Let me take a moment to say....


Thank God I'm a Buckeye!

News from around the net:

MSNBC:
Wells carries No. 7 Ohio State past Michigan

Jim Tressel got the best of Lloyd Carr again, maybe for the last time.

Tressel became the first Ohio State coach to beat Michigan six times in seven years, and the seventh-ranked Buckeyes’ 14-3 victory Saturday over their archrival gave them consecutive outright Big Ten titles for the first time in a half-century.

Chris Wells ran for a career-high 222 yards and two touchdowns and Vernon Gholston and the Buckeyes’ defense dominated Michigan’s banged-up offense....


Detroit News:

Buckeyes shut down Wolverines in what could be Carr's final home game

This was not the way Michigan's seniors wanted to leave, and it certainly could not have been the way the Wolverines wanted to send off Lloyd Carr, who may have coached his final game at Michigan Stadium.

Carr, Michigan's head coach the last 13 seasons, has scheduled a 10 a.m. news conference Monday at which he will discuss his future, sources told The News.

Michigan lost its fourth straight to Ohio State, which claimed the Big Ten title outright with a 14-3 victory before the second-largest crowd at Michigan Stadium on Saturday. Michigan has not lost four in a row in this series since 1960-1963....

Sports Network:

Buckeyes dominate at the Big House to capture Big Ten crown

Chris Wells ran for a career-high 222 yards and a pair of touchdowns, leading seventh-ranked Ohio State to a 14-3 victory over No. 23 Michigan in the latest edition of the storied rivalry between the Big Ten powers.

Wells scored on a one-yard run in the second quarter and added a 62-yard jaunt for a touchdown in the third. He carried 39 times and eclipsed the 200-yard mark for the second time this season.....


Congratulations, Coach Tressel and the Buckeye football team!
