As I browse the sports section looking for commetary on the Ohio State victory over Penn State (or any other victory), I like to look for little nuggets of wisdom. With the defense clicking and the offense finding the magic when needed, everyone has a lot to say about our beloved boys in scarlet.
But when Troy Smith threw his only TD on Saturday to Brian Robiskie, my first thought was "Heisman Trophy". I immediately commented to my friends that this was the play that would be shown over and over again on sports shows when promoting Smith's Heisman chances. Many people only recall one TD that Doug Flutie threw when he won the trophy. That's what it's going to be like for Troy Smith.
However, one person I found came up with the perfect comment. It describes perfectly what that touchdown was like, and it only took one sentence.
Troy Smith's touchdown pass to Brian Robiskie was like something straight out of NCAA 2007.
That came from JD Arney over at Around The Oval. On face value, it's a very basic sentence. But it is a perfect summary, because we all know EXACTLY the type of play he means. Something so incredible, it could only be perfomed on a X-Box or a PlayStation. But for those of us who got to witness it as it happened, it was magic.
JD's got some great insight and has started himself a nice blog. Give him some love and visit him as often as you can.
