Unfortunately I am stuck in the 2nd best place to be for the game...The 'Bus Though I am still very much contemplating making the 909 mile trip down to cheer on the Bucks in Nawlins. Can't wait for the game. I have slept with my scarlet #7 jersey under my pillow for the last week. Tomorrow, I will awake to the fight song played as loudly as possible and don the wrinkled, drool covered jersey until I can't stand the smell anymore. (Days, weeks...maybe years.) I will crack my first gameday brew, grill up some wings and fight back the pregame butterflies and choke back the tears of pride in the agonizing anticipation of the next greatest 3 hours of my life. All of this on a Monday! God is good!
Since the University isn't cancelling classes for the second year in a row for the game, there is a slight...very slight chance I will attend one class this week...doubtful. However, in roughly 27 hours, I will be at least ten beers deep and steadily increasing my rate of intake with the anxiety that will no doubt be controlling me by that point. Nothing will exist outside of the confines of my own head and no words will be spoken. Only hope beyond hope that the Buckeyes will be crowned National Champions once again. It is my day. It is every Buckeye's day...GO BUCKS!!!!
