Just a quick question for anybody who knows... Obviously, the Iowa game was last week and on hand was Justin Hilliard from Cincy checking out not only his Hawkeye brother, but the Bucks as well! Anybody know how his visit went? I looked around on some sites but didn't really catch anything to ho...
This is a section from GAMETIME's post and I think its one of the most insightful posts and gets to the heart of the problem (though I dont think I would agree with the last line, also dont know the source of the research he quotes). What do you guys think :

So we all knew last year we were going to be young and inexperienced on Defense this year. Losing some folks to injuries and a few suspensions created even more inexperience.
now seven games into the season the D is starting to pull things together (#15 in the country) yet it looks like we ar...
THE RUNNING START
TV: Saturday, 8:00 (ABC)
Ohio State leads the series 15-13-and is 9-7 against Penn State in Columbus.
Since 1993, the first year Penn State played football in the Big Ten, Ohio State has a 13-6 overall and 8-2 at home against the Nittany Lions.
The Buckeyes' lo...
Here they are! Thanks to Buckeyes8222, I remember how to do the more complicated calculations now. Again, although the process is objective, I acknowledge my probabilities of individual games are subjective, though I think this gives us a pretty good picture of where we are at. As ...
The debate over who is most deserving to play in the BCS NC is in full swing. It is amazing to see how passionate some fans and even national commentators are in their advocacy of Oregon/FSU/Baylor/Mizzou as the most deserving team to play in the title game. Two points are taken for granted by every...
I was reading through the blogs this morning, and when I saw all of the wailing and gnashing of teeth over the BCS and its unfairness (which I openly participate in, as well), I thought I'd look at the perception of the SOS or lack thereof for the 4 teams at the top. I looked at the records for ...
It is the elephant in the room, and it’s not invisible. It is pointed out by bloggers on the internet, and talking heads at ESPN. The Ohio State University Buckeyes, in its current state of being undefeated for 19 games in a row, is almost relegated to undefeat...
Another week and another opponent's defensive stats get flipped upside down.
It's always interesting to see how a team's stats change after playing Ohio State.
Below you will be able to compare Iowa's stats before playing and after playing Ohio State.
The Hawkeyes were able to i...
I live in Tennessee but spent time on a Big 12 campus (Kansas University) a PAC 12 campus (University of Washington) and most my youth and early college years were spent on a Big Ten campus (The Ohio State University) before finishing college in SEC country and now living were SEC's University o...
The Montreal Alouettes' quarterback carousel has taken a promising turn with 2006 Heisman Trophy winner Troy Smith.
The former Ohio State star who only joined the Alouettes in August threw three touchdown passes in his first CFL start as Montreal downed the Hamilton Tiger-Cats 36-5 to tig...
BURN IT. BURN IT ALL. IT HURTS SO MUCH I CAN'T BEAR IT ANYMORE! WHY IS ALABAMA STILL A TOP 3 TEAM? WHY IS TEXAS A&M STILL RANKED? WHY IS HOUSTON RANKED #26 EVEN THOUGH THEY SUCK? WHAT WILL IT TAKE TO GET WISCONSIN OR NEBRASKA IN THE TOP 25? BURN IT ALL!
BURN IT ALL TO A CD. THAT WAY, WE CAN...
Numbers can be fun as well as stats, they have nothing really to do with what happens on the field but can be predictors.
6-0 to 7-0
When tOSU is 6-0 our record for game 7 is 22-4 0.759. We are actually better on the road 11-1 0.917, than at home 11-3 0.786. G...
Bert,
Your team is on a four-game losing streak.
The average score in those losses? 19-39.
You just lost to South Carolina 7-52.
Yet, you felt the need to open your pie hole last week.
Quotes from Bert at an Arkansas booster club:
"I came to the SEC for a va...
Buckeye fans,
This may be completely redundant, but let's think about the good here. Last night we lost a battle to PSU for Mike Gesiciki's services for the class of 2014. Let me be clear, when we play PSU in 8 days... Mike might be a potential Nittany Lion, but he will see the real pr...
<poof>
Time Traveler here. Machine's on idle, I'll make this quick. Well, maybe not.
I saw Penult's explanation and defense of Corey Brown in Michael Citro's "Philly Brown: Comparison to Legendary OSU Receivers" article, and yes, Penult, I get it. ...
UPDATE: According to 11W Staffer Kyle Rowland (comment below)
The Purdue, Indiana and Illinois game times have not been announced. The Big Ten will announce those decisions two Mondays before the game. For example, Purdue will be announced this coming Monday.

Today's post about the offense not yet running full tilt, on all cylindars, got me thinking about how this year's team stacks up against some of the best Buckeye teams of days gone by, at least, during the Tressel era. Here's a recap from the front-page piece:
Ohio State ranks in the...
Hey Buckeye fans,
Just wanted to share yet another recruiting thread, but this time talk about someone who may becoming a popular target as of late for the good guys in scarlet and gray. As we all know, our offense and Urban need highly skilled receivers in order to function at the level we desire....
You would think that Ohio State and Iowa have been fairly even on the football field, but that would be surprisingly wrong.
Ohio State leads the all-time series 45-14-3, has was won 12 of the last 13 games and 27 of the last 32 games.
Quick Hitters:
Ranked Ohio State teams are 7-1 against unranke...
