Not sure how much of an advantage it negates, since the schmucks practice there. They are used to the size, but granted, practices vs. games are totally different. Guess we will see!!

GO FALCONS!!
SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEP DUH SCMUCKS!!!!

"BG was relentless. It's like they know that a good first pass on the breakout from a defenseman will almost always result in an odd-man rush against them - but they go in anyway and dare you to make that pass. All three of their goals were just grit and effort. That's a team any fan can be proud to support...they give all they've got."

OSU was very beatable in the regular season series, the first game was the strangest NCAA game I've ever seen and both teams looks funny after winter break... the 2nd game was a tough loss and a combo of BG not playing a full 60 mins of hockey and tough luck.

Heh, heh. You should have seen it back in the day! I believe the ice is 200'x85' now, but it was shorter then--there were bleachers at the south end. Locker rooms and restrooms were (are?) indeed in the basement.

I had the pleasure of witnessing a splendid BG-OSU conflagration there. I beileve both benches cleared, there was equipment all over the ice, and it took a good 30 minutes to restore order.

I just spoke with the OSU ticket office, and was told that the 'will-call' window will open at 5:00...and it's actually located at St John's Arena (right next door to the Ice Dink). Doors to the Dink will open at 6:00.

He also warned me to expect traffic to be BRUTAL around the Schott because of the High School wresteling tournament. Suggested we come in from High Street instead of 315. Park in the lots North of St Johns and the Shoe.

Interesting link to tOSU's press release regarding the series:

My sister thinks John Markell is cute.
Almost as cute as he thinks he is.

Tonight's fight was similar, but on a smaller scale.
