Ohio State in control of own destiny

  • Penn State closes at Wisconsin, probably a PSU loss. If OSU wins out, there could be several teams with 2 losses. OSU would win head to head tiebreaker. Crazy but true.

  • if osu wins all their div. games they are in the title game. non-conf. games and games against other division teams don't matter.

  • One game at a time. Whisky should be vulnerable after this loss next week. Hard to recover from that.

  • I expect WI to be a monumental challenge next week.

    You never want to be playing a good opponent when they're coming off of a loss; especially the way WI lost tonite.

    We better be ready.

    Wrong, overall conference record determines division winner. Division record for tie breakers. If we run the table and PSU suffers an additional conf. loss [ in addition to losing to the Bucks ] we will win the division

    Good days, bad days --- always a Buckeye. Time to begin the assault on the 2013 BCS National Championship

    I hope they are vulnerable...it could go either way. They might be amped and take it out on us. We need to attack like sparty did, and we need some breaks to go our way. Nice to know we control our own destiny, though.

  • You are delusional. Maybe you haven't noticed that our offense is horrible.

    Our offense is horrible, but it's getting better...Braxton is due for a breakout game, and wussky's D is suspect. After watching the game on Sat, I feel that this game could simply come down to breaks/turnovers...if we can shake up Russell, we could definitely win this game. I'm much more optimistic than I was a few weeks ago, and I'm sure the team is, too.

  • we don't have a passing game, msu does. our defensive backs are terrible and wilson is a pretty good running and throwing quarterback. we have an offensive coordinator with zero imagination. i would love for us to pull an upset and get some payback for last year but i doubt if we will block a punt, a field goal and get a safety from the endzone all which lead to scores like msu did. we will need a clean, no penalty game, some breaks and bollman sciliano and fickel calling in sick with the flu. then maybe we have a chance.

    tough to see that happening with a QB that has yet to throw more than 5 completions in a big ten game.

  • If they play mistake free, they can keep it close, at which point anything can happen.
    Wilson can turn the football over when pressured, he's done it his whole career.

  • We have a team that cannot throw and complete a forward pass. We aren't in control of sh*t! No way in hell we beat Wiscy this weekend. Our defense will keep us from getting blown out.

    If Braxton can mix in some throws like he did at Nebraska there is a shot. Hopefully the weather is decent to allow some passing.

    Buckeye Nation....I know its been a rough year and we have had a lot lof disappointment in 2011, but wheres the faith? It's college football anything can happen and any giving Saturday. It amazes me the amount of buckeye fan who thinks we have no chance of winning. You should have your fandom revoked...lol Who thought Texas Tech would beat Oklahoma Saturday? No one but the true diehard Texas Tech fans. Yeah, we have no looked good at times this year, but we can beat anyone and I def belive we will win Saturday. A true fan believes in their team no matter what! I will be in The Shoe screaming my butt off like every true fan should be....Go Bucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
