That's going to make my Buckeyes look even better when they roll into Ann Arbor undefeated.

... and get waxed. Sorry YTown, perhaps this is the year we get that signature win that gets me off of the WoeDespairCooper train to heck, and back into a positive frame of mind.

Way to go, Joe!!!

pathogan · 09-16-2002, 12:31 PM

not as long as Frank Solich...man is this guy getting smoked lately!!!!!!!!!Go Joe

KCBOOMER · 09-16-2002, 01:02 PM

The Nittany Lions just kicked some Husker butt. I'll bet Solich is really on the hot seat in Lincoln.

Also the new Nebraska unies just suck.

Never was a big JoePa fan nor a Linebacker U fan, just too damn fundamental and not enough style. However, as a former Sooner fan (bring back Joe Washington and his silver cleats), I absolutely despise the Huskers, originators of the perpetual 8 at home, 3 away schedule. Thank goodness for Happy Valley in prime time. Now we will not have to hear about the pretendors who never play a tough game out of conference away. As a commentator wrote today, nothing sadder than seeing the Huskers run the option down 26 and getting rolled, beautiful, way to adjust to the new century.

Yeah, but it may be a short one for Solich if he wanders around Lincoln without a bodyguard or twelve.

Looks like I owe Paterno an apology. A 9-3 record is nothing to be ashamed of, plus he may have produced the 2002 Heisman Trophy winner

sweaver · 12-02-2002, 11:50 AM

Yep, a #10 ranking is nothing to sneeze at.

Craig S. · 12-02-2002, 01:06 PM

I credit Paterno with a great year, but Larry Johnson would be a poor choice for the Heisman.

So he racked up big numbers against the likes of Northwestern, Louisiana Tech, Indiana and Michigan State. Meanwhile, in their 3 games against teams with defenses - Michigan, OSU and Iowa - he managed only 210 yards. Not coincidentally, they lost those games.

I think the Heisman should go to a guy who exhibits great peformances against strong opponents. Johnson didn't do that this season. If the Heisman goes to a running back, it should be Willis McGahee of Miami.

Too bad Iowa didn't finish the year against Ohio State. A win there might have put Banks' name in people's minds. As it is, I think he'll be largely ignored in voting outside the Big 10.
