[NEONRye at aol.com]

Not sure if Coach Roy posted this or not, but CBSSPORTSLINE.com has the  
following bowl predictions posted "as of Oct. 7":

Sadly, at this point NU is not forecast to be in a bowl game, as these  are 
the predictions:
 
Rose--tOSU
Cap One--Illini
Outback--Bucky
Alamo--Joe Pa
Champs--Wolverines
Motor City--Hoosiers
 
On the outside looking in, along with our beloved 'Cats, is, of  course, 
Sparty.  As I ponder this, I have come to the reluctant, but  necessary, 
conclusion that I must root for Tressel's gang to win out the rest of  the season, and 
hope that either CAL or LSU lose at least one game along the  way, so that the 
Buckeyes end up garnering an invitation to BCS  Championship Game, thereby 
opening up a 7th Big Ten bowl slot which  hopefully we can snag, rather than 
MSU.  As I have consistently stated over  the years, I hate Ohio State more than 
any other team, but I have seen the  light, and from now on, at least in 2007, 
my new motto is "Go Bucks!".  
 
Anybody else want to join me?:-)
