Elder rolls Oak Hills, Faces National Power Next

After Elder's trouncing of neighborhood rival Oak Hills, the Panthers look forward to playing one of the nation's finest schools. Concord De La Salle from California is ranked 5th nationally by USA Today. Elder is not ranked nationally, but in the state's first AP Poll, the Panthers found themselves ranked 6th.
The Kirk Herbstreit Ohio vs USA Challenge will take place over two days in two locales. The link above is to the Ohio vs USA page. Concord De La Salle won 151 games straight, a record that was snapped in the Spartan's 2004 opener. Many fans across the nation wonder what will happen. "What will Ohio's record be?" they ask. "Who wins? Who loses?" others ask. The popular Ohio website Yappi is chock full of threads about "The Herbie", as it's being called.
Herbstreit, a 1993 graduate of The Ohio State University hatched the plan to have Ohio's best play Texas's best the night before the Buckeyes' big matchup with the Longhorns last year. it has grown exponentially since then. A list of matchups, including times and locations is available on the website. Tickets are $13 presale and can also be bought online.
Hopefully all Ohio fans can actually pull for one another this weekend. No matter how much it pains me to root for Colerain, St. X, Moeller, and the others, I will because I love Ohio, and Ohio football. Plus, after the smackdown that Ohio State laid on Texas last week, I feel confident in the level of football played in Ohio. Well, that's a little bit of a stretch, but maybe I'm right. Let's hear it: OH-(You respond "IO")
