	Now I wouldn't call the Gamecocks a premier team, but even they are undefeated against the Buckeyes in bowl games, beating them in back to back Outback Bowls in 2001 and 2002. The best part about it is that in 2001, when Carolina's 1,000 yard rusher, Derek Watson, was out due to injury.....in comes Ryan Brewer, a former Mr. Football in the State of Ohio who was spurned by Ohio State. He collects 109 yards rushing, 92 yards receiving, and scores 3 TDs. That, my friends, is called payback!!

	I remember that. I live in Covington, Ohio; and that is 10 min. away from Troy, Ohio where Ryan Brewer was from and that was a big deal around here. He tore it up in that game, and that one game is the game that caused John Cooper to lose his job... err wait; it was actually Brewer himself that caused the firing of Cooper. Love it...

	Yes it's true that the Buckeyes lost in the NC game the last two years and that's a mjor disappointment. However really that has nothing to do with this season. If OSU can beat USC and remain unbeaten in the Big-10 they will be back and maybe will win this time! It's very doubtful LSU will return and unlikely Florida will return to the NC game this season. The Gamecocks - hey great victories in the Outback Bowl. Have they ever played an NC game?

	I would rather not go to a NC game in my college career rather than go to one and lose big time, not to mention two years in a row? I will keep my dignity sorry, It is just because of the weak conference schedule. Even the non-conference games are below par next to USC and Texas. Imagine if they would have played either of them in week 8 rather than week 2 or 3. It wouldn't be pretty on OSU's part because that is when USC hit there stride last year about that time. I think you will take them in week 3, but If you do lose that game and go undefeated the rest of the year and there is another team with a one lose season assuming that one goes undefeated; OSU would be out sorry.

	I am not a Gamecocks fan in the slightest regards. I just don't like Ohio State. Besides whether you like it or not Ryan Brewer was the "only" reason that John Cooper was fired. Alright maybe not the only reason, but definitely the deciding factor. I just love how somebody who I grew up watching in high school taring apart his favorite school growing up because they thought he was too small to come and play for them. Like I said... Love it.

	Ouch! And to think Lou Holtz was there... wasn't he there after he left ND? That guy got blasted by Ohio State when Eddie George ran over them both times they played and then he gets sweet payback with an Ohio guy rejected by big brother. I feel the pain but I'm not mad since Brewer tore it up we got rid of Coop and got Tressel. A national championship and a few more appearances. Most act like Tressel is a bum and can't win the big one etc. I could care less if the SEC wins every game as long as we beat missagain, meatchicken or the team up north etc. Tress has 4 rings from Youngstown State which had a ridicoulus playoff system...I mean one year they were 14-2 and won a national title. He also got his one for the thumb in 2002. To say or think because we lose to SEC schools and that we are scrubs is unreal and some people need to check into their local hospital for some drug screening/dependency issues. But thank you Ryan Brewer....haleluya!!! I hope your doing well in arena football or the CFL or bagging groceries at Walmart or whereever you may be because you brought the mighty OSU to its knees baby! Good for you! And what did the lowly OSU get Hmmmm.... "In Tressel we trust!" God bless him and gods speed to him Chant it with me!!! MVP MVP Brewer and power house South Carolina ...man what would have happened had they three peated against the scrubs at OSU? We may have found a way to resurrect Woody Hayes had they three peated. Damm it!

	Ryan Brewer was good but not that good. Go 2-10-1 against rival Meatchicken probably had more to do with OSU firing CFB Hall Of Fame Coach John Cooper...but then again I'm no expert. But if that is the take by the majority ; That it was all Ryan Brewer then good on him cause we got Tress now and at least he has gotten us to some national Championship games that coop never did as well as thump Missagain. I'm thinking is it 4 in a row and going on 5?

	I never said OSU was scrubs, I was just stating that your conference is full of a bunch of scrubs. OSU usually puts out good NFL caliber players that tend to have success. I think the only reason that you beat Michigan every year was due to the coach. Now that he is gone you better keep a better eye on them. I am not of big fan of Rich Rodriguez because he is a system coach just like Urban Meyer, but just the change period will cause some better things going on up there compared to what they have been like.
