2027 FL DB Angelo Smith is a Buckeye!!!

Before we react shouldn’t we have better insight into Smith’s degree of reaction? Any school could offer, many likely have, but his response to those offers tells the story IMO. If he’s all Buckeye those offers will come and go, if he sees better opportunities with Hartline, due to familiarity with the coach, then he’ll likely tip his hand soon enough.
Just not sure the offer itself tells us much at this point.

2025 College Football Playoffs Discussion (12 Team Format)

The change was already going to happen but yes, these ratings are going to suck something fierce.

We should remember this the next time someone starts their CFP format proposal with "auto bids" and "win your conference or stay home" kind of structure.

No one wants to watch this shit.
Being on TNT, TBS, TruTV, or HBO probably didn't help much either.

2025 Cotton Bowl: #2 tOSU vs #10 Miami-FL, Wed 12/31 7:30 ET at JerryWorld

Honestly my biggest worry, for the entirety of the playoffs really, is if the offensive brain trust loses their minds when crunch time comes. As poorly as the OL played against Indiana, they still adjusted towards the end and played well enough to mount a few long drives. Then 3rd and 1 came lol. Miami's defense line is very good but from what I know about them, their secondary is mediocre. I think OL protects Sayin long enough to complete a few long bombs and that might be enough.
Yes. Miami is likely better than IU up front but the IU back 7 is far better than Miami. Give Julian time and we should be in business.

I want to see urgency from this staff on offense. If we are winning 28-7 then by all means go for a 8 minute drive. But if it’s 7-0 in the first I don’t want to see a 9 minute drive which ends in getting stopped on 4th down inside the 5 or a field goal attempt.

Pedal down man. Snap the ball with 15 seconds left, get up to the line without a huddle, and just go.

Miami (FL) Hurricanes (1926-2003)

The aTm OL started it by talking about him in an interview. Bain finished the conversation. I have no problem with it, he and several other aTm players ran their mouths and couldn’t back it up.
I hate them for thinking that theyre in anyway in the same sentence of the great Miami teams. The only similarities are the colors. The last time Miami beat OSU it took OSU being down their starting QB, RB, WR and DE. Miami ain’t Indiana, closer to Illinois, they are in for quite beating
Still doesn't change the way he went about it. Fuck him, fuck Miami, and fuck Cokehead Irvin.

After the performance by the OL last time I suspect the OL wants to redeem themselves. Add that with knowing their DL is their strength and without a doubt I expect their best in 9 days.

I also think the staff isn’t going to just drop back and keep Julian stationary too. They’re going to start moving him, and certainly calling plays that aren’t as long developing. Unsure why but there were a ton of long developing plays vs IU.

No this shit should be variable, realistically it should be 4 maybe 5 this year. We’re gonna end up with 4 more game like Aggy vs Da U and OU vs Bama. None of those 4 teams belong in the playoffs
You’re not wrong, but top tier college football is a professional sport now. So the only metric that matters for the playoff team selection process is maximizing television revenue. The playoffs are going to expand to at least 16. We’ll be lucky if it doesn’t expand beyond that. If you think it’s bad now, wait until private equity gets involved.
