Good, I hope Texas comes into the Shoe confident, why shouldn't they? They're going to walk with that confident Texas swagger in to Ohio, but they will limp home.
"Poof" That will be the sound of Vince Youngs heisman campaign after he gets picked off 3 times and held to under 50 yards of rushing.

What? A chip-on-their-shoulder post from Texas fans?
Well..
Now....
I've seen it all.
I agree with Mega that Young isn't a fraud. Still, and also in accord with Mega, Ohio State's LB's aren't likely to get punked out of their shoes like Michigan's LB's did.
Ohio State has faced multi-faceted QB's before, and has shut them down. I have little doubt Ohio State will be ready for Young.
Let em think what they want. Hell, I remember Texas Tech people yippin and yappin about how they'd walk all over OSU in 02. There has never been a shorter Heisman campaign than Kliff Kingsbury's. Those chippy Texas people can learn the same lesson. (OF course, they won't, they'll simply make excuses, but Ohio State - by beating them - can only do so much)

Richard McNutt's Heisman campaign lasted longer than Kliff Kingsbury's.

Can't remember who said it, but during a pre Rose Bowl sports show some talking TV head stated, "Mack Brown and LLLody Carr are the two most overrated coaches in the country."
Hmmmmm.

I'm going to this game, and I've been watching Texas a bit this year.
My analysis is that if you can stop Vince from running then the game is just about at hand. I think what Vince did to the Wolverines could be a big bonus for OSU. Because you better believe vince is just going to go crazy against their opener, and with him doing very well in his two past games leading up to the game with the buckeyes I think he'll be very surprised on how well our defense is with running QB's (well except for Tate). I can't wait for the game and I'm not about to make a prediction yet, but I will say that if OSU stops Vince they should have no problem. |
