Enjoy this time
I know it's easy to get caught up in the season, "why haven't we thrown to the tight end more," "Why doesn't Troy run more", "Why's the field in such terrible shape" etc...
I sat through many seasons where I wondered if I'd ever see a National Title. I, along with many others, got extremely fortunate in 2002 and witnessed one of the most gritty teams of all time.
This year's team has been an absolute joy to watch. The team plays clean, plays hard, and plays as a single unit.
Being ranked #1 isn't a right, it's a privilege that very few teams and fans ever get to experience.
Just want people to sit back and appreciate all the good things this season has brought. Our players haven't embarrassed the university and have been pure class on and off of the field. When you see the players interviewed, they speak like the fine young men that they are; well-spoken, humble individuals.
We may win the National Title and we may not, who knows. No matter what happens it's been a great ride and I appreciate everything the players and coaches have done for The Ohio State University.
Oh yeah, kick the hell out of Michigan!!!
