And Duane is the resident vBulletin Expert over there... It's a little bit comical. The first problem is that, sorry to say, any emails with "nuts" tends to get filtered to one's junk mail box. That's where I found my email. The second problem is that probably no one on that staff knows...

Tressel has always had a thick playbook... However, throughout the Tressel regime on gameday--until this year--it's been a 2-1 run/pass ratio consistently, with the use of the spread formations, in large part, to create running lanes for the QB. However, that offense became potent the latter...

the big play by a Buckeye was by Will Allen monster hit on Steve Smith going over the middle... Btw, Ken Lucas was mostly on Galloway, not Gamble.

That's not what I'm saying... Cooper had to rebuild the program, Tressel did not. The cupboard was bare when Coop took the reigns and it took him about 4 years of quality recruiting to rebuild the program to the same talent level as Michigan. If Coop had won those 3 games I mentioned, I'm...

A NC or two would have cast that record in a better light... Of course, that also implies 4-8-1 rather than 2-10-1. Considering the first 4 years or so during the Cooper era, OSU was not at the same talent level as Michigan, I believe Buckeye Nation could have tolerated 4-8-1 with a National...

OSU runs a zone blocking scheme... It's not a man, drive blocking scheme. It's more of a lateral, create seams or gaps in the defense and requires a RB with good vision to find the gap and then make the quick cut. In 2002, when healthy, Clarett excelled in this scheme. But Ross and Hall never...

I wouldn't say that was quite accurate about Coop... OSU under Coop won plenty of big games, including beating 2 AP Top 5 nonconference opponents on the road. True, 95,96 against Michigan and 98 against MSU were the 3 games that turned what would have otherwise been an excellent legacy...

Not playing the CB position full-time in college because he's also an elite player on offense doesn't diminish his status as an NFL prospect at the CB position, given his measurables. The USA Today Defensive Player of the Year, with his hips and his speed and decent size (6'0") is about as an...

Zemek's analysis is nonsense... Early June talk about overrated teams is nonsense anyway. Predicting OSU may fall short of the Rose Bowl is hardly worth spamming his Hotmail account, and is hardly an unjustified assumption. His reasoning, however, is terrible. Quoting Zemek: "The very...

LOL...more validity than i can comprehend??? Your kidding, right???? Well, Okay, I do have a BS Degree in Mathematics. And I can read. Here's what that site said about "Participant Invitation:" <i>Coach Ratings™ invites current and former college football, college basketball and college...

Unscientific, miniscule sample sizes, questionable methodology... I've seen these "ratings" pop up on a number of message boards, and they are simply not even close to being statistically valid. Volunteer sampling from any population set is almost always biased, and in this case, the fact...

Well, Dallas Morning News had some pretty fair articles before that game... Bill Campbell, a sports writer for DMN at the time who covered the OSU-Michigan game and the Fiesta Bowl, even wrote a pretty nice, long piece on Woody Hayes, which largely resulted from a discussion with a former OSU...
