Buckeyes Do get a BCS Game
-
PSU also grabbed Michael Zordich and Brandon Beachum of Youngstown Cardinal Mooney last season. Zordich went there because his father was a star at Penn State. Beachum is another story. The kid was tough as nails as a RB/LB as a four-year starter at Youngstown, but attended three area camps (at OSU, Michigan & PSU) and PSU was the only one of the three to offer him. He received other offers from some very big DI schools, but I found it interesting that he was in Michigan's and OSU's camp and had interest in going to those places but never got invited after working out for them.

Beachum is built like a tank. I actually had the opportunity to speak to him LAST year when he and DJ Woods were at PSU together for a visit. Nice kid and a nice family. He starts on special teams and actually got some carries this year as a running back - PSU went four deep this year with Royster, Green, Carter and Beachum - until Carter tore his ACL. Not saying this group is near the four-deep that USC sports, but, a good group nonetheless.

Ohio State to Play Texas in the Fiesta Bowl!!!
-
Im down here in Longhorn country, gonna have to have a few people over for the game. I sure hope I get to cheer on a winning team and not have to hear there crap.

A preview of what to watch is DE Brian Orakpo dueling against our Offensive Tackles
And Texas has to watch out for this guy
and dont forget this guy... James Laurinaitis Ohio State LB
and dont forget this guy... James Laurinaitis Ohio State LB
How could you forget about him? He was better as a soph than his jr and sr years, and, well, he is the only person beside Ray Lewis to get credit for 1.76 tackles when he touches a guy after he is down, and he gets 3.12 tackles for every tackle he actually makes.
-
Orakpo will be in our backfield all day. our RT Sucks!
-
I hope we can repeat this performance.

The Buckeyes have more than just Orakpo to worry about. Sergio Kindle's also a pretty good player:
He reminds me a lot of Julian Peterson. If he declares for the draft, he should be selected in the late Round 1/early Round 2 area.

well Tressel will have to keep an extra TE in there to help Block the outside. Which was a mistake when they played FLorida we didnt have a TE on that stupid run and shoot spread offense.
I hate the spread it only works against slower defenses.
Head or Gut? -
The Buckeyes know they are the underdogs and that everyone wishes them to fail, They are going to suprise everyone!

Like the last few times they have played in a BCS game?
Seeing as how they have a 4-2 BCS record, I think your "few" is an exaggeration.

I disagree.
Florida runs it and the SEC has some fast defensive teams. Ohio State wasn't a slow defense 2 years ago.
What it does is give the offense more options....and more options is harder to defend. It also creates space....and space is what any offense tries to create.
If everybody had like minds, we would never learn. -

No other coach has as many BCS wins.

yes that is true but your O-Line needs to built for that type of a game plan, and we at the present are more suited to run it down the gut, 3 yards and a pile of bodies! usally OC's use the spread because there OL is smaller and not as strong as the opposing defenses they will face. same as zone blocking.
