Game Thread Ohio at #1 tOSU, Sat. Sept. 13th, 7 ET on Peacock

Remembering the mascot fiasco the last time Ohio State hosted Ohio

Both the Buckeyes and the Bobcats are hoping to avoid the same kind of nonsense that happened the last time these two teams met.

The Ohio State football program likes to pay to bring in other teams from the state of Ohio for a non-conference showdown. They like keeping those programs afloat by handing them some cash to help with their athletic departments. That's what they are doing with Ohio this weekend.

After destroying Grambling State last weekend 70-0, the Ohio State Buckeyes will welcome the Bobcats of Ohio to the Shoe. This is the first time that Ohio has visited the Shoe since 2010. The Buckeyes took down the Bobcats 43-7 in a game that was never close.

While it was a big win for Ohio State early in the season, that's not what that game was remembered for. In fact, it's remembered most today for something that didn't have anything to do with football. It's remembered for Ohio's mascot terrorizing Brutus prior to the game.

The Ohio State football program is hoping to avoid another mascot snafu vs. Ohio

Before the game started, Rufus the Bobcat decided to attack Brutus for no reason. He decided to try to fight him as the team came onto the field, and shortly thereafter, as well. You can see below just how unhinged the student is who is wearing the Rufus costume.

Ohio State hosts Ohio University on Saturday.

The last time these 2 played in 2010, Rufus the Bobcat brought the ruckus to Brutus the Buckeye.

2027 CA QB Brady Edmunds is a Buckeye!!!

What’s so cool, is that Edmunds plans on going to see his future teammate, Jamier Brown play against St. Ed’s Tonight. And then go to the OSU- Grambling game tomorrow

Ohio State QB commit went above and beyond to show he's all-in with the Buckeyes

This is what being committed is all about.

It looks like there's nothing, and we mean nothing, that's going to change the plans for elite quarterback prospect Brady Edmunds. He's been a longtime Ohio State football commit and it's safe to say that he's all-in when it comes to playing for the reigning champs down the road.

Need further proof of that? First, Edwards has already spurned outside interest from Oregon, Penn State and other schools working to record a flip. Then this past week, Edmunds showcased his Ohio State pride in the best way possible.

According to reporter Andrew Gillis, Edmunds flew from California to Columbus on Friday, drove to see his future teammate Jamier Brown in action, then returned to Ohio State to watch the Buckeyes dismantle Grambling State. Goodness:

QB Brady Edmunds could not be more committed to his future with Ohio State football

Last December, Edmunds surprised a lot of people by giving an incredibly early verbal to Ryan Day and his coaching staff. It remains a huge get for the Buckeyes, as Edmunds is ranked the No. 8 quarterback in the country, No. 9 player from California and No. 90 prospect nationally according to the 247Sports Composite.

Cleveland Browns (Factory of Sadness)


Imagine that. NFL owners paying for a new stadium themselves.

I thought this was impossible and if these poor owners had to fund these projects themselves their only option would be to move the team. (Note sarcasm font)

Alabama Crimson Tide (official thread of Football, Fake Championships and Banjo)

Alabama WR claims he can be better than Ohio State's Jeremiah Smith

That's a pretty bold goal that he has for himself.

Despite that fact, Alabama receiver Ryan Williams believes he will have something to say about that this year. In a recent interview with ON3, he acknowledged that Smith had the better freshman season, but he is hoping this year he can "flex".

Ryan Williams believes he can be better than Ohio State receiver Jeremiah Smith

Williams certainly has a lot of faith that he can be better than Smith, despite what Smith was able to accomplish as a true freshman a year ago.

Williams makes the second-most money of any wide receiver in the country, also behind Smith. Quite frankly, that's the way it should be. Smith is the most valuable player in the country, and his NIL money should reflect as such. That doesn't mean Williams is horrible by any means.

However, Williams is already way behind Smith's pace in 2025. He has just five catches for 30 yards in two games this season. Smith surpassed that total against Texas in the season-opener. It seems pretty far-fetched that Williams will have a better year than Smith at this point.

2025 scUM Shenanigans, Arguments - NCAA: no wins taken away, no postseason ban

From The Athletic: The NCAA expanded its penalties in 2024 to say that coaching suspensions could “potentially include all athletics activities between contests” as a way of holding coaches more accountable. Moore’s suspension, which was imposed by Michigan and approved by the NCAA’s Committee on Infractions, essentially splits the difference by sidelining Moore for two games and one whole week of practice.

And two weeks turns out to be only 8 or 9 days. "More accountable" my ass.
