Who is the reporter asking this question? Anyone know?
The O-zone says Scoop and while I could see Scoop Jackson making these stupid comments I think the O-zone was just referencing a general reporter looking for a scoop.

what does anybody say if you are the person on a florida team being told ron lewis said "he called the 90s bulls teams great and then he called you guys just good.......what is your response to that?"
this would be mine.  "and......???"

It did make me think of kentucky for donovan, but that may be accurate as well.

I just noticed they put your graphic on the front page of the OSU Scout site. Well done.

He obviously was, but a lot of OSU fans live for moments like this, when they think their team is being disrespected. So, don't spoil their fun.

not in their minds. since ron lewis thinks the bulls were greater than the current day gators i guess thats an obvious insult and that ohio state is not impressed at all. fact being is if we saw the gators as great as the bulls of the past then we would actually be OVERLY impressed.

I don't think that this is anything at the end of the day. Lewis didn't say they were crap and he didn't disrespect them and Florida know that.
But the real point is this: who cares? Neither team will play harder or gain some motivational advantage. In fact, I am rather pleased that Ohio State aren't saying, "uh-oh, they whooped us, let's hope we can keep this from being embarrassing."
Who cares? Let's just see what happens tonight.
One more thing. I think we have a good chance to win it all, but if we are getting beat, let's keep the negative viewpoints out of the game thread. Florida is a tough team and we will need a lot of luck tonight to win. Ohio State is a tough team and Florida will need a lot of luck to win. Players on neither team are perfect and there is no reason to disrespect ours. This is the best finish we've had in more than a generation already.
Let's be proud of our Buckeyes and ignore anyone who says otherwise.
