Game Thread Rutgers at #1 tOSU, Sat. Nov. 22nd, 12 pm ET, FOX

Hope Tate and Smith can play a few drives just to warm up for next week and then Sayin gets more reps with the young WRs.
Agreed that if they are good to go they should get a couple of series just to keep the chemistry with Sayin. But outside of that, god forbid needing them to play, let them enjoy a game from the sidelines. Note: 'enjoy' is probably not how they feel about not playing.

2026 tOSU Recruiting Discussion

Looks like USC is throwing a bag swing at KDW. They can sell a easier path to early playing time too. I guess if there's one position it doesn't hurt to get poached on its WR but still stinks.
I'm sure they are and you get concerned any time that happens, especially with the home team throwing the bag. I'm not so sure USC is really the fast lane to playing time for KDW over us. Yeah we've recruited week but he'll walk in the door with some mix of top WRs going pro and the inevitable transfer(s) for those players that can read between the lines at the end of spring ball. At worst he probably sees the field with only 1 year of Smith left (or none), same goes for Innis, and who knows on Tate. Then you have potential transfers or guys that a player like KDW should compete with or pass on the depth chart. Staying home could win the day, but I don't see competing for PT in his first year or two being an issue.

Big Ten and other Conference Expansion

From what I gather the 21 years wasn't a locked in tv deal it was the grant of rights which essentially grants the B1G as entity your TV rights to shop. Aka the thing holding the ACC together. Aka USC and Michigan don't want tied to Rutgers and Purdue for 21 years.

Yea, this is why the lesser teams want this, the realignment security. Why we want it though, I have no idea.

RB James Peoples (National Champion)

PPF Grades: Running Backs (vs UCLA)​

James Peoples: 86.7 (16 snaps)...... 6 carries, 42 yards, 2 TDs, 1 reception, 5 yards
Bo Jackson: 76.1 (35 snaps)...... 15 carries, 112 yards, 1 TD
Isaiah West: 67.4 (19 snaps)...... 8 carries, 61 yards, 1 TD, 2 receptions, 12 yards

Just sayin':

1. Since Peoples graded out as the highest RB I'll say he did a better job blocking than the other 2.
2. After a slow start this season where he went from RB1 to RB3 or even RB4; I'll say (in the last few games) Peoples is now working his way back for more PT and/or carries.
Its one game, but Iron sharpens Iron. If he wants to get on the field he will just have to keep fighting like this. I love it!
