Favorite Stat of the Game: 468 total yards and six total touchdowns by Dwayne Haskins. That’s what makes him, Tua, and Murray so impressive this year is that they are all first-year starters. None of them have completed a full season as a starter but, Haskins impresses me the most because Murray p...

You come at the king, you best not miss. As bad as Ohio State has played, they are still the king of the conference. Don't ever forget it dudes. This is OSU's conference until proven otherwise. This is not an unbeatable Michigan team and Haskins and JK decided that today would not be a loss. I...

Favorite Stat of the Game: 20 points. If you would have told me that Ohio State would beat MSU by three touchdowns minus an extra point, I would have laughed at you. After losing to PU by 29 and beating Nebraska by five, I thought we were going to get a repeat of 2016 or 2015 as far as final score w...

Favorite Stat of the Game: The rushing yards. Nebraska had 184 yards on 49 carries for three touchdowns. The good guys had 229 yards on 40 carries for three touchdowns. Ohio State only had about a 40-yard advantage. But the best part of this stat was Nebraska averaged 3.8 yards per rush while Ohio S...

This place has become a depressing cesspool of misery and despair. Buckeyes are not playing well Glaring weaknesses in many places Obvious (to some) reasons why The Ohio State Football team is in this place to begin with... But here's the deal. We have been here before...we ha...

Well, it happened again. That’s twice now since an infamous promise. Sweater Vest Award: A least Drue Chrisman played well. It’s not his fault Purdue went 99 yards after he put them at the one-yard line. Also, field goals lose football games. Unless they’re breaking a tie at the gun or in o...

Favorite Stat of the Game: Nine catches, 187 yards receiving, and two touchdowns. K.J. Hill had the most yards of any Buckeye receiver since Santonio Holmes against Marshall in 2004 (my first Buckeye game in the Shoe) and the team needed every one of them. The Brooklyn Dagger Award: K.J. Hill’s...

Ive been thinking about this a lot lately and although I think the committee has mostly gotten it right, it all comes down to their “perception” of who they think are the best 4 teams and the CFP turns into a subjective guess instead of picks based on tangible evidence. ...

What are the chances that an undefeated team loses today? That two of them lose? Three? The Undefeateds South Florida already won on Friday night, but there are still seven games remaining involving undefeated teams. Individually, all of them are favored except for Colorado. Of course, theoret...

If you lose two games can you still get into the College Football Playoff (CFP)? The brief history of the CFP says no, but looking a little further back in time it would appear to be quite plausible. <!--break--> CFP Era The CFP committee began their work in 2014, so we have only seen...

Favorite Stat of the Game: 455 yards. 455 yards passing was just shy of the record set by Art Schlichter. Oh, and he was 33 of 44 with six touchdowns. Dwayne Haskins makes the ridiculous look easy. The Brooklyn Dagger Award: TD to McLaurin to go up 42-26. I had a great view of that play and befor...

Favorite Stat of the Game: 2. Number 2 was the lucky number for the Buckeyes in State College. You take the two men wearing that number in the scarlet in gray out of that game and it may very well have been a rout. Chase Young had six tackles, two sacks, three tackles for a loss, two pass break-ups,...

Favorite Stat of the Game: Haskins and Martell were 31 of 38 for 419 yards, five touchdowns, and another on the ground. You just can’t say enough about Haskins and Martell. We may only have Dwayne for a year, but Tate is going to be good in his own right. Haskins is what you want at quarterback. H...

Favorite Stat of the Game: When you look at the team stats of this game Ohio State and TCU were virtually even everywhere except one vital spot. Turnovers. The Buckeyes forced three turnovers and gave up none. This was literally the difference in this game and is a quality of a championship team and...

Favorite Stat of the Game: 30 of 33 passing. Martell and Haskins combined to only miss three, yes THREE, passes on a soggy Saturday in the Shoe. I don’t care who you’re playing against to throw over thirty times and to only miss three is impressive. It’s even more impressive in soaked conditio...

Favorite Stat of the Game: 721 Total Yards and my favorite part of this stat is in a crucial word in college football; balance. 346 yards in the passing game, 375 yards in the rushing game. The Brooklyn Dagger Award: Mike Weber Jr. His 49-yard run to make the game 28-7 proved that the Buckeyes wo...

The Compliance reporting requirement / citation as a reason for the suspension is nagging at me.  It does not make sense. First, we must set aside that Compliance already knew about the incident (at least, Athletic Compliance did), because, as the report says, that does not relieve Urban or ...

Sad day today. I have been a member since 2012. And got the axe from commenting due to:   Sorry, but your helmet sticker balance is too low to comment. You have 334 helmet stickers, and need 500. i guess with the big news today they are trying to keep trolls away. I’m not a troll. ...

So I’m one.  I’m one of the 2% of the population that has a Ph.D.  I spent 3 years as a professor at a small private university and it was 3 years too long.  As I watched the press conference and listened to Dr. Drake explain his justification for the punishment, I couldn’t...

I’ve put this petition together for the future employees who do right and get wronged. This is not about football but real life. At no point should anyone other than Zach Smith be held responsible for Zach Smiths actions. The law, Zach and Courtney’s parents were all involved. Gene Smith knew&nb...
