Jenkins putting up 2,746 yards in years 2001, 2002 and 2003 just does not compute to my rational mind.

I saw the QB's he had. I saw the offenses he played in, the coach, the era.

Adjusted for inflation that's gotta be like 9,000 yards today.

Krenzel locked onto him and Gamble in ‘02. No one else had more than 17 receptions. In ‘03 it was him, Holmes, and Hartstock. They also played 27 games between 02 and 03 so that helped. No less impressive of a feat, though.

If we get one this year it sure isn't coming against scUM. With the chance of getting another playoff team on the line scUM will get away with murder

only 101 day, 2 hours, 8 minutes, and 47 seconds until first pitch of our title defense

As Urban would say ..... When we needed you the most, you gave us your very best.

Amazing play last night by Marvin. Actually running routes instead of a constant scramble drill every play.

17 games is crazy!

Ohio State opened its 2025-26 basketball season by scoring its second-most points ever in a game.
In a high-octane game with 130 combined field-goal attempts between the two teams, Ohio State shot 63% from the field to rack up 118 points in a 118-102 season-opening win over IU Indy.
Ohio State came within three points of the school record of 121 points, set on Jan. 8, 1995, against George Mason.
Three Buckeyes crossed the 20-point threshold, with center Christoph Tilly leading the way at 28 points in his Ohio State debut. Guard Bruce Thornton picked up 26 while forward Devin Royal added 22. Guard John Mobley Jr. had 16 points and eight assists, but also five turnovers.
Ohio State set a new school record for free throws made in a game as the Buckeyes hit 42 of their 53 attempts from the charity stripe. The previous record for free throws in a game was 38, set against Ohio in 2013 and Washington State in 1968.
It wasn't all sunshine and rainbows for the Buckeyes, however. Especially on the defensive end. A mid-major, no matter how fast-paced, racking up 102 points leaves clear areas for Ohio State to grow. The Jaguars hit 12 3-pointers. Guard Kyler D'Augustino and forward Kameron Tinsley paced them in scoring with 21 and 22 points.
It's the first time the Buckeyes have allowed 100 points to a team in regulation since 1998.

First Half​

IU Indy's entire program is built around pace. They never use much of the shot clock and apply a full-court press play as many possessions as possible, constantly swapping in and out five players at a time to run, run, run. It played into Ohio State's hands early.
The Buckeyes connected on each of their first eight field-goal attempts, getting a pair of 3-pointers from Thornton alongside one each from Mobley and Royal. A layup from center Christoph Tilly capped a 10-0 run that put Ohio State up 16-6 3:07 into the first half.
But the Jaguars hung tough. Their pace started giving the Ohio State defense problems, but some great contested makes were mixed in as well. A triple from IU Indy guard Maguire Mitchell cut the Buckeye lead to 20-15, though Ohio State extended it to back to nine with a pair of fastbreak baskets, including a beautiful passing sequence from Mobley to sophomore wing Colin White to freshman forward Amare Bynum for an alley-oop flush.

IU Indy responded with a 9-2 run that included a couple of contested makes around outside the restricted arc, cutting the Buckeye lead to 28-26, and the edge got as slim as 33-32 for Ohio State. But that's when OSU finally took control of the game.
Two intercepted passes by Royal kicked off a stretch of not one, not two, not three, not four, not five but six Jaguar turnovers in a span of 2:20. The Buckeyes took full advantage, launching a 13-0 run that included Tilly's first 3-pointer for Ohio State and four more fastbreak points from Royal.
A beautiful drive and reverse layup from Mobley, combined with a floater from Thornton and a Tilly fastbreak bucket, capped an 8-0 run a few minutes later and extended the Buckeyes' lead past 20 points for the first time at 56-35.
IU Indy cut back into the advantage a little bit with a few more fast makes, but a Royal second-chance layup off his own free-throw miss made it a 66-50 lead for the Buckeyes at halftime.

Second Half​

Tilly burst forth with offense to open the final period, collecting the first seven Ohio State points of the half to push the lead back over 20, 73-52. After another Mobley finish at the rim, Tilly showed off some gorgeous post footwork with a spin move to work himself open for a basket.
A D'Augustino triple capped a quick 5-0 stretch by the Jaguars that placed them back within 13 of the Scarlet and Gray, but Buckeye guard Taison Chatman answered with his first 3-pointer of the season on a clean pump-fake and step over. Forward Brandon Noel followed a Thornton miss with a hook shot, then Thornton stole a ball and took it coast-to-coast for a layup that re-extended the lead to 89-69 with 11:25 to play.
IU Indy never let the game get much further out of hand, however, as Ohio State's defense continued struggling with switches and communication against the Jaguars' relentless pace and space. A 10-2 run featuring five points from Tinsley pulled them back to within 14.
Two more triples, including one from D'Augustino, made it a 10-point game once more in the final six minutes. A 7-0 run from Ohio State effectively iced the game from there.

