Would you rather.....
hypothetically, would you rather see the buckeyes get to play USC or Texas if the opportunity arises at the end of the season.

USC every day of the week. Texas is not overrated. USC is. USC is an incredible team, but I'd like to see how they'd hold up during a Big 10 or SEC schedule. They don't face a single tough D all year.

I'd like revenge for getting beat at the horseshoe.
Realistically, USC stands a tougher slate than Texas for the remainder of the year. Like OSU vs the rest of the teams on their schedule, but not to the extent that Texas is vs their opponents- they're just more physical and deep than their opponents could even hope to be.
I don't know how true it is because I never saw Young's backup play, but I think having him go down to injury would be the arrow through the achilles for the Horns- not that anybody on the rest of their schedule could beat them anyway.

I don't care who we would play in the Rose Bowl. Doesn't matter to me if it's USC, Texas, Va. Tech, or a surprise NC participant like Cal or Bama.
Any time we have a shot at the NC, we should be thrilled with it. The opportunities are rare.

Texas. I think we would take them this time. Also, it would really give a guage as to how Tressel's team improves over the season by playing the same tough team twice.

I see you didn't say in the Rose Bowl, well if Texas is in the Rose Bowl then i say texas. But if its USC then i say USC. If neither are in it then i i don't want us facing neither of them. Hell if North Texas makes the Rose Bowl then i want us to face North Texas!

i would love to see USC's so called best offense ever go against our defense. i think once they got shut down than all the talk about their great offense would be stopped
