Ten Down, Two to Go

So, the Buckeyes have rolled to a 10-start again. This season is starting to look alot like last season, only it was supposed to be a 'rebuilding year'. Now, they are 10-0 number 1 in the country, and poised for another shot at a National Title. I actually think that this team is better than last year's squad. Maybe not as much pure talent, but definately a better team chemistry and attitude. However, before we get to the title game, there are still two pretty big games to play. What am I saying? These are HUGE games.

First, Illinois rolls into Ohio Staduim tomorrow. Illinios is 7-3 overall and 4-2 in the Big Ten. Their conference losses came against 5-5 Iowa and the resurging Wolverweenies from 'up north'. they have a good offense lead by Juice Williams, who is a pretty big threat at QB, both running and passing. The game starts at 3:30 and is the final home game for the Buckeyes. That means that the crown is going to be WAY into the game. Although I think we should be able to win this game, Illinios has shown potention to cause an upset, beating both Penn State and Wisconsin.

The final game of the regular season comes against the hated Wolverweenies from M*ch*g*n. After a HUGE upset by Appalachin State and a pounding by Oregon, the 8-2 boys in blue have resurged and are tied with Ohio State in the Big Ten Standings. So, as usual, the Big Ten championship will probably come down the The Game. Not to mention the possibility of OSU going to the BCS National Title Game. A few things that Ohio State has going for them are the facts that Mike Hart and Chad Henne have both been playing hurt and they have to go to Wisconsin this week. The Badgers are probably looking to put a beat down on someone after getting beat by Ohio State last week. So, the Wolverweenies will probably be beat up pretty good when the Silver Bullets roll into Ann Arbor.

What an exciting season this has been so far. GO BUCKS!!!
