We’ll talk later about the parking situation (kind of a mess) and the game itself (hooboy Ohio State looked good), but here’s a quick look at our day on Thursday which, despite some obstacles, was a great start to the 2010 season:
I arrived in Columbus to find that there would be little chance of forgetting the damn seat cushions.
We didn't think we'd be parking here, but the South Lincoln lot turned out to be a good home.
You know who these belong to, right?
Brisket. Yum.
And we're underway...
We’ll find out at 7 p.m. tonight what the 12-member Big Ten will look like, when the conference announces the division lineups that will be in place starting with the 2011 season. We’re apparently also going to get the answer about the future of the Michigan game, as we’ll get a glimpse of the conference schedules for 2011 and 2012.
Rumor: Ohio State and Michigan will be in different divisions but will continue playing The Game at the end of the regular season.
If that’s true, that’s pretty much all I need to hear.
Chicago Sun-Times writer Herb Gould makes his prediction for the season (via an email from Bud):
The Buckeyes will defeat Iowa, Alabama, the New England Patriots, Manchester United, the Taliban and the Klingons and reach their goal of being dominant in the universe.
We like this. With Pryor as goalkeeper and Boom Herron taking direct snaps to run the offense, Ohio State will beat Man U 37-2.
