My beloved Ohio State Buckeyes defeated a scrappy, yet completely overmanned Michigan Wolverines team 42-7 this afternoon before a sold out crowd at The 'Shoe in Columbus. It was the 105th meeting of what is known throughout the sports world as "The Rivalry".OSU coach Jim Tressel continues to immortalize his place in Ohio State history having now gone 7-1 against their arch rival from Ann Arbor.
With Penn State cruising against Michigan State in the battle for the "Land Grant Trophy" (whatever that is...), it looks like the Bucks will finish the season tied with PSU for the Big Ten title, but they lose the head-to-head tiebreaker.
The Buckeyes will be headed most likely to Orlando to play in the Capital One Bowl against an SEC team on 1/1/09. It would be nice to end the misery against the SEC finally....
By the way, I told everyone all week (work, vanpool, friends, etc.) that the betting line of Ohio State -20.5 was the "lock of the week" and I predicted a final score of 42-7.
