The Miami RedHawks have a tradition of occasionally pulling off upsets against superior opponents. 1986, the then-Miami Redskins upset eighth-ranked LSU in Baton Rouge, 21-12, en route to an eventual MAC Championship. 1995, Miami traveled to Evanston, Illinois, and upset eventual Big Ten champion Northwestern in week two, 30-28.
Speaking about Ohio State, Indiana head coach Tom Allen is relishing the opportunity to welcome the Buckeyes into Memorial Stadium, in Bloomington, Indiana. If Indiana were to upset Ohio State (GASP! Darkest Day III!?!), it would be the first time since October 8, 1988. That was back when some young whippersnapper named Ronald Reagan…
This Saturday afternoon, Luke Fickell is planning on making his homecoming to Ohio State memorable. Coming off a dominant 24-14 home win over UCLA in the season opener, Cincinnati is primed to claim their first-ever win against the Buckeyes in Ohio Stadium, and the first victory over Ohio State since 1897, a 24-0 shutout.
Truth be told, Florida Atlantic has not provided much information either, as no starting quarterback has been announced, with speculation that Chris Robison will get the nod. Florida Atlantic head coach Lane Kiffin is not thrilled with opening up on the road against the Buckeyes, stating, “There’s a lot of different ways to go about these things.”
With news coming so fast and furiously out of Columbus about the new coaching staff, I wanted to let the dust settle a little bit before offering up any commentary about the players who have decided to declare for the 2019 NFL Draft. Before I say anything further, I want to express my sincere best wishes to each of these…
Congratulations to Urban Meyer as he readies to leave the sidelines as Ohio State’s head coach following the 2019 Rose Bowl game versus Washington. If someone had told me back on November 28, 2011, that I would have Urban Meyer for only seven years, but I would get one national championship, plus seven straight wins…
The 8-4 Northwestern Wildcats are The B1G’s West Division champion, just as everyone anticipated back in the summer. Now that the snickering has subsided, a closer look reveals a team that lacks a great deal of sizzle, but compensates for their lack of flash by playing fundamentally strong defense that limits big plays down the field.
Here we are. THE GAME. Everything has been leading up to this moment, and now Ohio State will face “That Team Up North” — the Michigan Wolverines, to determine the 2018 winner of the Big Ten’s East Division. Just as it should be. As someone who can still vividly recall watching Tim Spencer run the ball for Ohio State…
Maryland is sitting on the precipice (5-5) of being bowl-eligible, with only this home game against Ohio State and a road trip to Penn State next week to allow the Terrapins to get to the coveted six-win mark. While Maryland has tried to navigate the never-ending currents of negative attention that has covered…
