After that loss, Andy Geiger was quoted as saying he was unhappy because he felt OSU had not attempted to use all its weapons -- a stunningly critical remark from an AG, but one that was quite accurate.
    Was Geiger an Attorney General? :)

    I'm glad I read this thread during halftime of the Michigan game. I don't think I'll get as mad at Tressel's playcalling after re-living Cooper's incredible blunders. I actually felt once again the awful frustration of those games in the late 90s while reading this thread.

    I think the '98 Buckeyes were the best Buckeyes team I've watched in my lifetime (26 years). They were pretty stacked at nearly every position, and just blew it versus Michigan State. I was so disgusted watching that game.

    George Bland : I was at that Illinois game as well. In fact, that was the first game I ever watched in Ohio Stadium. Such a great effort by Eddie and the O-line that day. Remember, Illinois had two of the best defenders in the country that year in Simeon Rice and Kevin Hardy.
