I was actually rooting for OSU in their last two games, because both would've benefitted us had OSU won. Dammit.
October 8th, 2011 at 11:31 PM ^
Yes you are right, but what happens if Ohio doesn't go to a bowl this year? That might help us as well.
October 8th, 2011 at 11:48 PM ^
Sorry that I want to beat OSU when they're up, and sorry that I want us to win our division. I'll root against OSU in all of their division games (except maybe Wisco).
You're right that them not going to a bowl game could help us, but it won't affect us if they do go and we have more wins than they do - at least from what I can see, there's no other way that could benefit us.
October 8th, 2011 at 11:50 PM ^
May I suggest thicker skin?
October 9th, 2011 at 12:25 AM ^
NO YOU MAY NOT.
October 9th, 2011 at 12:31 AM ^
Bill Murray in The Man Who Knew Too Little.
Nice reference.
October 8th, 2011 at 11:49 PM ^
that game could possibly be for their bowl eligibility and our entry into the inagural Big 10 championship game is giving me goosebumps.
/shudder
October 8th, 2011 at 11:31 PM ^
October 8th, 2011 at 11:33 PM ^
Root for them all season. It's worked like a charm so far.
October 8th, 2011 at 11:29 PM ^
But surprising thing is that the OSU defense got tired (again) in the 4th quarter.
October 9th, 2011 at 12:57 AM ^
I guess Tressel was the 'roid hook up for the team too
October 8th, 2011 at 11:29 PM ^
Nebraska has a game similar to UM tonight. Down by multiple posessions and make the necessary adjustments at the half to pull out the win. Good for them, always nice to see TSIO lose.
October 8th, 2011 at 11:33 PM ^
Well, they were down worse, were helped by additional injuries to key players on the other team, and won much more narrowly...but yes, great to see ANOTHER loss for OSU. Here's to Illinois and Wisconsin taking them to 3-5!
October 9th, 2011 at 12:14 AM ^
What is Wisconsin going to do to them?
October 9th, 2011 at 12:22 AM ^
Spiny dildo prison rape?
October 9th, 2011 at 1:01 AM ^
I'm guessing it's going to involve salad tossing.
October 8th, 2011 at 11:29 PM ^
the tire fire burns....
October 8th, 2011 at 11:30 PM ^
Fickell basically ran away from Little Bo P after the handshake. It's all just so fucking glorious.
OSU has a very real chance of being 3-5 going into their final four games versus Indiana, Purdue, PSU, and Michigan. If PSU can stand up, they're playing us for bowl eligibility.
October 8th, 2011 at 11:30 PM ^
Nebraska just delivered a load of butt hurt on the Bucks...
October 8th, 2011 at 11:31 PM ^
The Implosion in the second half was unbeliveable
October 8th, 2011 at 11:31 PM ^
you suck, ohio. i rooted for you for the 1st time, 2 weeks in a row and and you blow the games down the terlit. dang those flashy golden bocatredhawksrocketfalcons
October 9th, 2011 at 12:34 AM ^
please, please, please keep rooting for them. ok? thanks.
October 8th, 2011 at 11:31 PM ^
October 9th, 2011 at 12:59 AM ^
No offense but it is overall big ten record so we don't have to beat nebraska if their record is worse than ours.
October 9th, 2011 at 8:54 PM ^
you don't root for tsio, ever. period.
October 8th, 2011 at 11:32 PM ^
Meltdown shall be glorious
October 8th, 2011 at 11:37 PM ^
F-this, F-that, everywhere an F-something. They're mad at Fickell for playing Bauserman, which is like... you want Braxton Miller to possibly get a season ending injury?
They're drunk, angry, depressed, and unintelligent. Somebody get a cage and a hunk of raw meat. The fights will be glorious.
October 8th, 2011 at 11:32 PM ^
I'm glad these jackasses are losing (and choking for god's sakes) to over-rated Nebraska teams. After a decade of cheating the karma finally arrived.
October 9th, 2011 at 3:08 PM ^
Dress them with sexuality questioning attire?
October 8th, 2011 at 11:35 PM ^
It is too early to know that Ohio winning this game will actually benefit Michigan. Actually, I think that Ohio losing benefits Michigan better than Nebraska losing because of the long-term recruiting ramifications.
Ohio needs to suck for a few years so that Michigan can start getting more Woodsons, Grbacs, and Howards out of Ohio again. This year is a great start, but only a Spartan would interpret one year as a pattern, and there are no Spartans in Ann Arbor.
Even when it doesn't seem that way, every time Ohio loses, it benefits Michigan.
October 8th, 2011 at 11:35 PM ^
I would have liked to see them win, only for the conference implications, nonetheless, I will revel in their buckeye tears.
October 8th, 2011 at 11:35 PM ^
October 8th, 2011 at 11:35 PM ^
Bauserman is absolutely horrendous.
October 8th, 2011 at 11:41 PM ^
October 8th, 2011 at 11:36 PM ^
I won't ever root for OSU and tonight's game was magic. Bauserman is so horrible (even if he came in on no warmup, I am choosing to ignore that part).
October 8th, 2011 at 11:36 PM ^
11w Ohio Schadenfreude. I have to say I am enjoying it.
FUCK MY LIFE CAN YOU GET BANNED FROM 11W IF YOU LEVEL AD HOMINEM ATTACKS/PERSONAL STUFF AT YOURSELF? HEY MATT YOU ARE AN ASSBAG FOR EVER TRUSTING TRESSEL AND BELIEVING IN FICKELL ALSO THAT GIRL YOU HAVE A CRUSH ON DOESNT LIKE YOU AT ALL YOU LOSER
October 8th, 2011 at 11:40 PM ^
October 8th, 2011 at 11:47 PM ^
11W ad hominem is an insult that looks exactly like another insult but means something completely different.
October 9th, 2011 at 12:00 AM ^
it, i checked
October 9th, 2011 at 12:18 AM ^
Other than finding boobies.
October 9th, 2011 at 12:20 AM ^
It does?!?!
October 9th, 2011 at 12:24 AM ^
It really doesn't.
October 8th, 2011 at 11:38 PM ^
I still can't believe OSU's offense scored 27 points. Nebraska's defense has really been exposed the last 4 weeks.
I hated rooting for Nebraska but you have to love an OSU loss. And America's worst fan base continues to feel the pain.
It would have been the perfect day had Notre Dame lost.
October 9th, 2011 at 1:28 AM ^
Neither defense seemed to be able to handle a running quarterback very well. Denard says O HAI.
October 9th, 2011 at 1:41 AM ^
Notre Dame is completely irrelevant once they lose their 2nd game of the season theory and root for them since it makes us look better axiom as well as the its always FUN to see them lose correlary.
October 9th, 2011 at 7:17 PM ^
Don't kid yourself. A two loss ND that wins their last 10 games in a row will steal a BCS Bowl.
October 8th, 2011 at 11:39 PM ^
I was surprised NE played so poorly through most of the game! But I'm glad OSU lost! I'd rather just beat NE in the big house!
October 8th, 2011 at 11:39 PM ^
a demoralizing loss early in the season. I love it. I will NEVER root for pOSU to win.
