And all I heard all week is how electric these running backs are for Texas. Even from OSU folks like Zach Smith it was about how amazing their skill is.
Yeah well they had 12+ rushes for 0-2 yards and if Texas State didn’t turn the ball over it’s likely 21-14 nearing half time.
Ohio States offense and defense traded turns in fall camp getting the best of each other. That’s good that’s sort of what you want. All we heard all Texas camp was how their defense was kicking the shit out of their offense. I’m sorry but the 2025 buckeyes defense they aren’t so that leads me to believe their offense isn’t what they say it is.
OSU has the best unit in this game. The offense and imo this is not as good of a defense as last years Texas defense. Hill is better than Biles, their safety play was better with Taffe and their defensive line was better with Trey Moore. You throw in a more aggressive Muschamp and I can very much see how this game gets away from Texas.
You have an error ridden QB, a coach calling plays that isn’t much special after the first script (going against someone accustomed to calling plays vs Andy freaking Reid), and a defense that was built to be Ohio States Kryptonite potentially playing exactly into the type of game plan that gets teams on the wrong side of an ass beating.
OSU can certainly lose the game and there’s a few paths for that, but if OSU protects the ball and Julian Sayin I don’t think it’ll be within 2 scores.
