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…
Thus far, our statistical projections have touched on a little over a dozen Buckeye players. We were able to pinpoint exactly who would catch the ball this season for the hometown team. To do so, a complex algorithm was created and utilized. The system is based on hundreds of factors, churns out millions of reports, and predicts stats for the entire OSU roster.
Ohio State opened fall camp one week ago today. Their first scrimmage is tomorrow. Scrimmages are where players are given an opportunity to show what they can do in a semi-realistic simulation of an actual game. Coaches learn a lot from scrimmages, which is why Ryan Day said they’d start evaluating the quarterbacks a lot more seriously after the second scrimmage.
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.
Fall camp gets underway for the Buckeyes on Friday and every single Ohio State position coach will have 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.
The No. 10 player on this list played in four games last season as a true freshman, but spent the spring running with the ones and twos, and is primed to be counted on quite a bit this season. Master Teague had been involved with Ohio State for nearly a year before he showed up at camp intent to finally earn an offer. Teague, a Tennessee native, showcased the…
Running back Master Teague played in three of the Buckeyes’ first four games last season, getting his feet wet under the NCAA’s new redshirt rule. Ohio State held him back after three games, however, in case they needed him for a game down the stretch. In those three games against Oregon State, Rutgers, and Tulane, Teague carried the ball 17…
As a true freshman last season, running back Master Teague carried the ball in three games, all of which came in the first four contests for the Buckeyes in 2018. It was a typical rookie season for an OSU rookie runner. Playing behind JK Dobbins and Mike Weber doesn’t really lend itself to many carries, after all. Prior to the Rose…
Ohio State junior running back JK Dobbins had a down year (for him) last season as a sophomore, but returns this year more determined than ever to regain his dynamic freshman form. His running mate Mike Weber is now off to the NFL, so redshirt freshman Master Teague and true freshman Marcus Crowley spent the spring trying to fill that void.
Another Ohio State spring game has come and gone, which means there are sweeping judgments to pass upon everyone and everything.This must be how mothers-in-law feel.The Gray Buckeyes put it on the Scarlet squad, running away with a 35-17 win.We saw Justin Fields and Matthew Baldwin compete on the field in front of a crowd for the first time, but they were hardly the entire story. We still learned some things about them, but we learned plenty of other things as well.
The next three weeks are very important for Ohio State redshirt freshman running back Master Teague, as he tries to earn a bigger role this fall.
