12. INTERCEPTION OHIO STATE!! By AJ Hawk

:bounce:

[WCGreen]

17. Go AJ Go AJ Go AJ

[fishwax]

13. VY throws an interception

This was not a surprise. (Though earlier in the game he had the good sense to hold on to the ball in a similar situation.)

[johnnie]

15. He has been hotdoggin' too much

I think he might calm down a bit.

[fishwax]

18. Maybe he will, but I think he's overhyped

I think he's had one good game against a quality opponent--last year's rose bowl. As an Oklahoma fan, I've seen him come up short in a couple of big games :evilgrin:

[Merrick]

19. Yeah Young, don't take those sacks - keep throwing it up!

[undeterred]

14. Wisconsin 65 Temple 0

:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

22. FUMBLE!! BUCKEYE BALL!!

:woohoo::bounce:

[fishwax]

23. wow! two turnovers in a row!

[johnnie]

24. Yeeeeeee Haaaaaaawwww

:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

[fishwax]

26. You'd think this was a big game, the way Texas is playing ...

I've seen them pull this disappearing act before :)

[johnnie]

27. It's a big game for us

This is the first time the two have ever met.

[fishwax]

32. Oh, I know it's a huge game for both teams, which is why I was pretty sure

Ohio State would win. In the last five years, texas has developed a peculiar habit ...



(that said, they've got a great chance to end their slide against my sooners this year, so I've got to talk trash while I still can ;))

[johnnie]

LOL

Funny pic.

[WCGreen]

28. Well, when the going gets tough.....

the Buckeyes are use to palying competative teams in the Big Ten....

[enigmatic]

29. Gotta love Tressel

He's doing at Ohio State just what he did at YSU; build a culture of winning. And John Cooper can rot in NCAA Hell..

[cssmall]

Yeah, by cheating.

Sorry it's there. Look at Geiger, Andy.

[johnnie]

31. Yup

I agree. Tressel has really done a fantastic job with the Bucks.

[cssmall]

30. All I want to say is that Texas chokes like a person that eats too much

salt.

[fishwax]

36. yep

[sasquatch]

33. FIELD GOAL!! Ohio State 16 - Texas 10

:thumbsup:

[Wapsie B]

34. What was the deal with last year?

OSU really had a tough time of it.

[sasquatch]

38. It was a young team last year that they had

They were uncertain about who was the leaders and who the quarterback was even.

[In_The_Wind]

35. .

[sasquatch]

37. HALFTIME!! Ohio State 16 - Texas 13

Go grab a beer:beer:

[fishwax]

41. interception #2 for vince young

[Merrick]

44. "The most important thing is that we get the ball

first in the 2nd half"

yeah, that lasted real long - and gave OS excellent field position!

[johnnie]

45. You're lovin it...

Aren't ya?..LOL

[fishwax]

48. mostly I'm just happy for you

and all the other great buckeye fans ...

:evilgrin:

;)

[johnnie]

50. Here is another reason

[fishwax]

51. Oh gross! Ain't that the truth

:puke:

Here he is with coach Mack Brown:

[fishwax]

53. delete

replied to wrong spot

42. INTERCEPTION OHIO STATE!! By Nate Salley

:woohoo:

[johnnie]

43. Picked off! Ohio State has the ball

:woohoo: :woohoo:

[GOPisEvil]

46. Is Ohio St. genetically unable to score a TD after turnovers?

[fishwax]

49. 1st and goal for Texas

Young dodged the pressure that time. Nice pocket presence ...

[sasquatch]

52. Field goal, Ohio State 19 - Texas 16

:(

[fishwax]

54. Ohio State might have gotten away with one there

I thought the ball was coming out, myself ...

tOSU about to score again.

[GOPisEvil]

55. Nice catch, fumble fingers.

:eyes:

[fishwax]

56. That was a nice play by Griffin

breaking up the deflection ...

what did you think of the fumble call?

[GOPisEvil]

60. He looked down to me.

NIce play by Griffin, but the guy should have caught the damn ball the first time.

[johnnie]

58. 22 to 16

:hi:

[sasquatch]

57. FIELD GOAL!! Ohio State 22 - Texas 16

:)

[WCGreen]

59. Fuckin butterfly's

[sasquatch]

61. FOURTH QUARTER!! Ohio State 22 - Texas 16

[WCGreen]

62. Mrs. WCGreen is freakin' out...

she's ahd a few beers and just jumped up and said...

You Txas Faggots, that's how to play fotball....

After Hawk sacked Young...

She is made at Mushburger for making it out like Young is the second coming of YS Title

[sasquatch]

63. LOL!! You tell them cigarettes Mrs. WCGreen

:spray:

[johnnie]

64. LOL

You go girl!

"She is made at Mushburger for making it out like Young is the second coming of YS Title"... Yeah, no shit.

[VelmaD]

66. I hate to be pedantic...

but I believe you mean Y A Tittle.

[WCGreen]

69. Of course...

I am running in and out...

Biggest play of the game...

They are fucking rattling this guy....

[fishwax]

65. Missed Field Goal--Texas still alive ...

[sasquatch]

67. That was one helluva attempt though

[fishwax]

68. yeah, I thought it was going to hang on

alas, though, the door is open ...

[fishwax]

70. Aw, crap!

VY did it ... touchdown Texas ...

[johnnie]

71. Shit

x(

[fishwax]

72. Double shit

Are they going to call that a fumble?

[fishwax]

73. No fumble, tOSU still alive

[fishwax]

74. triple shit

that was definitely a fumble.

