    #1 tOSU vs tCUN BMW Thread

    Just got back from Hawaii....point being, ran into a Xichigan guy in the teeshirt, and he was kinda mopey regarding their chances in The Game. Pointed out that they had more upsets when tOSU was ranked higher, but he still was hanging his head, and pointed out that they're still 6-18 for this...

    S Caleb Downs, Captain (All B1G, B1G DB of year, B1G DPOY, 2X Unanimous All American, LOTT Trophy, Thorpe Award, National Champion)

    Thought Caleb already tried that? Returned a punt or two, and then Day gave the job back to Inness. Heck, I'd put Mylan back there before I'd risk Downs getting clobbered by some guys that have worked up a full head of steam chasing downfield punt coverage (even though nine out of ten result...

    USC Trojans (official thread)

    Hello All, heard from USC alum that they don't feel like they're getting their 'Moses' worth from Riley (he'll lead them to the Promised Land). Sooo, if one is hearing that noise, then in all probability he'll jump ship to one of the big SEC jobs available. Although, I'd negotiate a severance...

    '26 FL C Maxime Meyer (Duke Verbal)

    That's OK, we'll catch him on the 'rebound' from Duke in the transfer portal.

    '25 OH SG Dorian Jones (Rutgers Verbal)

    Help me out here, but thought Rutgers was/used to be an Ivy League school. Ergo a high academic school. Sooo, if he cannot qualify for tOSU, how in the world can he qualify at Rutgers. May be in error about the Ivy league part, but always thought Rutgers was very much high on academic food...

    '26 OH PG Marcus Johnson (South Carolina Verbal)

    Wonder if Meechie will snag an assistant coach position with SC? Or grad assistant coach?

    USC Trojans (official thread)

    On another issue, read/heard that USC/Xichigan were both considering leaving the B10 due to this $2.2B equity thing. Might not be a bad thing that USC goes independent, might get their own network deal (being in the SoCal market). Don't recollect why USC asked to join B10 (UCLA is/was broke in...

    2025 Polls

    Play golf with a Domer. He said he's happy they're 12th, so will get into the playoff. Said "not so fast, my friend', just because you're #12 isn't a guarantee. There could be a #18 that wins their league, which may make them the 'highest ranking' non-bigboy league champ. Which gives them a...

    Deion Sanders (HC Colorado, Father of SubPrime)

    Cinci, betcha that UFM said what he said on Gameday (or whatever they call themselves) as they were in Indiana to cover the game. He's a talking head now, and says the 'right' things. PS, Deion sells the 'sizzle' instead of the steak, and believe his time has run out. Please recollect, Lee...

    Michigan State Spartans (official thread)

    You gotta remember, the NCAA stands for No Consistency At All. And thus it was shown. Bjork had better be getting his ass in front of this tribunal and demanding (!) that they restore the 'tatoogate' vacated wins back to the Buckeyes. PS, am still waiting for them to hammer North Carolina...

    S Caleb Downs, Captain (All B1G, B1G DB of year, B1G DPOY, 2X Unanimous All American, LOTT Trophy, Thorpe Award, National Champion)

    Am more impressed with Caleb this year than last. He's not really getting the lion's share of publicity, but on every play, his nose is in or around what's going down. Believe he's #3 in tackles this year, and ahead in solo's, as he's the roamer, and his instincts are extraordinary. I'm like...

    LB Payton Pierce (All B1G, National Champion)

    Was very much thinking along these lines. Sony is running out of eligibility, and Reese is being touted as #1 draft pick (!?), so Payton and Pettijohn (?), and/or CJ Hicks, TJ Alford are going to be LB1, 2, 3, 4 in the 2026 edition. Pettijohn and Alford are both freshmen, so any minutes they...

    OL Ian Moore (National Champion)

    Haven't kept up, so my bad. Thought Porter and Graham needed/deserved more minutes at WR. Not entirely certain why Bryson has been receiving prominent minutes over these two. What am I missing? Any of our lurkers Brian Hartline?

    DT Eddrick Houston (All B1G, National Champion)

    Don't really know what led to his 'benching' earlier this year, and at this point don't really much care. Saying that, whatever was said/done, seems to have lit a fire under Eddrick, and yeah, he's playing with much more enthusiasm than previously. Hopefully this continues, and he takes a more...

    LB Alex “Sonny” Styles, Block 'O' (All B1G, All American, National Champion)

    Avell's huuuuge growth this year has overshadowed Sony's continued improvement. IMHO. Yes, the two are the best LB tandem in college football. Both are Big Kat huge, but are more nimble sideline-to-sideline, and keeping one home to spy on the QB has paid immense dividends, which I expect them...

    UCLA at #1 tOSU BMW Thread

    Yuk! Yuk! Some good thoughts all. We'll see if the NBC announcers get confused, and start calling one or the other of the teams, Notre Dame. Routinized behavior can be a negative thing. Go Bucks, cover the spread (or the Committee will remove the Buckeyes from #1). Can the Buckeyes host...

    Game Thread UCLA at #1 tOSU, Sat. Nov. 15th, 7:30 pm ET, NBC

    All this talk of back-to-back still pisses me off about the 1968 Buckeyes. Losing to Xichigan kept the Buckeyes from #2, and then Stanford, with Jim Plunket and Randy Vataha kept them from #3. Was in the stands for all three. Dinner just didn't taste as well those two nights....

    2026 OH OL Maxwell Riley has signed!!!

    Glad to see OL guys getting some pub, rather than from missing a block or two, and getting the QB splattered on the turf.

    tOSU Recruiting Discussion

    So now guess we're going to see a HS kid driving a Ferrari to school. Only time saw that (not a Ferrari however), was the kid whose father owned a car dealership. That was a more modest Corvette....Probably more expressive than several pairs of Jordans.....

    2026 CA WR Chris Henry Jr. has signed!!!

    This young man has stayed true to his commitment, as above said, to Brian Hartline. Truly have never seen/experienced a coach putting receivers in the league AND having them so well in the NFL from the jump. Silly question, has Hartline ever won the Asst Coach of the year award? Not certain...
