2026 tOSU Offense Discussion

[gmen6981]

Let's remember that this is the third OC that we have had in the past 3 years. A little patience would be nice.

You see, here's your problem. That is a very rational statement that is most likely true.
The Lunatic Fringe however doesn't deal in "rational".

OL did really well against Illinois both running and passing. No sacks.
The Jackson's combined for 125 yds at 5.2 ypc
Is Julian and Jeremiah the best pitcher / catcher combo we have seen at THEE?

 

[scarletngray]

Also, kudos to Nate Roberts who continues to developed into a nice TE. Yesterday he had four receptions. For the year he has 8 receptions and 1TD, averaging 10.4 ypr.

Illinois firing their DC for not doubling Jeremiah is hilarious

Nope… still Day’s offensive scheme/structure …. same ole OL blocking issues, TE blocking … at some point we are who we are ….

summary please

summary please

Said he's not that good and that Jakobi Jackson should be starting

Said he's not that good and that Jakobi Jackson should be starting

I'm not sure about that but Jakobi definately should be the short yardage back. And Bey when healthy should get some reps.

Here's a little more in thorough of an explanation of what Zach Boren said ("Said if Bo isn’t going to make people miss, go with Jakobi bc he’s bringing the power on his runs."):

 

[RugbyBuck]

I'm inclined to think that Bo Jackson last year was more about the backs who started the year in front of him than about him. We didn't and don't have an RB1 at the level we should. That's both a recruiting and development issue. Have to at least consider whether Locklyn is all bluster at this point.

tOSU missed by not going after Cam Edwards in the portal and I mentioned at the time I didn't see an elite RB on this roster.

I will say, Bo is about as talented as they come in terms of catching the ball out of the backfield. Even prior to his one-handed catch against Illinois, he's proven extremely reliable when it comes to making catches on swing passes, screens, etc. So props on that.....and 1 reason it makes sense to play him over Jakobi.....it doesn't tip off run or pass.
