Ohio State's scheduling big time non-conference opponents

When I hear about teams talking about how difficult their schedule is, it bothers me that Ohio State never gets enough credit for playing big-time non-conference opponents.

Just look at some of those opponents:
LSU 1987 & 1988
USC 2008 & 2009
Miami 2010 & 2011
Oklahoma 2016 & 2017
Notre Dame 2022 & 2023
Texas 2025 & 2026
Alabama 2027 & 2028

The Buckeyes fear no one!!!

I know you said "just some" of those opponents. But here's some more:
USC in the late 80s or early 90s. We got smoked in LA and then lost a close one in the rain at home.
Notre Dame in 95 and 96.
BC in the early 90s. I know they aren't always a powerhouse team, but those games were likely scheduled just after the Flutie years.
NC State in 03 and 04. Same deal - not a powerhouse team, but remember Phillip Rivers? He was no shlub.
Washington State in 02 was no shlub. There was supposed to be a return trip to Washington State, but they became a shlub so Ohio State cancelled that.
Washington in 07 and 08, I believe.
Oregon was supposed to be a 2-game series, starting in 21 or 22, I believe. But then they joined the Big Ten so they cancelled the second game.
Cal in 11 and 12, or something. I'm just kidding. They were terrible.

Penn State Cult (Joe Knew)

ScriptOhio
Just sayin': With all that cocaine you'd think Ped State would be higher than #9 on the "party school ranking".....:lol:


MY NAME IS ROD, AND I LIKE TO PARTY. Ohio State ranked No. 1 in the AP Poll released Monday, but that’s not the only top-25 list the Buckeyes made this week. According to USA TODAY, Ohio State is one of the best party schools in the United States, barely cracking the top 25 alongside universities like Tulane, Alabama, Florida State, Georgia and Wisconsin.

Here’s a look at the complete rankings, which USA TODAY averaged from seven lists, including one from The Wall Street Journal:
  1. Tulane
  2. Alabama
  3. Florida State
  4. Georgia
  5. Wisconsin
  6. West Virginia
  7. USC
  8. UC Santa Barbara
  9. Penn State
  10. Ole Miss
  11. Miami (Ohio)
  12. Arizona State
  13. Indiana
  14. Miami
  15. San Diego State
  16. Syracuse
  17. Colorado
  18. Illinois
  19. Howard
  20. Michigan State
  21. Iowa
  22. Arizona
  23. Dayton
  24. Delaware
  25. Ohio State

Minnesota Golden Gophers (official thread)

Compare that rep for the left tackle to what you saw from Ian Moore yesterday. The tackle needs to close the gap between himself and the pass rusher and not give the pass rusher the time or ability to build momentum and get his hands inside of the blocker. In the video, that left tackle was too passive and gave the pass rusher all of the advantages he wants (speed, aggressiveness). Also, that was the shittiest attempt at a chip block from a running back I've ever seen.
