Ohio prisons
chief: Cut
number of
inmates by
3,000

Bv BETH SERGENT
BSERGENT@MYDAILYSENTINELCOM

COLUMBUS (AP) Ohio's new prisons chief
wants to reduce the number
of inmates in the overcrowded system by 3,000
over three years even as the
system itself forecasts conued record growth.
Officials around the state
need to see that the agency
• is addressing overcrowding, said Ernie Moore,
director of the Department
of Rehabilitation and
Correction, which is why
he set the goal of reducing
the number of prisoners
from 51,000 now to 48,000
by the summer of 20f3.
Overcrowding creates
numerous
problems,
including longer waits for
inmates to eat, higher medical costs and waiting lists
for inmates to participate in
substance abuse programs,
Moore said.
Unless
something
changes, the prison system
could see as many as
55,000 inmates by 2019,
according to figures given
to The Associated Press on
Wednesday. That's about
7,000 above capacity.
A July report fmmd that
hio's probation system is
oo fragmented and the
state cycles too many lowrisk offenders serving short
sentences through the
prison system.
The current number of
inmates is just below the
record of 51 ,273 set in
November 2008. The state
had fewer than 44,000
inmates five years ago.
A bill pending in the
Ohio Senate aims to reduce
the prisons population by
increasing the threshold at
which nonviolent crimes
become felonies.
The bill would also create a system for providing
time-off credit f&lt;t inmates
who participate in prison
programs. And it would
allow the prison to petition
judges for early release for
certain inmates who have
served most of their sen.
nce.

Tropical Storm Karl hits Mexico's Yucatan
CANCUN.
Mexico
(AP)- A strong Tropical
Storm Karl made landfall
on Mexico's Yucatan
Peninsula on Wednesday,
hitting a sparsely populated stretch of Caribbean
coast, while two Category
4 hurricanes roared further
out in the Atlantic.
Karl made landfall
about 30 miles (50 kilometers) up the coast from the
Quintana Roo state capital
of Chetumal, with winds
of about 65 mph ( 100
kph), according to the U.S.
National Hurricane Center
in Miami.

The storm hit about midway between the cruise
ship port of Majahual and
the coastal town ofXcalak.
Violeta Pineda, who ha&lt;;
operated thatch-roof bungalows known as the Hotel
Kabah Na for 13 years,
said waves were rolling
about 25 yards (meters)
onto the beach and eating
away at a stretch of road
that runs along the coast.
"There is a lot of wind,"
said Pineda, whose hotel is
about 5 miles (8 kilometers) south of Majahual.
Electricity went out
briefly around Majahual.

But the town took an
almost-direct hit from
Category 5 Hunicane Dean
in 2007- the third most
powerful Atlantic hurricane
ever to hit land- and "tllis
is nothing in comparison,"
said Pineda.
Karl's center passed close
to the state capital, where
there were reports of heavy
rain and wind, downed trees
and power outages.
The storn1 then moved
inland over tiny rural hamlets and its winds declined
to about 55 mph (90 kph).
Assistant state Public
Safety Secretary Didier

Vazquez said security
forces had taken some
people from coastal towns
to shelters, while others
preferred to ride out the
storm in their homes.
Karl was expected to
quickly weaken into a tropical depression as it slogs
across the flat peninsula
before heading back out
over the Gulf of Mexico.
Once in the Gulf, it is
expected to strengthen into
a hunicane by the end of
the week and threaten the
central Mexican coast.
. Authorities on the
Yucatan warned of heavy

rains but said they saw no
need yet for evacuations.
The storm threw doubt over
the area's celebration of
Mexico's
bicentermial
anniversary of independence from Spain, although
there was no immediate
decision to cancel festivities.
But Mexico issued a
tropical storm watch for the
west coast of the Yucatan
peninsula where the
storm is expected to reenter the Gulf - from
Ciudad del Carmen north to
Celestun.
Meanwhile, on the other

side of the Atlantic,
Hurricane Julia rapidly
intensified into a powerful
Category 4 storm early
Wednesday, and still far
from land, Hunicane Igor's
top winds weakened slightly. Neither posed any
immediate threat to land,
though forecasters said Igor
could hit Bermuda on
Sunday.
Julia had maximum sustained winds of near 135
mph (215 kph). Also far
from land over the
Atlantic, Hurricane Igor's
top winds weakened to
135 mph (215 kph).

expressed "serious concern" about the ban of the

examine trickle
down of rail
rates
NEW YORK (AP)

