Speed Option: Northwestern Wildcats
There are some lopsided series in conference play across the nation and the one between Ohio State and Northwestern is one of those with the Buckeyes holding a 64-14-1 edge, having won every game since 2004 and having to go back to 1971 for the next most recent loss in the series, more than 50 …

Speed Option: Penn State Nittany Lions

Trio Of Buckeyes Make Preseason Honors List
INDIANAPOLIS – The Big Ten does not release preseason conference teams to kick off the season and has instead moved to a list of 10 players, five from the East and five from the West as “players to watch” and needless to say, the Buckeyes have taken more than their own fair share of the …
Burke & Hickman make Jim Thorpe List
Award Watch List season is entering second week and the Buckeyes have a pair of players on the Jim Thorpe Award list, an honor bestowed upon the nation’s top defensive back.

Speed Option: Michigan State Spartans
Michigan State made a splash last season with a 11-2 record, win over Michigan and being right there in the Big Ten East race until the second to final weekend of the regular season before Ohio State dashed those hopes with a 56-7 over a depleted Spartan squad. The Spartans had to hit the portal …
Speed Option: Rutgers Scarlet Knights
At least Rutgers means something in terms of television sets, research dollars and suddenly sports other than football.

We roll on with Award Watch List season and today the Biletnikoff Award is taking center stage. This award goes to Division I-FBS’s top receiver, regardless of position (WR, TE, Slot, pass catching RB).

Speed Option: Toledo Rockets
It is hard to believe that the Buckeyes and Rockets have only played a grand total of three times coming into the 2022 season but that is the case and you have to go back 11 years ago for the last meeting, a way-too-close game where Toledo led in the fourth quarter. But we all …
