<P>As a Buckeye, I want to apologize for the OSU football
program.</FONT></STRONG><FONT size=2> </P></FONT><FONT face="Comic Sans MS"

<P><BR></FONT><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" color=#ff0000 size=5>After listening
to many at ESPN, and a number of national sports talk radio show hosts over
the weekend, I want to apologize for the Buckeyes being
<BR>12-and-0.</FONT><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" size=2> </P></FONT><FONT
face="Comic Sans MS" color=#ff0000 size=5>
<P>I also want to apologize for the program beating six of the top 25 best
offenses so far this season. After listening to all of these guys, I won't
name names (you know who they are), I now realize that OSU's schedule must not
have been very good.</FONT><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" size=2> </P></FONT><FONT
face="Comic Sans MS" color=#ff0000 size=5>
<P>Someone within the program should say they are sorry for beating Texas Tech
and the fourth ranked offense in the country. And of course Tech has put up
those numbers against some weak teams, including Texas and Texas A-&-M.
OSU was only leading 38-7 after three quarters and Tech's lone TD while the
game was still a contest came on a great play their QB made on 4th and
2.</FONT><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" size=2> </P></FONT><FONT
face="Comic Sans MS" color=#ff0000 size=5>
<P>Apologies go out to WSU and Jason Gesser. OSU didn't realize you were going
to finish the season as the Pac-10 champion. If the Buckeyes had realized what
the rest of the nation is saying about them, which is they suck, they would
have just rolled over for Gesser and the 11th ranked offense in the country.
Shame on the Buckeyes for giving them that <BR>25-7 beating. I know the Bucks
are sorry.</FONT><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" size=2> </P></FONT><FONT
face="Comic Sans MS" color=#ff0000 size=5>
<P>OSU owes apologies to Purdue's 10th ranked offense, which they mistakenly
held to <BR>6 points and no touchdowns. Ditto to Illinois' 9th ranked offense,
which put up an eye popping 16 points in four-plus quarters.</FONT><FONT
face="Comic Sans MS" size=2> </P></FONT><FONT face="Comic Sans MS"
color=#ff0000 size=5>
<P>Hey PSU and the 15th rated offense, OSU is sorry for getting lucky and
beating you.<BR>The Buckeyes now know that Larry Johnson is the best back in
the nation, which I actually believe, they didn't mean to hold him to 66
yards. Tell him they're sorry and didn't mean to interrupt his streak of
setting Penn St. rushing records.<BR>That happened before the Bucks realized
they suck.</FONT><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" size=2> </P></FONT><FONT
face="Comic Sans MS" color=#ff0000 size=5>
<P>According to the latest stats after this weekend's games, Ohio State has
defeated the 4th (Texas Tech held to 21 points, at least 7 of which came late
in the 4th Quarter against OSU's 3rd string D), 9th (Purdue held to <BR>6
points), 10th (Illinois, held to 16 points), 11th (Washington State, held to 7
points), 15th (Penn St., held to 7 points), 23rd (UC, held to <BR>19 points),
& 46th (Minnesota, 3 points) rated offenses.</FONT><FONT
face="Comic Sans MS" size=2> </P></FONT><FONT face="Comic Sans MS"
color=#ff0000 size=5>
<P>The Bucks now know all of this. If they are lucky enough to beat a
dominating <BR>9-and-2 team, which has won four games by three points, OSU
will turn down the invitation to the game out in the desert. After listening
to all of the "experts" over the last week OSU has realized it can't play
football. Thanks for clearing this misunderstanding for them. Please strike
the Buckeyes from the polls.<BR>Don't let the fact that the Buckeyes have
faced three Heisman Trophy candidates -- Larry Johnson, Jason Gesser and Kliff
Kingsbury, dominating all three -- stand in your way.</FONT><FONT
face="Comic Sans MS" size=2> </P></FONT><FONT face="Comic Sans MS"
color=#ff0000 size=5>
<P>I mean, clearly, we're not even the best team in the Big Ten
correct?<BR>Iowa has played a tougher schedule correct? Their non-conference
schedule included Akron, Miami (OH), Iowa State, & Utah State. Oh wait, no
that can't be true because Ohio State played Texas Tech (Potential Big <BR>12
champion), Washington State (probable PAC-10 Champion), Kent St. and UC. Just
last week "experts" were claiming Texas could beat OSU head to head, could
they not even beat Texas Tech?</FONT><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" size=2>
</P></FONT><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" color=#ff0000 size=5>
<P>IF, we are lucky enough to overcome the "Michigan" stigma and produce a
victory this Saturday.....please continue to doubt us all the way to Arizona
with a healthy Maurice Clarett.</FONT><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" size=2>
</P></FONT><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" color=#ff0000 size=5>
<P>In closing, does anyone know what Illinois, Purdue, PSU and Minnesota all
have in common? Answer: They all were leading the conference in offense the
week before OSU played them Go Bucks!!! In Tress We Trust.</FONT><FONT
