Article #2 from Dodd:
Missouri Tigers, NCAA Football, Ohio State Buckeyes, West Virginia Mountaineers - CBSSports.com
Quote:
Missouri is on the front page of the New York Times today.
Ohio State is not on the front page of the New York Times, unless Maurice Clarett was just named a GA.
Get it? Ohio State is old news. Real old news. Like finding the entire first season of Freaks and Geeks half off, old.
The same goes for both the football team and the sitcom: Who wants to see that again?
That's why Ohio State-West Virginia in the BCS title game does nothing for me. If the center holds, those two teams should not be playing for it all after the haze clears this weekend. That's assuming a lot considering this season, but for some reason or other Mike Freeman finds it a sexy matchup.
Sexy? Grab the makeup case, dude, we've got some work to do. What are we going to learn, that the Buckeyes still can't defend the spread? That the site of the championship game matches the description of their schedule?
The Big Easy.
Before you Luckeyes light up the message boards, three syllables for you: Ill-i-nois.
How many of you were booking New Orleans two weeks ago when the Ohio State University dropped to seventh in the BCS?
...
Ohio State? There's no story there. Sen. Jim Tressel (R-Columbus) and his well-rested squad spent 51 days last year getting ready for a game they lost by 27 points. This time they would have sat on their, uh, laurels for 15 days before being awarded a trip to New Orleans. That isn't game prep, it's water boarding.
The reigning mood would be irony. In a rebuilding year the Bucks somehow got back to the championship game after losing to an unranked team at home. Gee, what a heart-warming story. Someone please pass me a Kleenex.
You're not looking for the best game, Mike, you're looking for a brand name. Well, shucks, Nebraska isn't available so why not Ohio State? As I mentioned, the game is changing around us. Twelve teams in the top five have lost to unranked teams this season.

This one focuses more on Mizzou but he gets his jabs in at the Buckeyes...err, I mean Luckeyes.

If people would learn to ignore that idiot, he'd move on.

It feels like the media is expecting an Oklahoma win and trying to persuade voters to somehow keep us out of the game with all this media attention. I mean the Bucks are getting destroyed all over the place because they are "backing in" but last I checked, both of the teams currently in 1 and 2 "backed in"

How bout four syllables - South Flo-ri-da. Defense is kind of an important part of the game.
But you know what? Like I said before, if the media was on our nuts... I'd be concerned. So what? If we win, they look like idiots, and we get another crystal ball. |

A note in sportsline's Dodd's and Ends
Quote:
Don't assume that Ohio State automatically gets to the BCS title game if Missouri loses.
Jerry Palm is reporting that LSU, if it wins in the SEC championship game, could vault ahead of Ohio State. The computers, Palm says, would favor LSU at 11-2 over Ohio State at 11-1.
