Beating Michigan since 1919.
When K.J. Hill became Ohio State’s career leader in receptions back during the 2019 season — less than seven years ago in geological time, but in world events it might as well have been the 18th century — he broke a record that had stood since David Boston snagged his 198th pass in 1998. Hill […]
It’s amazing to think about how long the offseason is in college football. Then again, coaches and other members of football programs may tell you there isn’t an offseason. For the Buckeyes, there will have been over eight months in between their last game in 2025 and their first game in 2026. Between now and […]
Rivals released its final rankings for the 2026 class last week, and Ohio State saw a number of its commits receive high praise. Five incoming Buckeye freshmen finished the recruiting cycle as five-star prospects, tying Notre Dame for the most of any program. Those five are, in order: Overall, Ohio State finished with 11 players […]
For six weeks this season, the Nebraska Cornhuskers saw their name in the top-25 Associated Press rankings, until this week. Even so, Big Red brought a two-game winning streak with them to Columbus for a matchup with No. 11 Ohio State women’s basketball in a matchup of two star sophomore point guards in Buckeye Jaloni […]

While most of the country was facing down a cold front this week, several Ohio State winter sports teams were heating up, delivering big plays and big wins in both men’s and women’s basketball, men’s wrestling and more. If you missed any of the action, don’t worry. I’ve rounded up the highlights for you below: […]
Every year, dynamic freshmen enter the Big Ten women’s basketball conference. Now, with an 18-team conference, that is even more true than before. Last season, the quality of new guards in the conference was hard to match across the power conferences. Ohio State women’s basketball benefited from the play of Big Ten Freshman of the […]
Things started out well for the Buckeyes (14-7, 6-5) Saturday afternoon in Madison, but they fizzled out throughout the game as the Badgers (16-6, 8-3) shot their way to a 92-82 win over the Buckeyes. Ohio State got off to a 15-4 lead early, but the Badgers quickly rebounded to take a 49-43 lead into […]
As if college athletics haven’t been wild enough lately, with trying to keep track of who is headed where in college football in the transfer portal, college basketball decided it was time to enter the chat.

Sunday begins the home stretch for Ohio State women’s basketball.

If it feels like No. 11 Ohio State women’s basketball consistently starts slow in games, it is because that is exactly what is happening. The 2025-26 Buckeyes welcomed the Wisconsin Badgers to Columbus on Thursday night, and the game went as expected when compared to the rest of the season. Ohio State beat the Badgers […]
Happy Friday once again, and happy Wisconsin eve! Ohio State (14-6, 6-4) heads to The Badger State tomorrow to take on Wisconsin (15-6, 7-3) in a nationally televised showdown on FOX.

For most of the season, Taison Chatman has existed on the fringes of Ohio State’s rotation. Visible on the bench, active in warmups, but rarely part of the nightly plan. That changed against Penn State. With Gabe Cupps sidelined, Chatman was thrust into real minutes, and for the first time all season, he made them […]
On October 20, when the Ohio State men’s basketball team hosted an open practice for fans to come out and watch the 127th team in program history, someone who works closely with the team said something to me that I, at the time, thought was absurd. “I think Juni (Mobley) is going to be our […]

After a tough trip to Iowa City for No. 11 Ohio State women’s basketball, the Buckeyes returned to Columbus for the first of two home games this week. Wisconsin started the game strong, but a 29-point game from point guard Jaloni Cambridge was the difference in the 81-58 Ohio State victory. First quarter There was […]
Ohio State’s women’s hockey team has come out of the gates strong in 2026. With two wins last weekend over St. Thomas, the Buckeyes have now all eight of the games they have played in the new year. The last time Ohio State suffered a loss came in their final two games of 2025 when […]
Ohio State has long been a pipeline to the first round of the NFL Draft. This year, it has a chance to do something rarer and far more difficult: Put four Buckeyes inside the top 10. It is an outcome that would normally sound hyperbolic. Top-10 selections are shaped by positional value, team need, and […]
After the worst Big Ten loss of the season for No. 11 Ohio State women’s basketball, the Buckeyes finish January with the Wisconsin Badgers. The Scarlet and Gray’s 91-70 defeat to the Iowa Hawkeyes on Sunday showed a team struggling to adjust to the absence of redshirt freshman forward Kylee Kitts. While the Badgers have […]

A position that can never have enough depth, Ohio State is constantly looking to add talent in the trenches.

College football’s offseason rarely delivers clarity. This week, Ohio State got exactly that. The Buckeyes’ 2026 schedule release laid out a season that feels both familiar and unforgiving. A marquee early trip to Texas anchors September, while October brings road tests at Iowa and Indiana before a bye. November offers no relief, USC on the […]
