*********Official OSU vs LSU Thread*************

[El Jefe]

My first *****Official Thread*****, for the big game tonight. Care to weigh in and tell us your opinion on whats going to happen. My prediction is LSU is going to see a mean,fast and hard hitting OSU defense foaming at the mouth, ready to get rid of that debacle last year. LSU will see a heavy dose of Beanie Wells, and when they load the box look for Boeckman to make enough plays to keep them honest, boeckman has a big arm and big targets, in Ro-bo, Hartline, and the next Ted Ginn Jr, Ray Small. I am stoked for this game. Stryker maybe we should do Sig bets, to make this game fun.

My prediction:

OSU 31
LSU 17

GO BUCKEYES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Sure-Oz]

GO I DON'T CARE!!!!!

Oh yeah....Go Bucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll be watching the game tonight at my gf's parents on their 60" HDTV but i have a feeling FOX will suck at the broadcast and these 2 teams really don't interest me, hopefully they'll make it entertaining.

Oh, wait, yes I do. :D

The Bucks have plenty to prove. I would say they are pissed and ready to play ball. I only hope for a good game. I think it's going to be closer;

OSU 24

It's the National Championship, it's like the Superbowl, people watch even if they aren't huge fans of either team. It's gay that LSU got home field advantage.

[DaKCMan AP]

I'm sure the ratings will be fine in Florida, Georgia, Alabama and Tennessee as well. ;)

Sig bets?

Count me in! Name it.

I am COMPLETELY confident LSU will win this game.

Our defense is very good and I believe that LSU is going to get some turnovers. Throw in Matt Flynn and Ryan Perrilloux - recipe for VICTORY!

Don't you know that the Big Ten is unbeatable and that OSU always dominates the SEC in bowl games?

On a serious note, I hope more Flynn and less Perrilloux. Ryan commits dumb turnovers.

Well I wont listen to your opinions because you said it was "Impossible" for you to lose to Michigan, how did that game turn out?

No you are the one who always says Big 10 is overrated and the Big 10 is so slow and cant run with SEC speed, well Michigan seemed to handle Urban Crier's speed. Harvin was gasping for air like a girl in the 4th quarter.

Thats so sad. Florida got beat by a team who wasnt even ranked and all you keep doing is yapping about how bad the buckeyes are, and Florida is the one who lost a game that was embarrassing. Michigan even had 4 turnovers and you still couldn't win LMAO.

Yep, we got beat soundly by Michigan. How does that have anything to do with OSU never beating a SEC team in a bowl game? That streak should extend to 0-9 after tonight.

It has to do with you jumping in the thread and talking about how OSU sucks when your team got beat by an unranked team. You always are yapping but when the chips dont fall your way and you loose, then it's back to bashing some other team.

Please point out where I stated that OSU "sucks".

I talk because I can and when my team loses I don't run and hide. None of that has anything to do with tonight's game, however.

[Bump]

I won't be watching.

[Bearcat]

I wouldn't normally think the media could have an effect on the game outside of motivation, but with so much talk about speed and the two conferences, I wonder how the players and/or coaches on OSU are going to react on the field. I mean, last year was similar since everyone though Florida would get blown out, but in the end, it was just Florida playing Urban Meyer football.

It seems to be so much more magnified this year, obviously going back to last year's blow out. They obviously aren't going to do anything drastic, but I wonder if they'll take more chances than usual and not "win with what got you there"... blitz more, get away from the run game, special special team plays, etc.

If not, I think it'll be a grind-it-out chess match in the first half... LSU will hang on in the second half to win 42-10.


(Okay, let's make it 23-17) :p

Going to have to go for the local favorite.

Geaux Tigers.

Buckeyes are gonna come out with passion equivalent to the OSU VS Miami National Championship in 02, they are gonna be ready to knock some people out. They are tired of hearing about last year and all that SEC speed, so they are gonna be ready.

They won 2002. So they would be like the Braves.....

For your info it was Miami, and they had already started printing the back-back National Champion shirts, too bad we had to spoil the fun. We beat them when they had Winslow, Mcgahee, and Sean Taylor R.I.P.

It is funny to see how people say it's impossible for a team to win a certain game, regardless of how many other upsets there are during the season. That game was a total shocker.

