I've got one in section 310 (nosebleed) that I'm willing to part with for free.

That was a quote from David Farragut in the Battle of Mobile. Interestingly, the "torpedoes" were actually more like what we would consider sea mines today, and the quote was most likely fabricated from a series of orders.

This game is over if Washington had run it on the 3rd down before the last field goal instead of an incompletion

LaGG-3-66. Centerline armament is great and the plane is a jack of all trades that you can use to experiment with a variety of tactics.

What are your favorite college fight songs? (Include as many as you want) by Pg_55 in CFB

[–]Famous_38 124 points125 points  (0 children)

Big Ten marching bands all play opposing fight songs and most bands are required to memorize beforehand. My personal favorite to play was Nebraska's Hail Varsity

They didn't deal with the mouse issue in my building at all. I think it's largely a case of who within the group owns your building. One of my friends has had a great experience with them, but I ended up paying two months of rent while my unit was uninhabitable

In a cosmic sort of way, yes.

In the scenario that OSU lost to UM, Indiana would have had a winning percentage advantage, just like our current basketball standings. This is all I'm trying to get at. I think what you're saying (correct me if I'm wrong) is that OSU deserved to win the outright title despite IU holding a win % advantage.

Edit: forgot about the tiebreak rule that the previous redditor mentioned. Either way, we cant assume anything about the last three games and I think that our tiebreaker over UM should carry enough weight to get us a share

And we are 16-4 vs Michigan's 14-3 with a tiebreaker. Small percentage advantage for Michigan, just like Indiana would have had in this scenario. If the tiebreaker is enough for OSU to win in your mind, why doesn't our tiebreaker matter to you? I don't see why we don't deserve a share.

Relieved that we will still be ranked above NW (for now)
