    I do agree with you that it is a misconception that his Patriots’ defenses were stifling. They were more of a bend but don’t break defense that buckled down in the red zone. Having said that, college football is a step down from professional football and if you’re good enough for Bill Belichick then you’re good enough for me.

    Losing Ransom could potentially be a much bigger deal than we realize, but hopefully Jaylen McClain or Malik Hartford step up in a big way, but until they do it has do be considered a downgrade. As for CB2, Jermaine Matthews Jr is probably already better than Denzel Burke was, and has a higher ceiling. If those two would have been in the same class, I don't think Burke ever would have started over Matthews Jr. I look at it as a Quinn Ewers vs. Arch situation. Arch was clearly the future with a higher ceiling, but he was never going to surpass Ewers on the depth chart (unless Ewers came back this season of course), and the same goes for Denzel Burke.

    I feel like these are all rational takes. I think Ohio State's OT's are going to be very good, even better than last season but Texas' DE's are advantage Texas against anybody. In my personal opinion, I think Ohio State is going to have more success running against Texas than they did in the Cotton Bowl. Ohio State returns their entire IOL, plus Texas is replacing their top 4 DT's (from my understanding at least). I know that Texas brought in a bunch of bodies in the portal, so we will see.

    I get ya. I guess it doesn't matter because regardless Texas runs the perfect scheme to counter what Ohio State wants to do in the passing game, so I'm not expecting anything to come easier than it did in the Cotton Bowl, unless Max Klare truly is that great of a receiving threat (compared to Gee Scott Jr), to where he opens everything up.

    Bringing up RB3, I can tell this man knows his stuff! I can see Bo Jackson possibly overtaking CJ Donaldson Jr as RB2, however James Peoples should be a very good lead back. I think most Ohio State fans would be surprised if James Peoples isn’t RB1 the rest of his time at Ohio State. He’s been compared to JK Dobbins a lot.

    I am worried about Texas’ scheme, not the DBs after losing Barron. Maybe that’s a bad take?

    Perfect, that is exactly what I was looking for! I just followed the show on Apple Podcasts. If interested in an Ohio State podcast, easy 15-30 minute listen, it would be “Austin & Birm”. This is a daily podcast as well.

    That wouldn’t surprise me one bit.
  9. LovingBuckeye
    Sure was. Winning the national championship is the almighty Trump card. Especially when the B1G went 4-1 against teams competing for the playoffs.
  10. LovingBuckeye
    This man knows his history! +1
  11. LovingBuckeye
    This is also the deepest the B1G has ever been. Either way, it’ll be settled on the field. I think LSU is certainly losing at Clemson. If Texas isn’t able to pull the upset in Columbus, it’s looking like another year of the SEC being mocked. If Michigan is able to pull off the upset in Norman, oooof

    Delete this! 😉

    In fairness to my prediction, Vegas has Ohio State’s o/u at 24.5. I don’t think it is unreasonable to think Ohio State gets a couple field goals or a short field touchdown off a turnover to get to 30-31 points.

    “2024 Michigan was a mess” Yes, that is kind of our point. Michigan still beat Alabama.
  15. LovingBuckeye
    “He’s still not 100%” In my humble opinion, Ohio State’s interior defensive line has an advantage over Texas’ IOL.
  16. LovingBuckeye
    In my opinion that wasn’t a “cheap” screen, it was a horrible defensive play call for that moment.
  17. LovingBuckeye
    Yes, I think Arch is going to struggle on 8/30. He may break off some long runs, but I don’t believe he will be very efficient throwing the ball.
  18. LovingBuckeye
    I have no clue how good either of those teams will be, but I know Michigan beat them two years in a row, so Alabama isn’t going to get the benefit of the doubt.
  19. LovingBuckeye
    - Ohio State’s defensive line will NOT be as good as last season. I think they will be very good and one of the best in the country but they will not be as good as last season - Ok, Goosby is very experienced. Maybe I’m being too disrespectful to Goosby, i apologize.
  20. LovingBuckeye
    I’m sure DJ is a quality player.
  21. LovingBuckeye
    I’m not saying I could do it, but I would assume broken fingers wouldn’t be enough to keep Goosby out of the game?
  22. LovingBuckeye
    In your opinion what would be the best Texas podcast to listen to for accurate and intelligent insights? I enjoy learning as much as possible about the teams Ohio State plays as well.
  23. LovingBuckeye
    I’m sorry your interactions with Ohio State fans haven’t been good, I truly mean that. In my personal opinion, I think most people who watched that game felt like Ohio State’s defensive line was dominant. Ohio State’s linebackers were dominated by Texas’ running backs in the passing game, l’m man enough to admit that. It is one thing that worries the sh*t out of me for 8/30.
  24. LovingBuckeye
    Much like Sark, Ryan Day’s bread and butter is the QB position. I honestly can’t remember the last time an OSU QB had more than one turnover in a game, it just doesn’t happen. It doesn’t mean Texas’ D won’t completely suffocate Ohio State’s O, I just wouldn’t expect anymore than one turnover at the most.
  25. LovingBuckeye
    I was just letting him know my thinking, but I’ll be back here win or lose to tell you all good game and it was fun discussing ball with you.
