Default Suicide Watch in Vegas: Freak TD at End of NU/OSU Flips Spread

The game went off around 6-1/2. 34 - 30, Ohio State with time running out. Northwestern backed up near own goal line, last play of game. Trying to lateral ball, fumble. Ball goes in end. OSU recovers. Wins by 10 instead of 4.

Lols.

Also, turf at Soldier Field looked fantastic. Just gorgeous.

Game was played at Northwestern's Ryan Stadium, which prior to 1997 was known as Dyche Stadium.

Ah. . .I was wondering.

ABC showed a shot of the exterior of Soldier Field at least once. They had some purple lights bathing the facade. I thought maybe they'd arranged to play it there because it was such a big game.

Well, Ryan Field has beautiful turf. Big thumbs up to the grounds crew.

Urban Meyer broke a lot of hearts. Unless you took The OSU + the points.

The Jordan statue outside of the United Center was also trimmed in a Wildcat's jersey.

A few minutes before kick-off my neighbor hollers over the fence, "hey, who's gonna win tonight?".
Without skipping a beat I answered back, "Buckeyes by ten!".
Boy, can I call 'em or what?

We were at BW3's. Complete insanity. Their beer selection blows serious goat, btw.

I have publicly drawn the line at calling it "B-Dubs". It's a good place to watch a game when you don't feel like having a bunch of people trash your house during an OSU game. I can live with the BBC Boston Lager on tap.

Halloween party is the time to trash your house. I'm drunk-proofing all week.

I'm like Mike Damone. Where ever I'm at is the really cool place, Mike. At least that's what I tell everyone. I already have the Led Zeppelin part covered.

Big 10 football sucks. Pac 10 teams trash them in the rose bowl almost every year.

OSU is undefeated. For years at this point.

Oklahoma State is good, but not that good.

Oh, did you mean The Ohio State University?

Motion to dismiss.

Ohio State is a religion around here. That's a fairly worn cliché, but it's true in this case. I'm guessing on any given game day maybe 40% of the population in The Ohio Valley are wearing some sort of Ohio State clothing. It's a bit Children of the Corn-ish.

Any company on the planet would kill for that kind of market share.

I can attest Donnie exaggerates not at all. In fact I would say 40% is a low-ball number. 50% + would not be out of line.

I'll further state that there are very few in these precincts who don't own at least one item of Buckeye apparel, if only as to not to stand out in a crowd.
O-H..., Brute?

Sigh. It's a Block O polo shirt. I'm a sheep.

You gotta give me some credit, though, Mikey... wearing a jersey after you're 40 is pretty pathetic.

OK. But just for you, man. I-O!

Don't say anything, but I think Greg is a duck-fucker. Oregon ducks, that is.
