I love Tresselball
We got six weeks off now before the Rose Bowl, I thought this could be an interesting discussion..
In your opinion, are the Buckeyes more likely to be National Championship bound in 2010 or 2011??
I told my friends early on this season that I was willing to bet that this team would be going to the 'Ship next season. Losing one offensive starter in Cordle and two defensive starters (Coleman and Russell) I think easily makes them a early favorite when Herby ranks his top 5 teams after the 'Ship this year.
Only concern is with either Gibson or Heyward leaving, both are absolute monsters and will be playing on Sundays for a long time, but Todd McShay didn't have either in his top 5 DLine rankings when I saw last? I don't know if he just ranked seniors but I know neither of them were there. I really hope both return to a defense that I wouldn't trade for anyones. The only question is who will be starting Safeties.
The only real debate I had when deciding which year was more likely to see the Ntl. Championship was whether (most of) their junior years would get them all ready as seniors to reach their complete peaks and have the best possible (mostly referring to the offensive guys, Pryor, all RBs and WRs) but I think with the defense for next year that gives them their best chance, not really having an idea of what the defense would be for 2011.
Thoughts? Opinions?
