The ACC is probably 4th among bcs conferences... and they aren't in the upper tier of that conference.

It would never happen- OSU is too premier of a program. That said, I wouldn't mind having a Saturday where I can get stuff done instead of the mandatory Buckeye watching (having enjoyed it two days earlier).

Isn't mostly ACC/ Big East? Besides that fact I feel it's usually second tier teams capitalizing on the national exposure and gameday hoopla of having ESPN.

I would not like this one bit. I wouldn't have anything to look forward to on Saturdays. I hope it never happens! It's a tradition to play on Saturdays!

Anyway, I read if you're related to somebody who has played at Ohio State, they will put you on their practice squad. But that doesn't mean you'll dress for the games though. When I go to Ohio State to major in Sports Journalism, this is what I am going to do. I won't stop there, because I will try to dress and make the team.

Ohio State dominates ratings and edges out virtually any program regardless of competition. Ohio State only plays football on Saturday, period.

Exactly. Teams play on Thursday and Friday to avoid playing at the same time as Ohio State. When you're a giant, you don't have to move.

Ohio State versus M*ch*g*n trumps everything. It trumps your record. It trumps whether it's dangerous or you don't have a chance or any of those kinds of things. It trumps all things because it's the Ohio State-M*ch*g*n game. And I would like to think our guys understand that, but there's only one demonstration of understanding that and that's at 12:00 noon on Saturday.
