One of the more under appreciated pleasures of my sports fanhood is seeing OSU fans try to cope with the existential crisis of losing a football game, especially early in the season. 

 

I hope some of them are late for work Monday morning because they had to wait for a line of ducks to cross the road in front of them. 

Well Bucknut fans took to the net in droves after the loss.  One thing they all seem to agree on is that their defense sucks.  Both scheme wise and personnel wise.

Oh really? How come

Got hurt early yesterday against UConn. Lower leg injury. Makes the Sampson James waiver that much more interesting. Luckily Dylan Downing (Carmel kid who transferred from UNLV) has looked solid and Doerue is pretty decent too.

This is hilarious. Almost sounds like an Onion story. "Drum won't fit in Notre Dame Stadium"

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Purdue's All-American Marching Band will be without The World's Largest Drum Saturday.

The legendary drum can't fit into Notre Dame Stadium, Indianapolis Star columnist Gregg Doyel reported Thursday. 

For the first time in 42 years — since the Carter administration — Purdue University's All-American Marching Band won't perform Saturday at halftime with The Drum, which weighs a quarter of a ton and stands at 10 feet tall. 

"According to a communication from the University of Notre Dame, our Band will not be permitted to take the World's Largest Drum through their tunnel and onto the football field for this Saturday's game," said Aaron Yoder, a spokesman for the university's bands and orchestras, to ESPN.com.

"Notre Dame Athletics has restricted use of their main tunnel to their own football team and band, which is the only entrance large enough for the Drum. We have been told that visiting teams and bands have to use a separate tunnel that is much smaller. Our Drum is about 10 feet tall on its carriage and 565 pounds so it doesn't even come close to fitting in this other tunnel."

Not a good look for the University of Notre Dame.  Pretty shi**y look actually IMO.

I love it, screw Turdue. I wish you would see more of things like this in sports, a little gamesmanship that doesn't go overboard. The only thing that would make it better is if it was IU instead of the Irish. 😀
