2019 Ohio State Buckeyes Football: It’s a New Day

[WVRed]

No way. Who are they going to get that’s better? Plus they owe him a ton of money.

I’m sure Ohio State asked that when they fired John Cooper. That worked out pretty well for them.

Brady Hoke is the only coach from TTUN to beat the Buckeyes in the last 16 contests. They need to stop and let that sink in.

Harbaugh is simply no match for the Buckeyes, whether Urban is coaching or Day is.

Are the Buckeyes playoff bound win or lose next week?

That was when Fickell was the interim then I believe.

Win, easily the one seed.

Lose, should be number 4. Depends on what happens with how the SEC unfolds but they should be higher than the other one loss teams.

I want to see Minnesota take on the Buckeyes but I don’t think it matters either way.

You are correct.

Latest on the Pryor stabbing...domestic.


"In a news release announcing the charges, police described Briston and Pryor as "mutual combatants in this incident."

When Michigan responded with a TD, making it 14-13, I was starting to say "Hmmm". In the first half, while their run D was there, Patterson was tearing OSU's secondary up. Huge holes. 250 passing yards in the first half. But adjustments were made at halftime, because he only threw for 55 yards in the second half. Our defense started exerting more pressure on Shea in the second half, created turnovers, made key 4th down stops, and Shea (IMO) played rattled, out of sync, the majority of the second half.

So my hat is off to OSU's defensive coordinator for making those adjustments successfully.

Can't say enough about Dobbins. Yeah, IMO, he should be in that Heisman discussion - 31 carries for 211 yards, 4 TDs. And that last one, where he went in the air and took out #14(?) was a thing of beauty! LOL

Ohio State simply wore the Wolverines out in the second half. They couldn't run with them.

Not taking anything away from them but tOSU is very fortunate that all their tough games are at home this season.

This team has successfully made adjustments all season, so I wasn’t worried there. I was a bit concerned that Wade being out wasn’t something they were going to be able to fix around. The younger guys stepped up though and they started using different looks to get pressure up front.

Also happy that Dobbins got a big moment on a national stage. I think people know his name, but he’s been over shadowed by others the last free seasons until now.

Ohio State landed/will land the Gatorade Player of the Year in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Texas. All three of Martinez, Fleming and Smith-Njigba were heavily recruited.

Oddly, the Ohio Gatorade POY (Ethan Wright) is committed to Cincinnati. Wright's a Division V kid from the Akron area.

I think the concerns about Day's ability to recruit are overblown.

The receivers next year could be the best in school history if a couple of those freshman live up to the hype.

Sounds like Fleming, the Pennsylvania POY, is every bit of Garrett Wilson, and then some.

The perplexing part of this recruiting class is the lack of a standout RB. You'd think the recent run of ultra-productive backs and Dobbins' departure would net a big name. Yet, they just pilfered a back from Iowa State, of all places.

Yeah they thought they had Robinson and it didn’t work out and their backup plan took the bag man cash from Florida State so they backed off. Teague will be fine next year and they will get a 2020 back I’m sure.
