That's funny they talked about him hitch-hiking when he first became an assistant coach...

My grandfather is 87 years old and he has told me the story many times about how he hitchhiked from Kentucky up to NYC for the 1939 World's Fair (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1939_Ne...d%27s_Fair). He told me about seeing a television for the first time... they were broadcasting the signal like fifty feet or something and people were absolutely floored!

Amazing how the world has changed!

I expected this. If you go back and read my posts from a few weeks ago I said that Oregon would probably destroy us. Their offense is explosive and running QB's always kill us. Oregon is the best team I have watched this season. They have been decimated by injures on offense (starting WR's Cameron Colvin and Brian Paysinger are out for seasonl along with stud RB Jeremiah Johnson) and yet they continue to score points. As for SC, the offense just isn't clicking. We still have injuries to key O-lineman and our WR's are young and drop a lot of passes, but the main problem has been the playcalling. What I wouldn't give to have Norm Chow back...IMO he'll be back in the Pac-10 next season...as UCLA's coach.

Re: Ohio State - Penn State Game Thread
Well - game 3 of the WS is over (as well as the series). So I can stay off that thread and concentrate on this one. This year's WS just didn't hold my interest or get me excited.

You mean there is a baseball game on TV tonight?

Happy with the 1st half. Especially after PSU's 1st drive. Still bothered by the "what if" from the bad pass from Boeckman. But up 10 points at half is good. Just hope the 1st drive of half #2 is not the same as the 1st drive of half #1 for PSU. Cannot let the crowd back in it.

Re: Ohio State - Penn State Game Thread
If OSU puts point on the board in this drive I'd say that is it for PSU. PSU's offense has been non-existent since that 1st TD.

And expect to see more of the Well's brothers in this 2nd half.

I got a buddy at this game. He also ushers at all the OSU home games.

Re: Ohio State - Penn State Game Thread
Looked like a TD to me for Robiske. Of course I am biased...

What a catch by Robiskie! A perfectly thrown pass!

Refs gonna review it. Is it a TD?

Re: Ohio State - Penn State Game Thread
I think that was a catch. I don't think there was nearly enough video evidence to overturn the call on the field.

Didn't look like overwhelming evidence to me (but I am an OSU fan!). Homer call?!? Oh well!

Re: Ohio State - Penn State Game Thread
Probably a good call by the review officials.

But it just delays the inevitable.

Watching it live I didn't think it was a catch, but like you say I saw no video evidence to overturn a ruling of a catch.

I didn't see anything on any of the replays that could be called "conclusive evidence" contrary to the call that was made on the field... dunno... maybe some home cookin'.