Congress is taking a closer
look at the growing profits
of the nation·s railroadc; and
the price hikes for their customers that may trickle
down to consumers.
In a, report releac;ed
Wednesday, the Senate
Commerce Committee says
higher rates for rail transportation are putting undue
pressure on customers who
don't have an alternative way
to ship their goods. Those
customers, called captive
shiJ?{Jers, are. mostly electric
utilit:J.es, chemical and agricultural companies. Higher
transportation rates for them
mean higher energy and
ry bills for consumers.
~The report wa'&gt; released
ahead of a hearing on federal
rail policy Wednesday afternoon. The committee, led by
Sen. John D. Rockefeller (DW.Va), said in a statement
that the report's findings suggest that the Staggers Rail
Act of 1980, which gives
allows railroads to charge
some U.S. businesses higher
shipping rates, need'&gt; to be

reformed.
The act, originally
intended to inject profits
into a struggling railroad
induslry, hli:) allowed rails
to charge higher rates to
captive shippers. The committee argues that because
railroads are now financially stable, they shouldn't
charge ce1tain customers
more than others.
The industry's main trade
association argves that the
financial stability of railroads today is proof that the
Staggers Act works.
"It's success and
we're not walking away
from success. There's nothing wrong with the fact that ·
we're finally a healthy
industry," Association of
American Railroads CEO
Ed Hamberger said in an
interview
with
the
Associated Press.
Railroads argue that preventing them from charging
higher rates would stifle
their ability to reinvest in
infrastructure and make
other capital investments to
improve their businesses.
Union Pacific Corp.. the
nation's largest railroad,
says it replaces an average
of one mile of track each
day. Each mile of track
costs about $2 million to
replace.

Festival-goers also will
have the opportunity to
interact with the original
Mothman eyewitnesses on
Saturday. Eye witnesses
scheduled to appear are
Linda Scarberry, Faye
Dewitt and Tom Ury. The
hayrides, a festival favorite,
will take place Saturday
evening at the West
State
Farm
Virginia
Museum. Tickets for the
hayrides, which begin at 7
p.m., can be purchased
throughout the day on
Saturday at the Mothman
Festival information booth.
The Mothman Band also
will perform at the farm
museum
during
the ·
hayrides.
Additional festival entertainment will be provided
by Ernie Brown, a.ka.
'Turtleman." Brown will
showcase his ability to handle giant snapping turtles.
Other activities set to take
place are downtown tram
rides and Mothman TNT
area bus tours. The
Mothman Museum also
will be open on Saturday
from 10 a.m.-10 p.m.
Festival fun will continue
on Sunday with more live

music and guest speakers.
Bands set to perform
Sunday include: Jeremiah
Meadows, noon; Mark
Smith, 1 p.m.; Jesse

He feels the heat when
he talks to female trainer
Dear Dr. Brothers: I'm
in a great football program
at a college near my home.
My teams have always had
male trainers. but this one
has two women on the
staff. The other guys say
they don't feel all that comfortable going to the
women trainers for injuries,
but I don't have a problem
with it. The only thing is
that my teammates are
always making remarks
when I use the female
trainers. So, should I stop
using them or what? I like
the way they really listen to
my issues. - J .T.
·
Dear J.T.: It is easy to
find fault with female trainers in the locker room since it has been a traditionally male stronghold,
the guys probably have a
bias toward keeping it that
way. But female trainers
and reporters have had
access to male domains for
a while now, so it is not
unreasonable to expect the
players to start adjusting,
just as you have. I would
just keep. on using
whichever trainer you are
assigned or choose to go to
when there is an injury or a
physical-therapy issue you
need help with.
You may be interested in
a recent study from North
Carolina State University.
It found that male football
players preferred .male
trainers for both genderspecific and other injuries.
but when it came to psychological issues, there was
no significant preference
for a female or male trainer.
But when it came to treatment for depression, the
players preferred to speak
to a woman counselor perhaps reflecting a need
not to appear as weak to
another male. Old stereotypes die hard, and women
continue to be seen as more
nurturing and c~g. Sine
football players have a
macho image to uphold, it
makes sense that they
might feel Jess willing to
divulge
psychological
'issues to another man. In

any case, remember that all
the trainers are there to help
you achieve your goals and
stay healthy - if they are
all qualified, that's what

really counts.

