Does anyone recall the '06 tOSU game? It was the game coach ran to the bathroom in the first half. Well, I can remember as the half ended and PSU had the lead Tom Bradley walked up to Jim Tressel and handed him a play selection card that one of their O-lineman was using. I know it seems like a small deed to many but I know of many coaches who would've kept the opposing team's card. Also, if TB and LJ wanted they'd have time to figure out every play tOSU was using. In some ways, I am sorry Scrap never got his shot at HC because he was a man of very high integrity.
One of the many moments I was proud to be a PSU fan...

Bradley’s D made eventual Heisman winner Troy Smith look pretty pedestrian for most of the game. He threw his first pick of the season in that day (to Justin King).
Maybe it was planted? Only kidding, but there's a funny story from Mike Leach about a time he planted a playcall sheet and an elaborate setup to get it to the opposing team. They bought it, used the sheet and Leach and his staff called a set of plays that exploited what the opponent thought was coming for a couple of series before the coaches figured out they'd been had.
And I thought coach Tressel was very appreciative. In fact he offered to get Bradley a free tattoo the next time he was in Columbus.
