Thanks for clearing that up.

All these years TBG thought it was because you were an asshole yankee Ohioan [Yeah, ol’ TBG’s going to get a visit from the Department of Redundancy Bureau…] and you were pissed because CB’s INT basically ended the game.

Ohio State is THE most perennially overrated football program in the country. Hell, even Sakerlina has owned y’all in bowl games.

I wish I knew you, I would like a bit of that action….to bet against. Ohio State has a good team, but TCU or either Baylor would have been a more appropriate choice for that fourth spot.

As posted numerous times concerning college and professional football that the game has gotten WAY out of hand I will say this:
If I WAS going to support (which I AIN’T) the meat grinder that college and professional football has become, I’d sure as hell take a weekend in Orlando Florida over Shreveport, Lousyanna any fucking day!!!!!
