2025 tOSU Offense Discussion

Buckeneye
QB might not always be the engine to the vehicle, but they are always the steering wheel. And we're breaking in a new one. That much couldn't have been said last year as Howard was a previous multi year starter at a D1 school.

Therein lies the difference - we had starting experience under center, now we have a passer who has taken less than a handful of snaps in his entire career. Combine that with the loss of RB talent and the shift in OCs, I fully expect some growing pains.

Surrounding talent is fantastic, no reasonable mind will argue against it. Sans the Center, the two spots that handle the ball the most are traffic light green.

Could this offense be better than 2024 by season's end? Absolutely. But it takes some serious rose colored glasses to believe they'll come out of the gate firing.

Seriously though, according to a Google's AI Overview (oh the irony):

"A city's power consumption varies greatly depending on its size, population, and industrial activity. A city of 1 million people might need anywhere from 500 MW to 1500 MW of power, according to some estimates, depending on whether it's in a highly industrialized or less power-hungry region."

So, if I understand all this correctly, and assuming about 2 million people in the Columbus MSA, a 5 gigawatt data center would use between about 1.7 and 5 times as much electricity as the rest of Columbus. That seems like a lot.

Before the night started, i was rooting for a Cruz/Raleigh final, oh well. Raleigh is an absolute dog!

I need to know how long Cruz's shot in the 2nd round was, they didn't say anything official, but it seemed like it was further than his 513.

even my non sports interested wife took notice of that one. Good Lord that ball was smoked

2025 tOSU Offense Discussion

Captain Buckeye
I think this years offense will be better than last years if I’m being honest.

Offensive line should be better and deeper, WRs largely return, running backs obviously not quite as good, but the tight end room is far better.

An underrated part is how we seemed to figure out the run game late last year during our playoff run. We no more went with stretch but instead pounded teams with gap schemes. I think this will continue with a better and deeper OL which should give a player Peoples (who’s going to play with something to prove) room to run.

Then you have Smith to deal with who’s up to 225 at 6’4”. They couldn’t stop him last year so what will they do against a better version? Oh and btw Tate/Innis/Graham are standing next to him if it wasn’t hard enough to cover Smith.

Then once you’ve committed enough resources to stop the run, figured out a way to stop Smith, and stopped the other WRs now you have to deal with Klare at TE who’s the best receiving tight end in the country. Then btw can’t stop our run? Don’t worry it gets easier when we throw out Will and Bennet as blocking tight ends (arguably the better two blocking tight ends in the country).

If the QB doesn’t piss down their leg we will be better than last year. Literally all the QB has to do is complete 60+ % of their throws and don’t throw picks. Do that and it’s going to be very difficult for teams to stop this offense.

Meta announces plan to build multiple 5 gigawatt data centers the size of Manhattan to support AI. A 2 gigawatt center is planned for New Albany Ohio. If that’s how much power and real estate it takes to support AI in its current form, I’d say the technology has a scaling problem.

Just for reference, it only takes 1.21 gigawatts to travel through time, so we’re talking about a lot of juice here.
