There have been plenty of squads I've been worried about in big road games. This one isn't one of them. I love the vibe with these guys. There relatively young, at least in terms of starter minutes for a lot of them, and they don't seem complacent because of the '24 NC. I see them embracing...

Hahaha, thanks to BB73 I have the receipts.

Also, and I want to emphasize that I'm in no way negative about Bo, the freshman wall is real more often than not. It's not unusual to see guys start the year fast and then fall off as conference games stack. All the more reason to continue to rotate. I don't think we need an RB1 getting 25...

My post wasn't specifically directed toward or in response to yours and yours was admittedly tempered relative to others' MoC comparisons I've seen since last weekend. However, in reply I don't think we can extrapolate MoC yardage and TD numbers just by adding carries against a better level of...

Thanks, BB.

I may have to search the BP archives, but I remember cracking myself up writing about Lydell trying to rush in to put out a fire, running into the door frame, knocking himself out and the building burning down.

There's some recency bias at play with MoC comparisons. If he'd played three seasons, he'd be our #2 behind Archie. BJ2 notched 108 and 109 in consecutive games as a freshman against Grambling and OU. That's fantastic and we definitely need it, but he's not anywhere near MoC: 175 yds and 3...

Agree entirely. Similar to my point in the Arvell thread about the tackling angle he chose to take, the really good ones learn what they can do and what they can do in different circumstances.

And he took a decent angle. It was still a little too inside for me, but he knows his speed and I'm thinking that he could chase Navarro down outside, but didn't want to give up the cut-back. Brah is a player. Period. Parenthetically, why did no one mention Navarro kicking at McDonald like a...

Kid is a baller, no doubt. Acceleration and footwork are great and he seems to have some vision, too. I can't yet get with you on the MoC comparison, but I'm not disagreeing with Peoples=Lydell. CJD showed me who he is more than any other play on the reception and bullrush for the TD that was...

I don't see anything that makes me worry. He has missed a few reads, but not lost composure. That's ridiculous for a kid this young. Buying time and throwing that off-platform TD pass to Klare accurately was a thing of beauty. A lot of guys sail that ball under those circumstances...

Unfortunately, Johnson can't recruit or develop, so...

The adage is that stars can't coach and there's more than a lot of truth to that. The best coaches are usually backup or (See Day, Ryan) small school QBs, not QB1s. Stars who can coach are outliers and it's statistically absurd that we have three who were Buckeye star players who are now...

I've made this plea every year at least since Cooper. Rotation, rotation, rotation. Assuming that they earn it in practice, it seems to me like we have four of them same RB, with CJD bringing more size. No reason not to play them all early and keep rotating during the season and wearing down...

Ordered Peacock for $10.99. That's a $150 savings from what we would've spent watching at the neighborhood pub.

Of course he "didn't repeat the mistake." That was his last ball, lab partner. For fuck's sake, that's why he was 18 of 19, duh.

I think it's too early to tell. We're two games into the season with BI as a starter and the first was a limited game plan against the then #1 team and the second was a rout with the starters only playing a half. We got years of Fleming doing nothing.

That stat line is absurd against anyone. You shouldn’t be able to go 18 of 19 against air.

Baller.

What the actual fuck? Even against Grambling, Brah just doesn’t get rattled. Loving the California vibe.
