Grading Ohio State's 2025 Defense Position-By-Position​

161396_h.jpg


The Matt Patricia experiment proved to be a smashing success for Ohio State in 2025. However, as important as schematics are, the most important element to high-quality football is high-quality players. The Buckeyes had high-quality players on their 2025 defense.

Kayden McDonald, Arvell Reese, Sonny Styles and Caleb Downs have a great chance to give the Silver Bullets a first-round 2026 NFL draft pick at every level of the defense. More All-Big Ten performers like Caden Curry and Davison Igbinosun supported them.

Ohio State finished the season with the No. 1 scoring and total defense in college football. The Buckeyes’ defense fueled a key victory over Texas to open the season and stifled almost every attack Michigan offered in The Game. Even as the offense sputtered in the Big Ten Championship Game against Indiana, the Silver Bullets battled time and again to keep a win within sight.

Miami wore down Ohio State’s front in the College Football Playoff quarterfinals and salted away a win with its running game, but that’s one of the very few blemishes on the résumé of an elite 2025 Buckeye defense. Spoiler: There are lots of As on this report card.

Defensive Line - Grade: A-

Linebackers - Grade: A​

Safeties - Grade: A+​

Cornerbacks - Grade: B+​

And since I made that post, John Gibson has rounded into something like his old form.

Wouldn't shock me if they added a Dman at the deadline but the Yzerplan is coming due finally.

Ohio State basketball team has a new opponent in CBS Sports Classic​

The Ohio State basketball team will face a new opponent in a key non-conference clash that they have every year.

The Ohio State basketball program has been taking part in one of the best in-season matchups for over a decade. The CBS Sports Classic started back in 2014, and the Buckeyes have played in that event every year. It's a tournament that showcases four of the best programs in the country.

From the start, the Classic involved the Ohio State Buckeyes, UCLA, Kentucky, and North Carolina. Then, UCLA joined the Big Ten, making the potential rotation with the Buckeyes and the Bruins a conference matchup. That's something that they wanted to avoid.

Now, the CBS Sports Classic will no longer feature the Bruins. Surprisingly, they have left instead of Ohio State. There is now a Big 12 team included in the CBS Sports Classic, as Kansas will now join the rotation. That means every P4 conference is represented now.

The Ohio State basketball team will face Kansas in CBS Sports Classic​

The Jayhawks will take on the Buckeyes in next year's version of the CBS Sports Classic. Ohio State will then take on Kentucky in 2027 and UCLA in 2028. Kansas will face the Buckeyes again in 2029. Next year's version of the Classic will take place in Madison Square Garden in New York.

2026 BRPT Class Review

calibuck
Always kinda wonder how coaches utilize the 'dropping' of player rankings to motivate said players? Is it a singling out, position room generalization, or a take aside type of thing? And conversely, using a player upgrade 4* => 5*, to push/maintain the player's enthusiasm toward hard work. Certainly the coaches use comparisons "you have the same qualities as Caleb, so use them" type of pitch. The above post put these questions in my wandering mind on this Wednesday morning. Methinks that is why/how these coaches are paid seven figures to ply their trades....and yeah, I get that every kid is different, some require praise, some require kicking in the butt, etc.
