Hail Mary Haiku: Ohio Bobcats edition

by Joel Hollingsworth on Sep 21, 2009 6:37 AM EDT in Tennessee Volunteer Football

It's time for this week's Hail Mary Haiku, Ohio Bobcats edition.

Here's the concept for those new to the thing: You're behind by four at midfield. Only one second remains on the clock, and you have to heave the ball into a mass of players in the end zone and hope that one of your guys comes down with it. Bonus points for actually observing the traditional 5-7-5 format for haikus, but free form haikus are allowed. This is, after all, a desperation play.

On Thursday, we'll ask everyone to take a look at all of the entries and whittle them down with recs, and then we'll post the top ten or so on Friday and open it up for voting. Voting will continue until 6:00 a.m. on Saturday. We'll post the winner in the game day open thread. What do you get for winning? The esteem of your peers! It's totally worth it.

Enter yours by clicking on the "Comments" link below, and pass the invitation to enter along to others. Keep 'em clean, please.

Hike! Ooooh!

A “good” Gator loss
Will mean nothing if we don’t
Get a Bobcat win.

Well, Cincy’s mascot…
half bear, the other half cat.
That sounds familiar.

Let's try this again

Ohio’s mascot,
half Bob, the other half cat.
Not a real mascot.

It’s time for a win
Can we throw for TDs? Hmmm.

Defense 101
UT has Eric Berry…
…and your team doesn’t.

Bankruptcy Free Form

Methinks moral victories suck
But thank Monte: the entire state of florida is now bankrupt
Next? O-H…I-O

And one of the traditional variety

Kiff is still talking
He is brash, and I like it
Let’s start a win streak

At the risk of being a complete geek

these really should be senryu (not haiku) since they are pretty darn humorous, most of the time.

NEEDLESSLY JABBING THE BIG10

VOLS crave 2 and 2
O-HI-O or O-S-U
Either or will do!
