Everyone likes a good redemption story…
Tuesday, July 27th, 2010Former Denver Broncos running back [HWSNBN] has been re-enrolled at OSU’s College of Education and Human Ecology to finish his degree.
Naturally, some insecure Wolverine fans are reeeeaallly stretchiinnng to try and put a negative spin on this.
Short memories aside, some folks seem to forget that what transpired with the [HWSNBN] situation is a pristine example of exactly how a university is supposed to act when encountered with that situation.
Michigan already running its mouth
Tuesday, November 17th, 2009In heavy rotation on Columbus sports talk radio, this sound byte from UM center David Mooseman*:
Week #11: Iowa Preview and Open Thread
Friday, November 13th, 2009Tomorrow, OSU’s departing seniors will trot onto the field turf for the last time at the Horseshoe. If Cameron Heyward has his way, new Iowa QB James Vandenberg will share that same experience.
I won’t spend too much time on Iowa this week, other than to caution overconfidence on the part of Buckeye players and fans.
Penn State flushes Rose Bowl hopes
Monday, November 9th, 2009STATE COLLEGE, PA — In his postgame press conference, Penn State coach Joe Paterno had no answers for his team’s odious performance against the Buckeyes.
“We stunk up the place,” said the elder coach, his brown coffee steaming in the chilly November air.
Week #8: Minnesota – Preview and Open Thread
Friday, October 23rd, 2009Once.
Only once in Jim Tressel’s career has he lost two games in a row (during the 2004 season, if you’re wondering). Unless you’re the type to have spent the week poking your Pryor doll in the shoulder with pins, you’re probably not expecting that stat to be duplicated.
Does this sound ridiculous to you?
Monday, October 12th, 2009Two teams, two quarterbacks, two great defenses, two nearly identical statistical performances. What happens when you take one team’s game recap — apparently written by a sports journalist with a straight face — and do a find-and-replace on the names and numbers?
Tyler Moeller enjoys Florida hospitality
Monday, August 10th, 2009OSU linebacker Tyler Moeller’s injury was due to a suckerpunch given to him by a Florida man, Rivals Radio reported this morning.
Details are still being revealed, but according to the report, Moeller was on vacation with his parents in Florida when another man overheard the linebacker identify himself as an Ohio State football player.
Beanie going pro
Thursday, January 8th, 2009ESPN is reporting that Beanie Wells has declared his intention to join the NFL draft.
More details and commentary later.

Whaddya know? The sun came up today after all
Tuesday, January 6th, 2009Hats off to the Texas Longhorns, 2009 Fiesta Bowl winners.
A few brief bullets about the game:
Why was Ryan Hamby wearing Anderson Russell’s uniform? (Okay. Just kidding. Had to get it out of the way.)
For the first time in three years, we saw a “classic” Tressel performance.
Insight from the talking heads
Tuesday, January 6th, 2009ESPN featured a shockingly fair and balanced commentary of the Fiesta Bowl after the game last night.
That’s quite probably the first positive few minutes ESPN has spent on the Buckeyes in years. Even with the loss, the Buckeyes clearly won back quite a bit of respect.
It starts. Plus, the reality behind the Big Ten’s perceived weakness
Saturday, December 27th, 2008Robbed
Friday, December 19th, 2008Attention, Mr. Bettman, Mr. Campbell, and Associated NHL Morons:
When a player is flying through the air, moving his skates backward relative to his body in order to not slice the jugular of your flavor-of-the-month goaltender, and the puck bounces off his edges & goes into the net, it is not a “distinct kicking motion.” Mmkay?
U of M? More like U of Meh
Wednesday, November 26th, 2008Random BuckNotes about last Saturday’s de-pantsing of the Worst Team in Michigan History:
Most Buckeye fans knew that the 21 point line was an underestimation of some sort (most of our predictions here at MotSaG were in the 40s to 10-ish range), but no question the betting lines were equalized at three TDs because of (1) the sheer size of, and (2) the optimism of, Wolverine Nation.
Columbus Crew – MLS Champions
Monday, November 24th, 2008While we may be Buckeye-heavy this time of year, MotSaG is still an Ohio-themed sports site and we’d be remiss if we didn’t congratulate the Columbus Crew for winning the MLS cup.
Way to go, Crew!
I wanted badly to cover the Crew last week, but since (1) we were shorthanded at MotSaG, and (2) it was Michigan week, I never managed to put a few posts together about the conference championship game against Chicago last Thursday, nor the preparation for Sunday’s title match.