ting for these people in my
town for about six months. ,
My mom drops me off.
The baby is cute. ancf she is
usually asleep, so it's an
easy job. The couple gets
home late from their parties. and the husband drives
me home, as I don't have
my license yet. Well, last
night the guy was a little
drunk. I think. He kept joking with me about how
pretty I am and how his
wife is getting wrinkles. l
like the job, but this was
awful. What should I do?
-C.B.
Dear C.B.: You have a
couple of issues here, and
it's good that you address
them rather than just saying
"oh well" and going on
with your life and your
baby-sitting job. I know the
work is easy, but you are
beginning to pay a price for
that. No. 1 is the use of
alcohol and driving whily
impaired. You should not
be put in a position where
your life is put in jeopardy
because someone else has
been out drinking and haS
to drive you home. So if
you really want to keep the
job. I suggest getting your·
license or asking your
mother or father or even a
(sober) friend to pick you
up after baby-sitting anq
deliver you home.

Smoking bans help curb kids' severe asthma attacks
ATLANTA (AP) New research shows that
smoking bans spare many
children with asthma from
being hospitalized, a finding that suggests smokefree laws have even
greater health benefits
than previously believed.
Other studies have
charted the decline in
adult heart attack rates
after smoking bans were
adopted. The new study,
conducted in Scotland,
looked at asthma-related
hospitalizations of kids,
which fell 13 percent a
after smoking was
ed in 2006 from workes and public build' including bars and
restaurants.
Before the ban, admissions had been rising 5
percent a year in Scotland,
which has a notoriously
poor health record among
European countries.

I

Earlier U.S. studies, in
Arizona and Kentucky,
reached similar conclusions. But this was the
largest study of its kind and offered the strongest
case that smoking bans
can bring immediate
health improvements for
many people.
"The effects of smokefree laws are way bigger
than you would expect,"
said Stanton Glantz, a
University of CaliforniaSan Francisco researcher
who specializes in the
health effects of smoking.
He was not involved in the
new study, published in
Thursday's New England
Journal of Medicine.
Cigarette smoke is a
trigger for asthma attacks.
So researchers reasoned
that tracking severe cases
was perhaps the best way
to measure a smoking
ban's immediate effect on

children.
"Acute asthma is the tip
of the iceberg," more easily tracked than less severe
breathing problems, ear
infections and other problems seen in children that
have been linked to a caregiver's smoking, said
Terry Pechacek of the
Centers
for
Disease
Control and Prevention's
office on smoking and
health.
About 40 percent of
American children who
go to hospitals because of
asthma attacks live with
smokers - a high proportion, given that only about
21 percent of U.S. adults
smoke, according to CDC
statistics.
Smoking bans have
become increasingly common in the United States,
where 35 states and the
District of Columbia have
laws that bar smoking in

workplaces or restaurants
and bars, or both. And
more than 3,100 cities and
towns have their own
restrictions, according to
the
American
Nonsmokers'
Rights
Foundation.
The push continues:
This week, New York City
Mayor
Michael
Bloomberg announced
city officials will pursue a
broad extension of the
city's smoking ban to
parks, beaches and pedestrian plazas throughout
the city.
Many European countries - including Britain,
France and Germany forbid smoking in all public places. But Italy,
Greece and some others
have been slower to adopt
the bans, sometimes simply limiting smoking in
certain areas.

Washington cracks dowo on abandoned Gulf wells
KENNER, La. (AP) The Obama administration
moved to head off another
catastrophic leak like the
BP disaster Wednesday,
ordering oil and gas companies in the Gulf of
Mexico to plug or dismantle thousands of wells and
platforms no longer in use.
The move came as the
government's point man
for the oil spill said BP's
blown-out well should be
nounced dead by
day.
Washington, Interior
retary Ken Salazar
issued an order requiring
oil and gas companies to
plug nearly 3,500 nonproducing wells and dismantle about 650 production
platforms that are longer
being used.
The threat posed by the
wells was detailed earlier
this summer in an
Associated Press investigation. The Gulf has more
than 27,000 abandoned oil
and gas wells anq more
than 1,200 idle rigs and
platforms, and AP found
that many of the wells
have been ignored for
decades, with no one
checking for leaks.
Michael
Bromwich,
director of the Bureau of
Ocean
Energy
Management, Regulation
and Enforcement, said the
Obama
administration
ckdown was under conration long before the
pwater Horizon explosion.
"As infrastructure continues to age, the risk of
damage increases. That
risk increases substantially
during storm season," he
said.
Under the order, operators must plug wells that
been inactive for the past
five years. Platforms and
pipelines that are not being
used for production or

