They can't be seriously thinking that. The chance of Ohio St. winning is slim; the chance of them "obliterating" Bama is zero. Bama is better than the Buckeyes; they know it, we know it; it will take turnovers or flukes for them to win.
I've been getting text and Facebook post all day from my family and friends in Ohio, some whom I haven't heard from in years. They didn't start with, "how have you been" or other cordial greetings, just straight up "we're going to obliterate you hillbillies!" So here's to hoping the squad has the cleats laced up for a very thorough curb stomping.
