College Football Projected Bowl Results and Final Standings
whatifsports.com 8/26/2008 — The Buckeyes erase the SEC demons of the past two years as well as any doubt as to who should be the 2008 national champion as Ohio State remains the country's lone undefeated team after defeating Georgia 61% of the time in the BCS Championship Game and by an average score of 23-17.
The SEC is clearly superior
loserswithsocks.com 8/26/2008 — The BCS National Championship win by LSU over perennial cupcake Ohio State proves yet again that the Southeastern Conference is far superior to any other conference when it comes to football.
10 teams out of 12 bowl-eligible, 9 get bids, 7 wins. ...
Chris "Beanie" Wells Injured During Ohio State's 43-0 Win Over Youngstown State —
FanIQ Blog
As I'm sure you well know, one of the biggest college football games of the year happens next week when USC and Ohio State meet up in LA. Whoever wins that game looks like they'll have a clear path to the BCS National Championship.
For reasons I can't understand, Ohio State is favored to win the match-up. Or maybe I should say was favored to win it.
That's because today against ...

SPORTSbyBROOKS
Ohio State Heisman hopeful Chris “Beanie” Wells was carted off the field with a foot injury during the third quarter of the Buckeyes’ 43-0 win in their season opening game today with Youngstown State. With OSU near the goal line for yet another score, their star running back fumbled a hand off and fell to the ground holding his right foot.
The Buckeyes who were a ...

SPORTSbyBROOKS
When the #2 ranked Ohio State Buckeyes took the field to open up their season this afternoon with Youngstown State, their redshirt junior defensive tackle Doug Worthington was there with them. No not as an emotional leader on the sidelines in his sweatsuit, but with the Buckeyes on the field in uniform.
A little more than a month ago Worthington, 20, was caught driving his white ...

If you are looking for a great preview, the Dispatch has really stepped up the internet coverage. It is well worth the look. The only thing I’m disappointed in is the attention that Pryor is getting from OSU sites. I almost expect it from outside Columbus, but around here we should know that Pryor will [...]

Suggested Team Slogan If At Second You Don't Succeed, Try, Try Again
What we learned in 2007 Not bad for a down year. After losing Troy Smith, Ted Ginn Jr. and other talents, last year was supposed to be a down year at Ohio State, but they still found their way back to the BCS National Championship game. Partly because the Big Ten was down, and largely because other teams blew their ...

Earlier in the year we learned how Trojan faithful could be a little more like Pete Carroll . But what are the odds Carroll actually wears those shirts? Real fans want to dress just like their favorite coaches. Then want to be like them, and dress like them. Now Ohio State fans can pretend to be coach Jim Tressel so much easier now that the officially licensed Ohio State Sweater Vest T-Shirt ...

by GMoney , The Money Shot If you haven't been able to tell from my weekly posts, I hate the Ohio State University. Well, not so much the school, it's just that their fans are ungodly annoying. If you are ever feeling a little too full of yourself or looking to take on a group of ten frat boys by yourself, show up on campus before a home game wearing the colors of the day's opponents. Unless ...

Zombie Nation - Penn State football blog
I came across this picture today, showing Penn State's offense lined up against a Dan Marino-led Pittsburgh team in 1982, and it made me think. Everyone's so worried about losing to Ohio State--nothing suggests we will win--in Columbus, which would effectively end our National Championship hopes. Wrong. During the '82 regular season, Penn State was clobbered by Alabama 42-21 in Tuscaloosa. A ...

College Football by the Numbers
Three minutes into the first half, Matt Flynn fell on his own fumble at the LSU 6 yard line. Twelve minutes later, LSU’s Harry Coleman fell on a fumbled punt at the LSU 16. In a game in which LSU was outgained, 2 turnovers were the deciding factors, but Ohio State lost the ball to LSU, not LSU to Ohio State. If those fumbled balls had proven too slippery for Coleman and Flynn, we would have a ...

ESPN has a group of “experts” together to make their picks , and they range widely. There’s a common theme of teams in the BCS Title game: Oklahoma, UGA, Florida, USC, Ohio State, Georgia, and one brave soul picking Missouri, but some of the picks seem off. Two people say Ohio State will win it, and if there’s anything history’s taught us about Ohio State ...
