How much do 105,000 scarlet ponchos cost? Call up Steinbrenner. He's got nothing to do in October...

Brent asked Herbstreit on Saturday night if he had checked with Mrs. Herbstreit if he could stay with them Saturday night. It was sort of funny the way it came across. I am sure Brent will have some good bar results.

The White Stripes are awesome... stupid PSU fans doing it all the time at their games are not

[BuckeyeNation27]

rain during an OSU-PSU game? unheard of.

Have we had a single drop of precipitation thus far this season... before the guaranteed rain this weekend?

You forgot to add your own ending to it. Then it could be one of your many awesomest traditions.

No. Not at home. Looked like it was going to rain for the Minny game, but it cleared up right before kickoff.

Pfffft. What better form of solidarity could the fans show the players than to show up dressed identically droning on like Gregorian monks on E? Seriously, this idea is a big-time winner. I know BN27 is with me on this.

I detect a hint of sarcasm.

Wait. So you're telling me we're not going to group chant to the rhythm of Zombie Nation over the PA?

Crap.

Not that I know of, but I'm not 100% sure.

I think it's pretty much been perfect in every game.

thanks... holding true to PSU-OSU stereotypes isn't a bad omen, though

No sarcasm at all. I think I've found some e-mail addresses for some coaches and players. I'm going to see if I can get them to join in the chant. How awesome would THAT be? JT and the players leading the chant. That would be too kewl.

The news story from the OSU Athletics website regarding the "Scarlet Fever" theme:

Football: ?Scarlet Fever? Fan Theme Set for Tilt with Penn State Saturday - The Ohio State Buckeyes Official Athletics Site - OhioStateBuckeyes.com

COLUMBUS, Ohio ? ?Scarlet Fever? will set in at Ohio Stadium Saturday when No. 10/10 Ohio State welcomes No. 3/3 and undefeated Penn State to Columbus for a pivotal Big Ten football matchup at 8 p.m. All Buckeye fans attending the game are encouraged to wear scarlet for the primetime national television broadcast on ABC.

...

Scarlet rally towels, courtesy of Nationwide Insurance, will be distributed to the first 80,000 fans.

... also of note:

? ESPN?s College Game Day television program will broadcast live at 10 a.m. outside St. John Arena. Big Ten Network?s Game Day show also will be aired live on campus. BTN?s Friday Night Tailgate show will air from St. John Friday evening.
? The Ohio State men?s basketball team will scrimmage from 4-5 p.m. Saturday at Value City Arena. The event is free and open to the public. Fans will be able sit anywhere in the lower bowl. The seating area will open at 3:30 p.m.
? The Ohio State University Marching Band will hold its skull session at 6 p.m. in St. John Arena.

Most of that is already known, but seeing it all listed together makes me realize how much fun Saturday should be.


The way I see it, may as well go wear scarlet. I don't think the idea of these things is to intimidate the players, as much as get more of the fans into it. (Besides, its not like if you're going to the game you don't have something scarlet to wear.)

...either way, the Shoe will be rockin Saturday night. I for one, can't wait. This week just can't go by fast enough.

Good thing we don't depend largely on our passing game. Gotta protect the ball and hang onto the slippery thing. Also cover up loose balls on defense.
