Uh oh OSU

VT will be the first loss of many next year....just saying

With OSU losing to VT last year, and with so many key guy returning to Columbus, I don't see how this game isn't a blowout, even with the suspensions. The Bucks will definitely have something to prove against VT this year. Although I thought that OSU would blow them out last year too. I'm definitely rooting for VaTech!!!

I didn't. Especially after how the offense looked in the opener vs Navy.

The suspensions shouldn't hurt the team that much. Not having Bosa is a huge loss on the defensive end, but I think they should be able to rally the troops. I'm not at all concerned about the suspensions on the offensive end.

Wishful thinking.

Urban lost control of the team in Florida. Looks like he is trying hard not to repeat that mistake.

Opinions vary. Proof is in the puddin like a NC trophy.

Yeah, for sure and it's the right thing to do. He has learned from his mistakes. If tOSU can get through this game without 3 weapons on offense and Bosa they should do just fine this season. It will only make them stronger. They have guys that could be playing but just other guys are better. The offense will do just fine and Bosa is a loss, but players will step up.

I'm not sure how OSU fans can say losing these players won't matter.

Our DBs played 1 on 1 last year with your WRs so we were completely able to shut down Elliot. We did just lose our starting SS, but our corners may be the best duo in the nation and you just lost your 2nd, 3rd, and 4th returning WRs.

I know full well you have a pretty stacked roster, but that's a lot of faith to be throwing on Braxton.

Funny you should post that... You'll notice that MaryJane has a seven-leaf pattern. the buckeye tree has a five-leaf pattern. The MaryJane leaves are thinner, elongated, and have more pronounced serrations.

You also faced Barrett, his 1st career game. The defense was shit early in the year, they improved tremdously. Also Elliott was not nearly the same running back and he only had 8 attempts. Things are definitely different this time around.
The offense could struggle, the defense should be much better than last year.

Did Ohio State get permission from Bosa to be suspended or is there going to be rash of killings from people being tackled in Columbus?

You were also going up against an offensive line that had exactly 1 game together and a QB with 1 collegiate start under his belt. Oh, and Elliott also had just 1 start under his belt. The entire offense was a work in progress for the first 1/2 of the season.

tOSU folk, just get used to it. It's just like clockwork.

Win a National Championship; then here come the suspensions, the transfers and the NFL floodgates. Seen it happen everywhere, except maybe Saban's Bama in recent years.

There will be more, and none will have huge impacts in and of themselves. But over time, they will start to add up.

Don't worry about us. We will get used to the National Championships. Maybe you should worry about when Texas might climb above 4th place in the Big 12.

I wasnt picking on yall, just pointing out that it comes with the territory.

If you want to be a jerk about it, that's on you.

Look at past NC winners, and what I said has been true on all of them. To win, you've got good players, and you'll have defections early to the NFL. Also, if you're good, you have players with an edge, so you will get suspensions. Lastly, if you're NC good, you'll get transfers because you have a fully stocked team of good players who want to play, and they all cant get on the field at the same time.

So, if you think I was wrong or being rude, than I dont know what to say.

This is true, its tough to keep their heads on straight. Saban had problems as well. Hopfully Meyer can minimize these issues.

Dont you dare state any facts, Mamba is on a roll in the land of the offended today.

Yeah, good point. It's nice to see that Urban has a set. IMO, he didn't handle all of the problems at Florida the right way.

Yep, good point. It happened to USC, amongst others
