You'd think so. Purdue sayz hello. For some bizarre reason for the last couple of years Ohio State has that one game where they can't stop a parked car. Hopefully that trend ends this season.

yea. I know. but that purdue thing was for that kid.......... game was over after they told the story of that kid who's wish was for Purdon't to win........

Huskers....... you don't have any young fans dying from something, which will be chronicled before the kickoff right??

I'll withhold my prediction until this question is answered.

Not that I'm aware of. There was one a few years ago, "Team Jack".

Husker's might wear their alt uni's for this game though.

Yeah, I'm trying to figure out which is one is going to be the "Crap the Bed" game for Ohio State. Seems like they always throw in a real clunker...but so does damn near every team. Some just throw that clunker in against a real crummy team and still mange to win.

Yeah but last year had that shootout with Maryland. In '17 Ohio State got clobbered by Iowa. I'm not saying something like that will happen. But it's happened the last 2 years. I just want to avoid a 3rd game like that in 3 years.

Well that's like getting dressed up for a hot date only to find out she's wearing a strap-on under her skirt.

Agreed. And I just mentioned their recent clunkers in post # 45.

I'd put both those games in the same category as well...........

Yea kids are a main reason we are living in Nebraska instead of Colorado to be honest :D
One of our Physical Therapists told me that was the reason he moved to West Texas from Colorado. I said wait a damn minute. You gave up this

for this?

Now his kids are grown and gone and he and his wife are still here. He's unique. Most people that didn't grow up in desolate West Texas can't handle living here and leave ASAP.

Wisky doesnt fit the criteria. Ohio State only likes to get blown out in conference by mediocre opponents away from the Shoe

Hopefully you're wrong. But not that kind of loss. Both team will be in the top 10 (most likely) when they meet. I was talking about getting beaten by an around .500 team.

I guess this will be the first "true test" for our defense. Though you can claim Cincinnati is at least a competent offense. Competition aside through the first 4 games they look significantly better than last year.

Those "clunker" games have came unexpectedly. I think most people expect Nebraska to at least bring a good effort.

Clunker games are not typically foreseen. They catch everyone by surprise.

I'd assume Day's got his players attention this week.

If it ain't this game, I just don't see a potential clunker on the rest of Ohio State's schedule.

@ Northwestern? I don't think the Nerds are explosive enough.
@ Sparty? (See Northwestern reason)
@ Rutgers? Nooooooooo
@ Michigan...well things happen in rivalries but...............

Rest are at the Shoe and I just don't see one at home.

Sparty would be the most likely. I dont think it would be a clunker type where we get smacked, like Purdue & Iowa. But I could see our offense crapping the bed and losing a 17-14 type game. Much in the fashion of that 2015 game.