[johnnie]

75. Fuck!

Game over

[Wapsie B]

76. So far looks like no one from the Big Ten

is going to the Rose Bowl.

[sasquatch]

77. The Ohio State QB's lost this game tonight

[fishwax]

79. Yeah, pretty bad day for the Big 10

Hey, at least Wisconsin beat Temple :/

[VelmaD]

78. YES YES YES!!!!!!

Hook 'Em Horns!!!

[fishwax]

81. You've been awfully quiet until now :)

Congrats to the Horns on a big win, though :)

[VelmaD]

84. Well, I have a hard and fast rule...

I don't trash talk during the game...that's like asking the universe for something bad to happen to your team.

[fishwax]

87. That's a good rule to live by, and I usually

follow that rule too, but since I didn't have a horse in this race I've felt pretty free to trash talk texas (being a sooner fan, I'm almost obligated) ... but anyway, looks like they might really have it together this year.

(edited for stupid grammar mistake)

[VelmaD]

89. Well, if I wasn't afraid of fucking up the karma for later...

in the season...I'd say TCU. ;)

[fishwax]

91. I've got no explanation for that, and I don't

have a lot of optimism for this year's RRS game, either. But I'm still hopeful, and all in all it's been a good run ;)

[VelmaD]

92. I really hope Oklahoma gets it back together...

the RRS game is only fun when both teams are really good.

[fishwax]

93. yeah, that's true. There's nothing like that game when both teams

are firing ... being at the 2001 and 2002 games when we were both in the top five coming in--those are two of my fondest sports memories. And, if nothing else, a Texas win this year would help rebalance the West End for next year's battle :)

[sasquatch]

83. Yeah, and after all is said and done: YOU'RE STILL IN TEXAS!!

:P

[VelmaD]

86. Yup...god's country

:)

[sasquatch]

80. Congratulations Texas

x(

[VelmaD]

82. Thanks...that was incredible...

Congrats to Ohio State too on a phenomenal effort. Y'all are gonna kick some butt this year fer sure.

[johnnie]

85. All in all it was a good game

I don't think Young is as good as they are trying to make him out to be though.
Tressel needs to find a quarterback to stick with. The Bucks defense is really good and if it wasn't for the quarterback switching they would have won this game no problem. 22 points with only one touchdown should tell them something.

[sasquatch]

88. Yeah, he threw 2 td's and 3 INT's!!

The measuring sticks for QB's says if you've got more picks than TD's then you're not a very good quarterback.

[johnnie]

90. How many times sacked too?

At least three I think.

[sasquatch]

94. Sacks aren't his fault though, unless in certain situations

Sacks are contributed to his blockers usually unless he holds on to the ball too long.

[johnnie]

95. True

But for being the scrambler he is, he didn't do as well as I thought he would. And that one were he had the ball above his head the whole time, I can't believe we didn't snag it.
But yeah, the sacks weren't his fault.

[argyl]

96. Vince Young's Heisman hopes crushed in the dust at the Shoe.Buckeyes,

I salute your heart.After this game you should remain at #4. It was that close. Best game I've seen since,well,the 2005 Rose Bowl. Does Vince Young really put on his pants one leg at a time? That may be open for debate.

The Horns should pick up a few #1 votes after this gritty win. Ater seeing this team underachieve for the last few years this is a real treat.

I was pleased to see Ohio State win the National Championship in 2002.It had been over thirty years since they'd done it so I thought a premiere program winning it all was great for college ball.Seeing OU,Nebraska, and the Florida teams winning it all damn near every year was getting old. Maybe this year is UT's turn. Thirty five years between trophies is a long drought.

What a game,what a game,what a game.A little cornball but in this case I believe there are really no losers.

Best of luck with the remainder of your season,OSU.You being in Pasadena in January of 2006 is hardly out of the question.

[fishwax]

98. I don't think his hopes are crushed (though maybe they should be)

They did win, after all, and he showed signs of actually being a decent passer--and that last TD pass was a thing of beauty. He didn't have a great game, overall, but it was against a tough defense and a tough team in a really tough environment. I've been a VY doubter, but despite the INTs, he came away with an impressive win today ...

[argyl]

99. I was being sarcastic. An uneven performance,but in a very partisan

atmosphere he won it in the final minutes.Poise under pressure, this guy's just going to get better. To all UT opponents the reality of Vince Young touching the ball on every UT offensive possession has to be a little unnerving.

One prediction: If UT does play USC for the National Championship in January they'll fare a little better than OU did last year.

[fishwax]

101. whoops, didn't catch the sarcasm ... but

speaking as someone who's team will play vince soon, I don't think the reality of VY touching the ball on every UT offensive possession is quite as unnerving as seeing our own currently anemic offense in action against the new ut defense.

and while I do think ut has a pretty good shot at getting back to the rose bowl this year, I'd have to say that just about anybody would fare better against usc than OU did last year :o:) (but, hey, they were there ;)

[Jeff In Milwaukee]

97. Ohio State

Two Quarterbacks and neither one of them can score...

[Poiuyt]

100. Did you notice how few penalties there were?

What a great game from both sides.

[GOPisEvil]

102. God help me...I'm not a Longhorn fan and I live in Austin.

No sports radio for me this week. :P

[jobycom]

103. The game kept me awake through much of Louisiana

and it ended nice.

Sorry Ohio State. You had your chance to have me as a fan, but noooo, you wouldn't accept me into your grad school program, so I went to Texas instead.
