I don’t know much about Northern Illinois (can’t say I ever heard of them, in fact) which Ohio State handily beat 35-12 on Saturday. But North Texas was a doormat for Texas, rolling over for 56-7, so it wasn’t much more than a scrimmage for the post-Vince National Champs. But we learned we do have an offense, as long as new QB Colt McCoy stays healthy–possibly (probably) definitely minus our starting cornerback Tarell Brown. A commenter at the link there says the Longhorns are becoming known as the Bong Horns. Still, if the O line can keep OSU off the Kid from Tuscola, the outcome still looks promising. Four more days and about 19 hours until Saturday’s 7 p.m. kickoff.
UPDATE Mr. Brown was supposed to shadow OSU’s Ted Ginn Jr., so he will be missed, even if Colt, who is a redshirt freshman, after all, grows a few years as the evening goes on. Maybe somebody else can catch Mr. Ginn.
