What game were you watching? The Ohio State defense did a great job shutting Miami down all night. Miami didn't get anything going until late in the game when Ohio State backed up and basically conceded short passes and runs. I was watching the game where on UM's opening 3rd quarter drive they marched right down the field only to get picked, when at the time it was still a ballgame. Minus the return yardage Ohio St. still gave up 352 yards to your 414 and 19 first downs to your 21....not exactly stellar D. They should have brought Jacory over to the OSU locker room and awarded him the game ball for OSU.
Woulda, coulda, Shoulda crap is lame. If OSU plays even semi decent special teams you lose 14 points. Prior was uneven passing the ball all day. Had he played his A game I thinkwe score a few more times. Had the Buckeyes been more aggressive around the goal line a few of those FGs become TDs. At the end of the game Tressel could have elected to punch it in for yet another TD. The score could have easily been much, MUCH worse had those things happenned but they didn't. You start out this paragraph describing lame terms and then go on to say If, Had he, Could have 2x
In the end, the score is what it is. FYIW, I think you guys have a good team but your QB wasn't ready for prime time (although 2 of those pics were caused by misques by the receiver/heady play by the DB). UM is not my favorite...the Gators are, and you know very well what happens when they play OSU
Next year at Miami should be a much tougher game for Ohio State.
Good luck the rest of the way. With V Tech looking like a joke you guys should be able to win the ACC. win out (and help the Buckeyes).
Only point I was trying to make is when OSU meets up with a couple of decent offenses that don't turn the ball over 4x, bye bye #2 and welcome to the Outback Bowl.

Well, I guess we might as well cancel the season then. No chance that Prior and OSU improve as the season goes on. After all, an SEC fan said so!
Hope your Gators get their offense straightened out. I'd love to see both OSU and Florida run the table to set up a rematch of 2006. The Gators really embarrassed Ohio State that day and I'd love to see the Buckeyes get a chance at revenge.

Or, maybe the Buckeyes will get the special teams straightened out and not need to generate four turnovers to win.
I wouldn't say Ohio State man-handle The U, I saw about 800 dropped passes right in the hands of U receivers and if Miami could hold on to the ball when trying to make an interception the game would have been more even.
As a U fan I'll just blame it on the cold weather just like I did for the champs bowl last year.

Well, thanks for wishing the Gators offense some luck but unfortunately them running the table would likely have to involve beating the Tide twice, but if OSU could lose 2 or 3 they could both meet in the Outback Bowl....that would be interesting.

If Ohio State is undefeated this year I'll be suprised. Iowa and Wisconsin are very tough this year. Michigan looks better and that is a brutal game regardless of record.
Hopefully, if OSU does drop a few and ends up out of the BCS I'd rather them draw someone like a Florida or Oklahoma rather than a second tier team.
