Ohio State has to wake up from this big-game ‘Groundhog Day’
In life, I think that it is exceedingly healthy to turn every stumble, every setback, every failure into an opportunity to learn and grow. After all, once it’s over, those negatives are in the past, and there’s nothing you can do about them. But at some point, if the same stumbles, setbacks, and failures keep […]
All the news, analysis from Ohio State’s 24-23 loss to Texas
Look, we get it. Your days are busy, and you don’t have time to read all of the stories and tweets from the three dozen websites dedicated to covering Ohio State athletics, or the 237 Buckeye beat writers churning out hot takes and #content on a daily basis. But that’s ok; that’s what your friends […]
Ohio State’s linebackers vs Texas’ running backs decided the game
For nearly three quarters, Ohio State had Texas exactly where they wanted them. Then, everything fell apart. The Buckeyes led 23-3 entering the fourth quarter, controlling the line of scrimmage and suffocating Texas’ rushing attack. Raleek Brown’s fumble on the Longhorns’ opening possession seemed to set the stage for Ohio State to be in complete […]
Ohio State’s 24-23 loss to Texas is the worst non-Michigan defeat of Ryan Day’s tenure
I’ve been through a lot of ups and downs in my 45 years as an Ohio State fan, but tonight’s 24-23 loss to No. 4 Texas is going to be one of the toughest pills to swallow. In the first 30 minutes of the top-five matchup in Austin, everything went the way of the No. […]
Ohio State is 1-3 in its last four games, and Ryan Day needs to provide some answers — fast
There really isn’t much to be said about what happened to Ohio State on Saturday night. The Buckeyes dominated in the first half against Texas, holding a 20-3 lead at the half and extending that to a 23-3 lead with 8:09 left in the third quarter. The Longhorns proceeded to score touchdowns on three straight […]
The pressure is on Texas tonight; Ryan Day should go all-in
I am a poker player… not an especially good one, but someone who enjoys the ritual of sitting down at an upholstered table with seven to nine people I’ve never met before in an overly air-conditioned poker room for the mental and emotional torture of playing cards for three to 10 hours straight. There are […]

First down Players to watch for Texas 1) Arch Manning There’s no doubt who the biggest star for Texas is right now. Arch Manning is the projected top pick in the 2027 NFL Draft, and likely would have been the first pick in April’s draft had he declared. After opening up last season throwing for […]

Ohio State vs. Texas: 2026 game preview and prediction
Ohio State kicked off their 2026 season in style last week with a 56-3 win over Ball State. The Buckeyes have now won 27 consecutive season-opening games, which is not only the longest active streak among FBS schools; it is tied for the second-longest streak all-time. With the victory against the Cardinals, Ohio State is […]
Win or lose, Saturday’s game vs Texas is a positive for Ohio State (but I’d much prefer win)
Let’s get this out of the way at the very top. If Ohio State loses to Texas on Saturday, I will spend the rest of the weekend skulking around my house, nitpicking every single decision Ryan Day and his staff made. If the Buckeyes look unprepared, blow assignments, make inexplicable coaching decisions, or simply fail […]

MC&J: Ohio State hits the road for a clash with Texas in college football’s Week 2 slate
Last week ATS: 16-9 (4-3 National, 12-6 B1G) Last week was about as good of a start to the season as we could have asked for. About the only things that are sticking with me is trusting Rutgers as a 30-point favorite over UMass last Thursday, along with seeing Ohio State cover late. Had the […]

Column: Should big programs like Ohio State even bother to recruit high school QBs anymore?
The current college football landscape is almost completely different than it was even five years ago. Players can legally and rightfully be paid for their services, 12 teams make the College Football Playoff (and likely soon to be even more) and nobody recruits their own quarterbacks anymore. Rather than recruiting and developing a player out […]
