Off-Script Ohio: Midseason awards, more chaos and the Heisman race

Ohio State takes a bye, but college football erupts. Cole and Joey reveal their midseason Buckeye awards—including MVP, offensive and defensive players of the year—sparking debate. The week’s chaos sees No. 2 BYU lose to UCF in double OT, No. 8 Texas Tech fall at Cincinnati, and Wisconsin rout No. 16 USC, Ohio State’s next foe. Iowa and Tennessee drop on walk‑off kicks, while No. 6 Utah and No. 4 Indiana survive. Heisman odds keep Jeremiah Smith (+120) on top, but Darian Mensah and Malachi Toney close in for the top three.

Ohio State’s struggles in the 2027 class at running back have only gotten worse

Ohio State’s 2027 recruiting class, ranked No. 6 nationally, now has no running backs committed after top targets Jordan Hall and five‑star David Gabriel Georges chose Penn State and Tennessee, respectively. Hall, the No. 60 RB nationally, flipped from Ohio State to Penn State, leaving the Buckeyes scrambling less than two months before Signing Day. Coach Ryan Day may have to poach a committed player, with Wisconsin’s Kingston Allen—ranked No. 7 at the position—being the most realistic option. Other prospects like Jayden Miles (FSU) and Nigel Newkirk (Alabama) remain on the radar, but the RB hole deepens as the deadline approaches.

Ryan Day Handed Unexpected Lifeline as Lincoln Riley Faces Growing Pressure to Save His Coaching Future at USC

USC’s offense, once a hallmark of Lincoln Riley, collapses in a 24-7 loss to Wisconsin—the fewest points ever scored by a Riley‑coached team and a -17 rushing yard total. After an early 6‑1 start, the Trojans now sit 6‑2, and Riley’s job hangs in the balance as Ohio State arrives on Halloween without starter Julian Sayin. A loss to a backup QB could end Riley’s tenure, though firing him may cost $100‑$120 million due to his $70 million buyout. With a tough remaining schedule—including Indiana, Maryland and unbeaten UCLA—the Trojans face a pivotal week that could determine Riley’s future at USC.
