Picking up the piecesWell, that didn’t go the way I would have liked.This is sure to be light on links, as there aren’t too many articles I’d like to read again myself. A few stray observations while attempting to avoid anything too heavy:
Beanie will begin the season with a nice cushion in the Heisman race. [...]
Game Day
Herbie and Eddie celebrate on the sidelines of the last OSU National Championship Game that counted
What more can be said? I tried to dig up a rousing Youtube clip but couldn’t find any that seemed appropriate for this afternoon. The death metal soundtrack that typically accompanies these fan compilations isn’t really my cup of [...]
Gameday:
The temptress that is New Orleans did her best to distract us from the reason we came down here, but even hand grenades and hurricanes couldn’t stop the Old Columbus Town reporters from bringing you coverage on the ground. It’s gameday, the game we’ve been preparing for since September, since last January to be honest. [...]
Oh, sleepless nights…
CFN’s Championship unit-by-unit breakdown. Advantage: OSU (6-3)
Gene W.’s view from Sunday.
The Dispatch on Tressel.
A look at OSU’s three BCS Championship squads. Draw your own similarities.
A note to Paul and the boys: Tressel sets curfew for fans.
The crew has landed on Bourbon St.! The above photo, sent by Josh just minutes ago, proves that our roving reporters were indeed headed to the promised land and not Daytona Beach for a weekend of fun in the sun as some of you speculated.

15 minutes after the game: Hoards of fans from the [...]
Paul, Josh and JR taking a breather and waxing philosophical outside of one of those kooky southern emporiums.
The smell continues to worsen as we cruise towards the Mississippi delta but nothing can stop these brave reporters from reaching our destination.
We are currently making good time traveling south down I-65 as Paul Germain is bobbing [...]
Film Study
For anyone who feels so inclined to brush up on his/her SportsCenter…
I agree, Mark Schlabach has all the personality of a used napkin.
More to come…
Truck stops, blue colored grass, CDs under $20:Paul and the crew can only be one place…
Coming to you from the heart of SEC country, Tennesee where everyone drives a pick up truck. We are making great time although we had an extended “pit stop” in a Kentucky truck stop.
We played a little “dear slayer” arcade [...]
Nothing says trouble like three hungry Ohio St. fans, a shiny red (dare I say scarlet?) pick-up truck, Mardi Gras beads and a home-made road trip sign (is there another kind?) “The Road to The Championship” first finds Paul, center, with his two comrades just moments before they left Columbus earlier this afternoon.
No word as [...]
