LOS ANGELES – The Ohio State Buckeyes, in an overwhelming vote, receive this week’s Bitch-Slap-of-the-Week for again self-destructing on the national stage, this time in a match-up against the USC Trojans.
Reminiscent of the gladiator days, 93,607 belligerent fans packed the stadium to watch their No. 1-ranked Trojans slaughter their “Little Ten” opponent 35-3.
Jim Tressell’s Buckeyes, who were hoping to redeem themselves after having their asses handed to them in two recent national title games, were bitch-slapped, spanked and hung out to dry.
Trojan rocket-launcher, Mark Sanchez threw 4 TD passes and sophomore Joe McKnight danced through OSU’s sieve-like defense . . . averaging 8.8 yards per carry; finishing with 105 yards.
Buckeyes QB Todd Boeckman spent the early part of the night running for his life, getting pounded to the turf with five sacks, hurrying throws and tossing two interceptions, one returned 48 yards for a score.
Boeckman spent the latter part of the evening as a spectator on the sidelines, wiping grass stains off his pants while top national recruit Terrelle Pryor relieved him for the remainder of the game.
Kudos, Buckeyes! You again let down a national NCAAF audience with an embarrassing performance and receive SportsClimax.com’s Bitch-Slap-of-the-Week.
