After demeaning many other programs for their scheduling of cream-puff games with directional schools, what do we find on the Buckeye schedule, but the mother of all directional schools  - Northwestern. Northwestern what?  Are they too good to name an actual state What does Northwestern have on the likes of Northern Illinois,  Southern Mississippi, or Central Florida?  Certainly not a better football program.  Does it count as directional school if the state itself is directional, such as West Virginia, North and South Carolina, North and South Dakota.  To completely defeat the hypothesis that directional schools are weak you need to look no further than possibly the best team in the nation – Southern California.  ?  So much for the name game. 

            This is another game, which should be a solid, perhaps even easy victory for the Buckeyes.  I keep predicting such and my team keeps making me look like an idiot.  Just think a year ago we were all volunteering to drive Maurice Clarett to Evanston for the NW game so he would not have to confront his fear of flying.  Flying and keeping his mouth shut are the only two things he seems to fear.  Most of us would still be willing today to drive the young man somewhere.  We caught a glimpse of some problems to come didn’t we, when #13 fumbled 3 times and alternated pouting on the bench and screaming at Tim Spencer.  Enough! I’m not here to write about players we don’t have. 

            I am getting so sick of seeing the spread offense.