i

J

exploration
must
be
decommissioned, even if
the leases are still active.
Current federal regulations require idle structures
to be decommissioned a process that involves
plugging wells and dismantling and removing
equipment - within one
year of the lease's expiration date.
Oil and gas producers
have long argued that certain idle platforms, wells
and pipelines are still valuable, because they might
one day be used to support
other wells nearby. Oil
companies have been
reluctant to plug the wells
and remove the infrastructure until the lease expires.
Randall Luthi, president
of the National Ocean
Industries A&amp;sociation, an
offshore drilling group,
welcomed the new order,
which he said had been in
the works for at least two
years.
''Now, as then, the offshore industry is committed to safe operations, both
during and after exploration and production, and
this includes responsible
removal of structures and
plugging of wells;' said
Luthi, a former head of the
Min~rals
Management
Service, the agency that
oversaw offshore drilling
before it was overhauled
and renamed as a result of
the BP disaster.
But he said the Obama
administration "must also
assist in clearing the path
so such operations can be
done quickly, smoothly
and in an environmentally
responsible manner."
Rep. Raul Grijalva, DAriz., who had urged
Salazar to do something
about idle rigs, called the
announcement excellent
news for both the economy
and the environment.

"These structures are not
producing resources or
creating jobs by just sitting
there, and the risk of leaking abandoned rigs is
something we've overlooked long enough," said
Grijalva, chairman of a
House subcommittee on
national parks and public
lands. "This announcement should put thousands
of Gulf laborers back to
work in short order cleaning up the Gulf and opening up new opportunities."
Meanwhile,
retired
Coast Guard Adm. Thad
Allen, the government
official overseeing the crisis in the Gulf, said the
relief well BP h~ been
drilling all summer long
should intersect the ruptured well within 24 hours.
He said mud and cement
will then be pumped in,
sealing the hole once and
for all by Sunday.
"We are within a 96hour window of killing the
well," Allen said nearly
five months after the disaster unfolded with an explosion aboard an offshore
drilling rig April 20 that
killed 11 workers.
No oil has spewed into
the Gulf since a temporary

cap was put on the busted
BP well in mid-July. Mud
and cement were later
pushed down through the
top of the well, allowing
the cap to be removed. The
relief well is being drilled
21/2 miles through dirt and
rock beneath the sea floor
so that the ruptured well
can also be sealed from the
bottom, ensuring it never
causes a problem again.
As of Wednesday morning, crews had only 20 feet
left to drill.
The spill of more than
200 million gallons of oil
led to closer scrutiny of the
thousands of other wells in
the Gulf, stoked anger
toward BP and cost CEO
Tony Hayward his job.
On Wednesday, testifying before a British parliamentary
committee,
Hayward insisted his company had a strong safety
record and was not solely
to blame for the disaster.
But he also acknowledged:
"I understand why people
feel the way they do, and
there is little doubt that the
inability of BP, and the
industry, to intervene to
seal the leak . .. was unacceptable."

Those who wish to buy
prize tickets should do so
before the ride. Prizes up
for grabs include cash, a

When the Dills decided
to start the trail ride 14
years ago, that ftrst ride
raised a little over $2,000
and has continued to
steadily grow without
any official help from
any formal g·r oup or

off the event every year
with the help of neighbors, friends and local
businesses who volunteer
time, effort, food and
door prizes. The Dill's
neighbors also open up
their property to allow
the trail ride to crisscross the hillsides of
Rutland Township. The

Flattened· Bengals defense still stewing
CINCINNATI (AP) Defensive lineman Tank
Johnson
thinks
the
Bengals need an attitude
adjustment.
The Bengals defense
came into the season with
aspirations of moving up
in the rankings from
fourth to the NFL s best.
Instead, it s mnrooned at
No. 25 after getting flattened in an openin~ 38-24
loss to the Patnots. a
showing so bad that the
Bengals are calling it an
eye-opener.
Maybe they re not as
good as they think.
"Defense is all about
attitude.'' Johnson said
Wednesday. "We did not
have the right attitude last
week. Collectively. we 11
have an attitude adjustment and we II be prepared for Sunday."
The Bengals (0-1) have
high stakes for their horne
opener against Baltimore

(1-0), a team picked by
many to dethrone them as
AFC North champiOJ1s.
The Bengals swept the
division last season. the
first time they ve done
that in franchist: history,
and have won their last
seven games · overall
against AFC North teams.
Another bad showing
and the Bengals will be
trying to dig out of a
quick two-game deficit.
\nother bad showing
and the defense can forget
about being considered
the league s elite.
"I take it very personal," Johnson said. ·'J don t
know why the attitude
W&lt;Hl t where it needed to
be across the board myself included - but I
know our goal this week
is to have the right mindset. And the mindset IS
going to be all-day,
smash-mouth and get
after them."

