Even if they beat Michigan (last game of the season) no more games to seek redemption. The "fat lady" is about to take the stage. Best you can hope for is to "smell the roses"

1) The Ohio State University Buckeyes will beat that team from up north this coming Saturday.

2) Big XII Conference: The University of Kansas (my dear mother's alma mater) will run the table and win the Big XII championshiop, thereby eliminating the Univ. of Missouri and the Univ. of Oklahoma, and securing the number one seed in the BCS Championship game.

3) Big East Conferenc: West Virginia has to get past in order: Cincinnati at home (and I don't mean the Bungles either); at Connecticut; and at Pittsburgh. A loss in any of these games eliminates them from the BCS Championship game.

4) Pac-10: Arizona State has to get past USC and Arizona (both home games). A loss in any of these games eliminates them from the BCS Championship game.

5) SEC: LSU loses in the League Championship game, which is possible.

6) Therefore The Ohio State University Buckeyes are ranked No. 2 in the BCS poll and will play my mother's beloved Jayhawks for the National Championship.

1. Have to beat Michigan. Fighting Illini running over 8 minutes off the clock! That's embarassing

2. Ain't going to happen.

3. Possible.

4. They will beat AZ. USC only test.

5. Ain't going to happen.

Fat Lady has got the mic.

Well, Dennis Dixon is out for the season. So much for Oregon's star spangled year. We'll probably end up in the Febreze Footsie Bowl. Ugh.

[Nevadaref]

Hawaii kick a 45 yard FG with 10 seconds to play to pull out a 28-26 win over Nevada tonight and remain undefeated. Now 10-0 on the season with a home game against Boise State next week.

Nevada had their chances and probably should have won the game, but just didn't make enough plays when it counted.

Colt Brennan only played two snaps. He was still messed up from last week's concussion. Too bad, I was looking forward to seeing him play.

Mid third quarter:

The Ohio State University Buckeyes: 14

that team up north: 3


And Henne's replacement has just thrown an interception.

Juulie - last night on the news, Jeff Gianola said the "entire state" was sad that the Ducks lost and Dixon was out for the season. I wonder how many calls they got from Beaver fans after that.

The Beaver fans that I've talked to all agree with Gianola. They know if the situations were reversed, Ducks would be sad for a similar loss by the Beavers. I hang with a pretty empathetic crowd, though.

Not looking good for the Wolverines, you're right. Ohio still has a lot of IF's to get through, though.

Methinks they needed to win by more than 11 points in order have a shot at the title game.

Shot at the title game? Hell, they need to win by more than 11 to get a shot at Appalachian St.

[Adam]

I will say this, though, for having such a down year, the Big Ten seems to have managed well enough having 10 teams with at least 6 wins.

[Mark T. DeNucci, Sr.]

I thought it was a class act by Tressel by not running the score up at the very end of the game.

If it's a class act to not want to be laughed at by every coach in America, then I guess you have a class act.