OSU has the same chance as Florida did last year when everyone thought they would lose big, and Kansas in the Orange Bowl... heck, before Michigan beat Florida it was "the Big 10 can't beat the SEC," so now it's "um, no, we guess it's just OSU who can't beat the SEC". And before Kansas/VTech, it was "oh, that great VTech D" and now it's "the ACC sucks".

Some seem to have a hard time adjusting to the parity.

The difference being, of course, that Michigan had beaten a SEC team in a bowl game before. OSU hasn't. ;)

[Frazod]

Ohio State - the only team less deserving of a BCS bid than Kansas. After cruising through a cupcake schedule, at least Kansas lost to good team at a neutral site. OSU had the cupcakes and then lost to a marginally good team at home. Posted the same result during on championship Saturday, too - they didn't play. :rolleyes:

These clowns in the national title game is a sick joke. Go LSU.

How many players/coaches on this OSU team are responsible for any of the previous 8 losses? The returning starters from last year are 0-1. I really don't know when their last SEC loss was in a bowl game before last year.

See what you've made me do? I'm defending Ohio State. I hope you're happy. :harumph:

Deserving to be there is another question, and I agree..... they floated to the top, lost, and then got into the championship game by default.

I don't know if they deserved it less than Kansas though. :Poke:

[Sure-Oz]

Should WV be the real #1, they absolutely dominated, they probably could route these two teams.

[eazyb81]

Everyone wants to point to that one game last year as certifiable proof that OSU is overrated. Granted, Florida was certainly the better team, but sometimes teams just don't match up well with their opponents. Personally, I don't see a ton of similarities between LSU and last year's Florida team other than that they both play in the SEC.

OSU has the best defensive talent in the country, better than LSU. My prediction: not only does OSU cover the spread, but they win outright.

[El Jefe]

'Twas the night before the final BCS ranking
The Gurus looked back and did some cranking;
"Akron was a joke, Washington's program was spent,
Who cares if you stomped out those flashes from Kent."
"And Youngstown was easy, so was Northwestern, and Purdue, they were mediocre at
best.
But of course they don't mention the teams that matter I guess,
Like Michigan, the Spartans, Badgers and Penn State
These teams, I guess did not rate
The Illini fought, with some help from the refs,
They knocked off the Buckeyes; they gave us their best.
"The Buckeyes are finished, National title hopes tossed"
That's all that they heard, the critics were thrilled they had lost.
But the fans did not fear, as we just jumped into bed,
While visions of the improbable danced in our heads.
When, what to our bloodshot eyes should appear,
But a number 7 ranking, and six teams to fear.
With a little old screwing, so lively and quick,
I knew for the moment the BCS must be sick.
The Sooners, they choked and so did the Ducks,
But the critics had doubt, they still said, "OSU sucks."
More rapid than eagles they lost all their games,
Buckeyes fans shouted, and called them by name:
"Down, Sooners! Down, Tigers! Down, Jayhawks and Ducks!
Go, Razorbacks! Pitt! Zona, and Bucks!!
To the top of the Big Ten to the top of them all!
Now dash away! dash away! dash away all!"
And then, in a twinkling, we saw with a poof,
The whining and crying from this BCS goof.
The Buckeyes were now one, but who would be two?
None other than the BCS's favored LSU.
The critics are silenced, Columbus will shout,
"Throw on your Scarlet and Gray, and erase all your doubt."

So start your party and let the fun begin
Lets give the BCS Gurus a kick in the shin
The Bucks are back in the top of the rankings, To the championship we go,
all fans cheering O - H - I - O!!!!!

Go Buckeyes.

I'm sure sick of this SEC dominance bullsh*t. I don't want to hear anymore commentators drone on and on about how fast and physical the SEC is.

I like OSU's defense, but the big questiong is Boeckman. If he can hold it together, and not throw pick 6's like he did to Illinois, Ohio State stands to make this a very entertaining game.

Neither one of the Tigers QB's particularly strike me as amazing, but I will be keeping an eye on Doucet. And Dorsey for that matter. Thank you LSU, for D-Bowe, but other than that you serve me no purpose and/or viewing pleasure. LSU's hideous colors hurt my eyes.

F*ck the SEC, go Buckeyes.

I'm going Ohio State 31, LSU 27.

