DC Matt Patricia (Official Thread)

I've always felt the same about OSU teams, just flip the offense and defense. For various reasons, I've always "liked" teams that were more carried by the defense. 2013, 2018, and 2020 through 2022 were comparative nightmares for me to watch as a fan.

This year's a damn treat to see
Ditto. It feels dirty winning with a weak defense. They signify a lack of toughness and discipline. Plus, it's almost impossible to win a national championship without an elite D, but it is possible to win without an elite O

2025 scUM Shenanigans, Arguments, Arrogant Twatwaffles, Emasculated Cucks, Feckless Marmots, Dirty Cheaters

Yeah. I don't get it. These teams just forget how to tackle.
And Underwood looks like a 50% completion QB, but then threads the needle on 3rd and 15 for a first down.

Teams suddenly forget how to do everything. The Washington QB made all of his worst throws of the season in that game. It's just laughable. A 7-7 game turned to 21-7 in a blink because of 2 inexplicably terrible throws.

Sparty can't forget how to play well because they haven't played well all year. Maybe they can ride to the occasion and salvage their season. They have some decent WRs they should just go air it out against scUMs mediocre secondary. But they'll probably try to keep running it with their rushing offense that's averaged under 4 YPC as a team on the season.

Then why share? Did everyone just collectively forget the axiom that not everything on the internet is true?

Another thing for TCUN to be proud of...
You just accepted a random tweet as fact?


Fuck scUM and all but goddamn guys

I’ve always been more a fan of the O than the D… in football as well as in my own sport, I was primarily on O.

That said, I’ve never in my life enjoyed watching a defense as much as I have this year. Wowza. I’m sure that someone here has said it, sorry for not giving specific credit, but when you have better players you can run a pretty ‘basic’ (that’s the word used, wasn’t it?) defense and still win a LOT of games. We’re seeing what talent combined with higher level schemes can do. It’s real and it’s spectacular.

Will continue to update…

Through (7) games in 2025, OSU has (21 sacks).

In 2024, through the first (7) games they had (15) sacks.

Thats a 40% increase over 2024 in which we had studs across the defensive line.

Just an amazing defensive season thus far.

High School Ohio High School Football General Discussion

I hear you, but it's still not that easy as it takes two to tango and you're also gambling on how a team is going to do. Athens looks like they played their 6 conference foes and then...

* Warren D3
* Logan D2
* Marietta D3
* Paint Valley D6

So 3 of their 4 OOC were their largest division opps. Unfortunately those teams have combined to go 4-32, and it's all about wins (and who your wins beat), so they're not picking up any multiplier points. Like @Mike80 said though, they are in a meat grinder of a region. It's a rarity, and if they win Friday it'll take care of itself as Nelsonville-York is 9-0 so they get their own playoff game before the playoffs.
Columbus Independence got the shit kicked out of them last night by Walnut Ridge (who might actually be decent to good), so Athens just needs to win and they're in.

Penn State Cult (Joe Knew)

Interesting to note how quickly UF is moving and how quickly PSU is moving.

Lane to UF is essentially done after Marcus Freeman told Florida "No thank you"

I'm assuming Penn State has its eyes on the NFL based on the lack of rumors.

Is LK to UF really a done deal? I thought that he gave some report a bunch of shit in his presser this week about running his mouth (keyboard) and hiding behind ‘sources.’

People to Punch, Pet Peeves, and General Vexations (mega-merge)

Is it too late to add news articles that are either written by AI or edited by them? The local news websites in NE OH are getting so bad with them. I was reading an article earlier today about the Guardians and Clase's suspension. In most of the article it had him identified as Class A.

People to Punch, Pet Peeves, and General Vexations (mega-merge)

New pet peeve: people who live in the central time zone. All of them. All of you.
Tomorrow's game doesn't begin at 2:30. It begins at 2:30 Central Time. I don't fucking care who the home team is.
Tomorrow's game starts at 3:30. Or, if you want to specify, it starts at 3:30 Eastern Time, or 3:30 American Time.
And since I am declaring Eastern Time to be American Time, Central Time is now Commie Time. All you central time zone commies are really living in commie time.
Go play with some skunks, you commies.
How often do fellow OH residents encounter people who think the state is in the Central time zone? I get it maybe once every few months.
