Urban Meyer To Coach Ohio State????
By: Coop
Many sources claim that the Ohio State Buckeyes have offered Urban Meyer an offer to coach the Buckeyes starting next year. This is not confirmed, and last week Meyer said that "there is not truth to that" and that he had not been offered or accepted any deal with anybody.
Although, many sources, including ESPN say that an offer will be sent concluding the regular season.
Also, it is said that if Meyer comes to Ohio State, he will hire former Buckeye, Chris Spielman as a defense coach, and hire another former Buckeye, Kirk Herbstreit as an assistant coach.
But once again, none of this is confirmed.

Basketball Starts TODAY!
By: Coop
3 of the 4 SWO Sports teams start their regular seasons today, that being #2 Kentucky, #3 Ohio State, and #15 Xavier. That's right, all 3 of those teams are ranked, the 4th team being Cincinnati, who are ranked 25th.
Here are my thoughts of all 4 teams 1st games, along with final score predictions.
Kentucky vs. Marist (7 PM ET-FS SOUTH).
Okay, most of you have never even heard of Marist College, well I hadn't either. But, wikipedia just told me that it is a small university located on the east bank of the Hudson River near Poughkeepsie, NY. And we have all heard of Kentucky. This is like David vs. Goliath. Kentucky should absolutly destroy them.
FINAL SCORE PREDICTION:
KENTUCKY: 90 MARIST: 51
Ohio State vs. Wright State (9 PM ET-BIG TEN NETWORK).
This should be a very good game for Ohio State. Wright State is no cupcake team by any means, they are a decent team, but not nearly close to the kind of team the Buckeyes are. Expect Jared Sullinger to have a good game, he is said to be the best player in the nation, he wants to go out there and prove it.
FINAL SCORE PREDICTION:
OHIO STATE: 85 WRIGHT STATE: 69
Xavier vs. Morgan State (7 PM ET-FS OHIO)
Wanna know where Morgan State University is? Well it is in Baltimore. They are a decent team, but not nearly as good as Xavier. Tu Holloway will sit out this game, after being suspended for this game only by the NCAA. That shouldn't matter at all. X has the guys to pick him up, such as Mark Lyons, Kenny Frease, and Freshman, Dez Wells.
FINAL SCORE PREDICTION:
XAVIER: 80 MORGAN STATE: 64
Cincinnati vs. Alabama State (SUNDAY, 7 PM ET-FS OHIO).
Yancy Gates and the Bearcats are coming off a great season a year ago, this season could be even better. They have a lot of talent and should be able to take down Bama State fairly easily. That's all I need to say.
FINAL SCORE PREDICTION:
CINCINNATI: 88 ALABAMA STATE: 54

Bearcats Remain Undefeated In Big East Play, Beat Pitt
 |
| Isaiah Pead sings the UC fight song in the Cincy fan section after beating Pitt |
Last year's game between Cincinnati and Pitt was not something Bearcat fans want to remember. 28-10 was the final score. As Zach Collaros recalls "they were singing their fight song outside of our locker room". The Bearcats were ready to get revenge.
If the 'Cats did indeed get revenge, they would gain control of the Big East, and improve to 7-1, and 3-0 in the Big East.
Well UC won, 26-23. Here is a scoring summary:
| FIRST QUARTER | CIN | PITT | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
 | FG | 13:28 | Tony Miliano 27 Yd | 3 | 0 |
 | FG | 09:48 | Kevin Harper 52 Yd | 3 | 3 |
| FG | 07:23 | Tony Miliano 40 Yd | 6 | 3 |
| SECOND QUARTER | CIN | PITT | |||
| FG | 11:00 | Kevin Harper 24 Yd | 6 | 6 |
| TD | 10:35 | Tino Sunseri 4 Yd Run (Kevin Harper Kick) | 6 | 13 |
| TD | 05:45 | Zach Collaros 7 Yd Run (Tony Miliano Kick) | 13 | 13 |
| FG | 01:08 | Kevin Harper 42 Yd | 13 | 16 |
| THIRD QUARTER | CIN | PITT | |||
| TD | 13:21 | Hubie Graham 4 Yd Pass From Tino Sunseri (Kevin Harper Kick) | 13 | 23 |
| FG | 03:57 | Tony Miliano 32 Yd | 16 | 23 |
| TD | 01:48 | Zach Collaros 3 Yd Run (Tony Miliano Kick) | 23 | 23 |
| FOURTH QUARTER | CIN | PITT | |||
| FG | 14:49 | Tony Miliano 41 Yd | 26 | 23 |
Zach Collaros did good, as he 19/32, good for 214 yards, he did throw two picks though.
Pead had 22 carries, good for 118 yards.
Maxwell Smith Shines In First Start
LEXINGTON, Ky. -- Maxwell Smith threw for 283 yards and the go-ahead touchdown in the fourth quarter as Kentucky beat Mississippi 30-13 on Saturday for the Wildcats' first Southeastern Conference win in nearly a year.
Smith, a freshman, was forced to start because of an injury Morgan Newtonsustained last Saturday against Mississippi State, and he was steady in his first career start. He had 128 yards passing at halftime, but Kentucky couldn't quite reach the red zone.
The Wildcats had four drives in the first half that ended between the Ole Miss 30-yard line and the 50; one ended in a 48-yard field goal, one ended in a missed field goal and two ended in punts.
But Kentucky offensive coordinator Randy Sanders opened up the playbook in the second half to the deep passes. Smith's 38-yard touchdown pass to La'Rod King gave the Wildcats (4-5, 1-4) a 16-13 lead with 12:22 left.
That pass marked the latest Kentucky had held a lead in any SEC game since a 38-20 win over Vanderbilt on Nov. 13, 2010.
After forcing the Rebels (2-7, 0-6) into two punts, Smith put the game out of reach with a 56-yard pass to King that set up an 8-yard touchdown throw to Gene McCaskill.
Ole Miss held an early 6-0 lead after getting into the red zone twice but coming away with field goals both times. The Rebels finished with 195 rushing yards but were consistently pinned back in their own territory by Kentucky punter Ryan Tydlacka.
CoShik Williams had 111 yards rushing and two touchdowns for the Wildcats.
