OSU FOOTBALL: OHIO STATE 26, OHIO UNIVERSITY 12 (9/6/08)
The Buckeyes have never lost to an in-state rival. In fact, the last time Ohio State faced Ohio University in 1999 it was a runaway victory. But that was the Bobcats of old. The 2008 version gave the Buckeyes a scare, at one point leading 14-12 before OSU rallied to pull out a 26-14 win heading to Southern California next week to face the mighty Trojans. The offense once again looked so-so while the defense allowed Ohio University over 100 yards rushing, but created four turnovers on interceptions, leading to a field goal and a rushing TD.
