***Official #1 The Ohio State University @ #2 Texas Thread***

[The Colossus]

The Game of The Year comes in the second week of the season.

8pm, ABC

Who do you have in this game?

Does the loser have a shot at the Nat'l Championship?

Will Colt McCoy play like he did last week, or will the OSU Defense get to him?

Will Troy Smith and Ted Ginn hook up for 400 yards?

[Assani Fisher]

Did Texas move up to #2 just to hype this game up? Seems fishy to me.

[THEOSU]

Hi.


OSU

yes

no, probably not but it won't matter.

they'll hook up for infinity yards.



Drive! Drive on down the field;
Men of the scarlet and gray;
Don't let them thru that line,
We've got to win this game today,
Come on, Ohio!
Smash thru to victory,
We'll cheer you as you go;
Our honor defend
So we'll fight to the end
For Ohio.

[MCS]

Ohio State
Yes
He'll do okay
Ginn: 113 yards receiving, 1 TD

[Case Closed]

Ted Ginn is gonna eff some Texans up. I don't care about either team anyway, I just like seeing Ginn mess people up.

Question, do both teams have a chance to go to the Title game with a loss here?

[FlyWf]

Given the retarded way college football voting works, losing this game is bad but not real bad for NC hopes. A week 2 loss to a top 5 team is not a disqualifier, only WV looks like a real shot to go undefeated.

GO BUCKS

As long as the game is close, the winning team doesn't implode and no one goes undefeated (other than the winner of this game), it definitely is possible.

If Texas loses, I imagine they will still win the remainder of their games and finish with a one loss season.

If tOSU loses, they have a much more difficult schedule, and I could see them losing another game.


I find it very interesting this board thinks tOSU will come into Austin and take this win. For every question about UT (Colt McCoy being able to handle the pressure, the CB situation) you have to question OSUs D even more.

I'm a huge OSU fan, but I can't see how we get out of Austin with a win.

OSU. Primarily because of the QB experience edge.
Yes.
No.
I actually think Texas will do OK against Ginn (Read: Less than 100 total yards from scrimmage). I think Smith will hurt them bad with his legs.
