It’s amazing how far back into history goblue and his strange cabal of cohorts must go in order to find video replays and textual reminiscences of an OSU loss to Michigan.  One can imagine them poring over old files like those little gorks in the Clinton War Room trying to find dirt from the 1970s on the [...]

High of 40 and a low of 27. 30% chance of precipitation in the form of rain/snow showers.

The year was 1989. Where were you? The original George Bush was in his first year as your President. The Berlin Wall had crumbled a mere 18 days earlier, just as Bush’s predecessor Ronald Reagan had hoped when demanding that Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev “tear down this wall!” 29 months earlier in a speech in [...]

From the buckeyebattlecry.blogspot.com – This makes at least seven OSU fans that I’ve run into who can’t seem to understand that Michigan was playing without Hart and Henne against Wisconsin.

The year was 1991. Where were you? George Bush was your President and riding an approval rating in excess of 80 percent after watching his military juggernaut topple Iraq in the first Gulf War the previous spring. How quickly things can change when you are the leader of the free world. Clarence Thomas was just [...]

First off, we all know Eric’s Buckeye “Analysis” is much closer to a Buckeye Bias – see previous column If I were Lloyd Carr, I would take at least two things away from the Illinois game: 1) the no huddle offense and 2) spread the field. The no huddle offense absolutely killed Ohio State. Eric [...]

Everything depends upon two factors:  1) injuries and 2) weather. Let’s start with injuries.  Mike Hart and Chad Henne are the heart and soul of the Wolverine offense.  Mario Manningham can make plays, but not consistently when Ryan Mallet is throwing him the ball.  I think that even Michigan fans will be forced to admit that [...]