The Bengals were bad
in all phases in 'lew
England. Carson Palmer
threw an interception that
was returned for a touchdown. and the Patriots ran
back •the second-half
kickoff for another score.
But the defensive collapse
was the most stunnmg
part of the team-wide
implosion.
Tom Brady Jed the
Patriots to 280 yards and
a 24-3lead in the first half
alone. The Bengals priority was to pressure Brady,
but he wac; hit only twice
all game while throw in~ it
35 times. Cincinnati dtdn t come close to sacking
him.
After the Patriots went
up 31-3, the Bengals
scored a couple of touchdowns. sparking thoughts
of a comeback win. 'Tht s
when the defense had perhaps its worst moments.
allowing New England to

hold the ball for nearly
eight minutes during a 14play touchdown drive that
put it out of reach.
There were missed
tackles and broken coverages and a lot of uncharacteristic lapses for Mike
Zimmer s defense.
"The whole thing was
my fault." Zimmer said
Wednesday after practice.
"The whole fiasco was
my fault. I know better
than what I did, and I ve
got big enough shoulders
to take it."
The defense had two
aood games against the
Ravens last season. beating them 17-14 in
Baltimore and 17-7 in
Cincinnati. The Ravens
scored only two touchdowns on offense - Ed
Reed returned an interception for the other score
- and went only 4 of 21
on third-down conversions in the two games.

Heisman Trust: No 2005 winner
NEW YORK (AP) And the Heisman Trophy
winner for 2005 is - no
one.
Rather than replace
Reggie
Bush.
who
returned his trophy after a
scandal erupted. the officials who administer the
award decided it would
remain vacant for that
year.
There was some initial
talk that the trophy might
go to former Texas quarterback Vince Young.
who finished a distant
second to Bush in the voting.
However,
Heisman
Trust President William
Dockery
told
The
Associated Press in a
interview
telephone
Wednesday that the eight
trustees never decided to
take the trophy away
from Bush nor did they
receive any advance
notice of Bush s decision.
"We re certainly not
upset Reggie resolved the
issue.·· he said.
The Heisman board
held its regular monthly
meeting Tuesday, but
Dockery said there were
no plans to make a final
decision about Bush and
the 2005 Heisman at that
time.
Turns out they didn t
have to.
Before the meeting
started, Bush announced
he would make the

unprecedented move of
forfeiting the Heisman he
won while starring at runnin~ back for Southern
California. In June, after
a four-year investigation,
the NCAA ruled Bush
was ineligible for the
2005 season for
improper benefits.
Players are re~uired to
be in good standmg with
the NCAA to be eligible
for college football s
highest honor.
Even before Dockery
said there would be no
winner or revote for
2005. Young said he
didn t want the Heisman
anyway.
"I would not want to
have it, and don t want
the trophy. Like I said,
2005, Re.ggie Bush is
the Heisman Trophy
winner. Why would I
want it?" he told
reporters
after
Tennessee Titans practice in Nashville.
Dockery said Bush,
now with the New
Orleans Saints, met with
some of the trustees in
New York several weeks
ago.
"Reggie requested a
meeting," Dockery said.
He didn t disclos
what was discussed, but
did say Bush was given
no indication the trust
might strip him of the
award because a decision had not been made.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Thursday,
Sept. 16, 2010:
This yea~; you open up to many
changes. Emphasize your imagination
and your ability to move past an issue.
You might see a situation far differently
from others. You add more energy
than you realize. You add a caring. feeling touch that makes people more
coinfortable. Be willing to discuss
issues more openly. If you are single, a
relationship enters your life that will
play a significant role. If you are
attached, the two of you regain your
past closeness. You act like newlyweds.
CAPRICORN is fun to be with.

