"I think this is a problem of giving the coaches the power to issue a challenge. The guys in the booth will sometimes hesitate to institute an 'official review' because the coach has the ability to request one."
Excellent point!
And we are still subject to official's non-reviewable calls!

The Buckeyes face all of those losing teams this season.

Way to do your research, dipwad. 
Cal won 42-17 and Indiana beat Ball State 24-23. The point stands, but at least get the facts right.  |

Good time in Austin
Myself and 3 buddies went to Austin and had a great time. The Texas fans were great for the most part. Many were very helpful with directions and helping us with place to eat and drink.
We hit up Bevo Blvd. before the game and had a great time. Must of had a 100 Texas fans come up and talk to us and ask us if we were having a good time and enjoying Austin. Had about 10 people ask me about my buckeye necklace, most had no clue what a buckeye was. Had a lady offer me $10 for it but that was never going to happen.
The game was great. We sat up in the upper deck with a spattering of other Ohio State fans, most within high-5 distance. The Texas fans around us were great and many gave us congrats after the game was over. As a whole they seemed to be very impressed with the band, especially the double script Ohio. The Texas band was good also but I wasn't all that impressed with script Texas.
After the game was when it got a little bit ugly. We had about 5 different people wanna fight us on our way to the bar. 1 out of every 4 cars had some choice 4 letter words for us. We even had some various items thrown at us, water bottle, beer can, etc. I don't know if this is what the Texas fans experienced last year but we expected it. You can't let a few drunk idiots speak for a crowd of people. Overall we were treated great and had a great time. A big thanks is deserved to the Texas fans.

I believe LeBron is a major sponsor for the Ted Ginn Sr. bus tour. If LeBron is helping inner-city kids get scholorships while keeping the Glenville to C-Bus pipeline flowing strong, he can have sideline passes to OSU games for life as far as I'm concerned.
