Robiskie reunion in the desert
In a fortuitous travel twist, Ohio State wide receiver Brian Robiskie will get to see his father Terry, the wide receivers coach for the Atlanta Falcons, for the second time in seven days this week.
Brian attended the Falcons’ final regular-season game against St. Louis in Atlanta last Sunday. When Atlanta and Carolina both won last Sunday, the Falcons were matched against the Arizona Cardinals in a first-round playoff game at the University of Phoenix Stadium on Saturday.
“I am going to have a lot of family coming out,” said Brian, who led the Buckeyes with 37 receptions for 419 yards and eight touchdowns.
“They will be going to the Atlanta game and they will be going to my game. Obviously it worked out pretty good.”
Brian hopes to spend some time with his father in the next day or two and would like to attend Saturday’s NFL game after the Buckeyes’ practice, which ends at 2:30 pm, the same time the Atlanta-Arizona game starts.
He also left his father a ticket for the Buckeyes’ game against Texas on Monday a game the elder Robiskie could attend only if the Falcons lose Saturday.
“But that’s not going to happen,” Brian said.
“I left him a ticket, but that seat is going to be empty.”
