O - H - Oh No!

It's that time of year again, folks! FOOTBALL TIME, that is! And of course, everyone in our house has been geared up for the games each week since the season began...





BUCKEYE BATTLE CRY

In old Ohio there's a team
That's know throughout the land;
Eleven warriors, brave and bold,
Whose fame will ever stand.
And when the ball goes over,
Our cheers will reach the sky,
Ohio Field will hear again
The Buckeyes Battle Cry.

Drive! Drive on down the field,
Men of the scarlet and gray;
Don't let them through the line,
We have to win this game today,
Come on, Ohio!
Smash through to victory.
We cheer you as you go:
Our honor defend
So we'll fight to the end for
O-hi-o.

As excited as we always are to see the start of the football season, we are even MORE excited to see the start of the Big 10 portion of the schedule. This Saturday's game against Michigan State kicked everything off for the Buckeyes, so we got our game day fare ready...

But, wah wah waaaaaaaah... Sadly, Sloopy couldn't hang on and the Buckeyes lost 10-7 to the Spartans (their first lost to MSU in over a decade). We knew that this season following the scandal would be rough (and getting rougher), but it is still disappointing to start the Big 10 schedule with a loss. We'll still keep cheering though, and hopefully, finish the season much stronger. After all, we need to start replenishing our stock of gold pants!
