Ohio State's Texas Game Trailer was great. The Trailer 02: ️ — Ohio State Football (@OhioStateFB) And so is this tribute to the men and women on Sept. 11, 2001. For a brief moment Wednesday night, an outline of the World Trade Center Twin Towers graced the Manhattan skyline again.

Have a good Friday. “FOR THE OTHER, REVENGE.” You know I’m a sucker for nostalgia. How about Brent Musburger setting the stage for the last time Ohio State faced Texas in Austin? The intro to No. 1 Ohio State vs. No. 2 Texas in 2006 ... what a throwback (h/t ) — ESPN College Football (@ESPNCFB) In a rematch of the 2005 Instant Classic between the storied programs, the No. 1 Buckeyes hit the road to face the No. 2 Longhorns at DKR-Memorial Stadium. Looking back at the box score is awesome. Troy Smith, Ted Ginn Jr. and James Laurinaitis stuffed it. Colt McCoy, Jamaal Charles and Michael Griffin — ehh, not so much. After the teams traded punches for most of the first quarter, Ohio State struck first with a 17-yard touchdown pass from Troy Smith to Anthony Gonzalez (Go Gonzo!). Texas answered with a 13-play, 78-yard drive in the second quarter, capped off by a 2-yard connection between McCoy and Billy Pittman. Those were the Longhorns’ only points of the game. Ohio State retook the lead before halftime, as Smith delivered a 29-yard strike to Ginn in the corner of the end zone. In the final 30 minutes, the Buckeyes put 10 more points on the board via a 31-yard Aaron Pettrey field goal and — the dagger — a 2-yard Antonio Pittman touchdown. If Ohio State wins 24-7 in Austin this weekend, I would be tickled pink, but I don’t need them to. I just need the Buckeyes to get on the plane with a win. “WE’RE COMING. WE’RE COMING.” Cam Coleman made headlines this week when he sent this message to Ohio State: “We’re coming. We’re coming.” It was a poor choice of words, considering Ohio State is the road team, not Texas. But I understand the sentiment. Coleman is the star of a Longhorns receiving corps that also features Ryan Wingo and Emmett Mosley V. This weekend, those three want to prove Texas has a better trio than Wide Receiver U. What Coleman may not know, however, is that Ohio State is more than WRU. It’s also BIA. “Great challenge for them,” Ryan Day said of the Buckeyes’ defensive backs on Wednesday. “But again, this is why you come to Ohio State. We have good receivers, too. They have to trust their training — and they’ve been going against our guys every day in practice.” Thirteen of Arch Manning’s 20 completions were to Coleman, Wingo and Mosley. Wingo was Manning’s favorite target, with seven catches for 121 yards and one touchdown. Coleman had three receptions for 70 yards and two scores, while Mosley added three catches for 37 yards. “Their guys are excellent — some of the best in the country. Real speed, really good route runners and a really good quarterback that throws the ball on time,” Day said. “Our guys are excited for the challenge, but know that this is a great group. I think they’ll have confidence in their preparation leading into the game.” A message to Cam Coleman: BIA is coming. BIA is coming. THEIR LOSS, OHIO STATE’S GAIN. Ohio State’s wide receiver lineage is incredible. From Cris Carter in the mid-1980s to Jeremiah Smith in the mid-2020s, some unbelievable pass-catchers have come through Columbus. That list includes Jaxon Smith-Njigba, who revealed on last week that he ended up at Ohio State because Texas never recruited him. “The lack of recruiting from the Texas schools — I wouldn’t say all Texas schools — but the majority of the ones I wanted to go to,” Smith-Njigba said of the reason he chose the Buckeyes. He continued: “Growing up, as a baby, I was an A&M fan. Then in middle school or high school, I went to the Texas-OU game (at) the Cotton Bowl (Stadium), each and every year my dad would take me. I was kind of like, 'I don’t know which side I’m going to play on, but I’m definitely going to play in this game.' And then Ohio State comes in and swoops me up.” JSN ended up at Ohio State because Texas didn't recruit him — The Ryen Russillo Show (@TheRyenRussillo) Smith-Njigba said he spoke with coaches from both Texas and Oklahoma, but he felt neither school wanted him on its roster. “I definitely had my mind made up on those two, and then out of nowhere, Brian Hartline comes, Mark Pantoni and Coach (Ryan) Day, and they’re like, ‘We want you here. You need to be here.’ And after that, I just turned my back (on Texas and Oklahoma),” he said. Ha. Their loss. Smith-Njigba dominated whenever he was on the field for the Buckeyes, beginning his career with an acrobatic touchdown catch in his college debut and setting postseason records with 15 receptions, 347 receiving yards and three touchdowns in...
