"On if the refs should have thrown a flag:
Yeah. They were terrible refs to me. There were a lot of missed calls in that game. Ohio State, it was their refs, they didn’t call a lot of stuff. As far as the punt return that they returned for a touchdown? Clipping in the back. It was so clear for the refs. We can’t have that. That’s a big game, you’ve got to understand, guys wanted that. We’ve been waiting for that game. It was a heartbreaker when you have to fight against refs that are cheating. It hurts more. It just pisses me off when people cheat and can’t play fair."

I thought about actually taking the comment seriously, but then saw that it was coming from The Post.

Nevermind that idea.

HAHAHAHAHA! That is one of the cleanest football games I have ever seen!They are lucky the Buckeyes didnt bring their A game that day or it would have been like 60-0!I mean I feel for the kid that hes out for the year but thats just sour grapes there.I guess the officials fumbled that punt return that turned around the game as well!

Edit

the losing team always says they've been cheated!

after scanning the rest of the article i've come to the conclusion that Scott needs to quit crying. i can understand feeling as if you had been cheated especially with such a terrible missed call like that but some of the other stuff is just a bad case of sore loser.

On the play that he was injured on:I remember it like it was yesterday. I was in the pocket, I see the guy coming and felt like he had a pretty good angle on me and I threw the ball away, trying to make the smart play. I really wasn’t expecting him to come up and tackle me like that. I thought he was just going to push me. I felt it was unnecessary.

it's football, you dont wanna get tackled? play intramural.

Poor guy.... it looked like all of his dreams were going to come to life.... but they were slain as quickly as they came, to quote Lamb of God

Go whine more buddy... way to show that in-state support for the school that IS Ohio's heart and soul....

in state? theo scott is from Cali, OSU probably means jack to him. i just cant get over him crying about getting tackled...in a game of football of all places...crazy concept

I think Scott was referring more to the illegal block in the back on Small's return which even Jim Tressel referenced.

You have to some empathy for a team with 60 Ohio boys. They showed they can play with the big boys.

There were actually two different block in the back penalties that could have been called on that run back by Small.

It's not that OSU went out and cheated, the ref just didn't call it.

Well said dublin.

Here's one Cat fan rooting for the Buckeyes tonight.

Good luck.

You'll need it. The Ohio/OSU game does reveal that underdogs can compete and in the Buckeyes case tonight hopefully prevail.

I wouldn't say the refs cheated , but they did miss the clip on the return It was plain as day ..... OSU will get theirs tonight .......Spanking that is

darn maybe it was the referees fault vs USC. What an idea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the refs in the USC game werent very good IMO but they certianly werent the cause for a 32 point loss. no excuses coming from this buckeye fan, OSU as a whole just played like crap...some parts moreso than others, but they couldnt get anything right.

Ohio cannot compete with Ohio State. Ohio State treated the game as a scrimmage and worked on things that needed to be worked on. They did the same thing last year against Akron.

osu may have looked at this as scrimmage until the half. after that, it took everything they had to put the cats away.

Hey Westbrook, I guess that "scrimmage" against the Bobcats really worked out well against THE University of Southern California!
