Spot on every f'n time

Well, maybe the injured ankle will keep him from getting banged up, while awaiting his turn at tOSU RB. Given that it appears that we have RB1 and RB2 for the next couple of years, can see the need for a bigger style back to work the short yardage situations. CJ started out well, but didn't continue towards the end of the season. Seems like the cold makes for more injuries, so we'll see what the transfer portal provides in January. There's a bunch of seniors, but tOSU looks to still be a young team, especially on offense. Will lose a bunch of D to graduation/end of eligibility/going pro/transfer at the end of our next championship run. Go Bucks!

Ditto.

If I am a top recruit or current player, I am considering not only the developmental value playing on a Day-coached team, but also the fact that he considers carefully the cumulative effects of the number of plays on your body and runs a slow tempo game for that reason. The value of this for the upcoming NC run is important.

True. On the other hand, Michigan and Texas can guarantee you'll be playing in as many as 4 fewer games per year.

Everyone knows the rules.

Pavia should win the Heisman in my opinion.

I for one hope he stays so that Patricia can continue to wipe his ass with him.

OK, now the Buckeyes are on THEIR run. Just notched win #1, only 19 more to go....

The greats show up in The Game. He certainly did in his first shot at it.

Pavia at 3rd is hilarious. He doesn't have another opportunity to "impress" the voters. He does have good stats though. About 1000 more total yards, 6 more total TDs, and 3 more ints than Julian.

Surprised Stockton and Simpson aren't up there, they have another game against each other to make a case. Although both of their performances this week were not great.

I saw a promo for him on ESPN that was a mash up of all other SEC Heisman winning QB's. They called it SEC Heisman winner.

They continue to the path to being the WWE of college football.

I still say he catches that first TD chance he had earlier in the season.

I think Day is telling the truth about him being very limited.

As an Ohio State coach (2017 OC, 2018 Acting HC, 2019, 2021-2025) Ryan Day is now 4-4 against TCUN. Drop the two years of cheating openly, he is now 4-2.

It is now 365 days since TCUN has beat Ohio State.

If the cheating and 2024 hadn't happened he would have never snapped into aggressive Ryan Day and the playoff run doesn't happen. He is still playing not to lose.

"Here is my best, this is what I do. If you stop it then good on you but I'm not going to play scared of failing. I'm going to swing." That mindset takes him away from what coaches like Cooper did when they had great talent.

Honest to Woody, if that's what it took to get this guy to go from pretty solid to evil legend then it was worth it. It was a brutal journey for everyone but now you've got a guy who competes the right way. Relaxed, confident and focused. You see guys dialed in like that and you get up from the table and find another game.

Sayin....

He didn't throw back-to-back incompletions after that disastrous opening possession and was lethal when Ohio State needed him most. On third and fourth down snaps, Sayin completed 7-of-8 passes for 73 yards, five first downs and two touchdowns with four rushes for three first downs in a Heisman-worthy performance.
