Most of our kids were 5. Ohio State means very little to the current crew. You get a real revenge game in two weeks with Clemson. The upperclassmen were all part of that 58-0 embarrassment. Can't write a better script knocking off the defending national champions for the conference championship and a playoff berth. Nobody could have envisioned Miami in the playoffs 24 months later.
I gotcha but you could also reference the age of our players (or them not even being on this Earth) when talking about our Notre Dame rivalry and when it meant something prior to this year. Not to mention that a TON of the guys that were on that team that got screwed in that OSU game have been around this team a lot.
I personally view that Clemson game as something more of euthanasia of an era of mediocrity than something that needs to be avenged but you're right in thinking that the players probably view it otherwise.
