Random Thoughts Week 10: SEC Drama Rules a “Slow” Weekend

With some of the top teams off (Alabama, Texas A&M, Oregon) and others playing conference doormats (Penn State-Ohio State, Indiana-Maryland) as per usual, the SEC took center stage. It was much better entertainment than watching the Dodgers’ “bought” World Series win. One shlock-fest in particular caught some eyes for the car crash that it was: […]

Under construction: Ohio State wins opener, struggles defensively

New court laid out, new lights in the rafters, new German-born big man patrolling the paint. There was plenty of flash and fanfare on Monday night as Ohio State began its quest to win the second national championship in program history, but once the ball went up at 6:30, the Buckeyes were all business. Facing […]

Around the Big Ten: Week 10

Despite six top-25 teams falling in Week 10, not much craziness happened in the Big Ten. In the Week 11 AP Poll, the Big Ten has six teams ranked in the top-25 with three of them being in the top-10 (No. 1 Ohio State, No. 2 Indiana, No. 6 Oregon). Not to mention, two other […]

MMQB – 368 & 5

I wrote a couple weeks ago about the countdown to Kaytron Allen trying to become the Penn State career rushing leader, and given the relative meh-ness of this season, I think I’m going to keep tabs on it on a weekly basis, or at least until something more fun happens. Against Ohio State, Kaytron had […]

Texas A&M remains at 3 after idle week

While there were some shakeups during week ten, Texas A&M remained in place at #3 in both the AP Top 25 and the Coaches Poll after being idle. Ohio State and Indiana remained in the 1 and 2 spots, respectively. Ohio State dominated Penn State on Saturday, while the Hoosiers continued their string of victories […]

Position Grades: Ohio State

Well, at least that first half was kinda fun, no? Time to rip off the band-aid, once again… Quarterback: C Considering this was his second career start against yet another ferocious defense, Ethan Grunkemeyer did not allow himself to get rattled and even made some nice throws when he had time in the pocket. Unfortunately, […]

Social Media Reactions to Penn State vs. Ohio State

While fan expectations were not high for Penn State’s once-marquee matchup with Ohio State, the Nittany Lions still got their money’s worth in the first half. Nicholas Singleton rounded into form, and Ethan Grunkemeyer helped orchestrate one of the team’s best drives of the season. Suddenly, Penn State was within one score. Still, plenty of […]

Three Takeaways From Penn State’s 38-14 Loss To Ohio State

1) Good first half Penn State didn’t roll over, staying with the Buckeyes blow for blow. It looked like it was going to get out of hand early, but Penn State took advantage of a rare Ohio State turnover to turn what could have been a 24-7 hole into a 17-14 halftime score. 2) Bad […]

Ohio State 38, Penn State 14: Second Half Shutdown

For 30 minutes, Penn State, thanks to a key turnover and a lot of heart, looked like a team that had a chance at pulling off one of the biggest upsets in program history. But then the second half happened. Ohio State looked the part of the No. 1 team in the country with a […]

Redzone trickery strikes early against Rutgers

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. — Offensive coordinator Barry Lunney Jr. has not been afraid to pull out the trick plays all season. From a fullback toss to Hank Beatty for a touchdown against Ohio State, or the Philly Special remake against USC, Lunney Jr. has not been afraid to think outside the box. Thinking outside the box […]
