The statistical projections are back, and there’s nothing worse than trying to pin down the first game numbers. The team is new. The QB is a transfer. The opponent is relatively unknown (read: not in the Big Ten). Their coach is equal parts hilarious and certifiable, so I have no idea if he’s about to roll out a competitive, innovative game plan that…
C’mon, people. You didn’t think I’d just stop after the QBs and forget all about the most important players on the field, did you? Kickers and punters are people too. Let’s show them some respect. Also, little known facts… sometimes stretching is difficult and water is essential to life. *Fast-forward to the 0:41 mark of the video, if you’re impatient*…
Ohio State’s specialists have turned simple items and a little bit of creativity into social media gold. But there’s actually a point to their shenanigans.
Everybody loves college football. If somebody tells you they don’t love it, they’re wrong. We look forward to particular games and watching certain players. Each week we get to see something new. That is especially true if you think about the sheer number of individual matchups there are to watch this season. And that’s just the Ohio State games.
Drue Chrisman has combined his two greatest skills into a Voltron of Excellent Offseason Content. Behold, Drue Chrisman: Bottle Punter Extraordinaire.
I know, I know. It’s a travesty and you’re as fired up as I am about it!! I’m referring, of course, to the Big Ten’s (coaches and media) decision to award the conference’s Punter of the Year Award to Michigan’s Will Hart and not Ohio State’s Drue Chrisman. It may not be a scandal or anything national newsworthy, but…
Just like I had said in last week’s statistical projections… 52-51, OSU wins an overtime thriller! Alright, so that’s obviously a lie. I thought that OSU would come out and dominate Maryland from start to finish. As you saw, they did not do that. In fact, I found myself, several times, looking at the score and thinking, “Oh, wow, Maryland’s…
Before I get into the recap and statistical projections, go ahead and allow yourself a nice, calm exhale. Ohio State did what we’ve been waiting on them to do for several weeks. They played, perhaps, their most complete game of the season and beat a ranked opponent on the road. Sure, they toppled Penn State, in…
The season continues to fly by at supersonic speeds, even if certain games plod by like the mascot of Ohio State’s next opponent. Ohio State’s 26-6 win at Michigan State wasn’t a beauty contest but I think it’s gorgeous to get a 100-yard rusher against the country’s top run defense and regardless of how inept the Spartans…
In this episode of The Buckeye SloopCast, Jared and Kyle pay homage to Ohio State’s best defensive player since Antoine Winfield, as punter Drue Chrisman had a whale of a game against Michigan State. They also look back at the rest of the game and talk about what went right and what went wrong, and what it means moving…
