2025 Grambling at Ohio State BMW Thread

This is the BMW thread. Land of the free, home of the brave where negativity is the rule and The Lunatics rage.

This thread is for those that want to Bitch/Moan/Whine (BMW) for the upcoming game between Grambling and tOSU Buckeyes.
@AuTX Buckeye, @Bestbuck36, and @Captain Buckeye ARE thread monitors.
@Honor&Glory gets a nod as he definitely exhibits the (needy) B in BMW.
Tagging @BB73 @LordJeffBuck if they feel this is worthy of a pinned thread.

3 Predictions for the Season

They may or may not be wild-ass crazy stuff.

1. Texas doesn’t make the SEC CCG, but does make the playoffs.

2. Julian Sayin wins the Heisman Trophy.

3. Caleb Downs becomes the Buckeyes 6th player to be named a Unanimous All-American TWICE.

That club, which currently has less members than tOSU’s Heisman winners, is currently as follows:

Twice named Unanimous All-American:
Hopalong Cassady
Bob Ferguson
Archie Griffin
Orlando Pace
Marvin Harrison, Jr.

Former Ohio State Basketball Player Allan Hornyak Dies At Age 74​

Allan-Hornyak.jpg

Former Ohio State basketball player Allan Hornyak died on Monday at the age of 74. His cause of death has not yet been revealed.
Hornyak, nicknamed the “Bellaire Bomber,” scored 1,572 points as a Buckeye over 69 career games to average 22.8 points per game.

The 6-1 guard had a prolific high school career at St. John Central, and notably scored 86 points in a single game as a senior. He led the nation in scoring as a junior and a senior in high school, averaging over 40 points in each of those seasons.
In 1971, Hornyak helped lead the Buckeyes to the Big Ten championship. In the Buckeyes’ win over Big Ten runners-up Michigan, Hornyak scored 37 points.
Hornyak, a second-team All-American in 1972 and a third-team All-American in 1973, was inducted into Ohio State’s Hall Of Fame in 1992.
After his Ohio State career, Hornyak was drafted by the Cleveland Cavaliers in the second round of the 1973 NBA Draft, but he never played professional basketball.

Kema joins his, and Oklahoma State’s, former offensive line coach, Charlie Dickey, who’s an offensive line analyst for the Buckeyes. Probably a pretty safe bet to say that’s why Kema wound up in Columbus.

Seems like this is either a late transfer since Kema just returned from his Mormon mission. 20yo, with 5yrs of eligibilty left. Oh, and he's a former HS Army All American

Play Game Weekly Upset Contest for 2025

THE BEST CONTEST ON THE INTERNET IS BACK!!!!!

Once again, this will be a simple contest to participate in. Each week I will list all of the underdogs in the Div 1-A games that I see a point-spread for at the beginning of the week. Each person may pick 1 and only 1 team each week; just post your pick in this thread.

You must pick your team before the kickoff of your game. It isn't mandatory to make a pick every week, but if you don't, you obviously can't earn any points that week.

If your team wins, you are awarded the amount of points that they were assigned in the spread; if they lose you get 0 points. So it's riskier to pick Little-Sisters-of-the-Poor +47 when they play Texas Tech, but you get a ton of points if they win, as opposed to getting only a couple of points when you pick a close game.

Once I post the point spreads inside this thread, they are locked for purposes of this contest. Only the spreads listed in this thread will be used to award points.

The entire season-long contest will exist in this one thread. Each week I will post the points for that week and the season-to-date totals. Whoever has the most points after the Conference Championship Games in December will be declared the winner, and will receive ¤25,000 Sportsbook "cash".

There will be a separate contest in December for Bowl game upsets.

2022 winner: @Honor&Glory (91.5 points)
2023 winner @CMic (60 points)

This post will get the new picks and current standings updated each week. There will also be a post with that info near the end of the thread.
