Noon on FOX.
The all-time series has been entirely within B1G East play over the past 5 years, with OSU winning all 5 games and scoring at least 49 points each time. Though Maryland came one failed overtime 2 point conversion away from ruining the Buckeyes Big Ten Championship run last year.

I often wonder if this years coaching staff was in place, for last years team, would that Maryland O.T. drama have taken place and would the debacle at West LaFayette been avoided? I'm thinking neither would have occurred and they would have been a CFP participant. We've seen a dramatic improvement in so many ways and so many aspects, it all has to point to the coaching staff. I love Urban for all he has done and accomplished, but nary a tear has been lost over his untimely departure. Ohio State football has become a better place. |

MUCH easier for coaching staffs to mold a sound defense when they're Juniors as opposed to Sophomores.

Day says THE single biggest factor in the change is the players having to live with their bad play over an off season and their determination to not let it happen again.
Davon Hamilton says their biggest problem last year was that they were playing for themselves, worrying about personal stats. This year they're playing for the "brotherhood".

I appreciate what they were saying and sure the attitudes have changed, but I think it's a case where coach Day doesn't want to get involved with a blame game. It is widely agreed, the defensive coaching last year was bordering on horrendous. It had to be frustrating being a LB last year, knowing they were being setup for failure, with poor strategical positioning. Time and time again, they were getting sealed out of the play. Something is wrong when the leading tacklers are CB's & safeties. Going from worst to first in one year, says the talent was there, it was being poorly utilized. |

Some moron picked Maryland!🤣 The same moron who has picked Ohio State to lose all season. This moron will be picking Rutgers to pull off the upset of the century, next week. I'm fairly certain he wears a lot of sporting attire with a big, ugly yellow 'M' emblazoned on his chest. Of course, we know what that 'M' stands for......you got it!........ MORON......LOL |

Ryan Day is doing exactly what he should with the talent he was left with by Urban. Let’s recheck this in a few years when Urban’s kid’s are gone and he’s left to his own devices to succeed. Many a coach who had success with his predecessors players has gone down to be a total bust just a few years later when he’s left to his own devices. Mark Helfrich at Oregon being a prime example. |

I’ve never seen an onside kick that’s basically a pass.

Only time will tell, but I would be hard pressed to see Day, not be successful after all Urban’s recruits are gone.

Mark Helfrich at Oregon being a prime example. i would tend to agree atm but a few caveots: Day has Urban's crew in place, mainly Pantoni and Voltolini. Day has NFL experience and a proven track record of QB excellence with all types of QBs, not just system guys. Day is already recruiting at a high level and we are going to get the kid who just de-committed from FSU, whose name i am brainfarting on right now. Day's current QB and WR recruits are off the chain. |

Jaylon Knighton is the kid from FSU you’re thinking of.

Obviously it’s always great to add more talent but if he doesn’t come here we’re just fine. We’ll still have Teague next year as well as chambers and Crowley and then coming in next year will be cameron Martinez who is a beast too. And we’ve got Jalen Gill from Columbus who hasn’t seen much time yet because of the depth.

I don't see much daylight for him on the depth chart. |

agreed on Knighton, i wasn't real concerned when he committed to FSU but it would a semi-coup for Day to add this kid

I have thought the same thing too about Gill but then you look at someone like Demario McCall who I compare to Gill a bit and McCall has stuck it out and not transferred so you never know. But it wouldn’t shock me if he did transfer. There’s always a few that do every offseason.

i wonder about McCall because the word down here was that the staff really really wanted him to win the backup RB job but he just could never get there

Not big enough nor strong enough. An example of a kid who would have been better off at Akron or Kent or BG.
Sometimes you aren't quite good enough to beat out the comp at OSU. If you are a RB or a DB,,,my gosh you had better be good or you'll sit.

Speaking of Crowley earlier, he’s looked pretty good running today too, even though it is against backups.
But now he’s down on the field hurt, hopefully nothing serious.

Crowley has loads of potential. He has all the tools to be an outstanding RB. He impressed me this spring. How about those Gophers? Penn State fought back at the end and it looked like they might pull it out, but the INT. put an end to that. This is what I was hoping for, a narrow Gopher win, so it didn't do too much damage to the Nittany Lions value in two weeks. Not a single soul pulled the switch for Minnesota in our football picks, but I have to admit, I sat and pondered over that one for quite a while. |

If Maryland "ratted" Chase Young out, instead of telling the NCAA, they did Ohio State a favor. It gave Ohio State a chance to self-report, instead of being caught with their pants down. THANK YOU MARYLAND!!

Maryland had a recruit de-commit at halftime. Rumor is (i am not into recruiting as heavy as some so i haven't taken the time to look) the young man went to Chase's HS and found out that Maryland ratted on Chase, hence the de-commit...on twitter. Ha.

Ha. AGAIN....thank you Maryland. MUCH better for Ohio State to find out from ANYONE other than the NCAA. IF Maryland REALLY wanted to hurt Young and Ohio State they would have told the NCAA instead of Ohio State and waited until just before the playoffs. Must be dumb people in Maryland. |
