CHorn427 Posted yesterday at 04:56 AM Share Posted yesterday at 04:56 AM ESPN only lists 3 “Key Returning Starters” for Ohio State: Jeremiah Smith, Carnell Tate and Caleb Downs. Every other team has 6+ key returning starters. There’s no chance in hell they are the #1 team in the country next year. The only reason they were the #1 team this year was because of extraordinary retention of their 2023 roster. However, I don’t see any way our matchup with them next season isn’t #1 vs #2 (could go either way). How many #1 vs #2 matchups have there ever been in week one, I wonder? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadhead_Horn Posted yesterday at 05:08 AM Share Posted yesterday at 05:08 AM How do you have Ohio State as the #1 team in the country when they have a mailman force-feeding the ball to Jeremiah Smith? They need to hit the Spring portal hard, no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He better be elusive with our pass rush coming after him They picked up a good RB and a good TE in the portal. But it seems to me it will be impossible for them to make as big of splash pickups as Judkins and Downs, both of whom they picked up in last year’s winter portal window Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHorn427 Posted yesterday at 05:35 AM Share Posted yesterday at 05:35 AM Update: If Texas vs tOSU is #1 vs #2 next year, I’m pretty sure it will be the first week one 1v2 matchup in CFB history. https://www.boydsbets.com/college-football-no-1-vs-no-2/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a passer. He may have great pocket presence, but it doesn't seem likely it will be overly advanced in his first start against the Texas level of defense. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would put my money on him being a downgrade from Howard initially just due to inexperience. Just gotta hope his experience vs us is more of a “welcome to CFB” moment and less of a coming out party. Hopefully we have solid answers for replacing Barron, Makuba and our DTs. If so, I like our chances.

NothinButDaHorns34 Posted yesterday at 09:05 AM Share Posted yesterday at 09:05 AM Loving these type of lofty preseason expectations we are getting now. It was only about two or three years ago we started the season unranked. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leveller Posted yesterday at 03:21 PM Share Posted yesterday at 03:21 PM Who will be the Notre Dame quarterback? Are they losing much? They don’t recruit at the level of the top teams and it would be harder for them to reload. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
