Ohio State vs. #12 North Carolina (in Atlanta), Saturday Dec. 20, 3pm EST, CBS

This was probably the best we've looked all season and really thought we were going to pull out the W. UNC looked pretty good but I think we're still figuring out our identity and the right guys to get the minutes they should be getting. This would have been really good for the tourney resume, but the real work is still going to be in B1G play and not losing games we shouldn't lose/pulling off a few wins where we're not favored. I have way more optimism about that happening than the past few years or so.

RB Lamar "Bo" Jackson (All B1G)

It's funny how crazy football stats are now. People, myself included, complain about the running game. Oh, so what were the running back's stats? Like 500 yards on 3.5 yards a carry?

Oh, no, he got 1000 yards on 6 yards a carry
Rewatching The Game, I think he's primed for some big plays. We're sure as hell going to need to run the ball against them even though their defensive strength is up front. Then again, they're probably about the same as ttun's front 7 and we took care of them for the most part.

GO BUCKS!!!
Great write up. Only differences I would have is a narrow pure decision for Davino, same for Mendez over Echemendia, Elam only gets a major decision at 197, and Paddy loses at 165 by decision (that one is a pure toss up to me, but he could be riding momentum from the earlier matches if we start hot). So I would have team score at OSU 23 - ISU 13 (check my math on the score).

There are some definite toss ups and it's a great match on paper, hopefully we get on the momentum train like the Iowa dual and don't look back. Looking forward to tomorrow!

2025-2026 College Basketball General Discussion

The CBS Sports Classic, which historically has featured OSU, UNC, UK and UCLA, had a change as St John's was swapped in this year & next (at least) for UCLA. Bruins coach Mick Cronin was irritated about his team traveling to the East Coast twice within a span of weeks last season, with the CBS Sports Classic game at MSG being the cause of one of the trips. UCLA may not be in the event in the future because Cronin dislikes the extra travel, especially now with the B1G requiring a handful of long trips every year. Other than two years in Vegas, the event, which started in 2014, has been hosted only as far west as Chicago and New Orleans.

Miami (FL) Hurricanes (1926-2003)

Post that on repeat in the WHAC. They are so easy to hate.
The aTm OL started it by talking about him in an interview. Bain finished the conversation. I have no problem with it, he and several other aTm players ran their mouths and couldn’t back it up.
I hate them for thinking that theyre in anyway in the same sentence of the great Miami teams. The only similarities are the colors. The last time Miami beat OSU it took OSU being down their starting QB, RB, WR and DE. Miami ain’t Indiana, closer to Illinois, they are in for quite beating

Coaching changes: coaches hired and fired, comings and goings

Dilling’s staying - for now. Boosters better be ready to get this program elevated immediately if they want him more than another year.

PS, he could have gotten it stroked for less up north 8D

I find the comment funny when he literally just agreed to an extension worth about double what he’s asking someone else to donate to their NIL.
