Ummm…yeah there probably should have been more than an few more Roman numerals in these takes, but I kinda got wrapped up in something like the feature story that will run in Sunday's ABJ.  Oopps.

In my mind, Troy Smith just won the Heisman tonight and deservedly so.  The Buckeyes came into the season ranked No. 1 and had to contend with having a bullseye on their backs for every single game.  Despite one mental area, and two fumbles that werne't his fault, he rallied his team to go 29 of 41 with four TDs (settting one Bucks record) and 316 yards.  He was downright freaky at times hitting eight different receivers.  Any future QB at OSU will be hard pressed to match his efforts against Michigan.

But let's talk about that Akron connection that provided a huge spark tonight.  Antonio Pittman showed why he's talking about sticking around next year in pursuit of the Heisman Trophy; he'd be in serious contention. As I mentioned in an earlier post Chris "Beanie" Wells, gives the Bucks hope for the future at the position as long as he's got his fumbleitis cured.

But enough of what could be.  My mind is completely focused on what could happen Jan. 8 in Glendale, Ariz.
