If an opponent wants to stop us running the ball, they can. That is concerning.

Let a team get lucky and play us in bad weather where we can't make them pay by passing and we could easily get beat.

Good news is in the playoff era, 1 game isn't a season wrecker and the playoff games will not involve bad weather.

Former Ohio State football player Demario McCall sentenced to 7-10 years in prison​

Earlier this month, McCall was sentenced to 7-10 years in prison after pleading guilty to drug possession and drug trafficking charges. He pleaded guilty to trafficking in cocaine, possession of cocaine, trafficking in a fentanyl-related compound, possession of a fentanyl-related compound, trafficking in drugs, possession of drugs, receiving stolen property, and possession of criminal tools.

In a separate case, he also pleaded guilty to trafficking in cocaine, possession of cocaine, trafficking in a fentanyl-related compound, and possession of a fentanyl-related compound. It's a very sad fall from grace for a former Buckeye football player who played for a national championship.

Unfortunately for McCall, he will now spend a lot of time thinking about what he's done. He never had a shot to make the NFL, and he wasn't able to move on. There's hope that he can atone for what he's done when he is released from prison, as everyone deserves a second chance.

They are the best defense..you don’t need to take the shine of Caden to hype others. Caden is moving up draft boards which is not about Stats. They all can and will eat. That was stupid nut not as stupid as saying Downs had a poor game.As many did.

DT Luke Fickell (HC Wisconsin Badgers)

I think it's unfair when people criticize him and say the fatal flaw in his approach was trying to modernize Wisconsin's offense. I imagine the plan was we'll get our usual lineman and running backs and then modernize the passing game with better schemes and better players. A reasonable plan. There's no law against being good at running and throwing. Wisconsin had been trying to beat people 17-13 forever---that's a pretty hard thing to do in 2025. I mean, do people think he was recruiting 240 pound lineman?

You probably make a good point. You're probably right. But I don't think teams can get away with changing their personalities that easily. Barry Alvarez made Wisconsin a pound-it-down-your-throat running team. Run to set up a pass. I think if you start to abandon that style, the players who like playing in that style are going to stop committing, or transfer out. And with the transfer rules in place, they can transfer out faster than the "modern-style" players can transfer in.
Of course, this is probably all bullshit. Didn't Oklahoma - a power run team - switch to a more modern offense in the late 90s or early 2000s?

Kent State Golden Flashes (official thread)

My impression from talking to Kent State alums is that everyone goes home for the weekend. There's no there, there.

I went there in the early 90s. That was some bad football. 3 wins in my 4 years there. My Sophomore year I had a roommate from the Pittsburgh area that would go home a lot on the weekends.

Kent State football is a stepping stone program for coaches to get a better job if they have success. I blame them for not hiring Nick Saban in 1987.

Zurp said:
And I don't blame them for doing it.
What do they get for these games? $500k for each? Maybe more? Probably more?
On top of that, they can go to their recruits and try to sell them on Kent State with "Yeah, you didn't get recruited by the power schools, but if you come here, you'll still get a chance to play in their stadiums."
Kent State probably knows they'll never crawl their way out of where they are - a lower-tier G5 school. Might as well get some money to pay for the rest of their sports along the way, and who knows - they might be able to pull off an Appy State vs. the cheaters at some point.
Oh - another reason they're never going to get any better is the changing of the transfer rules. The moment a player emerges from a team in the MAC or other G5 conference, they're going to transfer to a team that can pay more for NIL and have a chance to get to and win the championship.

They got $1.5 million from Oklahoma and $1.2 million from Florida State.
