This is still Ohio State football, right?

The Thursday game is no big deal to me, a nice change that gives the Buckeyes two very helpful extra days of preparation for the Miami game as they shoot for a national title.

The possible unveiling of divisions, which a Nebraska assistant athletic director said on radio last night he expects and many, many other people are speculating will happen - well, that could make some people very angry.

But I think the first real announcement of the day turned out pretty well for Ohio State fans, as Nike showed off the new Pro Combat jerseys in New York, giving a glimpse at what the Buckeyes will wear for the Michigan game.

Not bad. As we wrote yesterday, I like the theme honoring the military service of the 1942 Buckeyes. You can see a little bit on the gray sleeves under the uniform the camo pattern.

So, with one announcement down for the day, what do you think?”
