I'm rooting for Ohio State regardless as I actually like them. My favorite good/blue blood/whatever you want to call it team.

(1) I considered going there for undergrad, but felt the campus was too big and too urban.
(2) Friend of mine from grad school and her husband went there and they were very good people (postdocs when I was a grad student)
(3) Maybe I've just been lucky, but I've never run across the insufferable fans people always point out at programs like this. Penn State and Michigan have been the worst for me personally. Notre Dame and West Virginia can be there too. And of course the JMU person who has to mention the 1 game they won over-and-over-and-over again.
(4) You could pretty much count on Ohio State to beat the good teams I despise the most - Penn State, Notre Dame and (until recently) Michigan.

The crab crepes at Le Yaca are pretty good. I've had some good stuff there.

From the same article:

Against the run, Powell-Ryland does well to set the edge and is an athlete who thrives against zone-reads and as a backside pursuit defender. Displays patient eyes to read and react as the end man on the line of scrimmage. Does a nice job of keeping feet active and is quick to pursue ball-carriers. Powell-Ryland can make plays inside his gap and has the versatility and athleticism to roam and make plays at or beyond the line some yards away from his initial alignment. He's a sound tackler in condensed areas who plays at full speed 100% of the time. Really good athlete at 5-tech who can also challenge quicker ball-carriers to the boundary. Takes on blocks well but would like to see more consistency in that area.

I should have linked to the Article: APR - Draft Network

The 1989 Batman was a somewhat fantastical take on film noir by Tim Burton, think a 1940s or 1950s gangster/detective movie with a Tim Burton touch of crazy. I think Nicholson was perfect for that.

Just read in the Roanoke Times that New Mexico safety Christian Ellis, 6' 202lbs is coming to the Hokies for his last year of eligibility. I know nada about him other than what the artifcle said.
