<p>Your predictions suck. I gave my prediction in another forum but here it is: OSU 34 Whore 20. Bank on it! The score will not be indicative of how good Ohio State truly is.</p>
<p>BTW: I will be down in Columbus for this game, and I heard there is going to be a cop on EVERY SINGLE STREET CORNER! My prediction, there still will be record riots. LOL</p>
<p>I have to listen to D talk about going to “The Game” up in Cambridge.</p>
<p>I keep telling her there is only one true “The Game” and it will be played in Columbus at 3:30, not in Cambridge at noon, or whatever.</p>
<p>Hail to the Victors, valiant!</p>
<p>Hail to the Conquering Heroes!</p>
<p>Hail! Hail! to Michigan the leaders and best.</p>
<p>Hail to the Victors, valiant!</p>

<p>Hail! to the conqu’ring heroes</p>
<p>Hail, hail to MIchigan, the champions of the West!</p>
<p>Hail! Hail! To Michigan the champions of the West!</p>
<p>LOL I guess we did a duet, garland</p>
<p>Sing to the colors that float in the light;
Hurrah for the Yellow and Blue!
Yellow the stars as they ride through the night
And reel in a rollicking crew;
Yellow the field where ripens the grain
And yellow the moon on the harvest wain;
-Hail!
Hail to the colors that float in the light
Hurrah for the Yellow and Blue! </p>
<p>The only lines I ever knew were
(i) Hail!
(ii) Hurrah for the Yellow and Blue!</p>
<p>Sorry, I have been gone for over 30 years, but I still love that school. Someday, maybe my youngest will attend.</p>
<p>Both of mine were accepted and turned it down, to the anguish of both parents, :(</p>
<p>Oldest never applied, middle was accepted but went elsewhere.</p>
<p>I have no one to visit on football Saturdays.</p>
<p>You can all come visit me.</p>
<p>Double legacy S. deferred for six months then given the axe in April, but GoBlueAlumDad and I haven’t given up hope! D. is a HS sophomore, has the requisite stats going thus far, and is VERY interested in the U. Keeping our fingers crossed since we have four season tickets on the 30. Speaking of which, we could have made a fortune on eBay with that hot little commodity if only the game was at the Big House this year. ;)</p>
<p>Hoedown, luckily we have friends in the area, so I do get out there sometimes, but thanks for the lovely offer.</p>
<p>there is even a park in AA named after my SIL, so we have permanent ties to the town!</p>
<p>OK, pardon me while I take a short deviation from the OP, but now that I know that there are at least two people here who are privileged to go to the games, I want to vent my pet peeve: What’s with the jingling of keys during crucial points of the game? Is that supposed to lull the opponents into a deep sleep with their melodic sound? Why not bring in a cow bell or at least put both hands to your mouth and YELL? The Big House is architecturally deficient in not holding sound in, why make matters worse by just jingling keys?</p>
<p>OK, I feel better … now, back to the Meeeechigan love fest.</p>
<p>FF–“key play” Get it, get it? I LOVED doing that back in the day–course, I had no idea what was going on. I’m much better at following football now; back then I sold my ND, OSU, and MSU tickets for food money.</p>
<p>Sorry, but the whole point of being the home team is to make NOISE - not display symbolism. I don’t recall jingling keys when I was a student. If we didn’t come home so horse that we couldn’t speak until the next day, we didn’t do our jobs … or we had played one of the “I” schools (i.e., 42-0).</p>
<p>My favorite memory of the OSU game was the game that Woody Hayes tore up the yard markers and threw them out on the field. We went crazy in the stands.</p>
<p>ff…LOL!!! We jiggled keys back when I was a student for the “key” plays so I wonder when that actually got started???</p>
