Seriously though, the lack of respect and acknowledgement over at 11Ws for Foster and DBU is appalling. To think I actually requested membership there. I hearby rescind said request.

As great as the '07 defense was, it was still a firm base 4-3 defense, well suited to the era but woefully outgunned in today's game. I'll take the nickle today, no questions asked.

And just to clear it up, you can't really go the route of "I'm just talking about personnel," because you can't ignore scheme. If you tried to play nickel with the roster from '07, I don't think it translates well. We're built for the nickle in this era of #DBU.

Pro tip from a musician: if you can, tune your bellow to a quarter pitch above or below the person next to you. There tends to be a bit of a drone of the same pitch that everyone sort of instinctively matches. If you're intentionally off-key, the dissonance is pleasantly annoying. Now if only I could have gotten a more coordinated effort together, it would have sounded worse than a vuvuzela coming from an entire section of the East Stands...

Alternatively, if anOSU begins to snap the ball with a clap instead of a verbal signal, try to get all the people in the lower sections to applaud fanatically right as everyone comes set.

But...but...they were just breaking in a new QB....and inexperienced OLine....and played Navy....and WRs dropped catchable passes......

You have to perfect a low drawn out continuous bellow that is both monontinous and continuous. You have to be able to continue this through all four quarters while maintaining the ability to change pitch and volume during third downs and "key plays". Losing your voice in the second quarter is a vast misalocation of resources.
