Well, the Ohio governor was sworn in last night, but postponed the inaugural ceremony until this weekend in order to prevent conflict with the BCS game (and potential celebrations).

Strickland postponed the public celebration a week to avoid competing with Ohio State University's bid for a national football championship today in Arizona. Strickland plans to watch the game with OSU students at the campus arena.
