Buckeye Breakdown

Ohio State welcomed the Maryland Terrapins for a week 6 matchup at the Horseshoe in Columbus, Ohio. Things didn't look smooth early, but Ohio State's defense kept things in check until Kyle McCord, Marvin Harrison, Emeka Egbuka and the rest of the offense were able to find their stride in the 37-17 victory. What looked good? What looked bad? What needs improved upon as Ohio State takes another step in their 2023 campaign?

The Buckeyes are nearly 3-touchdown favorites on Saturday and they may pose the best offensive threat the Buckeyes have seen to date (yes, including Notre Dame, believe it or not). But the Buckeyes have dominated the Terrapins in their last three trips to Columbus and the Scarlet and Gray certainly have their sites set on another convincing win. Brendan Gulick and Anthony Moeglin jump into where the Buckeyes might have a bit of an edge in their first game out of the bye week. ----- Subscribe to our YouTube channel for more coverage of the Buckeyes!

Ohio State is healthy as it comes off it's lone bye week of the season, but they are gearing up to play a confident team in the Maryland Terrapins. Maryland enters the week as the team ranked outside that AP Top 25 that received the most votes and they feature a squad that is arguably the fourth best in the Big Ten. Brendan Gulick and Anthony Moeglin dive into some of the Maryland personnel and what Ohio State can expect with the Terps come to The 'Shoe this weekend! ----- Subscribe to our YouTube channel for more coverage of the Buckeyes!

The Ohio State Buckeyes had the weekend off before they dive into a game each Saturday for the next two months. Still riding some of the high from the win over Notre Dame, there's lots of momentum around the program as they prepare for a very talented Maryland team. The Terrapins are unbeaten and a solid test - they're the first team outside of the Top 25 this week and they should present a nice challenge to an Ohio State team that's playing nicely balanced football.

Saturday night's game goes down in the annals of Ohio State history for many reasons. But the most important one in the moment - it kept the Buckeyes' perfect season intact and it stood up to so many of the doubters around the nation. The Scarlet and Gray proved to themselves that they could go win in a hostile environment, even when it felt like all hope was lost. Brendan Gulick and Anthony Moeglin reflect on all that they learned from the Buckeyes' most dramatic win in a long, long time.

It's Christmas Eve for college football fans across the country. The Week 4 slate is arguably the best weekend of games all season long, which will be capped off by the marquee matchup in South Bend that pins Ohio State against Notre Dame.

Ohio State's biggest test of the season is 48 hours away in South Bend as the Buckeyes get ready to play Notre Dame. A win on Saturday puts either team squarely in the thick of the national championship contender conversation and would be considered one of the best wins in the country this season. As we preview the game throughout the week, this morning we'll take a look at the Irish personnel and try to identify some areas of concern and some places the Buckeyes have an advantage.

The Buckeyes have known for months that they had a 3-game build up to their first "real" test, even though they would never acknowledge that fact publicly. With a 3-0 record in place and after having learned an awful lot about their own strengths and weaknesses, Ohio State is ready to take on a Notre Dame Fighting Irish team that is eager to prove it's a College Football Playoff contender. In fact, you could argue that the winner of this game should receive first place votes in next week's AP Poll. Ryan Day and Jim Knowles met with the media on Tuesday afternoon, expressing a business-like attitude this week and knowing they are ready for a stout test on the road. Thankfully, unlike last season, the Buckeyes had a chance to build up to playing this game rather than opening the season against the Irish. Brendan Gulick and Anthony Moeglin begin their week-long conversation previewing this weekend's matchup, including their reaction to what they heard from the Woody Hayes Athletic Center this afternoon.

The Ohio State Buckeyes completely annihilated the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers on Saturday afternoon, 63-10. Certainly the score suggests the game wasn't particularly competitive, but the stats and individual performances on both sides of the ball suggest the Buckeyes took a big step forward. Kyle McCord was incredibly efficient, completing 19-of-23 passes for 318 yards and three touchdowns. He connected on a couple of really long throws and routinely hit receivers in perfect rhythm. It wasn't a flawless performance from McCord, but it was darn close. Marvin Harrison Jr. ended the day with five catches for 126 yards and a touchdown, while Emeka Egbuka caught four passes for 57 yards and two scores. But equally as impressive was the defensive side of the ball. The Silver Bullets recorded eight tackles for loss, six pass break ups, forced three fumbles, intercepted two passes and scored two touchdowns. In both respects, it was the kind of performance the Buckeyes needed as they get ready to head to South Bend next weekend.

