Finally....I've been waiting for this one. I'd love to see some of those idiots talk about those kids in front of the parents....I can't imagine reading a forum where my child was being shredded by "fans"

Not only is your analysis lame, but your math skills are severely challenged. Not to mention your ability to read a calendar.
The last I checked, the standard calendar used in the Western world proscribes 12 months in a year. This implies that a student who starts practice with the Buckeyes in August of 2002 will have compiled 25 full months in the program through September of 2004. My guess is that if you divide 25 months by 12 months per year you will arrive at a figure that is a bit short of the whole number 3.
Further, you have obviously not played football. Otherwise you would understand the difference between playing in a game versus practice.
Examine the 2004 OSU media guide. They breakdown the expirience for all of the Buckeye opponents based upon STARTING not PRACTICING time. There is no data collection resource that tracks expirienced practice players. The Big Ten and the NCAA have not determined that it is important to keep records of practice time for the purpose of determining expirience. Not to mention Varsity letters.
If you desire any additional insight, dig into the rosters of our opponents and discover the number of the returning starters who are also seniors. If you think that the senior factor doesn't matter with starters then...well, I have no hope for you.
If you have the time to actually research your opinions before you sit down at the keyboard to practice a little bomb throwing, you will discover that the premise of your post is dead wrong.
You could have taken a less moronic position by stating that "Well, yes they are a young team, but that is no excuse." Then you could argue your misguided opinion on the merits, slim as they may be.
But it galls me to no end the amount of unresearched drivel that flows from the mouths (and keyboards) on the site.
Please come back with something intelligent. It would be appreciated.
GO BUCKS!

Your analysis of the incoming talent level of Buck recruits- how did you say it?- that they couldn't start for the leading high schools in CA? Hmmm.
Let me guess- the 14 losers who were drafted off of the Buck's squad from last year were all molded into NFL calibre players by....what? Good nutrition? Lack of sunshine? Four years of mediocre academics?
The IQ level of this board is dropping like a rock.
