This is the Midwest's national championship; two of the most storied programs in all of college football, meeting for only the 5th time with the series tied at 2-2. Charlie Weis has resurrected what was a fading program...and Tressel has continued his tendency of getting his teams to play good football. Both teams enter this game with identical 9-2 records, both share a common win over the Wolverines of Michigan. So, without further ado, here Weeeee Goooo!

Nice read.

 

I really haven't yet started to study Ohio State as an opponent, lazy I guess. Usually do so sunday after one game for next opponent so tend to wait till a week to go as I''m on the old football schedul.

 

I was really intersted in the "creative blitzing schemes" by Ohio as mentioned. A must study to see what creative means. IUf Brady can stay with a 3 drop step no one can get to him in a Blitz.

 

Was that you who did salute to Seniors there? Nice. Do remember Coach Weis feels a number will 5th year and are doing the process which he said takes time.
