I have a different reason for disliking Ohio State than I do our other rivals and conference foes. Because, invariably whatever athletic store I go into looking for a new Illini lid….I see a wall that looks something like the pic below….

I took the kids to the Wisc. Dells this last summer on a short getaway. Mind you I am in the heart of Bo Ryan Country…And there was ZERO…ANYTHING but Ohio State…not even Wisconsin stuff!! Zero! There was hardly any Milwaukee, Bucks stuff and they had just one the BIG one!! I couldn’t believe it…

It was like 4:1 Buckeyes to Bucks! Insane.
There was of course a few scattered Michigan hats wouldn’t ya know…almost as many as Milwaukee Bucks caps. Swear.

Yeah, it’s because of Ohio State football…blah, blah, and their rivalry with Michigan
Blah blah…but it ain’t like Ohio State is Alabama or something.

It’s like the 80s when there was Georgetown and Notre Dame crap everywhere. It irks me the reach that Ohio State and Michigan have nationally. I don’t get it. (Especially Michigan they’re overrated in both sports.)

Silly Rant…over

You could just take that to mean all the cool schools like Illinois- hats were bought up already. Nobody wants to buy those nasty buckeye hats

Cabbage nothing...I have to react to the "Arbor Mist Peach Moscato Wine"!?? You're in Kentucky for petes sake, pour that stuff out on the lawn and get yourself a small batch bourbon.

At least he’s not having Ann Arbor Mist Peach Moscato Wine!

Rumor has it Hunter Dickinson’s mom drank that stuff while he was in utero, causing him to be born with, shall we say, an unorthodox gate at speeds greater than one mile-per-hour. Even worse, she named him “Hunter.”

Belo is "doo" for a breakout game. Kofi gets 10+ FTs. Plummer hits 3 first-half 3's. Contain who BU called the "stud freshman."

Illini: 79
tOSU: 68

Super interested in seeing if Trent can shut down Branham and how Belo handles him if/when they match up. He's been scoring as good as anyone as of late.

If EJ plays I wonder if OSU throws another big out there. I will say I think EJ has handled Kofi about as well as you can and has taken it to him offensively.

Would love to see another 3 pt explosion.

My wife is an immigrant but lived in Michigan prior to our meeting and marriage. I made it very clear there would be NO rooting for Michigan in our house. (she let me win this argument, which makes one for 36 years lol) She has a Michigan coffee cup that she is only allowed to use when no Illinois sports are in action.

Belo has no business trying to guard Brenham and for the love of all that is holy let's not see Plummer in that role.

Branham is 6’5” - I would rather not see Belo or Plum matched up with him too often.

Yes, Branham vs Frazier is must-see TV.
I hope his sleep tonight after the game is plagued by trentmares…

In an ideal world, yes…But like I said the cheesehead clerks told me they didn’t keep ‘em in stock. You can’t sell what you don’t have.

Nice selection, I enjoy all of those. Love bourbon and scotch both. Unfortunately for my waistline, I am fond of most forms of alcohol. Anyone remember the original Jack Daniels Green label? That is basically now regular black label Jack Daniels, which used to be 90 proof, then dropped to 86, and is now a measley 80 proof.

Nothing wrong with any kind of Crown Royal, good stuff. Anyone ever try Bruichladdich Yellow Submarine? If you like scotch and can find it, you won't be disappointed. I bought two cases fifteen year ago. I could sell what is left for a huge profit but how long have I got so who cares lol.

That was an historic episode. It's ironic that one of the best characters on that show was named "Hawkeye."

Loved Henry. I also remember the episode where he had his way with the former Ohio State cheerlead
