There are fewer things I love in life more than making predictions and seeing them be completely wrong on a very public stage, in writing. I mean, I’m the idiot who predicted a certain true freshman running back would only receive 7 carries last year. With publically failing so high on my To-Do list and everyone…
Every year there is one. One game on the schedule where everything points to where Ohio State will struggle. I’m not talking about the Oklahomas of the world. Those games are too easy to point out. I’m talking about those games that shock everyone outside of Buckeye Nation. They don’t always lose this game and…
As an Ohio State fan, the 2017 season was rough. The quarterback position was a constantly-negative situation where one side felt very strong about J.T. Barrett’s abilities as a leader and the other side felt very strongly about his lack of abilities throwing the ball. It was a constant debate where neither side was going to be dissuaded…
After some time away thanks to work travel interrupting the ability to record, The Sons of Schmidt return to your earhole to discuss the beatdown Ohio State put on Michigan State this past weekend. They also look ahead to Illinois and the Battle for the Illibuck. Then the guys take a look at some of the scenarios that can play…
Penn State…the one game on the Big Ten schedule that every Buckeye fan has been looking forward to since last year’s team managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Brandon has already posted a great piece this week about his hatred for all thing Nittany Lion, and you can hear more from him on this week’s broadcast.
Let’s just go ahead and put something out there. I despise Penn State, I hate everything about them. I hate the way they idolize Joe Paterno, I hate the way they complain constantly about how the conference is against them, and most of all I hate how relevant they think they are. It might even be safe to say that I hate Penn State more than Michigan…
This past weekend was pretty crazy around college football but it didn’t seem to affect the Big Ten pecking order too much. There were a few close calls with Michigan and their big brother Michigan State, but that is about it. Really, outside of Rutgers getting a win there wasn’t too much shock value in the Midwest. With everyone at or around…
Well folks, this weekend was a success in more ways that one. I had made a promise on The Sons of Schmidt that if Ohio State lost to Maryland…I would personally ban myself from Ohio Stadium. Thank the good lord that I don’t have to break that promise because SPOILER ALERT…I totally would have. Another weekend passed by…
I’ve come to realize a few things over the first five weeks of the season. First, outside the top four teams (OSU, PSU, Wisky, and UM) and the bottom two teams (Illinois and Rutgers), it is almost impossible to judge who is actually good or not. Secondly, much like Tony has no idea when I’m turning this piece in every week…none of us…
We are at that point of the year where any SEC team with a pulse gets shuffled around the meaningless AP and Coaches poll to prove dominance. This week we had the privilege of watching Georgia jump up into the Top-10 because of their huge win over Mississippi State…who for some reason jumped up into the Top-20 last week…
As I sat there on Saturday in my mom’s basement as the best blogger/writer this side of the Sons of Schmidt, it really was difficult to figure out if the Big Ten conference is any good. Sure, there are four teams in the Top 10, but there is like 60% of the Top-10 filled by NON-B1G teams! That certainly can’t be any good.
