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.

Fall Camp 2019 To Do List: QB Coach Mike Yurcich
Fall camp got underway for the Buckeyes one week ago today and every single Ohio State position coach has a mental list of things that they need to get done. In fact, they may actually have a physical list as well. Speculating as to what might be on each assistant coach’s list is always a fun exercise, and there are no shortages of items that will need to be addressed.
Ranking Ohio State’s 2019 Playmakers on Offense: No. 3 — QB Justin Fields
The No. 3 player on this list played in the SEC Championship Game last season and has won the MVP at a national high school passing camp, can run a 4.4, is possibly the highest-ranked recruit in Ohio State history, and has never started a game in his college football career.

Ryan Day In No Hurry To Name Starter At Quarterback
Ryan Day still hasn’t named Justin Fields the starting quarterback for the Ohio State Buckeyes this season. You would think one day would be enough, right? The Buckeyes opened camp on Friday for their first practice of the fall, and when they did, there were three quarterbacks getting the bulk of the reps. Along with Fields, fifth-year senior Chris Chugunov and…
Hate-Colored Glasses
It’s a common theme for college football fans to be told they are seeing things through “such and such” colored glasses. Sometimes, it is fans of a team that hasn’t been relevant in over 20 years thinking they are National Title contenders. Other times, it is a fan from {insert literally any southern team here} thinking they would be the best team in any other…
Ohio State Football Notebook: ‘He takes criticism better than he used to’
Justin Fields is the highest-ranked quarterback recruit at Ohio State since Terrelle Pryor in 2008. As such, he carries with him immense expectations. To “make matters worse,” Dwayne Haskins had the greatest season for a quarterback in Ohio State history last year, which means if Fields falls short of Haskins in any area this season, there will be critics.
Justin Fields Out Front, But Must Learn From Failure
A quarterback’s need to learn through failure is one of the reasons coaches put their young quarterbacks on the field in blowouts. Their mistakes won’t lose the game, but it will allow them to grow and gain experience. Look at Dwayne Haskins in 2017. Before he entered The Game in Ann Arbor, he had a redshirt year in 2016 and had already experienced the lows…
