I was just about to post something similar. For a long stretch, they 
didn't even talk about the game, but talked about Frank, Nebraska, Ohio U, 
and the same stuff we've re-hashed about four million times. 

What do we expect? Frank is a winner. Callahan, at least to this point 
isn't. 

Winners get forgiven for just about everything. Look at Lou Holtz. He left 
Minnesota, Notre Dame, and South Carolina with NCAA violations. In all 
cases, he "didn't know those things were happening". Yet he gets paid 
large amounts for motivational speaking about achievement, being in 
control, yada yada. He's now doing college football analysis on ESPN. He 
gets these things because he's a "winner". 

Ohio is behind 17-14 with Toledo on Ohio's 12.
