I was stephanie from Cincy; I posted the Deion Sanders comment. I had to change ID's when I got booted one time.

Hey, I don't know if you've gotten a chance but I have a slideshow that I think is worth a look. It's my ranking of the top rivalries in college football. Hope you enjoy.
http://bleacherreport.com/articles/251161-hate-is-not-enough-the-top-five-rivalries-in-college-football

It includes a very deep insight into OSU-UM, which I think will be a great thing for Buckeye fans to check out.

Hey!

Would you mind checking out my latest article? It talks about the 2009 super sophomores for the Ohio State buckeyes! If you're not a buckeye fan, it's an interesting read and you could extend you're knowledge on college football. Thanks!
