January 2 - Rose Bowl Blow Out

Although it is 320 days until Ohio State plays michigan, I couldn’t help but comment on the sorry performance michigan gave in the Rose Bowl yesterday.

They stunk it up, losing 32-18 to USC. The score could have been worse.

Much had been said about QB Chad Henne and RB Mike Hart declaring they were not going pro and would return for their senior year. Hart said he wanted to return because he wanted to beat Ohio State. Two thoughts:

1. I believe I speak for all of Buckeye Nation by saying THANK YOU. Hart and Henne are 0-3 against Ohio State. Please, please, come back.

2. Going Pro? In what league? Even the Arena League has standards.

Hart had 17 carries for 47 yards against USC. Hart had also shot off his mouth after the LOSS to OSU. He stated he was unimpressed with the OSU defense. He stated OSU was over-rated. I guess being over-rated is something he should know a lot about.

Incidentally. LLLLLoyd Carr is now 0-6 in bowl games and against Ohio State the last three years. He may want to see if John Cooper needs another member in the Underachiever’s Anonymous Club.
