Buckeyes 12 minute motivational DVD

No doubt on paper, OSU's offense was better last year. But 

1.Ginn was hurt on the 1st play celebrating a TD and he was your best weapon.

2. Tressell fell in love with having a Heisman QB and abandanded the run.

3. Troy Smith fell in Love with the NFL and thought he had to prove he could win with only his arm or he was too fat to run from the ceremony banquet tour during the 50 days offs. Pick one

4. Boone was playing at 60% healthy.

itemas 2, 3 made OSU one dimentional.

This year, Boone is healthy.Wells is better than Pittman and Tressell will call a lot better gameplan.

Boeckman scares the shit out of me however. Henton the backup who was playing before he went after a hooker is getting a lot of pub in the local newspapers on how he might get a series or 2.

These are most definately quality wins. Be weary of backing a team that backs its way into title games.

 

LSU's losses were worse than Ohio St's loss to Illinois

 

Listen, Ohio St. was here last year. They are playing with a serious chip on their shoulders and have the defense, coaching, and leadership to back this up. LSU's coaches have been mired in coaching searches (some have even taken jobs elsewhere), their players are no doubt thinking that their "SEC speed" is something that they can ride to victory. Also, they have dual quarterback threats, and it's a rotation that I don't like one bit, as it lacks the rhyme and reasoning in its employment (unlike Florida's rotation last year).

 

This Buckeye defense is very much for real, and Tressel will have the LSU defense on its heels and reeling with his playcalling. Prepare yourself, the Buckeyes will roll.

 

i like every intangible in this game to favor OSU and believe they have more future NFL ers than LSU (an opinion in which i seem to be in the majority) and virtually all of them are JR's who would love a 2or3 round bump/showcase performance.

BUT

i sat on the 50 yardline 4 years ago when the 2nd best college team ive ever laid eyes on went in there with a vastly superior team and lost b/c of one thing----superdome is LSU home field.  Ive read multiple posts stating OSU will have 1/2 the seats---bullshit---no team travels any better than sooners (osu does just as well though) and those fans couldnt hold a candle to the psycho tiger fans and homefield emotion was palitable and affected officiating as well. i will be playing OSU on ml for the value but would not play a total or take any pts. (i know they play in baton rouge my point is n.o. is home to them in this game)

Ok. I'll bite. I challenge you to prove that assinine statement.

I'll expect you to be biased with zero logic in your argument, because you're a UGA fan and still pissed that it is the SEC champions playing for the NC and not the SECE runnerup.
