Buckeye Recap



Wow. First of all the World's largest drum did not come to the game. SO fans were treated to a full pre game show, complete with Script Ohio, and a great half time show. All Universe basketball player Katie Smith was honored and had her gold medal with her also.

This was like the 02-03 grind it out Buckeye wins, complete with punt and play defense and strong special teams. I have never been to a game with so many 50+ field goal attempts in it. The play of the game was Jenkins block of the punt which was recovered for Ohio State's only touchdown. Beanie rushed for 98 yards and Pryor was a very efficient, but boring, 10 for 14. Purdue was never really a threat and showed next to nothing in the way of big play, quick strike capability at any time in the game. A win is a win is a win and the Bucks win 16-3 and should move up a notch in the polls. Don't expect to see the Top Eight range until they beat Penn State in two weeks.

Some good things that happened yesterday:
#1 Oklahoma getting beat by #5 Texas
#13 Vanderbilt losing to Mississippi
#20 Auburn losing to Arkansas

Michigan losing to Toledo
Notre Dame losing, getting screwed really, at North Carolina


Next up Michigan State and Mr. Ringer with his 150 yards per game.
