25. and we’re back.

This hasn’t been an especially intimidating place recently. Nor has the team that plays there. That’s been bad for the Big Ten. It’s been bad for Ohio State. And it’s been bad for the greatest rivalry in sports. And my sense is that those lean days are over. I thought the arrival of an actual… Read More 25. and we’re back.
