I'm not about to enter into this argument, b/c I think both schools have good teams and either could win on any given day, but it's nice just to be in the conversation for once. I did find this quote interesting: "Pead knows well that his opinion will be anathema to the Buckeye fans who inhabit every corner of the state. He grew up in Columbus, where he topped one of Ohio State's greatest players: Pead broke two-time Heisman Trophy winner Archie Griffin's career rushing record at Eastmoor Academy, then had to choose between the two schools for college.Buckeyes? Or Bearcats?“I liked the situation they have here,” the sophomore running back said. “They were an up-and-coming team and I love the coaches. The coaches were nice, whereas the OSU coaches were, 'If you come here, you come here. If you don't, then that's fine, we'll get the next guy.' I felt these coaches, they cared about you.”Not even a little lobbying by Griffin himself could sway Pead. Griffin was a frequent topic of conversation in Pead's home because his grandfather played little league baseball and high school football against him in Columbus. Pead grew up reading the yellowed newspaper clippings of those encounters." http://news.cincinnati.com/article/20090922/SPT0101/309220052/1064/UC+thinks+it+s+Ohio+s+best+team
