Anyone going to this game?

I'll be there.

Goal for this game needs to be stay focused and don't get injured.

Ohio State always gets everyone's best shot. 

With THE GAME looming, OSU will likely overlook Illinois, and use this as an extra week with which to prepare for That Team Up North. 

So this is the ultimate trap game. 

Those Illini players are gonna want to get their grubby little hands on that wooden turtle.

the last time I predicted an OSU bloodbath they lost by 31.

I just hope they work on some straight RB runs again this week and the passing game.

and I'm praying Borland starts at MLB with Worley on one side and Harrison or Baker on the other side.

I debated going to the game, but I'm going to Indy in a few weeks, i'll just save some $ for that.

I also predicted a drubbing out in Iowa city. A lot of people ate humble pie that afternoon.

The lesson for you B1G East fans is to never assume an easy victory in Iowa City.

Quite the opposite. Any visiting team win there is to be cherished - not expected. This century, Iowa has a losing record at home to only OSU, UW and Nebraska in conference.

I posted that early last week. It was in response to a couple of comments made prior. That's all.
