Ohio State Wrestling (2015/2017/2018 B1G Champs, 2015 National Champs, 2019 National Runners-up)

I never had a doubt he would get a TD. Not once...
Same, he went with a great shot selection where Amos couldn't use his weight as much. Really nice dual win with both Bouzakis and Canon out. Now let's hope to be fully healthy to finish out the regular season duals.

Caden Curry won not one, not two, but three national defensive player of the week awards for his dominant performance vs. Washington.

The Ohio State defensive end was named Tuesday as the Walter Camp National Defensive Player of the Week, the Chuck Bednarik Player of the Week and the Bronko Nagurski National Defensive Player of the Week after he recorded 11 total tackles with five tackles for loss and three sacks in Ohio State’s 24-6 win over Washington.

Curry shares Bronko Nagurski National Defensive Player of the Week honors with fellow Ohio State defensive lineman Kayden McDonald, who was likewise dominant against the Huskies with seven tackles, three tackles for loss and two sacks

2025 tOSU Defense Discussion

Grading Ohio State's 2025 Defense Position-By-Position

161396_h.jpg


The Matt Patricia experiment proved to be a smashing success for Ohio State in 2025. However, as important as schematics are, the most important element to high-quality football is high-quality players. The Buckeyes had high-quality players on their 2025 defense.

Kayden McDonald, Arvell Reese, Sonny Styles and Caleb Downs have a great chance to give the Silver Bullets a first-round 2026 NFL draft pick at every level of the defense. More All-Big Ten performers like Caden Curry and Davison Igbinosun supported them.

Ohio State finished the season with the No. 1 scoring and total defense in college football. The Buckeyes’ defense fueled a key victory over Texas to open the season and stifled almost every attack Michigan offered in The Game. Even as the offense sputtered in the Big Ten Championship Game against Indiana, the Silver Bullets battled time and again to keep a win within sight.

Miami wore down Ohio State’s front in the College Football Playoff quarterfinals and salted away a win with its running game, but that’s one of the very few blemishes on the résumé of an elite 2025 Buckeye defense. Spoiler: There are lots of As on this report card.

Defensive Line - Grade: A-

Linebackers - Grade: A

Safeties - Grade: A+

Cornerbacks - Grade: B+

That date places it one week later than Ohio State played its spring game in 2025, with the Buckeyes taking the field on the third Saturday of April rather than the second Saturday. The spring game will be the culmination of OSU's spring practice, which begins on March 10.

Tickets for the spring game will go on sale starting Feb. 20 at 10 a.m. through the athletics website.

2027 OH LB Brayton Feister (Verbal Offer)

excellent analogy... Hoban was going to use him primarily as a LB this year but when they couldn't run the ball in the first couple games, they had to put him back into the backfield.. Would love to see what he could do on the edge..

Watch out for Wisconsin... Wisconsin is all over the whole Hoban team.. and has been for years
I think right now, Oregon has been the leader for Feister, and Arizona St also has been in the mix hard with him for a while too. I'm sure OSU's offer will change things. Not sure what it means for ND though since they lost 2 LB coaches this week
