2026 Polls

I dropped the Buckeyes to #10 in my latest ballot.




Just kidding. I haven't had a vote in years. Here is how everyone voted individually in the AP for Ohio State (note my good friend Rece Davis has Ohio State at #4 in this week's ranking):

Game Thread tOSU at Iowa, Sat. Oct. 3rd, 3:30 pm ET, CBS

Just sayin': Could Iowa be the "trap game" in 2026?

They going to be looking ahead to Maryland?

It will be tough because it's Iowa who are always physical and fundamentally sound, it's almost certainly going to be played at night and cancer kids will be involved.

Bucks still have to win this. They lose to Iowa and the wheels are coming off.

HC Ryan Day (B1G Coach of Year, B1G Champion, National Champion)

Shitty comparison coming but it keeps popping in to mind...

Teams like Penn State or Alabama can never have cool flashy uniforms. The fans and the program just won't allow it, for reasons that are kind of silly if you really take a step back and ask the question "Why aren't we allowed to modernize?". Oregon is allowed to. They built an entire program around it from nothing. Miami is allowed to. All the "lesser" teams can change uniforms and nobody will be "angry" about it. But teams with historical significance......or in the case of Penn State, a cultish foundation.....won't allow for it.

I feel like the same can kind of be said about many things Ohio State does. For some stupid reason, we're not "allowed" to be flashy and open and fun on offense. We're supposed to line up with 3 TEs and tell you what we're doing and be better than you anyways. Fucking why? Why does it have to be like that? Why can't we have a fun ass offense where the players enjoy being part of it? Because of the status quo of 100+ years? I love me some tradition, but we're allowed to open things up and just have fun. We did it 2 years ago for an important string of games and it worked out pretty damn well. Every game should be played the way we played against Tennessee and Oregon. It makes 0 sense why we don't. If you want to work on certain aspects of the game.....do it in the 3rd and 4th quarters after we're already up 50.

Honestly I think it's more from a place of "we have better players than everyone else, we should be able to line up and take whatever the opponent gives us" type of thing than a tradition bound thing.

Cooper was like this, he tried to be all things at all times but never had a real identity.

"Talented" is not an identity.

Game Thread Kent State at tOSU, Sept. 19th, 12pm ET, FOX

Cardale is an arrogant a$$. He made plenty of mistakes when he was behind Center. And only played because of injuries to other QBs.
I've never seen him as arrogant. But he does know when a QB ain't it, and he found out he ain't it. I enjoyed his run in the B1G leading us to a Natty though.

Cincinnati Bearcats (Juggalos official thread of Faygo)

This seems worse than fans storming the field to me since it's not the fans who are trolling Miami. Some fanbases are worse then others, but fans in general are idiots. In this case it appears the UC Athletic Department is the one doing the trolling, and they should know better.
But do they really?
