Interesting. People showing some love for Ohio State? Am I in a different dimension?

Seems not many people are to worried about the new OSU defense.
This team will do a lot of growing up in Texas. If we come out of there with a win it could really springboard this team for the rest of the year.
It looks like we're going to be preseason #1. We'll have the target. I just hope our guys can weather the early storm. JT is a great coach and I have confidence that he can prepare them.
This defense is going to have to play well early and a lot of expectations are on them out of the blocks.
As much as I enjoy seeing the Buckeyes at the top of ANY ranking (any good one, that is), I have to wonder about the defense minus all the starters from last season. No one, not even the MIGHTY BUCKEYES, can lose all those guys (especially the LBs) and maintain such a high level of performance.
However, I STILL think we go to Austin and win, because the Limphorns are a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT group WITHOUT Vince Young....... talented, of course, but NO WAY are they a top five team this season !!
Oh, and for the record, I FIRMLY believe the Mountaineers will be STRONGLY in the running for a BCS Bowl, if not the National Championship game (vs the Buckeyes, perhaps) !!!
