This isn't quite bulletin board material but it can be taken as a slight if you want. Kirk Herbstreit said he'd prefer Mizzou vs. WVU in the title game and that if it was tOSU-WVU it would be interesting to see the "power" of tOSU vs. the "speed" of WVU. Dance puppet, dance.

Well, look at the bright side.. southern speed is just a state away now. :slappy:

In unrelated news, the 2002 Hurricane's speed has now reached Plano Texas. Should be in Tempe in just a while longer.

I've been one of Herbie's defenders, but when he perpetuates the myth that Ohio State doesn't have speed, he does little to seperate himself from the other idiots out there.

Last time I checked, the NFL drafts for speed, not slow, plodding stiffs. Ohio State has more players drafted than either of those two combined twice over.

Who are West Virginia's NFL guys? Yeah, Pac Man Jones and Chris Henry.

Enough. Is it not clear to you that we suck? We are slow, can't tackle, run bad routes, can't block... We're lucky just to be in Division 1. If the Big Ten wasn't so pathetic, we'd have to be in MAC. We have no tradition, are lucky to get anyone to come out to see our games, send no one to the NFL, have no Heisman winners, no All-Americans, our band sucks, and our coach is just a 1-AA coach.

We didn't deserve to be in any of the Fiesta Bowls in which we've recently played and should never have had the opportunity to play in a national chmpionship game, including the one we won on a bogus non-pass-interference call. Our record against the only team that matters is deplorable and we ought to be ashamed to wear The Red and Silver. In fact, we should just let President Gee dismantle the football program. Mark May and Lou Holtz are right, Just admit it and you'll feel so much better. What a huge relief. And one more thing...

Michigan still sucks and all the rest of them can kiss my ass.

I think his real agenda is a OSU vs USC Rose Bowl ... and that also plays into some "experts" wishes for a split title.

Amy Lawrence was hosting All Night on espn radio friday night. She interviewed Pat Forde about the hunt for the NC. Chalk up another hater. She asked him about OSU's chances and he said, "I don't want to see Ohio State in the National Championship game after their showing last year." Freakin' moron.

Ryan Ruscillo said that he thought UGA would jump the Buckeyes if they won the SEC CG. That's not a slight on the Buckeyes, but the more I listen to these clowns the more I think they 'prognosticate' based on wishful thinking (with the exception of Herb and Robert Smith of course!)

Ruscillo interviewed Robert Smith about the BCS. He sounded completely bored of the whole discussion, and barely mentioned OSU.

"Experts" who use last year's game as an example as to why Ohio State should not be able to play in the NC game this year are complete idiots. Is it some stigma that Ohio State has to carry with them for a certain amount of years? The whole idea is flawed.

Also, since they keep referencing that game, why don't they look at it this way: What would happen if, for example, WVU lost P. White for the championship game. I think we can all agree that he is the main cog to their offensive system, and who coaches gameplan against when preparing for them. Now, remember last year Ginn getting hurt in the NC game. Ginn was our guy that teams game-planned for, not Troy Smith (not to take anything away from him, he was a great QB) but Ginn was the player who changed the defense. Ohio State lost their main offensive cog in last year's NC game, but that is never mentioned by any "expert".

The whole speed thing is a joke, and it is pathetic and sad that Herbstriet thinks that way. I like it, though. Let everyone say we suck going into this game (if we make it), and see what happens as a result.

Our old friend Dodd with some juicy stuff. Haven't heard the term "Luckeyes" in a while.

[FONT=Arial, Helvetica]The sound of Ohio State backing into New Orleans: It approximates that annoying "beep, beep, beep" of the thrash truck in reverse outside your house at 6 a.m. [/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, Helvetica][/FONT][FONT=Arial, Helvetica][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, Helvetica] It actually goes something like this: Arizona 34, Oregon 24; Arkansas 50, LSU 48; Missouri 36, Kansas 28.[/FONT]


[FONT=Arial, Helvetica] The Luckeyes were recently seen with the gag reflex on Nov. 10 in an embarrassing loss to Illinois. Their reward, after then beating mediocre Michigan? The Rose Bowl, just because the Big Ten contract says so. [/FONT][FONT=Arial, Helvetica][/FONT][FONT=Arial, Helvetica][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, Helvetica] Their ultimate reward? After all the right dominoes fell (see above), they're playing for the national championship if West Virginia and/or Missouri lose on Saturday. Left for dead after Illinois, the Bucks leaped from No. 7 to No. 3 in the BCS in two weeks. [/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, Helvetica][/FONT][FONT=Arial, Helvetica][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, Helvetica] In a rebuilding year, with a defense that still hasn't figured out how to defend the spread, the Bucks are a heartbeat away from backing into a championship berth -- 15 days after last snapping a football. [/FONT]

So OSU vs. (now ranked) Illini is embarrassing. I wonder what Mr. Dodd thinks of LSU and Oregon falling to unranked foes with just as much on the line. Oh, that's right... they're just dominoes.

A quick dose of reality for the major players left in the BCS:

OSU lost to the current BCS #15 in Illinois by 7 points.

Oklahoma lost to #50 Colorado and # 43 Texas Tech

LSU lost to #37 UK and #27 Arkansas

UGA lost to #42 USC at home and #14 UT by 21 points.

WVU lost to # 21 USF.

USC lost to #76 Stanford at home and #17 Oregon.

I must be missing something the real smart guys like Dodd are seeing.

Oddly enough, the team you didn't mention, Missouri, stands as OSU's best chance to get to the Championship game with a loss. To the same team they've already lost to... Just weird that they'd be the most deserved of the teams, and yet represent our best hope.
