Official: "Its College Football Season" Thread

[shepherd]

Speaking of THE SENATOR, did you know 2924 days will have come and gone since THE Ohio State Buckeyes have lost to michigan?

The point being: OSU didn't beat Michigan all those years. Jim Tressel did.
How are the Suckeyes doing now that the sweater vest is gone?
Wait... I can't seem to find them in the BCS standings...

btw CP, thanks for proving my theory.

CP has OSU mailed the Sugar Bowl Trophy back?

Yea, it is on the same truck that has USC's national championship trophy.

Um.....isn't the coach PART of the team? Some coaches are smart (Jim Tressel), some are not (LLLLLoyd carr, rich rod, charlie weis, etc.).

We miss THE SENATOR.....it hurts in my gut how much I miss him. Jim Tressel is a treasure and ANY school in the nation would hire him in a heartbeat.

And that theory is?????

Apparently, Tressel WAS the team. OSU without the sweater vest is like the Colts without Peyton. Not very good programs if they can't survive without one key person.

Jeez, grow a pair. I miss Bo Schembechler too, but I ain't crying about him all over the internet.

That would be because he NEVER won you a National Championship.

To review:

On five occasions, both teams went into The Game unbeaten. The Bucks won four and the fifth was a tie: 1944, OSU won 18-14; 1970, OSU won 20-9; 1973, 10-10 tie; 1975, OSU won 21-14; 2006, OSU won 42-39.

A new era was born with arrival of Jim Tressel. In January 2001, during half time of the OSU-Michigan basketball game he told an attentive crowd: "I can assure you that you'll be proud of our young people in the classroom, in the community and especially in 310 days in Ann Arbor"

He was right. Coach Tressel was only the fourth coach in Ohio State football history to win his first game against Michigan. After nine games, he has posted a 9-1 record against TSUN. (Only one coach, Francis Schmidt, started 2-0 against Wolverines; he was 4-0 from 1934 to 1937.)

Under Head Coach Jim Tressel, Ohio State has beaten Michigan in all but one game.

Jim Tressel is the first coach in OSU
history to both beat Michigan seven straight
times and win nine of his first ten
games against Michigan.


You see, JIM TRESSEL is basically my god, and he was pushed out over some freaking tatoos....it makes me want to vomit. Tricky, where is that vomit smiley when I need it?

GO BUCKS!!!!

Oh, and I forgot to add this little fact:

Ohio State spoiled perfect seasons for Michigan in 1944, (OSU won 18-14), 1970 (Ohio State won, 20-9), 1972 (Ohio State won, 14-11), 1973 (teams tied, 10-10), 1974 (Ohio State won, 12-10) and 2006 (Ohio State won, 42-39).

All of these wonderful facts can be viewed for your pleasuer at www.buckeyefansonly.com.

I bet if you saw Tressel walking out of an outhouse, you'd dive in and try to retrieve his turd for a souvenir.

Now let's think about that for a second..............do you think Tressel would EVER be in an outhouse, seriously? We are talking about Royalty here.

[shepherd]

I saw it happen. For a thousand bucks, I'll tell you where the outhouse is.

Dang, I just got 20 PMs from OSU fans wanting a piece of Tressel's turd. The inbox is full people.
