Buckeyes back to win … or claim Horrible Hat Trick
Buckeyes back to win … or claim Horrible Hat Trick It would be different if, say, Maurice Clarett were still punking things up, if the Buckeyes were accessorizing orange prison jump suits with Big Ten championship rings.

Spurrier plans to avoid repeat of last season’s fade
http://www2.journalnow.com/content/2008/aug/23/spurrier-plans-to-avoid-repeat-of-last-seasons-fad/ He’s disappointed but not despondent; guarded, yet full of hope; enthusiastic but careful enough not to set himself up for another crash. For Coach Steve Spurrier, bringing South Carolina from the middle of the pack to the top of the Southeastern Conference has been as much about balancing emotions as finding an offense that…
