Party at my house afterward to celebrate the victory...I'll invite the gameday crew to cover it. :) It will be easy to find it.  It will be the island of joy in Columbus amid a sea of tears.

we are deep at G-C-G, and I think we'll be very good up the middle this year.  But we're thin at tackle.

Defensive playmakers, if BG is the measure, then no we don't - but C. Roh will fit the non-BG definition of a playmaker this year.  And I think we have other candidates

But I do think we'll see some playmakers on defense this year, like Roh, Cam Gordon, and T-Wolf.  Really, expectations for the defense are so low, I don't see how they won't be better than expected.

I do not mean to pry, but you don't by any chance happen to have six fingers on your right hand?
