Sitting behind two 1,000-yard rushers during his first two seasons, redshirt sophomore running back Antonio Williams’ path to prominence at Ohio State has not been the one he had imagined. Currently a third-string running back for the Buckeyes, the future of Williams’ playing time and touches this season still remains…
The Ohio State offense lost a massive amount lot of leadership from last season. Guys like J.T. Barrett, Billy Price, and Jamarco Jones have moved on, and the lessons they have learned have moved on with them. Replacing Barrett at quarterback won’t just be about who throws the ball the best. Every player competing…
Ohio State has taken pride in the depth of its ‘Zone 6’ wide receiver unit and the significant number of Buckeyes that have been able to rotate there over the last few years. One player who earned surprising playing time last year was walk-on junior H-back C.J. Saunders. Saunders, who began his Ohio State career as a…
Ohio State head coach Urban Meyer and OSU athletic director Gene Smith announced an extension to Meyer’s coaching contract on Wednesday. The discussions for a contract extension began when reports of negative recruiting against the Buckeyes came out, specifically with rumors that Meyer would not be coaching…
Ohio State fans will see the names McLaurin, Dixon, and Campbell out on the field in the Scarlet and Gray once again next season. Each of the three Buckeye wideouts had to decide whether to stay in school or head to the NFL with eligibility remaining, and they all ultimately decided to come back and play one more year…
The Chris Holtmann Era is underway at Ohio State and so far the Buckeyes are surpassing initial expectations. Most recently, the Buckeyes shocked the nation with their 80-64 upset win over No. 1 Michigan State. Arguably the best player on the court that game was fourth-year junior forward Keita Bates-Diop, who recorded a…
Part of the joy of college basketball is the annual upsets. Although devastating for one team and amazing for another, upsets always shake things up a bit in the college basketball world. Wednesday night, Wofford, who was 0-23 against AP Top 25 teams, defeated No. 5 North Carolina 79-75 in Chapel Hill. The Terriers snapped the…
Since its implementation in 2014, the Buckeyes have lived on the verge of making the College Football Playoffs. Last year, Ohio State made it in without winning — or even playing for — their conference championship. This year, the Buckeyes went ahead and won the Big Ten, but fell short of making the playoffs.
Imagine this Ohio State team without wide receiver Johnnie Dixon on the roster, because it almost happened. Prior to this year, Dixon’s career has been one defined by injuries. Chronic arthritis in his knees kept him from playing a full season in any of his first three years as a Buckeye, limiting him to just 13 games total in that span.
It has been the most talked about Big Ten game of the year. Penn State vs. Ohio State is finally here. The Buckeyes have had some lopsided wins so far this season, but those are to be expected. Despite these big wins and record-setting games, however, it has appeared that no score was ever good enough (to Buckeye Nation) because it…
The story of Elijaah Goins is a special one within the Ohio State football program. The path that Goins took to the field is unlike most other Buckeyes. Goins is a senior receiver for OSU who has made a powerful impact on special teams so far this season. A kick coverage marvel, he had three tackles alone on kickoffs last week against UNLV…
