I had this post ready to go when it was first announced that Joe Paterno had passed but then had read that this hadn't been confirmed by the family.

(This was post was supposed to be posted tomorrow, but thanks to the site's EIC fat fingering, it went live early. Either way, enjoy. - ed)
The season is almost over and it can't end any faster for our beloved Ohio State Buckeyes. Off the field issues, poor performances by the ...

"Hey, Paterno's been fired."
The salacious and horrific nature of the allegations were notable enough, but their presence in the context of the PSU program was what elevated the story to stratospheric-levels. Paterno and PSU had built a "brand" of integrity and honor unrivaled anywhere else in major college sports. To ...

As of right now. Not the end of the season, as we thought earlier today.
A lot of people think it's a shame he's going out like this, and I guess it is in a way. The man's been coaching since the Spanish-American War. On the other hand, he was told ...

Previously, week seven would pretty much mean the season was more than half over. But, with the expansion of the BEE ONE GEE and the addition of a championship game, we can delay the half way point by just a little more.
So let's get together and make fun of Michigan ...

I hate 8 o'clock kick-offs. Luckily it's a nice day outside and decent slate of games to keep us busy while we wait for our Ohio State Buckeyes to face off against the Nebraska Cornhuskers.

As both of my readers are probably aware, I have a few firm, unwavering beliefs. One is that there are actually two people who regularly read this feature, and another is that college football coaches are the last people who should have any influence over who is elected to the ...

Continuing in our series of who we would start if we were Coach Fickell, we now take a look at the Wide Receiver corps.
Where to start...
Well, this probably the youngest and most inexperienced group of wide receivers that I can remember in my time watching the Buckeyes. This doesn't mean ...

Another ICYMI is back, after taking an EXTENDED vacation. And now it doesn't even know where to start. This room is spinning and I'm feeling dizzy.
Let's start from the top.
