Ohio State 94, Penn State 62: Is It Over Yet?

Ohio State beat Penn State 94-62 on Wednesday night in a pitiful effort on Josh Reed’s Senior Night. The Nittany Lions fell to 3-16 in conference play and are all but locked into the bottom spot in the Big Ten standings. Penn State shot just 4 for 22 from the floor in the first half, […]

Matt Patricia’s return is a continuity boost for Ohio State

It’s safe to say not everyone was sold on Ryan Day’s hire of Matt Patricia as defensive coordinator when Jim Knowles took the Penn State job. Our own site listed the uncertainty of the choice as one of the Buckeyes’ biggest concerns last summer. While things hadn’t gone so well for Patricia as an NFL […]

Who will start at left tackle for Ohio State in 2026?

Ohio State’s most important offensive line question might not be whether the Buckeyes have enough talent. It is whether they can align that talent in the way that gives the entire unit its highest ceiling. Left tackle sits at the center of that conversation. Austin Siereveld handled the job last season and started all 14 […]

Ohio State makes the cut for pair of top-100 players

As the calendar turns to March, college football recruiting is really beginning to heat up. With programs across the country preparing for the start of spring practice, top prospects are cutting down their top schools lists and planning their official visits. Over the weekend, Ohio State made the cut for a pair of top-100 national […]

Ohio State’s nickel plan could be key to the 2026 defense

Ohio State’s secondary conversation naturally starts with replacing Caleb Downs, but one of the most important answers might actually come from a different spot on the field. Earl Little Jr., the Florida State transfer, gives the Buckeyes a veteran defensive back with real production, real versatility, and the kind of experience that can stabilize a […]

2025 SOTU Awards: Game of the Year – Ohio State

I have lived through 44 New Years Eves. I can now confidently say watching Miami beat that team from Ohio on NYE 2025 with my two-year old son takes the top spot for me. Let me walk you through my night of watching State of the U’s Game of the Year! Pregame: Nervous energy. While […]

Rondale Moore Dies at 25

Purdue fans will always remember October 20, 2018. Now both major stars from that night are gone way too soon. Yes, that was Tyler Trent’s big night as Purdue thumped No. 2 Ohio State 49-20, but it was Rondale Moore who put on a show that night. The call of, “HE’S STILL GOING!!!” when he […]

No. 5 Penn State 11, Ohio State 4: Who Needs Defense Anyway?

Gavin McKenna set a new program record with eight points in No. 5 Penn State’s 11-4 romp over Ohio State on Friday night. The Nittany Lions pounced on Ohio State’s poor goaltending early and often and delivered their most decisive win of the season. Penn State’s 11 goals matched a program record set on November […]

3 things that stood out from Wisconsin’s rough loss to Ohio State

One team came into Value City Arena ready to play from the tip-off, and the other team went through the motions. The Wisconsin Badgers, who we saw upset Illinois on the road and clobber Michigan State by 21 points at home, were nowhere to be found Tuesday night in Columbus. Ohio State, a team currently […]

New Notre Dame WR Mylan Graham said WHAT about Ohio State?

On Wednesday, Notre Dame began its “unveiling” of the incoming coaches, freshmen, and transfers by holding some combo press conferences inside the Irish Athletic Center. Probably the most talked about comments came from Ohio State transfer WR Mylan Graham. When asked about the biggest difference is between Notre Dame and Ohio State, the former New […]

Making the case for Jaylen McClain to be an All-American in 2026

The easiest way to spot a future All-American defensive back is not always by hunting for the loudest stat line. Sometimes it is by finding the player coaches trust to keep the structure intact, snap after snap, against the best offenses on the schedule. For Ohio State, that player is Jaylen McClain, and the case […]

Off-Script Ohio: Five favorites from the Ryan Day Era

Ohio State did not take the field this week, and won’t for awhile, but that never really stops the conversation in Columbus. On the newest episode of Off-Script Ohio, we leaned into the kind of offseason debate Buckeye fans do best. Who you loved watching most, which recent stars you would drop onto the 2026 […]

Ohio State in prime position for two top 2027 targets

Sure, Brian Hartline may be gone, but Ohio State is not letting that impact the standards they have set at the wide receiver position. Still one of the most talented groups in the country, the on-field production will be counted on in 2026. Newly named position coach Cortez Hankton will be expected to uphold the […]

Julian Sayin’s preseason All-American case, and the biggest obstacle in his way

After putting together my preseason All-American projection for Ohio State, the most interesting debate point wasn’t Jeremiah Smith (he’s the easiest lock on the roster). It was Julian Sayin, because quarterback is the one position where “elite” still doesn’t guarantee first-team preseason status. Sayin already owns the exact resume voters lean on in August. He […]
