1. Not true, mad. not true.
Northwestern will be another nailbiter. Fitzgerald HATES the Hawks. Would like nothing better than to end our run. IF we get by them, then it's time to talk. Otherwise, pure speculation.

2. Just checking Condem.
Don't want to see you guys looking a game ahead and not the one coming up (at home).

:D

OTOH, I am free to speculate!

3. You shouldn't be looking ahead, either, mad.
I think Penn State is going to kick your Buckeye asses.

4. We don't have a National championship on the line. Maybe a trip
to the Rose Bowl. We have nothing to lose and can play with a chip on our shoulders. Maybe Tressel will open it up against Penn State.

Never mind. Yeap. Joe Paterno vs. Lee Tressel.

:D

5. I take it back, mad.
I hope you win. A lot of Lions cryin' over how they'd like a second shot at us. Whatever. Get over it, Nittanies. We kicked your ass.
At your place. If we are 10-0 (knock on wood) and you are 8-2, what a scene it will make. Good for the Big Ten. America's Premier Athletic Conference.

6. On the other hand, if you stumble against NW, and we beat
Penn State, that sets up an interesting matchup.

Oh, and the we have the overgrown weasels after Iowa!

7. And we have the goofers at home.
What we got is a fun coupla weeks. I'll tell ya', mad. Being a Buck fan, you're a lot more used to this than I am. But, we're walking on air. An incredible feeling.

8. Heh! The Golden Goofers!
:rofl:

We have two tough ones on the road (Penn State and the Weasels). If we win out, we win the Big Ten.

A rough road home, though.

12. However, if Iowa only loses to us, then I think we share the title if we win out?

9. Who's Lee Tressel?
I know of a Jim Tressel who's been a darn good coach at The Ohio State University. But who's Lee? :-)

13. Baldwin Wallace had some really good teams (won a national title or two) when
Lee Tressel was there.

I remember, because they used to beat us (Ohio Northern). Just about everyone at ONU hated the style of football our coach coached, i.e the "three yards, a cloud of dust, and punt" football. Called it Wally-ball.
