for all the "weak conference" answers, are you all just a little bitter about your USC?

Pretty good team. The fans are still more loathesome than the putrid slime that clings to the walls of hell. FYI when has Purdue ever been the benchmark of a good college football team?

I've always loved OSU, but I think that this year is especially impressive due to all of the relatively new starters.
I've never understood why fans from other teams feel the need to say things like "they don't play anybody good" or "the fan are classless". The fact is, they do play some highly competitive teams. It's just that sometimes they make wins look a lot easier than it would seem if another team were playing. They have a great deal of passion and drive and it shows in their results. That's not to say that they (just like everyone else) don't play some so called "easy teams". But lets face it, lately we're seeing what these "easy teams" can do to highly ranked teams. So they should never be taken lightly.
As for the "classless" comments. I'm going to just chalk that one up to sour grapes. There are classless fans on every team in every sport, but they are the minority (They're just normally louder than the masses of classy fans). To judge a whole organization because of the comments of a few people is ridiculous. Buckeye fans (just like any other fans) love their team and they support them wholeheartedly. This is a good thing.

Some one asked earlier this year what it would take for Ohio State to be in the national championship picture. I answered that they would have to run the table and a slew of teams above them lose......I didn't think it would happen one week into October though.
Defense looks great. Offense looks capable. Beanie Wells needs to be healthy. Now "THE" fans need to hope for a Cal (maybe) or LSU (probably not) loss. This is a strange season. I can't wait for next week. This is the greatest college football season i can remember.

They're pretty good. Nice win against a decent Purdue team who I thought would give them fits. Considering how this season's gone so far....who knows where they could finish?
They could be playing in New Orleans, Pasadena...or Orlando. It's just too hard to tell, especially in the Big 10.

I would actually consider them major contenders. Not like it is anything new to you Buckeye fans. You need Cal to stumble somewhere though. Well, that or LSU, but i think Cal has a better shot of falling than the Tigers.

I think the polls come out tomorrow with them ranked #2 or #3. Best "D" I've seen all year. Just about the opposite of their makeup last year when the D was young and the O was powerhouse.

Hate em and always will. they could never lose a game again and i will never like em. Some of the most classless fans i have ever met out of all the Big Ten. I have visited most big ten stadiums and only once i was told to go F myself and guess where that was? wow, you really need to get a life!

Buckeyes are doing well under the radar this year. Probably very under-rated. They are much better than people think. Watch out LSU!!!
GO BUCKS!!!!

i think they would get destroyed by LSU just like they did against Florida last season they play in a weak conference and they are still not that good of a team
