Of course they do.

TCUN in 2023, our guys last year.

Extremely veteran teams.

With essentially the entire offense back in 2026 the defense just has to be great (not elite). Someone like Koi would borderline get this team to maintain the elite status provided we add on the DL too.

Seems we are strong candidates to get the #1 LB too. So if we can backfill with 4 kids from the portal on defense we are in business that’s for sure.

Non-Playoff Bowl Games Discussion Thread

ScriptOhio
Duke's Mayo Bowl
ESPN
8:00 PM
Wake Forest (8-4) vs Mississippi State (5-7)

In the 2025 college football season, several 5-7 teams declined bowl bids, including Florida State, Auburn, UCF, Baylor, Kansas, Rutgers, and Temple, primarily to focus on player development and the transfer portal, disrupting bowl-filling efforts for games like the Birmingham Bowl. These teams often expected their season to be over and had already moved on, making it difficult to field a team, unlike some bowl-eligible teams that also opted out due to coaching changes or playoff snubs.

Birmingham Bowl: Georgia Southern (now 7-6) 29 defeated Appalachian State (now 5-8) 10.

Just sayin': When 5-7 gets you into a bowl game (needless to say) there are just too many bowl games.

2025 College Football Playoffs Discussion (12 Team Format)

Holy shit. The Sirius morning guys went ballistic on the sec. They must have been reading this board. They used the phrase "preseason sec hype," talked about how inflated rankings pump up the quality of wins and negate their losses and even mocked Greg Sankey pounding his fist on the table to hype the conference.

I wonder who'll be hosting that show next week.

2026 tOSU Special Teams Discussion

ScriptOhio

Former Ohio State star sends Ryan Day some important transfer portal advice after Cotton Bowl loss to Miami​

The former Buckeyes star wants a major change made in how the team attacks the transfer portal this year.

Fresh off a frustrating Cotton Bowl loss to the Miami Hurricanes, the Ohio State Buckeyes staff has plenty to do this offseason. It was an impressive campaign for much of the regular season for them, but the ultimate goal was not achieved. They fell short, and clear holes on the roster made a massive difference in the end for OSU.

The transfer portal will play a key role in creating another dominant roster for the Buckeyes in 2026, but an underrated need is already getting pointed out as one that must be addressed in an impactful way by Ohio State’s staff and NIL plan.

Garrett Wilson pushes Ohio State to find top kicker after loss to Miami​

Former Buckeyes wide receiver and first-round pick of the New York Jets Garrett Wilson was understandably concerned with the inconsistency on special teams this season for Ohio State. He made that clear on social media, placing some pressure on head coach Ryan Day to go “big fish hunting” at kicker.

Just sayin': So far here are the kickers in the transfer portal....


Does anybody actually stand out as a "top kicker"?

I agree. Go to 16 teams, get rid of conference championships (if we were co champions this year then so be it), first two rounds on campus, and my recommendation is re-seed every round so the top seeds play the lowest remaining seeds.

Or shoot let the top seeds pick who they’ll play (this would be hilarious).

Yup, re seed every round as well, there needs to be incentive to finish in the top rung.
