OMG! I just realized I am rooting for EVERY big 10 team to lose their bowl games! (well NOW it not the big 10 anymore- it used to be the big 10, before that is was the "big 2 little 8" of course referring to osu & mich---but NOW it is the big ONE and little 11!---my OWN new name invented just now by me!! it is soooooo correct.
see----i dont root for "conferences". I root for teams that will impact MY team and rankings of my team-pre or post season. I would not want Nebraska to win because that may MAY make some voters bump them up in the pre-season of COURSE not to number 2 but I want all big 10 teams to be way way WAY below osu in case of a loss nxt yr it lessens a possibilty of a jump in rankings. I REALLY want Georgia the tuff dawgs to score less than 63 points so ohio state is viewed as better than GA. I would bet anyone a grand that GA does not have nearly enough to put up 64 or more. If they hit 63 on the button then they are equal to Ohio State. although, wait, osu is only eligible for one poll the AP and they are #2 so NO way GA will jump them in the AP unless they drop like 90 points and break a record-but even 90 points wont do it since i just remembered then are way down at #6! i thought they were 5th-no way even with 90 points they are jumping the bucks. IF BAMA MAKES MY DREAM COME TRUE it is really funny because .............get this.........the FINAL AP POLL (again the only poll osu is in.) will END UP THIS YEAR exactly like the beginning of next yr. alabama 1 and osu 2. this is setting up to be something else in terms of a rivalry. of course, i would rather beat michigan than win any ANY bowl game . yes, that includes a national championship. you are shaking your head no way but you dont live here and have no clue about buckeye fans. eg- i have slept like a baby (like i always do) before every NC game. i have NEVER slept a wink b4 a Mich game. we are either in ann arbor in a hotel up all night or at home partying like crazy. all night long. they did a radio survey this week on the same subject and it was about 60/40% on it. ie 60% would rather lose to mich then win the NC. 40% of callers (yes........of course i called into 97.1 the fan) and i voted in the 40% who would take a mich win over a NC. raised that way. my dad was a captain at ohio state and all-american. my mom was summa cum laude at ohio state with a 3.98. i was all big 10 in track and played football for only 1 year. 4 letters in track though. even my siblings who did NOT go to ohio state are rabid fans. i dont know why, cause i would not be. you have to BE there to experience it. the stadium, the band, the acoustics, the goose bumps when the band enters, the best uniforms in the nation, the silver helmets and leaves. on and on. i am so fired up i am going to the gym for another workout right now! i bet my rear end urban is on the road TODAY inthe homes of wisconsins top 3 recruits,,,,,,,,,,,,maybe only 2 cause their 3rd best may not be good enough for us. they have to have 2 we would offer i would think. if so, they are in. good as done. well....unless their father played for wisky or something like that. that is why i turned down so many offers to walk on at osu in football, but still had a track schollie. i knew i would never start (too slow) but it was worth it till the neck injury. to put on that uni and run out into the shoe would nearly make a young man faint. (if you grew up with it and had the dream.) I am sure it is like any other kid who grew up a fan of any other school and had his dad play there. all those games as a kid, going into the locker room to get autographs since my moms 1st cousin was a coach. assistant. he later was head coach at navy. can u imagine that locker room at age 12, after the most famous michigan win of all time?? unreal. like a dream. it is really a shame you dont have a team to root for. you seem like you really like college fb, but it seems really strange. it really seems you have more of a deep hatred for the big 10 than you do anything else. that is weird. like i said many times, something bad happened to you. i honestly hope is wasnt a serious injury or something. seriously. i mean that. if it was just getting your app. rejected, hey , just let it go. it is not healthy to walk around with such bad hatred. it is LITERALLY bad for your internal organs and can cause cancer! it is like having severe anxiety! seriiously! i have nothing against alabama or any team in the sec! in fact, my 2nd choice after osu was lsu! i had no schollie offer from them anyway. boubon st. wow. wow. i love music. that is one fun place. i cannot see how nick gets players away from miles. cant imagine how it could even be close. take an 18 yr old to bourbon street and look at his face! the grin will not go away. nick gets them somehow. makes you wonder huh?? i wont say anythiing cause i dont know. i just know cam was paid over 100K a yr and his folks got a condo. that is a little diff than some tattoos. maybe alabama is clean. who knows? i DO KNOW one thing...................they have the BEST OL in the history of college ball this year and better run straight at ND. Taeo is NOT a great tackler. He got to NYC for his pass cov. skills. tons of int's. send Nick an email NOT to throw in his direction. run right at him with that huge sick great line. i want that SWEATSHIRT WITH "ONLY" ON THE FRONT! ALTHOUGH ,,, it is kind of a tossup to have ND win and take the "12-OH perfect season" sweatshirt and have Hoke lose 2 in a row. maybe both can happen!!!!!????? spurrier is a genious and hoke is flintstone. go SC and go Bama! roll tide. sent my buddy B. Krauss and email with good luck wishes last week. lived nxt door to him when he was with Indy. (his in-season apartment) He lived in FL in off season. Nice guy. Great LB too. massive chest. i used to tell my wife to quit staring at him when he ran with his shirt off all the time. LOL. he was a beast. memory----6'3 or 6'4" 250. ran about a 4.5 too. roll tide!!!! go SC!! (go SC more though!! i want to see Hokeys face after 2 in a row.) he may be gone!! i hope not. i want him around for a long long time.
