I was going to abstain from posting my feelings on this game in order to not jinx it but I'm doing it anyway.

With all the superstars on this field tomorrow the most important player is going to be a rising star but not yet household name: Denzel Burke. The player who could make the most trouble for the Buckeyes is not Thorne and its not Walker. It's Jayden Reed. The front 7 will do their jobs tomorrow and contain Walker. He may get a TD or even 2 because he'll be playing the entire game, but it is Reed who could keep the Spartans in the game. He not only is the most polished WR with deep speed and great hands, but he's a potential problem on special teams too. Take a look at the Nebraska game for Sparty. They went to OT and Nebraska should have won the game but, you know, Corn. They held Walker to 61 yards on 19 carries. He's going to likely get twice that many carries with similar results this week because they'll be playing from behind the whole game. But, with 3:47 left in that game and Sparty trailing, it was Reed who scored on a punt return to get to OT. He also had a score to get things going for Sparty.

So, the most important player will be Burke limiting the touches for Reed. If they are smart they'll move Reed around like Purdue did with Bell but Burke was up to the task. If he's up to the task tomorrow, the Buckeyes will smash Sparty on Senior Day. He hasn't let me down yet this year so I'm betting on Burke and betting on the Buckeyes to get it done with style, 52-20. Keep the train rolling towards the promise land.

Do we know if Nailor’s back? I can’t find anything confirming either way. He’s almost as good as Reed.

Lately I’ve been just throwing in air pods and listening on YouTube. Just sucks I want to sit in my living room, drink 5 beers before 11a arrives, and yell like a fucking lunatic.

On a plus note, my former manager whom was promoted to the regional level recently, just reached out to me about joining her division in a salaried virtual role. Things might be looking up.

Or just retire. I highly recommend retirement. Wish I had done it sooner.

Getting a little nervous. Prediction:
In the first half, buckeyes have 2 tds 3 fgs, sparty gets 2 tds 1 fg.
Our defense plays better when on their side of the 50. They play loose and have fun. Every first down they get, our defense seems to get more nervous and make more mistakes. So I think we force 2 punts before they cross the 50.
I think our offense easy gets inside the 30 and then starts to pucker. That's where the sparty D tightens down. What happens in those 30 yards is going to decide the game, because Sparty will drive the field and end up with TDs more often than not. They'll end up scoring in the 30s.
