The Silver Bullet: Father & Son Bias on the Buckeyes
 

#3 Texas Longhorns (11-1) vs. #10 Ohio State Buckeyes (10-2)


The Buckeyes are making yet another appearance in Glendale, Arizona to play in the Fiesta Bowl. On January 5th, Tressel and company are slotted to play a very talented Texas team (11-1). Under Tressel the Buckeyes have made three appearances in the Fiesta Bowl (3-0), and have also played in Glendale in the National Championship loss to Florida.

Unlike in years past, the Buckeyes will playing the role of the underdog. Many believe the Longhorns are the best team in the country, and it will be interesting to see how they respond to being left out of the National Championship Game. Regardless, the Buckeyes have their work cut out for themselves if they want to come away with a victory on January 5th!

More to come later this week. In the mean time, here are a few links:
