"I hope your Huskers win tonight, but luck and really crappy review teams favor the PAC 10."

That is exactly what I was thinking. I don't watch much PAC, because the PAC is (to crib from Charles Barkley) a wuss conference--but if the PAC gets calls like this for the entire season against their extra-conference games, no wonder they manage to coast a team into the top ten every year.

Oklahoma was ROBBED. I would be ashamed to be an Oregon fan/team member/coach and accept this win, I would be ashamed to be part of the officiating crew, and I would be mortified to work for the NCAA. Unfortunately, evidently the only person in that list who would be ashamed of such a travesty is me, because the oafs are celebrating and

...worst of all...

...ESPN and the halftime reviews of the game MAKE NO MENTION of the ROBBERY! They pretend OU screwed up!

Welcome to Buckeye Country.

I've been watching Ohio State football since I was probably 10 years old or younger, and year after year, we not only have gotten screwed by the media, but in some cases, the officials as well. Not to mention the polls.

The year we won the NC, beating Miami, Trev (pretty boy) and Mark May on ESPN trashed us unmercifully, in their own subtle way that is the media.

All you can do is keep getting better, and don't let them get the best of you.
