Tomorrow is the biggest regular season game in a long time. I feel comfortable saying this even knowing my bias. It is the first #1 v 2 match up in a decade and it is the earliest EVER meeting of a 1 v 2. With the way the BCS shapes up losing this game could mean that a team that should be in the national championship game will probably have to stay home during the title game (bad luck OSU). It is not unheard of, of a team losing early and making it back in but the chances are slim.
As I mentioned to the Sand Assassin yesterday it has been a long time since my school has tasted defeat which means it has been a long time since I have had to deal with defeat. We have the longest win streak in the nation and I would love to see that keep going.
Look at some of what CNNSI.com had to mention re the game… “Only those with bulging bankrolls can afford to buy their way into Darrell K. Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium for Saturday night's epic showdown between Ohio State and Texas. On eBay Thursday, someone forked over $1,575 for two prime seats on the 40; another dropped $2,400 for four tickets in the end zone (and a parking pass). For just $25 more that afternoon on the auction site, that guy could have become the proud owner of a 1989 Mercedes
Buckeyes fans, undeterred by the demand for seats, are arriving in Austin in droves -- so many that the OSU alumni association paid $10,000 to rent out Texas' basketball arena for a Friday-night pep rally. Of course, those willing to ante up for ducats not only will see a meeting of No. 1 vs.”
Since everyone makes game and score predictions here is mine UT 28, OSU 21 (or a score close to that)
HOOK ‘EM HORNS!!!!!
OSU alumni assoc also rented out ur erwin center for a "party"
