Maztinho 0 Report post Posted January 5, 2009 I wouldn't be too shocked if Ohio State upset Texas. In their last couple BCS bowls they were dominated, so I think they come in with a huge chip on their shoulder, and give a disappointed Texas team a good game. I could see that, but with the other team that "woulda-coulda-shoulda" in Bama getting rocked, I think Texas comes out and shows everyone that they truly did deserve to be in the title game and beats The Ohio State by at least two scores.

CanadianChris 0 Report post Posted January 5, 2009 I think the only way Ohio State can win this game is to hold Texas under 20, since they have absolutely no shot at beating them in a shootout, but I just can't see any defence being able to do that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Broward83 0 Report post Posted January 5, 2009 I still don't get how Texas is supposed to feel disappointed and come in like Bama did in their game. Texas knew when they lost to Tech they fucked up and needed a ton of chips to fall their way. They didn't and yet they still wind up in a BCS game against a team who when they last played embarassed them at home on national TV. Texas by three scores with Laurenitis having a few big hits but no other real impact on the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Damaramu 0 Report post Posted January 6, 2009 Well Texas certainly looked like shi-ite in the first half. Great, that's the team that beat OU too. I can get by saying Tech and Mizzou were down in their games but I don't think Texas is. Fuck this doesn't bode well for Thursday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2GOLD 0 Report post Posted January 6, 2009 Colt McCoy gets to be either the hero or the "FAIL" Big 12 quarterback #2. And his first pass almost gave him the F in clutch. Damn Colt, watch that. Granted the real fail would go to the Texas defense but still, he's getting a chance to make a statement headed into next year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2GOLD 0 Report post Posted January 6, 2009 So Tressel has the stupid two point conversion and the lost timeout on the challenge. Good coaching Jim. That timeout would look REALLY good right now. Well nevermind, the sack just turned it into a hail mary situation. I'd say it's history but I remember the Texas Tech game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Conversely, I'm a little surprised Texas didn't try for two; A field goal makes overtime now. Had they made the two-pointer, it would have forced Ohio to go for a touchdown, or two HUGE plays in ten seconds. If Texas misses, Ohio still needs a huge play in ten seconds to get in FG range. On the other hand, they hit the PA, and Ohio still needs a huge play in ten seconds to get in FG range. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Great fourth down conversion pass, and a beautiful slant pass to end it. A great bowl game, let us hope Thursday can have a whole game and not just one quarter.

Kinetic 0 Report post Posted January 6, 2009 Nice game there. It's easy to say in retrospect, but Ohio State might have been better off not scoring that TD so early. A field goal would have given them the lead, and it was sort of inevitable that McCoy was going to lead Texas on a game-winning drive if he got the ball back with time. Oh, well.
