Haha, well for those of you that read this you know that sports are a ridiculously large part of my life, and specifically Ohio State sports. I would be completely remiss if I had this blog about me and my life and didn't include my thoughts on sports of all sorts.
We'll start off this wonderful post with just a bit of musings on Ohio State football, my unhealthy obsession. The Bucks started the season with a lot of promise, a bunch of returning seniors who could have gone to the NFL, and a favorable schedule. Remind anyone of anything, say 2007 University of Michigan football? Yeah, the similarities stop right there as we didn't lose to our 1-AA opponent, and beat down our archrivals. We obviously finished a fantastic 10-2 by almost anyone's standards, except that here in Columbus our football team we are anything but just anyone and so most folks would view this as largely a disappointing season with the exception of blasting the crap out of TSUN. 42-7, and I wanted more. Oh well, it's not like they're gonna get any better for next year.
We drew a pretty darn good matchup in the Fiesta Bowl, where Columbus goes to 'winter' every year. Should be good, with their top tier offense going against a defense better than an all star team of their schedule's defenses. Then we have our still constantly evolving offense going up against the one team that actually even attempted to play defense in the Big 12.
We open as 8.5 point underdogs, and as it's been widely speculated probably all the Big Televen teams will be underdogs in their matchups. Knee jerk prediction? Bucks win a close game, prob 31-27; the conference goes 5-2 overall.
More thoughts on all this sometime later...