I certainly hope it's entertaining. And I'm pleased as punch that Michigan beat the Tim Tebow's.

Could they at least act a little objective? LMAO

We know how to spell Ohio.

We beat a bunch of teams, none of which stood out, that did nothing more than beat each other... oh, and the Spartans. LMAO

We only lost because of the refs, so we're actually undefeated. And the media (and refs) hate us. :deevee:

We "lost", but it was everyone else that choked.

LSU is the BCS's favorite, even though it was the Buckeyes who didn't have to play in a conference championship. Everyone loves to hate us, even though we were chosen above the other chokers, some which did win a conference championship.

The Buckeyes backed into, er, are back on top.

We still know how to spell Ohio.

[eazyb81]

Can someone please explain the argument for USC as the #1 team? Who have they beaten? I know they have the worst loss out of any of the top ten teams.

Are people that impressed that they beat an average Illinois team that shouldn't have even been in the BCS?

ESPN has a blog that will updated during the game, fwiw...

The argument for USC (and Georgia) is that they have peaked at the right time... from what I've read/heard, the argument is about the team that's playing the best football right now. I guess in a season where everyone has a flaw, it makes some sense.

USC hasn't lost since October 27th, to the Dixon led Ducks... and they did beat ASU. FWIW, Georgia hasn't lost since October 6th, to Tennessee.

[eazyb81]

Yep, I was just about to bet my buddy until he informed me that the spread was now at 4. I decided I liked OSU but I didn't like them that much, so I didn't go for it.

Eh, I guess so, but that seems more like a product of their schedule.

KU has still only lost 1 game and beat VT, MU beat Arkansas, Illinois, and Kansas, WVU thrashed OU....I just don't think USC has the resume to be the obvious contender for #1 over the other top teams.

[DaKCMan AP]

is irrelevant to this thread topic?

Considering he's doing Fox's pregame, halftime and post-game show, he's very relevant to this thread topic. ;)

They already did a nice close-up shot of his MNC ring from last year :D

[Bearcat]

Eh, I guess so, but that seems more like a product of their schedule.

KU has still only lost 1 game and beat VT, MU beat Arkansas, Illinois, and Kansas, WVU thrashed OU....I just don't think USC has the resume to be the obvious contender for #1 over the other top teams.

I don't think so, either. Looking at their schedule, it actually looks a lot like OSU... it looked good on paper at the beginning of the year, but it's not nearly as impressive now.

The bowls helped seperate teams a little, but we still need a few more rounds. :banghead:

He's doing ESPN's pre-game show, so I'll assume people still care about him.

KU winning was great for SC since VT was actually ahead of us....I highly doubt KU ends up ahead of SC...we have legitimate shot at a top 3 final ranking.

[Frazod]

Can someone please explain the argument for USC as the #1 team? Who have they beaten? I know they have the worst loss out of any of the top ten teams.

Are people that impressed that they beat an average Illinois team that shouldn't have even been in the BCS?

Remember, that "average Illinois team" beat the Suckeyes.

[RNR]

Who all has money on the game?

[Coach]

Remember, that "average Illinois team" beat the Suckeyes.

Yes, but Missouri did beat the "average Illinois team" I would have no doubts that Missouri would had peformed better than Illinois did aganist USC.

[DaKCMan AP]

Love Shaq University LMAO

[Pablo]

Yes, but Missouri did beat the "average Illinois team" I would have no doubts that Missouri would had peformed better than Illinois did aganist USC.This is true. USC would have only beat MU by 7-10 points, maybe 14. It wouldn't have been nearly the embarassment it was.

You know that's an interesting thought, you'd get to see how a undersized QB in the college spread played against a defense full of NFL caliber players though.

[Eleazar]

boy I'm glad we got to see the marching bands... :ZZZ:

[Frazod]

Yes, but Missouri did beat the "average Illinois team" I would have no doubts that Missouri would had peformed better than Illinois did aganist USC.

Probably a bit better, but they still would have lost.

I'm not saying or implying that Missouri deserves to be playing tonight.

But they certainly deserve it as much if not more than Ohio f#cking State.

God the BCS sucks. :shake:

It's not even funny what a turd that guy is. I don't think Daniel would have struggled mightily, but he probably wouldn't have been lights out either.

