People will hate me for this, but Meyer completely crushed Tressel in the NC game prep. No way we shoulda been that out of shape, that out of focus, and that ill - prepared.

That was one of the best teams Ohio State ever had, and to look that bad, is unacceptable. I know Troy and the gang were on the banquet tour, but that shoulda been monitored better by the staff. Of course, the game is different if Ginn doesn't get hurt.

Ginn or not, UF still wins that game.

UF was extremely lucky that game wasn't played in November. But, facts are facts. Florida crushed us.

Probably but we don't know 100%. UF played great but losing Ginn killed Ohio State...not only did we lose our play maker on KR and PR. Losing Ginn also means we lost Gonzo. Ginn was the #1 WR for us and got all the double teams which allowed Gonzo to do his thing in the middle...after losing Ginn we lost all that. Like I said it would be like Florida losing Harvin in the NC game this year if they made it. Ginn was the best player for Ohio State that year...once we lost him we have no chance!



But UF killed us..we got out-coach and out-played big time..

I didn't know Ginn played defense...

Hrmmmmmm.

I thought you would say something like that.. I could say that he was the #1CB in his class and could of played D(like Gamble for OSU) but OSU didn't want him to. I could say with Ginn our O would be on the field longer and the D would be on there less...but I won't! hehe

You guys won and killed us. But I will still say we won't know what would of happen if the Buckeyes had Ginn. He was the difference for our team. He open things up for Gonzo, he could run back a punt or kick(like he did).

I'm done because now it looks like I am making excuses for why ohio state loss but I'm not trying to. Tressel was out-coach and our players were out-played. You guys won and its time to move on...