What's Next?​

Ohio State continues its season-opening home stand with another mid-major opponent, Purdue Fort Wayne, on Friday. Tipoff is at 6:30 p.m. on Big Ten Network.

Game Notes​

• IU Indy's constant press resulted in a lot of fouls from the Jaguars. They had 16 fouls in the first half alone, six of their players entered the locker room with two or more fouls. They finished with 36 fouls after adding 20 in the second half.
• Ohio State experimented with a small-ball lineup with three guards briefly, featuring Gabe Cupps, Mobley and Thornton as three guards with Royal at power forward and Bynum at center.
• The Buckeyes had some rough moments as the game went on against the press, finishing with 17 turnovers.
• There were 162 combined possessions in the game.

Marv’s too smooth to play for this team. Same place Fitz could never get a ring at.

AL doing their best impression of GA football players. University of Alabama Police Department attempted to stop a white Mercedes that was “exhibiting excessive speed and reckless driving,” police said.

“I CAN’T DEAL WITH IT.” Hours before Marvin Harrison Jr. ran out of the tunnel for Monday Night Football in Dallas, Marvin Harrison Sr. ripped into the Cardinals’ franchise in an interview with ESPN’s Josh Weinfuss.

"It's very hard for me to watch the Cardinals' offense," Harrison Sr. told ESPN. "And you can quote me on that."
A season and a half into his son's NFL career, the elder Harrison has been forced to grapple with being a former player who's the father of a current player. The balance needed to navigate that isn't always easy to find. Harrison Sr. can't help but watch his son's games with the critical eye of a former player, and he wants, desperately, to help his son, to tell him what to do, to try to fix Arizona's issues. But Harrison Jr. is an adult, a well-compensated professional, a fourth pick, and Harrison Sr. knows it's his time to sit on the sideline, watch and try to enjoy his oldest son's professional career.
But it's hard. The 53-year-old Harrison Sr. is aware of how he sounds.
"The style of offense that I am accustomed to, that I'm used to watching as a professional eye, as a wide receiver ... I just can't relate to watching that [current] offense, that style of offense," Harrison Sr. said. "Basically, I can't relate to what goes on there.
"I think that's just peacefully put, without pointing fingers or anything. It's just me. I'm giving you the professional eye. I can't relate to it. It don't add up to me. I can't deal with it."
…
Those words aren't new to his son.
Harrison Jr. has heard his dad's concerns and complaints dating back to last season. But Harrison Sr. walks a tightrope when he brings up football with his son, a rare occurrence these days. He stays away from talking about the day-to-day, not wanting to be an armchair quarterback from across the country because he's not there, in the meetings, and he doesn't understand the intricacies of the Cardinals' scheme like he did the Peyton Manning-led offense in Indianapolis.
"I don't get into what goes on the field and the things that I see," Harrison Sr. said. "I just leave it alone. I don't even bother bringing it up no more."

Sheesh.

Harrison Sr.’s harsh criticism paid off for Harrison Jr. — for now. The Ohio State great had seven catches for 96 yards and one touchdown in the Cardinals' 27-17 win over the Cowboys. We'll see if he can build off that performance next when Arizona heads to Seattle for an NFC West showdown with the Seahawks.

I think if they ran this model 20 more years, last year would stand out as an anomoly.
1 was boned when Ohio State lost to the cheaters and fell to #6 (and to a #8 seed).
2 was boned when they lost their quarterback.
3 was boned because they're Boise State.
4 was boned because they're Arizona State.
5 got boned because they had to play Ohio State.
6 was boned because they're Penn State.
7 lost because they had to play Ohio State.

All well deserved. Sonny Styles is incredibly underrated, but only because of the guys around him playing so great.

Didn't the 1-4 seeds all get knocked out in their first game? Doesn't say much for winning a conference championship or getting a first round bye.

Zurp, y’all just don’t understand how those SEC losses were “good losses” and not the kind that those other teams had.

OSU lost last year ..SEC said don’t put them this . 3 loss SEC teams come on down. The learned nothing from our beat down of Tennessee and Texas.
