That's assuming that Clarett is back to 100% by the time they play in the Fiesta Bowl. The thing that worries me about Miami is Dorsey. OSU's pass defense isn't great at all, and I think that Maimi will end up winning big because of Dorsey. I'd love to be wrong, but I'm predicting a Miami win.

it's hard to see how any team could play better against osu than michigan did today. they converted 3rd down after 3rd down, it was ridiculous...what miami will need to do against today's bend-but-don't-break D is to actually convert and score TD's...it's gonna be a fun game. speed v power

That's a good point, but Dorsey's a better QB than Navarre, and I think it would be ludicrous to think that Miami will score less than 14 points even against the OSU defense. I think that the Bucks need, absolutely need, Clarett to be playing at 100% to have a shot at winning.

EDIT: I also agree that it will be a great game. I'd love to see OSU win, but I just don't think that there's a great probability of it.

Wow, what a game. I've sent a message to some of my friends thanking them for jumping in mirror lake on Thursday.

I think I saw one of my old co-workers in the coverage too, former OSU male cheerleader wearing a fur coat and a stadium on his head (was one of the close ups of the 4th quarter). Fur coat is very likely for that guy too. *Shudder*

The stadium remodelling was the reason the goal posts didn't go down. Designed as a solid piece to withstand maximum student coverage.

OSU Class of '05.

Riiiiiight.

It was a great game. I wish the outcome would have been a bit different, but a good game none the less.

Good luck in the Fiesta Bowl!

Well, it was a hard fought game, and Michigan made it down to the wire, but in the end, Michigan didnt have enough clutch plays, such as touchdowns.

Our D didnt play nearly as well as I would have liked, but in the end I have one thing to say:

Michigan Sucks!

You know for OSU barely, and I mean barely beating Michigan, you OSU fans sure talk a lot of smack. If it had gone the other way and Michigan would have one, I would have been happy, but, OSU SUCKS!!!!!! wouldn't have been the first words out of my mouth.

Congratulations OSU, have fun with Miami.

Really? The OT victory in OSU vs. Illinois didn't get you on your feet? I'm impressed.

In a rivalry such as this, whoever wins will talk trash, and the loser will complain. Its how it goes

So for those of you in Columbus, how's it going over there? Riots, or general cheering of a calmer sense?

Okay I was wrong, Texas Tech sucks. So does UT and A&M. :(

Funny, the teams I wanted to lose today won, and the teams I wanted to win, lost(Wash State and Texas Tech). I honestly didnt think Texas Tech would get so blown out though.
