Interested article the Rivalry. He started 0-6 in the Oklahoma game and ended up 13-13 overall. Right now I would take that in a heartbeat.

Hopefully Jim can turn this around like Tom did ! There is also a espn article from a few days ago on this I can?t find. Had injections today. I?m not all there tonight. I?m still looking for yesterday article and could use some help. I just can?t find the espn article . Head is killing me.

I could see something like that happening here.

good to know there are historical comparisons... and we've - if anything - come closer to beating osu (2016) than either Osborne or Brown did in their first 5 seasons.

Like I said to some of my friends the day after this one: 42-27 before we go for it on 4th and 1. and that was counting them making us pay for a fumble and dumb offsides penalty late in the 1st half. SHOULD have been 35-27. 35-28 if we didn't fuck up an XP by trying to be cute...

instead they went on to score on the short field... 49-27, and we were toast. Then 56-27.

it looks worse than it was. we should've been playing good football at home, and watching them make mistakes, instead it was the other way around.
 
there's lots of historical comparisons - for example prior to 2000, uofm had a series record advantage of 21 wins (55-34) all time against ohio state. Since then Ohio State has turned it around winning 17 of 20 and cutting the difference to just 7.
