9

The number 9.


--Nine is the highest single-digit number in the decimal system.

--In the NATO phonetic alphabet the number is called "novenine".

--The ordinal adjective is ninth.

--In the game of Craps, 9 is known as the center field because it is in the middle of the seven numbers on the field bet.

--The number worn by Roy Hobbs in the movie The Natural.


However, all those 9's pail in comparison to 9 being the number of bowl games THE Ohio State University has played against SEC teams and 9 is the number of losses they have.


I am sure Bobby will have more on this a little later. Congrats to LSU...its Auburn's turn next year. WAR EAGLE!!!
