Northwestern has had the Big Ten West clinched for over two weeks now, which gave head coach Pat Fitzgerald a bit of freedom when it came to finishing out the regular season. Things fell perfectly just over two weeks ago in Iowa when the Wildcats came away with a 14-10 win over the Hawkeyes and both Wisconsin and…
Michigan came into Saturday’s game against Ohio State with one of the nation’s top defenses, holding opponents to just 13.5 points per game. The Buckeye offense, undeterred, went ahead and scored four times that amount against the Wolverines. Quarterback Dwayne Haskins threw for 396 yards and six touchdowns, and…
We love our autumn traditions on the Silver Bullets Podcast: apple cider, pumpkin pie, Thanksgiving dinner with the family, and a big Ohio State win over that team up north. Both Chip Minnich and I predicted an Ohio State victory but neither of us expected it to be quite so comprehensive. We break down the OSU victory…
COLUMBUS — Ohio State head coach Urban Meyer spoke with reporters Monday to preview Saturday night’s upcoming Big Ten Championship Game against the Northwestern Wildcats. Meyer provided updates on his football team and answered questions about the Buckeyes and their preparation for the game ahead.
Ohio State head coach Urban Meyer held his traditional Monday press conference to look back at the win over Michigan and look ahead at this weekend’s Big Ten title game. First, he shared some observations on the 62-39 demolition of the Wolverines. But the Buckeyes are already looking forward to their next challenge. The stakes are high for the Big Ten Championship Game. A win over the Wildcats would guarantee the Buckeyes at least a berth in the Rose Bowl…
Ohio State head coach Urban Meyer took part in Sunday’s Big Ten Championship Game coaches teleconference to preview next Saturday’s matchup with Northwestern. He provided updates on his team and the health of some players, talked a bit about the challenge ahead of this team, and also answered some questions about…
It’s the regular season finale of the Grumpy Old Buckeye, the column that aims to be the voice of negativity, even when things are going great (and let’s face it, most everything was pretty great yesterday). It’s where I point out the things from each game that make me want to walk out onto my lawn in my bathrobe and yell at people about it.
Saturday afternoon in Ohio Stadium with the division and — more importantly — bragging rights on the line, a big-time player stepped up in a big-time game. But this was unlike any other performance he has had this season. In a game where Ohio State was saying goodbye to three senior captain receivers, it was true freshman…
For the first time in school history, Ohio State has three receivers on the same team who have accounted for 1,000 yards receiving in their respective careers. Fourth-year junior K.J. Hill (1,583 yards), senior Parris Campbell (1,416 yards), and senior Terry McLaurin (1,129 yards) each have topped 1,000 career receiving yards.
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…
In this episode of the Buckeye Weekly Podcast, Tony Gerdeman and Tom Orr recap what Urban Meyer had to say on Monday about Saturday’s matchup against the favored Michigan Wolverines. Topics include Dwayne Haskins showing a necessary toughness, conversations with Meyer’s defensive staff, whether the OSU…
