  • Since some of the players that will play that historic game will be entering the third grade this fall, should we be extending offers to the best of the second grade right now?

    Wonder if Nightmare (NightmaresDad) has committed yet.. we could lock up both of LoKy's boys as linemen.. BuckBackHome has a couple DBs if they don't kill each other first...

    OSU vs. Tennessee: It's risky scheduling a decade in advance

    By Kyle Nagel

    The first thing I tried to look up was a list of Saturday dates in 2018. That must have been one of the bigger obstacles for Ohio State and Tennessee.
    The two schools last week announced they have scheduled a home-and-home football series in 2018 and 2019. Granted, that seems far away, but imagine if Ohio State and USC had scheduled their upcoming games in 1999. That doesn't seem that long ago, does it?


    Except it wouldn't have seemed so sexy back then. USC had just finished a 6-6 season, and the Trojans had to win their final three games to get there. Pete Carroll wasn't yet on campus, and USC was an impressive name school with a 26-22 record in the previous four seasons.
    This is the danger with scheduling so far in advance. It has to be done, of course, if you want to get a USC or Tennessee or LSU or Ohio State on your nonconference schedule. But who says Tennessee or Ohio State is going to be great in 10 years, or other under-performing powers won't reemerge?

    I can't wait for this series of games.....Since we lost to Peyton and the boys there has been a bitter taste in this Buckeye's mouth.

    I know I have a home and home with a UT buddy of mine for this one.....counting down 10 years.....
