There us no way you can double team Hank and Simon...this defense will be as dangerous as the 85 Bears.

I'm as excited as the next person about the season, but let's pump the breaks a little bit on that one.

I love the 85 Bears ..I like what Coach has been saying about our corners..if we can cover a little the QB will be under pressure. What would be wrong with a one loss season..

My point was this: it would probably be best to wait a few games, perhaps more considering the level of competition, before comparing the 2012 Ohio State defense to one of the most highly regarded squads in the history of the sport.

After the Super Bowl Shuffle, no one really holds them to high regards :p

Fine. They'll only be as good as the 2000 Ravens or 1976 Steelers. Better?

I was thinking '73 Buckeyes myself, but I was going to wait until after the first quarter on Saturday.

I prefer the '72 Dolphins myself

If the DL can be close to the DL of 10 years ago I would be ecstatic.

No matter who you compare this Buckeyes defense to, none of them will ever stack up against Bama's 2011 defense. ESPN told me so.

Read that Miami will be starting a freshman at guard.. I would expect Hank to be in their backfield more often than their QB

Too big of a guy to have little numerals on his shoulders.

Absolutely agree. He needs to be rockin some Andy Katzenmoyer style digits on those big shoulders.
