THE Ohio State is THE Overrated University in all of sports
 
only they can blow teams out as they did the last two years, then finally get wake up calls in the national championship and prove to everyone they didn't belong there, even when they went undefeated (06), then last year losing to Illinois, and still making it to the championship, and getting stomped by LSU, then this year, already a weak showing against ohio and having that carry over to USC...give me a break, Ohio State is awful, they are an ok team, they will continue to be good in the big 10, but i could very easily see them losing to penn state, and whoever they play in there most likely BCS game, they will get beat again.

THE Ohio State?  Give me a break, they're not even that good, quit with "THE", and just go by "Ohio State", the buckeyes are overrated, slow, and a B+ squad, no better, maybe worse.

As disrespectfully as possible from the rest of the nation, the Buckeyes just need to sit this one out...seriously

lol give me a break, in your case the national championship being the best offense vs the best defense...USC would have to play themselves.  Florida has a good offense, but not the best in the country, and Ohio State with the best defense?  Lay off the hippie lettuce and put the homerism to rest.  If you didn't catch the USC/Ohio State game, I'd watch it, I know I'm going to watch it again, and again, and again, along with Florida/Ohio State, LSU/Ohio State, and Illinois/Ohio State...

I just want you Buckeye fans to realize...YOU'RE NOT THAT GOOD   aka   OHIO STATE IS OVERRATED, BY FAR THE MOST OVERRATED TEAM IN THE COUNTRY FOR THE LAST 3 YEARS

Better hope Troy doesn't get a punch in, because the Big 10 bullies might not come out of the locker room. OSU* is in a complete state of disarray. Got to go with Troy +21.5

Can you alert us to the change of style? I didn't notice anything different.

1, Take a lead and get absolutely blown out? Check
2. Commit a ton of penalties and look like one of the poorest coach teams in the country? Check
3. Gain next to no yards in the second half? Check
4. Turn the ball over? Check
5. Go back home and play another cupcake? Check
6. Awesome defense look completely awful? Check
7. Dumb coach play the statue at QB, even though he has no playmakers? Check
8. Quit at halftime? Check

I do agree with you on one thing though, they did show their talent on the Coliseum turf.

I think right now is the exact right time to get the best price on West Virginia to be in the title game!!!

Will OSU* be doing the cleaning here or will it be the Little 10 that gets the mop out against OSU*?

No I don't.  Every coach in the country would have started TB and used Pryor just like Tressel.  And now that it didn't work he has gone to Pryor full time.  Why don't you ask Charlie Weiss what it's like starting a true freshman in the biggest games of the season.

hmmmmm.  Well the mighty Trojans lost for the second time in two seasons to a team that was a 25 point underdog or more.  The Little 10 as you call has a chance a having 3 teams in the top 10 at the end of the week.  Yes this is such a weak conference isn't it?  And now that USC lost is Ohio State not right back in the driver seat for a national title shot if they run the table?  Their one blemish would be loosing to the then #1 team in the country on the road.  If they win out there isn't a one loss team that has a "better" loss than Ohio State.  And for those that want to complain about the schedule they played the #1 team in the country on the road, and still have to play Wisconsin on the road (who could be as high as 6 in the polls, and they also have to play Penn State which everyone loves.

Such a homer! Every single team in America will have a "better" loss than OSU*. Are you really this dumb? Really? You can't just go out and lay down for a team and then say that you played the #1 team in the country on the road. A "better" loss has to be somewhere in the area, ballpark, same country. OSU* looked like little kids out there. There is only one somewhat quality team in the conference. What win could possibly impress anyone outside of Cupcake Stadium by the Olentagy?
