As for DickRod, how 'bout losing to a much less talented USF team in '06? Losing to Louisville in '06? USF was decent this year, but he still should have won that.
JT, doesn't lose to less talented teams often. Illinois being a possible exception this year.

Do you really think Illinois had less talent? Juice looked like he ran your defense all over the field. I am not sure you can say that Illinois had significant drop off in talent. Honest, why did Wells get only 20 touches in that game?

You made yet another mind-boggling statement suggesting RRod teams do not have a history of choking at any level. When you were called on this nonsense, you tried to pull the 'one game outlier' card (even though there were TWO big choke jobs in ONE year) and shift focus to Tressel.
A few memorable choke jobs from RRod: Pitt 07, USF 07, USF 06, Louis 06 (somewhat), BC 04, Pitt 04, FSU 04 (all in a row. 05 is the exception to the rule in that 4 year span.

Thanks for looking them all up, I didn't want to waste the time on the guy and didn't have them committed to memory. He actually said DickRod has never choked at any level...I guess they didn't get the Backyard Brawl down on the Bayou this year.

I don't think so, I know so. Juice Williams took advantage of the scheme we were running (which was stop their RB Mendenhall, so we didn't have a "spy" on Williams). But back to talent level. Just because Illinois upset us doesn't mean they had superior talent. Do you really think that Kentucky and Arkansas has talent superior to LSU's?

Of course not. They needed six overtimes to beat them, remember?
