Fancy title for a glorified escort

Worth noting that PSU's first game in January without Mingo was a 74-72 loss against UM, so his absence obviously did not prevent PSU from putting forth a competitive effort against the B1G's best. They also played a close game @ Purdue without Mingo as well. I'm fully expecting PSU to fight today & doubt losing Mingo will harm them much, if at all.

They are already 233rd in defense according to KenPom. Losing their best defender definitely doesn't help.

You would think that at first glance, but it's PSU. Their backups are about the same quality as their starters. This just means Tunca will play more, and he scored 13 points in 18 minutes of Game 1 between these schools. Rice scored a career-high 20 against OSU, this gives him more of a path to PT as well. Those guys will be able to fill the void offensively, the only question is will they be as capable defensively.

Mingo is also Ped State's 2nd lead scorer and their top assist man. That's a very key missing player for them.

College Football Spring Rankings 2026: CFN Top 25​

CFN reveals its 2026 College Football Spring Top 25, including the expectations, transfer impact, and bold predictions heading into the season.

1 Ohio State​

Ohio State was the No. 1 team at the end of the regular season, and yet 2025 didn’t represent the program’s best work. No one can touch the Buckeye superstars on offense, and the defense just brought in an NFL Combine's worth of transfers to take over.

Last year, Ohio State was almost forgotten about over the second half of the season with its relatively easy slate. This year? At Texas, Illinois, at Iowa, at Indiana, at USC, Oregon, at Nebraska, Michigan. (The 2026 season can’t get here fast enough.)

2025 Record: 12-2
CFN 2025 Preseason Rank: 4
CFN 2025 Final Rank: 4
Top Transfer In: James Smith, DT Alabama
Top Transfer Out: Quincy Porter, WR to Notre Dame
2026 Realistic Expectation: Win the national championship (and beat Michigan)
- 2026 Ohio State Schedule Analysis

2 Oregon
3 Indiana
4 Notre Dame
5 Georgia
6 LSU
7 Miami
8 Oklahoma
9 Texas
10 Texas Tech
11 Alabama
12 USC
13 Ole Miss
14 Texas A&M
15 BYU
16 Michigan
17 Washington
18 Arizona
19 Penn State

21 South Carolina

RIP, Lou. Thanks for your efforts as an assistant on the 1968 Buckeye National Champs.

But I’ll always remember that during your entire life span, the Buckeyes NEVER LOST TO NOTRE DAME.

Lou Holtz was an assistant coach for the Ohio State Buckeyes football team in 1968, when the team won the national championship. Holtz was part of Woody Hayes' coaching staff.

From 2005 to 2014 Lou Holtz worked at ESPN a College Football Show with Trev Alberts and Mark May (who both hated Ohio State with a passion), Lou usually stuck up for Ohio State.



R.I.P.

I think of low leverage middle relievers as your innings eaters that are asked to come in when your team is behind. Your setup guys are asked to protect a lead of three runs or less after the 5th inning. IMO, there is a big difference between the two.

But I will reiterate I am fine with heisman’s categories.

Agree and agree.

BYU is a 6-seed by Lunardi with a 8-9 conference record.

The line opened OSU -8.5 and has gone down to OSU -6.5. Analytics give OSU a 75-77% chance of winning, but obviously PSU will put up a fight with their last home game of the season here tonight.

Like clockwork
