It's been a year since this post and it deserves an update. Since the one-point loss at Oregon on October 12th, Day's résumé against top-5 teams looks like this: 2024: #4 Ohio State beats #3 Penn State 2024: #2 Ohio State beats #5 Indiana 2024: #6 Ohio State beats #1 Oregon 2024: #6 Ohio State...

Winning the game on January 19, 2026 means something. Rankings in mid-October mean nothing .. except for the clickbait merchants who thrive on outrage and controversy. Do yourselves a favor – ignore them, even the ones who are "pro" Buckeye (spoiler: they're not pro Buckeye, they're pro click).

I like that - Julian's not just Sayin, he's also Doin....

Syracuse won a unanimous national championship in 1959, and they've had a few top-10 teams since then. Syracuse isn't a powerhouse program, but this certainly wasn't their best win ever and probably not even top-5.

I was listening to their broadcast and heard that. Novelty isn't really a place - it is the name of a post office in Russell Township, Geauga County, which is about 20 miles east of Cleveland. Novelty often appears on maps but it's about as real as Quahog, RI.

Although he had a court executioner, Henry VIII actually did hire an expert swordsman from St. Omer, France, to behead his second wife, Anne Boleyn. Queen Anne had been convicted of treason, the punishment for which was hanging, drawing, and quartering, but Henry commuted the sentence to...

I haven't done a complete update of this post in almost three years and a lot has happened since then. Here are some interesting facts and trivia concerning Ohio State scoring records, mostly dealing with very long (and very short) touchdowns. Note: The Ohio State official record books are...
