Re: The Rivalry
[ QUOTE ]
Pretty awesome doc (non mich/osu fan), really enjoyed it, too bad this thread is full of retarded arguing. Did the reporter with the uneven goatee send anyone else on tilt? [/ QUOTE ] No, he wasn't too bad. The only thing that tilted me was that Ohio State alums/fans had 3 or 4 analogies that made no sense. If I rewatch it then I'll post them here. Probably hick quotes that you only get if you're a Buckeye fan.

This is a reasonable storyline, I guess, but they could probably have also focused on the season-saving joy that 95 and 96 brought and the lead-in to the great 97 season. Also, no one talked to Carr, and if I understand correctly this was simply because they didn't contact him, despite him being 1) the current coach and 2) being on the sidelines since 1980. I realize Lloyd is not the most open with the media but I think he could give some interesting thoughts on the rivalry.

I actually remember being shocked there wasn't even any mention of the 100th meeting in 2003.

Re: The Rivalry
Yeah, I was very surprised that there was no mention of Lloyd Carr in the documentary. He's kind of an important part of this rivalry, as he's been on the sidelines for 27 years.

Re: The Rivalry
The documentary really stopped caring after Woody's death, really. It mentioned Cooper in passing and Tressel for a little bit, but it devoted a ton of time to 1968-1978, for obvious reasons, and after it lost it's "main character" in Woody it kind of just flash forwarded to today.
