Nice to see none of them working to get those coaches off the field, too.

Oh, another great finish by the Buckeyes again. 3 BCS bowl games lost in a row. Couldn't happen to a nicer team.
I watched some of the ESPN coverage after the game and their banner at the bottom of the screen initially said,

"Ohio State 5-2 in BCS Bowl Games"
"Texas ends 5 game BCS win streak"

I'm guessing they created two different banners depending on who won and showed the wrong one. It was up for several seconds and then came down. I was imagining some guy in the production truck going "Oh S%*#!" and pulling it down. But then it was back up again! It came down another time and when it went back up, Ohio State was now 5-3 in BCS games (I think they had the Texas 6-game win streak that time). A few minutes later they finally corrected the Ohio State record to 4-3.

Not a big deal but something that was at least a little entertaining at such a late hour.
