The 2001 PSU/OSU game (when Joe broke Bear Bryant's record) is on ESPN Classic as I type.
I thought of this last weekend we were at Texas Tech VS UT game with about 53,000 filled to capcity. A small plane kept flying around the stadium. I was thinking the same things but I figure they might have been doing some kind of airal photography thing... It still was not very comforting.
Besides the fact that we did not SHOW up to play and UT won. It was not a National Telecast.
Nothing like college football though!
I wish Joe could find a way to win more games so he can pass that cheater Bobby Bowden.
Well, many of us don't acknowledge that Bowden is the leader in Division I wins. Check out his first 31 victories while at Samford (an NAIA school at the time):
Bobby's first 31 victories should not count towards a D-1 record. Here are BB's first 31 Wins:
1 Howard 14, Maryville (Tenn.) 0
2 Howard 20, Sewanee (Tenn.) 0
3 Howard 34, Tenn. Tech (B team) 0
4 Howard 26, Millsaps (Miss.) 0
5 Howard 14, Tennessee-Martin 13
6 Howard 16, Southwestern (Tenn.) Lynx 0

My favorite is the University of Mexico. I'll bet that was quite a struggle.
Go BADGERS!!
Me, too, Charlie! All kinds of horrible scenerios play out in my mind these days. Just keep praying for the safety of our nation. GO BUCKS!
Ridiculous vanity. Clearly you went to Penn st...
I saw a Swifties ad during the OSU/Indiana game last week.
One of the oldest football rivalries is Army vs Navy.
They play Dec. 4
It is always a big game for both.
Navy has only lost once this year while Army has lost 4, but Army will definitly be up for this one. Navy has won the last 2 or 3 years.
I hope it is another great classic game and not a lopsided blowout.
OSU fan here in Ca. I'll watch the resurgent Bucs (new QB and RB) and then Cal will womp up on Ariz St.
At any Buckeye home game there will be 105,000 fans yelling and screaming (not sitting) in the Horseshoe!
Seriously though, you are right, though I hope you are all wrong. The terrorists will have barked up the wrong tree, again!
Badgers? We don't need no stinkin' Badgers!!!
j/k :o) Had to steal that line from Weird Al...
You must be a Penn State fan! Musberger is such a Buckeye shill, it's pathetic...and if he isn't rooting for them, he's rooting for the Spartans. It frosts us Wolverines every time he gets the draw for our games.
(Different sport, but)...whatever happened to the Danny Manning era, anyway?
LOL, yup. Thanks to my pop. He's an alum :) I grew up watching football with him. His first Christmas gift to me was a football. Since I'm of the female persuasion, and this was decades ago so pre-womens lib, my mom was not amused :)
...and considering you're going to have 100,000 truck drivers getting together in the stadium on Saturday (just kidding...it's a Meechigan thing)...it'd be like a giant "Where's Waldo" game. You'd never find him.
We've got Michigan-Michigan State this week, so it should be in excess of 113,000...or, as the announcer tells it..."making this the largest crowd to watch a college football game anywhere in America today!"
kind of scary, isnt it?
I plan to be at Ohio Stadium waving my signs as I have been for three other games.
