Tressel..."Well, we have an high octane defense".

Great comeback
Eh, that's more of avoiding the question. Should have mentioned something about his insanely good defense.

Also, up until the past few games saying OSU had a high octane offense was a lie.

Now, Tressel and Pryor have pulled their heads out of their respective asses in hindsight, but to answer that question before the game should have been focused on their insane D.

Maybe you're drunk or something, but he did mention something about his defense.

'Well, we have a high octane defense.'

Yep, my drunk ass screwed up. I thought it said OFFENSE under Tressel's quote, which was why I was like "well, that makes about no sense at all, how is that a good comeback?"

Turns out it was a good comeback, haha.

I think it's time to pass out. Thanks for putting me in my place!

Jimmy the Greek was quoted after more than a few cocktails that the reason blacks were better athletes was because back in the slavery days "you put your big black man with your healthy black woman" something similar to that at least.

What you're thinking of was Howard Cosell on Monday night football exclaiming "Look at that little monkey go!" I think it was on a kickoff return but can't be certain, anyway the ball carrier was black and it eventually cost him his job also.

Didn't come from the Vest, but Bollman had a good one at some point with ESPN.
"We may be a pain in the ass again," he said.
Referring to the fact that they only lose 6 total starters from this year's team.
