I was thinking, during the Cowboy's offense intros w/ Eddie and Terry and realized, I don't think it's simply school pride that makes them say 'The', I think 'face time' has something to do with it. All of the Buckeye's who I've seen on MNF, (minus Springs

) have said 'The (insert pause) Ohio State University' and they clearly have more time on screen than the guys who simply say 'Kansas' or 'Purdue'.
BTW, great catch for Terry Glenn
And too bad Eddie didn't get the 'start' - first time in eight+ yrs in the league he didn't 'start' due to Dallas opening up w/ a spread offense.
