Just some thoughts heading into tonight's big OSU/Texa game
Neither school had the best team on the field when they last won national championships. Sorry - Miami, even without Willis McGhahee was better than the 2002 Bucks and USC was an asinine Reggie Bush play away from burying the Horns last year.
UCLA, my alma matter layed the worst home loss in Texas history when they thumped the Horns in 1997 by the not so tidy score of 66-3.
Nobody from Texas is starring down Jack Nicklaus or covering John Havlicek for 48 minutes, but then again, nobody from OSU is out-swimming Arron Piersol or hitting the Rocket.
Texas has better looking girls and a better law school, but OSU turns out better veterinarians (it helps that UT doesn’t have a school).
John Cooper was bad but John Mackovic was worse!
Texas has produced Owen Wilson, Matt McConaughey, Renne Zellweger, Rip Torn and Farrah. OSU has produced Superfly! – Push as RZ and MM are serious negatives.
I would much rather spend a year in Austin than a year in Columbus.
For my money, Herbstreit is a better commentator than fellow-Buck Clark Kellogg, and as long as we are in journalism, I’ll take Herb over that self-righteous UT grad Walter Cronkite.
Mack Brown hadn’t won a big game in his life so how come he is now Vince Lombardi after rolling a nothing schedule (sorry, OU and the Big-12 were horrible last year) and catching a huge break last January? Am I supposed to forget all those losses to Oklahoma and Florida State?
Number 34 edges out Ricky Williams as the greatest player in Texas history since the Gulf of Tonkin resolution and I’ll give that OSU honor to Randy Gradishar, Orlando Pace, or Eddie George. Sorry Chris, you did your best work on Sunday.
Nobody asked for my opinion but I would have grabbed Leinhart ahead of Young.
Maurice Claret should never have been allowed to step on the OSU campus and I’m beginning to wonder whether the same couldn’t be said for Santonio Holmes.
OSU grad Jack Tatum was the dirtiest player in pro football history and George Steinbrenner (OSU something or other) is the dirtiest owner in baseball history.
Jim Tressel – you can take the used car salesman out from Youngstown, but you can’t take the Youngstown out of the used car salesman. That tie and sweater vest ain’t fooling anyone!
The Pats took two Buckeyes in the nineties, Andy Katzenmoyer and Terry Glenn, both of whom turned out to be pussies.
A degree from a school like OSU, which has 50,000 undergrads, deserves an asterisk.
Prediction: OSU 27 Texas 13
