Buckeyes upset the Badgers

What a game last night, Ohio State pulled off what everyone in the college football world figured would not happen, they upset 15th ranked Wisconsin. The defense gave up some big plays at the end, but they kept the powerful Wisconsin offense in check for most of the game. Our offense came up with some big plays, mostly on the legs of senior RB Boom Herron and freshman QB Braxton Miller, and the huge TD pass by Miller to WR Devin Smith with 20 seconds left to seal the victory.

And to add, the Nike Pro Combat throwback Uniforms from the 1961 undefeated Buckeye squad looked awesome, and I am going to try and get my hands on one in my size for my collection, hopefully a #5.

Being a diehard Ohio State fan, I want my teams to win every game. This season has proven to be a test of the Buckeye Nation's dedication for sure.

After all the turmoil with the NCAA's investigation into improper benefits which originally led to 5 players being suspended for 5 games, and coach Tressel being forced to resign. Then our senior QB Pryor who would've been a Heisman Trophy front runner had he not been one of the 5 players suspended, left the team for the NFL supplemental draft.

As if that is not bad enough, then our other RB Hall and starting CB Howard get's suspended for the first 2 games of the season. Then the week of the players who were suspended for the first 5 games were scheduled to return, they were suspended for an additional game except senior WR Devier Posey, who was suspended for 5 more.

But things are starting to look up. The last 2 games we have upset 2 ranked opponents----undefeated Illinois 2 weeks ago, and 7-1 Wisconsin last night. Both games were showcased by 100+ yard performances by RB Boom Herron, and big plays by QB Braxton Miller with his legs. In each of the 2 last games we have ran for well over 200 yards. The passing game is not quite there yet with the development of The freshman QB Miller and the young and inexperienced WR's, but while Miller is developing he is making big plays and picking up crucial first downs running the ball. Miller reminds me of when Pryor was a freshman, but I think Miller will be a better passer in the end.

And we're not completely out of the Big Ten title picture yet. Penn State is still undefeated in confrence play, but we still have to play them yet. If they lose a game somewhere along the line and we beat them, we will be able to win our division and have a shot at the title game.

Never a dull moment for Buckeye Nation
