Me too what a load of crap they will have a right to be mighty pissed off if they miss out on a winning season by a game.

The haters were skeptical about the banged-up Giants, predicting that they might fall to the Carolina Panthers last Thursday. There was no Hakeem Nicks, no Ahmad Bradshaw and no David Diehl. Well, New York had no problem.

Eli Manning and the Giants put on an absolute clinic, bludgeoning Carolina from the very first drive. Third-string running back Andre Brown stepped into the starting role and dominated. Receiver Ramses Barden -- whom I'd equated to Big Foot before, as I'd heard rumors about him but never actually saw him do anything -- was a Nicks clone. Manning established tight end Martellus Bennett immediately and continued to exploit mismatches.

Manning's performance was a signature display of quarterback play and leadership. Before the game, Manning told his guys not to think of the teammates who weren't able to play. The Giants, it turned out, had more than enough to win.

Manning and Tom Coughlin separate the Giants from the rest of the pack. They are clearly the division's elite quarterback-head coach combination.

Well Zilla it was a classic. The Buckeyes were already down their best linebacker, and during the game lost their star quarterback due to injury thanks to some jackass who pulled him down neck-first onto his head. Late in the 4th quarter the Buckeyes were down 22-14, but their backup QB managed to engineer a touchdown and a successful 2-pt conversion with only seconds left on the clock. Ohio State then put it away 29-22 in overtime, in front of a roaring Columbus crowd.

OSU-Purdue has turned out to be pretty good the last few years. Looking forward to next year's meeting. :{D

Well, except that it would be "no other,' not "not other." And, there are other countries, like Canada, Australia.....
