QB Tavien St. Clair (Official Thread)

So, TSC has to dig in and learn this year so that he’s able to process and execute. Hot and certainly debatable take: We won’t win it all with a QB like Sayin or Fahey. We don’t win 2024 with Sayin although he’s obviously a much better passer (except, again, for being blind to the middle) than Howard. I think to win another NC we need TSC performing as a reasonable facsimile of Sayin.

Penn State Cult (Joe Knew)


So 31 people at NC State claim they were sexually abused. Not to poo-poo sexual abuse or the accusations, but Penn State fans behave very predictably.

Jim Valvano knew.
He had to know.

Show us proof that he knew (like the emails between others within the athletic department saying they talked to him, or an assistant coach who can testify that he talked to him), and we'll all agree that he should burn in hell. But simply "he had to know" doesn't make you look like the victim in the whole Penn State scandal, and doesn't exonerate Paterno.

Georgia Bulldogs (2021-2022 National Champions & Excellent Drivers)

Georgia could cancel its future matchups with Ohio State​

The Georgia Bulldogs are currently slated to play the Buckeyes in 2030 and 2031 in a home-and-home series. However, the Bulldogs just canceled their home-and-home with Clemson, meaning Ohio State could be next. This is now the fourth home-and-home future matchup the Bulldogs have canceled.

This is clearly a result of the SEC moving to nine games in the conference slate, and teams are scared to schedule tough opponents. While Ohio State is still looking to play quality opponents, other top programs are afraid that losing such a game could threaten their chances of making the College Football Playoff.

Next season, the Buckeyes are going to take on Alabama. It's highly unlikely that the home-and-home is canceled, as it is too close for them to make that call. However, the Bulldogs could pull the plug on this series and end up scheduling an FCS cupcake instead, as most other SEC programs do.

If the CFP expands to 24 teams, there could be a better incentive for teams to schedule big non-conference matchups as resumes get diluted in a bigger playoff field. Canceling this matchup would be a shame for both fan bases, who both love seeing games like this.


To be fair, FSU cancelled on us.
Demanding a payout game in Nashville.

But yes - I'm worried.

2026 tOSU Offense Discussion

There needs to be some philosophy changes.

I feel like we're going to be seeing that moving forward.

Art needs to get his act together, the fails on 3rd downs and redzone debacles are on him. Hopefully Day forces some change here.
Art Smith's hire was a head scratcher for me

2026 tOSU Offense Discussion

I can’t stand the tight end usage. We insist on throwing out 2-3 tight ends meaning we for sure don’t have our best 11 on the field. For the most part they’re non functional in the passing game and they’re a liability in the rush attack.

At this point just put Cook and Daniels in tight end numbers and bring them in to block. At least they’ll have an advantage in the run game.

But you’re right it’s not going anywhere. It’s been here since Ryan Day took over and it’s only increased in usage. Shit we had one of the best receiving tight ends in the country last year and we still couldn’t do anything with that group.

Game Thread Illinois at tOSU, Sat. Sept. 26, 12pm ET, FOX

Bo Jackson is who he is. I don't think "make guys miss" is really a skill that you learn. You either have it or you don't.
I can confirm this. My “make you miss” move was to run horizontally instead of the typical vertical.

It’s just like vision tbh, something you just are blessed with.

QB Tavien St. Clair (Official Thread)

Let's be real here though - Fahey is a 3 star because he's 5'10, not because he's a bad QB. If he was 6'3 he would have been a high 4 star.
Fully agree. But he'd also be a 5star based on the competition he faced and the offense he ran. TSC didn't have that same HSFB experience, and its showing now. Fahey can throw guys open and read defenses, something TSC hasn't learned yet, because he never had to