Roundup
Ohio State to keep
from PageBl
scheduling in-state foes
COLUMBUS, Ohio
(AP) - Imagine an Ohio
State team allowing just
14 points all season with
a defense putting up five
shutouts. one of which
was an impressive 14-0
victory over archri val
Michigan.
Pretty good season.
right?
But that 1921 campaign also marked the
last time the Buckeyes
lost to an in-state school.
On Oct. 8. Oberlin hung
a humiliatmg 7-6 defeat
on Ohio State.
Since that game. which
predated now ancient
Ohio
Stadium.
the
biggest school in the
Buckeye state has gone
40-0-1 against Ohio
teams.
"If Mars had dropped
from its place in the solar
system and bumped into
\1other Earth yesterday.
it wouldn t have caused
any greater surprise in
Columbus than that
kicked up by little
Oberlin when it licked
Ohio State s football
team 7 to 6 in the
Buckeyes
own back
yard." read The Ohio
State Journal s report
from the game.
The game was played
before 9,000 at Ohio
Field which was, basically. a field on campus.
In its 121 years of footbalL Ohio State has
played in-s tate teams
240 times. On Saturday,
the
second-ranked
Buckeyes will pay Ohio
University $850.000 to
make the hour-long trip
north to Columbus for a
noon kickoff to be the
241 st.
When the college sport
was just getting sta1ted.
Ohio State played almost
exclusively Ohio teams
because travel in those
days was slow and costly. Then. in 1934. not
long after a 76-0 rout of
Western Reserve. the
Buckeyes stopped playing schools from within
the borders until a contest with Bowling Green
in 1992.
The Falcons almost
made Ohio State regret

the scheduling decision.
hanging with the 22ndranked Buckeyes all day
befor~ falltng 17-6.
Most years since then.
at least one or even two
in-state schools have
dotted Ohio State s
schedule. It s been a winwin. with Ohio State getting a lucrative home
date. the other s&lt;.:hool
getting a sizable check
for its trouble and the
money staying within the
state.
''It works well for us."
Ohio State athletic director Gene Smith said.
"When I came here (in
2005).
(&lt;.:oach
Jim
Tressel) and J had a conversation
about ' ' our
schedule and we decided
to try and schedule MAC
schools. Then we went to
the 12th game. We really
got on it hard to try and
schedule MAC schools.
but with the real focus on
Ohio. So we ve been
able to make it happen so
far. Hopefully. we can
keep it going."
Tressel believes there
are benefits for all.
''Tt s a special opportunity for people to play in
the Horseshoe and it s a
financial gain for sister
Institutions." he said.
''It s prbbably not the
easiest thing for the
home team because you
&lt;in t want to not do well
against your in-state
brethren. It s been a real
part of the last few years
of Ohio State football
and I think it s been a
positive thing."
There have been some
close calls, but for the
most part the Buckeyes
have dominated. dver
the 20 games played
since 1992. the Buckeyes
have • outscored their
neighboring rivals hy an
average of 34- I 0.
The last time Ohio
came to town, the
Bobcats led 14-12 going
ulto the fourth quarter
against the nation s No.
3-ranked team. The
Buckeyes scored twice
to win 25-14.
··we could be playing
Pickerington
H il!h
School and we wouldn~ t

be loqking past them."
Ohio State offensive
lineman Justin Boren
said. using his former
high school as a reference point. "It s OU.
They re a good team. We
almost lost in 2008."
The lone game played
away from Ohio Stadium
since the in-state games
returned to Ohio State s
schedule in 1992 was
one of the most memorable. The Buckeyes
would go on to win the
2002 national championship with a 14-0
record. but they were
fortunate to survive a 23victory
over
19
Cincinnati at Paul Brown
Tiger Stadium in that
se&lt;1son s fourth game.
Bearcats
receivers
dropped t\VO potential
game-winning
touchdown passes in the closing seconds of that game.
"We haven t played a
good game every time
we ve played in-state
foes."
Tressel
said.
"Cincinnati catches a
pass in the corner of the
end zone, you know. we
cin t have a (championship) ring."
Smith says the in-state
games are ideal for
everybody - until the
Buckeyes lose one.
"It s risky." he said.
''We under.stand that
because every now and
then there s a program
that can get us.... But it s
the right thing to do. to
be able to keep the
money in state and help
those schools."
Ohio State. by the way,
is favored by 31 .5 points
against Ohio in the latest
match up.
The old newspaper
account of that 1921 Joss
to Oberlin provides a
cautionary tale for future
Buckeyes teams.
'' l'he real story of what
happened is brief." the
Journal attide said. "The
Buckeye eleven entered
the cotitest confident that
no matter what happened
Ohio State would win.
Oberlin
licked
the
Buckeyes in a fair and
square
manner
and
deserved the victory."
