Beating Michigan since 1919.
Last week ATS: 7-2 (7-1 National, 0-1 B1G) Season ATS: 132-113 (65-56 National, 67-57 B1G) Aside from Ohio State and Virginia losing on Saturday night, my picks for the rest of the conference title games were flawless. Now we head into bowl season nearly 20 games up on .500. Over the next month I’ll have […]

Each November, college basketball teams take part in Feast Week. Programs travel to exotic locales, or Las Vegas ballrooms, to play in-season “tournaments.” The games feature nonconference matchups against sides, and players get the chance to check out the beach between school work, practice, games, and team events. For Ohio State women’s basketball, they may […]

In 2025, after moving to Ohio State, […]

Accolades matter in the world of college football. There’s no way around this. For fans, they’re how we dole out bragging rights. Beating our rivals, winning the conference, and winning bowl games or national championships all factor into how much trash you get to talk about a season. Even in Ohio State’s 2024 national championship […]

Ohio State’s lack of execution and creativity led to the downfall of the offense against Indiana in Saturday’s Big Ten Championship. Winning the conference title for the first time since 2020 was the last monkey that Ryan Day was hoping to get off of his back to cap a remarkable one-year run. However, the Buckeyes […]

The numbers: Smith’s historic start As of Dec. 8, 2025, Jeremiah Smith’s career totals of 156 receptions, 2,401 receiving yards and 26 touchdowns at Ohio State have him positioned to rewrite the Buckeye record book faster than anyone expected. Those numbers already place him on an all-time trajectory, and they put him remarkably close to […]

A week after we praised Ohio State for being Ohio State in The Game, the Buckeyes decided to play very unlike themselves in a 13-10 Big Ten championship game loss to Indiana. The defense did well to hold the Hoosiers’ high-powered offense to 13 points despite Kenyatta Jackson being tackled seemingly on every play, but […]

Ohio State is now 12-1 following a defeat in the Big Ten Championship to the nation’s top team, Indiana. The 13-10 defeat feels eerily similar to last year’s loss to Michigan late in the season with the same final score. The hope, as said by Ryan Day following the game, is that this loss can […]

A 48-point blowout for the No. 6 Michigan Wolverines over the Purdue Boilermakers, a shocking 78-64 home win for the Wisconsin Badgers over then No. 20 Michigan State, and a double-overtime thriller where the Minnesota […]

Ohio State’s undefeated season is over, and the 2025 Buckeyes will have to settle for competing for a national championship after missing out on the conference one.

Look, we all know Saturday night didn’t go the way we wanted to, but sometimes you have to give credit where credit is due. Indiana is really good, and Curt Cignetti is on an absolute heater. Who would have thought we would have said that Ohio State left the door open for Indiana in the […]

Ohio State’s last Heisman winner was Troy Smith, who won the trophy following the 2006 season, and it will almost certainly remain that way this year. That 19-year drought has been one of the few blemishes on an otherwise elite program resume, and it is now stretching into a new era as the 2025 race […]

When I woke up on Sunday morning, I was disappointed, but I also realized that our beloved Buckeyes got beaten by the better team on the night, […]
