Let's all be on record.

I say Bobcats 21-17.

Hoping for more/better but that's what I feel now.

The line has moved from -17 to -14.5. I think we cover only if the seniors show up on Senior Day and actually want to play. I am not confident that they will. I think we win, but it's closer than it should be.

I know Jeff McKinney, and you, sir, are no Jeff McKinney.

Nice impression, though!

OHIO 5- UMASS 4, byline Athens, OH

In Tom McCabe's triumphant return to officiating, UMASS opens the scoring when they sack Tyler Tettleton at the UMASS twenty-five yard line as he misses Beau Blankenship with a failed hand off on OHIO's most predictable and infamous "Hey Diddle Diddle, Beau Up the Middle" play, and McCabe mistakenly calls the play a safety as he had fallen head over tea kettle and lost his bearings on the field of play.

In the third quarter, after a Josiah Yazdani 17 yard field goal, with OHIO having kicked a field goal on first and goal from the one inch line, OHIO is called for two one point penalties on two successive drives as McCabe throws flags for the newly instituted "Tettletoning" penalty.

In an emergency session of the NCAA rules committee on Wednesday, November 27th, a penalty was created by the committee to preserve the integrity of the game by penalizing quarterbacks for sitting on the field under pass rush.  These are the first two cases of Tettletoning being called in live action.

To cap the scoring in the fourth quarter, and in an attempt to put the Minutemen up by four with two minutes remaining in the game, Charley Molnar attempts a seventy yard field goal which falls thirty yards short of the end zone, and the ball is picked up by OHIO's Matt Morton, who playing his first game for the Green and White, returns the ball seventy yards and is awarded a two point conversion by McCabe, solidifying the victory for the Cats.

In the post game press conference, it is noted by MAC Director of Officials that the the return for conversion should have been awarded six points, and McCabe is immediately put to death by firing squad in front of the Ohio University graffiti wall, which is promoting Alpha Delta Pi's upcoming bake sale.

As a result of the victory, OHIO earns a spot in the Poinsettia Bowl on December 26th in San Diego, CA, where Certified Pigskin Analyst Monroe Slavin will be provided an opportunity to give OHIO's coaching staff and outgoing seniors the business up close and personal.

ROTFL!  This is good stuff.  I haven't laughed this hard in at least a few weeks.  Thanks for the chuckles.  If this isn't the most creative board in the whole wide world of sports I don't know what it would be.  Carry on, gentlemen and ladies.  Carry on!

Ohio wins it, 35-17. For one, having 10 days off and playing on Friday instead of Tuesday will help set their minds right for football. Also, even though Kent State had a bad record, they still had Archer and some pretty good athletes. I don't believe UMass has the athletes KSU had. I think UMass is comparable to Eastern Michigan or Miami and we beat those teams badly. Finally, I really want to see Tyler Tettleton light it up, whether with arms, legs or both in order to at least dull our recent memories of him and help us to put his full body of work into perspective instead of the last several games.

At the Poinsettia Bowl Monroe finds himself seated next to Mickey and Sylvia some other Ohio fans. Monroe introduces himself as the "biggest Ohio guy around" and Sylvia recognizes him immediately. She smiles politely and commences slapping Monroe . Mickey does his best to help Monroe, but, she can't be stopped until TT arrives to help calm his mom. Monroe is severely shaken. TT, very sorry for his mom's behavior, offers to let Monroe call the game's first play. Monroe, still groggy and shaken can only think to say "B,B,Beau up the middle." Well, it was going to be"Black 41 Flash Reverse Pass," but, TT convinces Albin to change it for Monroe. TT asks the team to run this one for Monroe who all the players know and love. For Monroe they block like never before and Beau goes 80 yards for a TD. Solich resolves that in Monroe's honor Ohio will begin every game "up the middle."

I just had to wipe a tear from my eye… And yes that was a tear resulting from laughter….  Very nice my friend….

My only fear is that I will be sitting next to one of the parents during the game this week.  Hopefully the Senior parents are invited to view the game from inside Peden Towers...

Reminds me of the time we were player YSU in Peden.  The Penguin players were the dirtiest that I'd ever seen.  On one particularly dirty play (something like a fist to the ribs after a tackle, missed by the refs) I yelled out about how dirty they were playing and how this team was a bunch of hoodlums masquerading as a football team (or words to that effect), and the guy in front of me stood up, turned around, and said he was the father of one of the YSU players. I think he would be punched me, if the my friend in the next seat hadn't intervened.  I think my friend said something about how he was a lawyer and hadn't had an assault and battery case for awhile!

Edit: I've never feared meeting OHIO parents, though.

No, sir. TT gets a 50 yard safety, but Tom McCabe awards the points to Ohio as a make-up call, then announces that by rule the safety isn't reviewable.
