Washington punt returner showing Buckeye-level punt returning judgment ...

Welcome back. I tend to shy away week 0-1, but I tossed a couple down with high unit investments.

LSU - 9.5
MIA - 23.5

I've got Ole Miss -5.5 going tonight.

Already put 25% of my bankroll on Oklahoma -5.5 vs scUM

I can't believe OU is only a -5.5 favorite against scUM. From what I saw last night, I'd put the number at more like -20.5

$1.1 million in LA and $600K in London don't buy you "lavish" residences.

They wear it like a badge of honor. The whole trolling online world people live in creates vacuums, which seems to be alive and well in every area of life now, but noticeably in sports and politics (whole other story). Their arrogance in the past has morphed into something next level.

Only concern I have is the OL. If they protect good enough I think we walk away with this one, if not it could be a stressful night

Texas has some nice weapons but Arch just isn't scary. I don't care how he looked against Texas State, he's always looked good against bad teams then when the competition level is more even he turns mediocre

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell agrees to four-year extension​

Goodell's contract will expire on March 31, 2031.

The NFL's current collective bargaining agreement, which Goodell helped finalize in 2020, expires in March 2031, when Goodell's new extension will expire.

Just Sayin 21 of 25 for 84% completion rate
J Jackson 10.4 ypc
B Jackson 9.2 ypc
L Bey 6.2 ypc
I West 5.4 ypc

It's pretty funny Bey clearly has some maturing to do on and off the field but the coaches are like "god damn man when this guy gets the football I dont know what to tell you"

Stock up report for Ohio State after beating Ball State​

Khary Wilder​

The true freshman defensive lineman flashed early for Ohio State and looked like a player who is going to have a role on the defensive line this season. Wilder generated a couple of pressures and was even rushing from the interior on some passing downs. It was a great day for him as the Buckeyes look for someone to be the No. 2 pass rusher opposite Kenyatta Jackson. Perhaps Wilder could be that guy.

Luke Fahey looks to have won the backup job over Tavien St. Clair​

A lot of the chatter over the last few weeks centered on a legitimate quarterback competition for the backup spot behind Sayin. The expectation was that Tavien St. Clair still held that job. He’s a former 5-star recruit and one of the top quarterbacks in the 2025 class, and he already had a full year in the program under his belt.

That’s what makes Saturday’s development so notable. It wasn’t St. Clair who entered the game as Ohio State’s No. 2 quarterback. It was freshman Luke Fahey.

Login to view embedded media
Fahey has been a bright spot in Ohio State’s freshman class this past offseason, and he asserted himself as a real competitor in the quarterback room throughout fall camp. Listed at just 5-foot-11, Fahey doesn’t fit the prototypical size profile, but his play earned him the opportunity over a player with more experience and recruiting pedigree. Fahey finished 5-of-7 for 62 passing yards, one passing touchdown, and one interception on a Chris Henry Jr. drop.

Even if the backup quarterback job isn’t fully solidified at this point, Fahey clearly owns the lead in that race. For him to leapfrog St. Clair is a significant statement about where things stand in that room.

Ryan Day all but confirmed an Ohio State football starter’s job isn’t safe after first win of the season​

Ohio State’s offense has a potential change that could come about following the Ball State game. Ryan Day’s comments opened the door for a chance to happen going forward potentially.



The Ohio State Buckeyes blanked Ball State 56-3 to open the 2026 season, a game that went about how everyone expected with the Buckeyes looking like the far superior team. Ohio State is set to pay Ball State $1.9 million to play the game, so dominance was the baseline expectation. The win served as a nice warm-up for what comes next week when Ohio State travels to Austin to play the Texas Longhorns.

Coming out of the victory, there were plenty of positives, but one glaring concern stood out and could become a real problem against Texas: the right tackle position.

Phillip Daniels struggled against Ball State​

Quarterback Julian Sayin was sacked a couple of times by Ball State on Saturday, and a couple of pressures came from the right side where tackle Phillip Daniels was working. Daniels, a former Minnesota transfer, started every game for the Buckeyes last year at right tackle. Ohio State returns the majority of its offensive line, and the unit is expected to be a strong suit in 2026.

The opener, however, gave a little bit of worry about whether the Buckeyes have a vulnerability on the right side.

Daniels simply didn’t play well against Ball State. For a couple of drives, Ohio State opted to move Austin Siereveld from right guard to right tackle and then inserted Gabe VanSickle at right guard. That offensive line combination produced better results than when Daniels was on the field, at least from the eye test. The viewing window was slim with VanSickle only getting a couple of drives, but it didn’t look bad. That could be the direction Ohio State has to go.

Ryan Day hints the offensive line competition is far from over​

After the game, Ohio State head coach Ryan Day all but confirmed the competition along the offensive line will continue.

“I think that is the flexibility that we have [playing depth OL], and the competition continues, and they’re pushing each other,” Day stated.
Those few words tell you Ohio State is not 100% settled on what its offensive line will look like in 2026. The Buckeyes have options, and Day appears willing to use them if they need to go that route

Ryan,
That was a good start. 8 catches for 150 some odd per half is the right play call (you know the play) mix.

You can lean on him more heavily in the bigger games.

-me

P.S. Not sure how I feel about that second half. Don’t make a habit of it.

Lane Kiffin dropped some comments after LSU’s blowout win over Clemson that Dabo Swinney is not going to recover from​

LSU was obviously confident going into the game, but even they may have been surprised at just how much of a beatdown it was against Clemson.

Kiffin, in fact, said after the game that he was surprised at how dysfunctional Clemson was on offense.

He also said the scout team scored more against LSU’s defense in practice this past week than Clemson did.

“I thought it’d be like 35-7 or 35-10,” said Kiffin on the field after the game (via David Hale). “I didn’t know they’d be that dysfunctional on offense.”

The first class I followed include KenYon Rambo

I'm glad he got one at the end. Dude seems to have no trouble getting open. Hopefully the drops were just first-game jitters, but it does seem like he needs to work on his strength to make contested catches like Jeremiah's first TD.

I think people will overreact to things they see, and Ohio State fans (I know everyone does) tend to forget the other team is going to give Ohio State its best shot right out of the gate, even in bodybag games.

I seriously doubt the defense did anything but basic stuff yesterday - I didn't get to watch much until the 4th quarter. If Ball State's coaches have any talent whatsoever, they know there would be some basic cover 3 defense going on most the day with not a lot of blitzing. Again I didn't see a lot, but if the tackling was good, the schematic stuff doesn't bother me much.

People might get caught up on the 1 team sack stat but their 330lb quarterback definitely didn’t have much time at all. Would be more curious about the hurries data if there are any.

For their first game as a unit I don’t see how anyone could be bothered. They were very sound but I’ll admit the front looked pretty lacksadasical.

Jesus man, he looks like a grown arse man that’s been in the NFL for two years already

He needs to play. The narrative that he’s going to “force himself on the field looks to hold true.”

I’d imagine those swing and flare routes are a really simple and nice way to acclimate him o the passing game.

If the secondary drops back and doesn’t sit in a zone, fling him the ball for an easy 5-8 yards. You can eat teams alive all night with the commitment they’re going to have to make against Smith and McCuin.
