of course we know. but it's fun being that it's a poll on tOSU website and we're winning the poll. it's a bit like giving them the finger across the yard a month before the face to face in the ring. :wave::geauxtige:wave:
Yeah......polls are nice. As a matter of fact, it was a bunch of polls that basically put our two teams into the Championship Game. However, the winner will not be determined by any poll. These are two tremendous defenses and two talented offenses, so it goes without saying that the team which make the fewest mistakes (as in TOs) will win. I think it will come down to which offensive line has the best performance. The group that creates holes for the runners, and best protects the passers will secure the victory for their team. Sure, all that seems a bit obvious, but most fans don't pay all that much attention to what is happening in the trenches. ........and THAT is where this game will be decided !! I expect a GREAT game, and if the Buckeyes don't fall prey to that long layoff again ......... we'll all get a GREAT game !! GO BUCKEYES !!
This game feels like the ARK game. I am not comfortable with thinking LSU will come into this game and dominate. And most of America thinks LSU will. It's in their backyard and LSU's strength outweighs OSU's but I've seen many small men take down big men. So it won't surprise me if OSU wins this game. LSU getting all the media attention and OSU is quietly preparing for this game and that concerns me. Will the coaches and players come out vanilla and let OSU control the game. Maybe I need to take a chill pill, but LSU didn't look very convincing at the end of the season to dominate anyone!
A month off. Neither of those teams should be the same teams we watched at the end of their schedules. Only time will tell.
Yeah, the Buckeyes have a HUGE surprise !! This year, OSU will be sending the FOOTBALL team ...... unlike last season, when I believe they sent the GOLF team !!
