Saturday’s biggest game arrives
Will football’s underdog survive?
Top-ranked team looking much too strong
Winless team plays losing theme song
Jack-rabbit offense can’t wait long
Slow-moving turtle plods along
Favored team feeling discomfort
Score remains too close for comfort
Game’s undecided final score
Which team will nail victory’s door?
Gridiron classic’s final big play
Winning touchdown fulfills doomsday
Upset scoring with eager hands
Sending shockwaves across this land
Giant’s beanstalk crashes to earth
New winning streak’s star bursting birth
Hearts back-filling with dark despair
Champion no longer game’s bear
Number “One” ranking bites the dust
Closing winning drive comes up bust
Long live football’s newest kingpin
Ending score etched on game’s pigskin

Big games today. Since you have “Buckeye” in your moniker, you might be a college football fan. I am a Michigan fan, so, I say this in the spirit of competition – May the best team win and Go Blue! It’s gonna be a good game.

Kev, thanks for sharing your support for the Wolverines. My roots are in Montana (Montana State Bobcats), but my wife has assimilated me into a Buckeyes’ fan. Congratulations to Michigan. Their big plays on offense and key defensive stops on third down turned the tide.

I was thinking of you when I saw the Buckeyes on yesterday.

Crystal, thanks for thinking of me. While I am Montana State Bobcat through and through, I cheer for the Buckeyes every fall as well. My wife is a very dedicated Ohio State fan. As I tell her often after a disappointing game, the sun will always rise the next morning.
