  1. Ohio State typically plays very strong OOC opponents, 1 every year. Texas, Georgia, and Alabama on the horizon. Oklahoma, Notre Dame, Miami, TCU, Virginia Tech, Texas, Washington, Washington State (when they were Top 10), in the recent past. It’s not about Ohio Stadium, it’s about a new QB and a new OL on the road.
  2. The OL is fantastic. It’s definitely a sign the DL is going to be very good, like the past 25 years
  3. Haha I was yesterday years old when I found out that was his nickname. I like it, hopefully he earns it on the field.
  4. Ditto for Ohio State. If Texas takes the lead at any point during this game, even if 3-0 on the first drive, the sky will be falling and Ryan Day all of a sudden sucks.
  5. You could have just asked us and we would have told you lol. By all accounts the DL has been dominant this camp. I don’t think any Ohio State fans are concerned about the defense. It should be one of the best defenses in the country once again.
  6. Urban Meyer isn’t the coach. How Ryan Day’s teams have fared is much more relevant. I do agree though, simply playing at home is not enough, it’s more so about having 4 new OL and a new QB and struggling to communicate. Ohio Stadium is incredible in terms of its history in tradition. In terms of atmosphere, Death Valley it is not.
  7. Yup, win or lose I’ll be back here to tell you guys good game. And you can laugh at me all you want if some of the things I believed were “elite” didn’t end up being very elite lol
  8. 100%. And among the best in the nation means different things to different people. To me that means Ohio State will have one of the ten best defensive lines in the country. With Ohio State’s history, recruiting, and coaching I don’t think that’s a stretch.
  9. Here’s my honest opinion just for clarity WRs: Elite TEs: Elite RBs: Very good IOL: Elite OTs: Very good QB: Good but inexperienced DL: Very good LBs: Elite, just behind Texas CBs: Elite Safeties: Very good K: Average, inconsistent P: Above average, nothing special
  10. That is why I wanted to come here and give my opinions. Same goes for Texas by the way. I learned that the Texas offensive line isn’t nearly as inexperienced as I thought they were. My prediction is 31-17 Ohio State. I’ve been wrong plenty FYI, and will probably be wrong here too lol
  11. To be fair, Texas can say elite for many of the same.
  12. Yeah, only Oregon in 2021.
  13. Brother, this isn’t our first rodeo
  14. I don't know who 1970 should belong to but it shouldn't be my Buckeyes lol. I believe that is the only one OSU claims that they didn't earn
  15. Man, Texas is stacked. Here are the Buckeyes who made the list - 1. Jeremiah Smith 3. Caleb Downs 62. Sonny Styles 67. Carnell Tate 75. Max Klare
  16. Hi Longhorn Nation, who will be UT’s starting 11 on offense and defense and their P/K on 8/30? What about injuries, are there any injuries you are watching or concerned about? For Ohio State, in 11 personnel LT: Austin Siereveld LG: Luke Montgomery C : Carson Hinzman RG: Tegra Tshabola RT: Phillip Daniels (Ethan Onianwa) QB: Julian Sayin RB: James Peoples TE: Max Klare WR1: Jeremiah Smith WR2: Carnell Tate Slot: Brandon Innis DE: Kenyatta Jackson Jr DT: Eddrick Houston DT: Kayden McDonald DE: Caden Curry (Beau Atkinson) LB: Sonny Styles LB: Arvell Reese CB1: Davison Igbinuson CB2: Jermaine Matthews Jr Nickel: Lorenzo Styles Jr FS: Caleb Downs SS: Jaylen McClain (Malik Hartford) P: Joe McGuire (Nick McLarty) K: Jayden Fielding Parentheses for competitions that haven’t been decided/announced yet. Injuries: None
  17. Ohio State isn’t concerned about their wide receivers. There shouldn’t be any drop off from last season, only difference is Brandon Innis is replacing Emeka Egbuka, but Innis should be every bit as good. Our concern is our OL and QB allowing the receivers to get the ball against Texas’ edge rushers and linebackers.
  18. Yeah, UT’s defense was frustrating. Styles make fights, and Texas’ D is the kryptonite for our WR’s. Ohio State wants to face man, like Tennessee, Oregon, and Notre Dame. Hopefully our IOL can winning the battles and allow James Peoples and CJ Donaldson Jr to control the game. As for Ohio State’s kicker, it’s Jayden Fielding. He’s a returning starter but inconsistent. Missed a couple easy FG’s against Michigan that cost Ohio State the game. Fielding was perfect in the playoffs though, so our hope is that he’ll bring that momentum into the season. If Fielding is lining up to kick a 45+ yard field goal, we have very little confidence it’s going through.
  19. lol here’s to hoping you don’t! Jk, my worst nightmare is Arch starting his Heisman campaign in Columbus, Ohio. Just like a Texas QB from 20 years ago that I forget the name of 😉
  20. I do just want to say that Carnell Tate was probably the 5th option in Ohio State’s offense and has nearly 2x the stats of Ryan Wingo in nearly every category. Catches, yards, and touchdowns.
  21. I know Texas fans will disagree, but I don’t think there’s an analyst anywhere that would take Texas’ WRs 2-5 over Ohio State’s either.
  22. As for your last point, I am worried about Sark vs. Patricia. I like the Patricia hire, don’t get me wrong, but first game going against one of the best play callers, if not the best play caller in the sport worries me.
