OU cornerback Julian Posey, a fifth year senior will be in the secondary facing his younger (and bigger) brother at OSU, Devier Posey at receiver. The two had a very competitive childhood and some words have been exchanged this week, including what was reported in the News Herald:
When a reporter told him that his older brother was quoted as saying that DeVier should "bring his 'A' game" and that he "was ugly," Posey — who leads OSU in receiving with eight catches, 146 yards and two touchdowns — shot back.
"Well, one, he knows I'm not ugly," Posey said. "And two, I'll bring my 'A' game. He just needs to be sure he brings his 'A' game. I'm not too worried about (Number) 9 this week, tell him that. He's the one who needs to bring his 'A' game."
Posey backed off a bit and said his brother is his best friend and that it will be exciting to play against him and his friends — players Posey looked up to and grew up watching. He said it is "exciting" to think that those older players are now talking about him when formulating a game plan against Ohio State.
When asked who would be more disappointed if the brothers got in a fight on the field Saturday, DeVier Posey said, "Probably Coach (Jim) Tressel (because) my mom knows how we are. She's broken up a bunch of fights before."
