And it was a little emotional for me as well, with the passing of Bo on Friday. I went to school there at the end of his reign as coach. It really felt like the end of an era then, and I was really choked up to hear of his death. I was honored that OSU took time to pay tribute to him. I am sure there are OSU fans out there that are rejoicing or making cruel jokes; they should be ridiculed and ignored. OSU fans overall showed me that in spite of the 10 year war and a lot of animosity, on both sides, that when things are at their worst, you all will have our backs. Thank you.

[dajoki]

70. It was a sad day for...

the entire college football world(players, coaches and fans as well)when Bo passed. I can only imagine the impact it had on the University of Michigan, please accept my sincere condolences, it makes you realize that football is just a game. And shows you the lives he touched off the field as well as on it. I was also glad to see that Ohio State honored him as well. And like you said I'm sure there are some crude people making jokes, but they should be completely ignored and their little minds considered nothing but irrelevent. Good Luck!!

[dajoki]

61. Delete -- Double post n/t

[southlandshari]

66. Congrats to OSU!!

I was cheering for the Buckeyes - as best I could, anyway, since some nimrods decided to schedule the OSU-Michigan game at the same time as the Auburn-Alabama game!

x(


Glad to see the Lounge football threads are still alive and well! I'll try to be less scarce during bowl season this year!

:hi:

[lizziegrace]

67. Well Hell's Belles!!

:hi: from Buckeye country.

:)

[OzarkDem]

68. Congrats Ohio!!!

Though I'm not a native, I'm happy to see Ohio State win.

Our neighborhood is now full of Ohio state swag in every front yard.

Having been to one Ohio-Michigan game (during the early 1980's) when Ohio lost, I'm happy to see you win this time!!

PS Since OzarkDem boy is attending Mizzou, I still must root for the Tigers, though.

[L A Woman]

69. New BCS Standings out - Michigan still #2

but i doubt that will hold for the rest of the season...
