Unbelievable. Biggest choke I've seen since the Yankees against the Red Sox two years ago in the ALCS...
I'm so glad I didn't miss the last 10 minutes of the ND game.... not that I'm partial to either team but that was an incredible comeback!
What team other than MSU can pull off such a choke?
Way to abandon the run (which was unstoppable) midway through the 4th quarter. I also like how they manage their timeouts.
Herbie mentioned that the Buckeyes had better watch out for the Spartans on their trip to East Lansing. I figure the Bucks have nothing to worry about as long as we're down by less than 35 going into the 4th, lol.
What's really sad is that the bandwagon sportswriters will all be back aboard tomorrow and singing the praises of a mediocre quarterback who shouldn't be within 100 miles of the Heisman.
Incredible. WAY TO GO IRISH!!!
Why wait until tomorrow?
I bring you the wisdom of Lou Holtz (Within the past 15 minutes): "Don't be surprised if you see Notre Dame playing in the championship game." No lie!!!
Hey Lou, what game were you watching? Last weeks complete beatdown or this weeks team that was outrushed something like 250 yards to 50?
All I know is that Weis should send John L some great presents his way this Christmas. (Still won't come close to the huge gift he just received this evening)
" On a more serious note, I think JoePa sounded pretty chipper in the post game interviews...."
Yeah, he was just informed that an emergency appropriation has just been approved and tomorrow morning work begins on installing port-a-potties down on the PSU sidelines, lol.
Seriously, glad that it sounds like he's doing OK.
I am awake now and the Irish still win!~
Great comeback, the power of prayer! LOL.
They need to get their act together now and win out for the season.
Well you were close. /s
My buddies and I turned the ND game back on just a the 4th quarter started just to see how bad it was. Unfreaking believable. I didn't know that Andy Reid also coached the Spartans.
I knew Michigan St. was doomed when the analysts started saying "watch out for the Spartans."
Happens every single year.
So hopefully the Spartans will resurrect Troy Smith's Heisman candidacy in a couple weeks too :)
Just spot them a three score lead so Smith can orchestrate his own dramatic comeback. Of course if it's against the Spartans not many folks would consider it that dramatic.
yeah....
The game yesterday wasn't as great a surprise as some are taking it too be.
Ohio State and Penn State almost always play tough games against each other. Add to that the weather was absolutely nasty yesterday in Columbus...
As I said, the worst choke since the Yankees against the Red Sox in the ALCS in 2004, though in honesty, that was the all-time most beautiful choke. ;^)
Yup. PSU needed to create some points off turnovers or special teams in order to get that one.
Good one. The Prevent Win offense works everytime.
