Ohio comes out on top again

It went to hell...

With QB Drew Stanton out, I thought that our football season was flushed down the toilet. Let's face it, he was the primary reason that we got a boost of confidence when he replaced Dowdell earlier in the season. Since Stanton separated his shoulder in last week's UofM game, I've been wondering how well Dowdell would play.

Within the first few minutes of the game, OSU scored two touchdowns and a fieldgoal. Dowdell practically threw it to a Buckeye for a turnover! A lot of us in the student section were yelling to take Dowdell out and put in Reaves. Not only that but Brian and some others were yelling for Coach Smith to, "open the fucking playbook!" It was 17-0.

When the second quarter came, Dowdell and the rest of 'em put their game on. A touch down and four field goals put us at 17-19. We were excited. We were pumped. We were going to win! Not so fast... with only a few minutes left, OSU gets a touchdown. Now it is 25-19. Okay fine, we get possession and we could make another touch down. In a touch of deja vu, we throw it to OSU again and they run it in for another touchdown. Final score: 32-19.

Two to begin and two to end. Damn those poisonous nuts!
