The 2009 OSU football season comes down to three games. If they win out, they go to Pasadena and represent the Big Ten in the Rose Bowl. A loss this Saturday will put them in the Outback Bowl. Beat PSU and lose to Iowa will put OSU in the Capital One Bowl. The worst case scenario is for them to lose all three and giddy up to San Antonio and play in the Alamo Bowl.

I have to be honest when I say this, but, do we want to see OSU win out and get destroyed by Oregon? The same "Quack Attack" that laid the smack down on Petey and the Trojans? The answer for me is NO!!!! After watching some highlights of that game (because it was blacked out on ESPN2), I feel that Chip Kelly has a killer instinct and that Tressel plays too scared. Kelly learned from the Mike Belotti school of coaching and he has the Ducks on top of the Pac 10 without any other obstacles to go through.

613 yards of total offense (including 393 yards on the ground) got my attention very quick. As talented as Jeremiah Massoli is for Oregon, TP has got the talent to run around the Trojan Defense at any given time. If we had a coach who had a killer instinct, the Buckeyes would be undefeated right now in contention for the National Championship.

The Buckeyes go to Crappy Valley with revenge on their mind and a new Kicker for the rest of the regular season. As expected, Aaron Pettrey will be sidelined with a torn PCL. My best guess it was retribution on the part of NMSU after Pettrey kicked an onside kick after OSU's first TD in the second quarter.

The weather should be fantastic for the game with the high in the lower 50's. I don't see it being a sunny day for OSU as Pryor will be ineffective passing and causing at least 2 turnovers. The defense will play good but not good enough to win.

Prediction: PSU 17  OSU 13 (Hope I'm wrong)

GO BUCKS!!!
