Actually I felt like the second half was more of a beat-down. In the first half Ohio had the advantage of a 6-1 turnover differential, so their lead was not surprising. In the second half, though, Ohio turned the ball over once, while Marshall didn't turn it over at all, yet despite not trying very hard to score, and despite losing the second half turnover battle, Ohio won the second half 10-0.


What a  great observation!  I wonder how many of us were looking at the second half, "waiting for the other shoe to drop"? 
I know that my personal challenge is going to be to enjoy the season while fighting off the feeling of "impending doom" that I know will build with each win.
I am enjoying this one, though!  Ring that bell fellas!

Go Cats!

As for that "article" from the Herald Dispatch, we should also, to borrow the words of the author, "consider the source": Chuck Landon wrote the article. Unbearable in victory, insufferable in defeat. An absolute jerk who has no respect whatsoever for Ohio University.
+100, he is an absolute tool!

I enjoyed this article from Huntington. Apparently the Marshall loss was not in any way related to the performance of Ohio, who is just some MAC team, and "not Ohio State", and the only reason Marshall lost is that they were flat.


Well, all I can say is that while Chuck was a student when I was at Marshall, as best I can remember, he never actually took a class from me.  So you've got to blame someone else for his journalistic expertise. 

[Let me add, so as to set the record straight, that he did take over and do an admirable job as sports editor of The Parthenon when Jeff Nathan was killed in the crash.  He was, however, just as bullheaded and obtuse then as he is now.]