The more I talk about it the more it just pisses me off. It's obvious that there are about 7 or 8 teams that can make a claim for playing in the NC, and it's sad that we can't see a playoff.

But more to the point, I don't see why the media has anointed USC as the "best of the rest".

And Juice Williams probably has a better shot of playing in the NFL as funny as that is, because he can probably play safety or Wr.

Finishing the year the strongest and playing the best and looking like the best team tends to make people say those kinda things.

[Bearcat]

Yep... they are a completely different team when he's 100%.

Corso just picked the Buckeyes, which I would think is a good sign for LSU, but they said he's gotten the last 4 right :eek:

[Pablo]

And Juice Williams probably has a better shot of playing in the NFL as funny as that is, because he can probably play safety or Wr.Yeah...he'll probably do something similar to Brad Smith with the NY Jets.

And as I already stated, the "finishing strong" aspect is purely a product of the weak Pac 10 schedule. You guys didn't even beat anyone in OOC except for Arkansas who Missouri just thrashed.

The Big 12 isn't any better than the Pac 10 is...

USC always schedules good non con games if they can, but you have to get people who want to play you. Next year we have Virginia and Ohio State as our first 2 games...what other school does that?

[RNR]

The mighty BUCKEYES!

While I'll agree that they schedule some tougher noncon games, they schedule games they know they can win. How come they didn't want to play Hawaii?(Yes I know Hawaii got exposed last week)

As I have said before I am not really a fan, a good buddy is...and he gave me a really cool throwback jersey! Got to pull for the Buckeyes.

[CoMoChief]

Both of these teams suck, I dont know who will win but I can guarantee that we will witness one shitty ass game of football.

Really, size don't mean shit. You were one of the naysayers that KU wasn't gonna handle VT becuase of their speed.

Guess what? Sometimes speed is overrated. Sometimes height is overrated. Sometimes skills are overrated. Really, there is only one thing to look for, and that's heart.

Kansas played their asses off, and Missouri also played their asses off as well. I have no doubts that Missouri and/or Kansas would perform better than Illinois would, one way or another.

Now, I'm not saying that KU and MU is going to beat USC, but they do have a fighting chance. I KNEW that Illinois was going to get smoked, becuase of their offensive philosophy, and the fact that Zook just couldn't seem to coach a big one.

[RNR]

SEC Speed! LOL LOL LOL

Such a ridiculous assertion that LSU has so much more speed than OSU.

[beach tribe]

Dorsey owned on two straght plays. Destined to be a chiefs.

[Pablo]

Wells is the real deal. He started the season off kinda slow, but he's just got it.

Bout to see some speed on the defensive side for OSU. I'm guessing Vernon Gholston abuses LSU's LT.

[Bob Dole]

That OSU guy looking really slow from behind.

[Coach]

Dumbass LSU QB didn't even have his mouthguard in. I'm surprised that isn't a penalty, since it's usually is.

[Calcountry]

Who is Ron Paul rooting for?

[Bob Dole]

It's going to be really dangerous here in town after the Memorial Jam if this game continues like this. Drunk, pissed off Cajuns are not fun.

[siberian khatru]

Auspicious starts.

[Bugeater]

lolzzz bad snap

[kcxiv]

Is LSU even showing up?

[the Talking Can]

Les Miles: Master of Preparation

[RNR]

He showed some real speed running after that high snap

[siberian khatru]

Who is Ron Paul rooting for?

Dr. Paul rejects the whole BCS system, as it is not found in the Constitution. Dr. Paul therefore does not "root" for either team, lest he encourage further corruption of college football by the neo-pigskinists.

[Crush]

Holy crap.

A few plays ago they had an all-white backfield. RB, FB and QB.

so far leurenitis has not impressed

out of my way, bitch

[Skip Towne]

Laurenitis sounds like a disease.

[Simply Red]

Did you know Ironhead?
Yes, We moved about eight months or so before his death. He was a fairly decent person. His house is still on the market though. He didn't maintain it worth a crap. But Craig was friendly overall. It was sad. But we're still in the Suwanee area.

[ClevelandBronco]

Wow. That's money on 2nd and 25.

They probably can, but I don't see Ohio St. being a team that comes from behind, at least IMHO.

If OSU can get some points out of this drive before halftime, that'll help them out alot.