Ohio State seems to understand that Western Kentucky has an entirely different kind of offensive philosophy than the Indiana Hoosiers and Youngstown State Penguins. WKU is one of the most pass-happy teams in all of college football and the Buckeyes are going to be tested in a very different way on Saturday. But who are the Hilltoppers and what does their personnel look like? What can we come to expect from a team that is a 26-point underdog that goes and plays every week like they have nothing to lose?

Ohio State won it's first two games against a team that ran the triple option and an FCS opponent that wanted to throw the ball within two seconds of snapping it (after they milked the play clock as far as they could). Tuesday afternoon, Ryan Day and Jim Knowles both admitted that Saturday's game against Western Kentucky will present an entirely different kind of challenge. With Kyle McCord now officially leading the offense, Ohio State is settling into it's offensive identity for the season. They looked much more comfortable attacking through the air against the Penguins, given a bit more experience from McCord. That said, Ohio State hasn't seen a team with the kind of offensive air-raid philosophy probably since Michael Penix Jr. and the Indiana Hoosiers came to a carboard-cutout filled Horseshoe in 2020. Jim Knowles wasn't in charge of the Silver Bullets at that point, but he certainly saw plenty of pass-heavy offenses in the Big 12. Knowles made a couple of notable admissions to reporters on Tuesday around his coaching adjustments away from an ultra-aggressive defense in order to give his secondary a better chance to prevent big plays from leaking over the top. That was OSU's Achilles heel in 2021 and 2022 in losses to Oregon, Georgia and twice to Michigan. Brendan Gulick and Anthony Moeglin discuss what the heard from both coaches on Tuesday and why it matters as the Buckeyes set the tone for the remainder of the season.

As he does every Tuesday, Ryan Day will meet with the media to reflect on last week's performance against Youngstown State and begin looking ahead to Western Kentucky. At this point in the season, nearly every question Day is asked revolves around the Buckeyes - he's rarely asked about the team that they're playing the coming Saturday. Here are the questions we most want answered from Day on Tuesday (although we aren't sure how straightforward of an answer we are going to get): - What is the solution with the offensive line? It almost looks like they are stuck in camp mode mentally. He's made it clear he thinks the issues are correctable, but last week didn't really show a ton of improvement and their opponent was unquestionably inferior compared to Week 1. How will the coaches approach offensive line rotation? - On the defensive line, as much as Western Kentucky wants to throw the ball, this should be a week that unit could get on track. What is it going to take for a pass-rushing group that we've heard so much about to make a significant impact? - Is Day finally ready to plant a flag in the ground and say this is Kyle McCord's team? Or is he going to continue the QB competition this week and give Devin Brown reps during meaningful moments in the game? And how is he evaluating McCord's development? - What constitutes a successful outcome this week in Day's eyes? Obviously the goal is to win convincingly. But what does that need to look like so he feels like they are firing on all cylinders before the team travels to Notre Dame next week? Brendan Gulick and Anthony Moeglin address all of that and more on Tuesday's edition of the Buckeye Breakdown podcast! Join the guys live every week day morning at 7 AM to talk Ohio State football.

Yesterday's Ohio State win over FCS opponent Youngstown State was largely a decent performance. It was plenty good enough to win on Saturday against a team they were overmatched against, but did it entirely "look the part"? How could it have been if they only scored 35 points, including just 7 in the second half? There's so much to get into from the Week 2 performance, including: - Why I think the Kyle McCord vs. Devin Brown battle is over - Why did the second half lack any real punch? - How serious is the problem on the offensive line? - Why have the defensive ends generated such little pressure through two games? - TreVeyon Henderson ran with bad intentions - Marvin Harrison Jr. is the ultimate game-breaker - How can Ohio State overcome having limited possessions? - Was the score of the game misleading?

The Ohio State Buckeyes came back to the 'Shoe and took care of business against the visiting Youngstown State Penguins. The first half looked like what we are accustomed to seeing, with Ohio State's explosive offensive putting on a show with some long scores, and with stout defense locking down the Penguins after surrendering an opening score. Most importantly though, Kyle McCord looked really good and appears to have won the starting quarterback job.

The Ohio State Buckeyes have left lots of national college football fans wondering if they're going to actually be a team that factors into the College Football Playoff picture this season after the ONLY beat Indiana, 23-3. Ryan Day's offense looked clunky and much of the day screamed "Week 1." The good news? The defense looked outstanding, especially considering they needed to adjust to a scheme they hadn't practiced for all week. With an FCS opponent coming to town, Ohio State has every opportunity to get things back on track and build up some confidence. Brendan Gulick and Anthony Moeglin explain why they think the Buckeyes will do exactly that, including a score prediction as they preview Saturday's first game back inside Ohio Stadium since the loss to Michigan last November.

Ohio State's Week 1 win over Indiana has been discussed ad nauseum over the last several days, but the team has been hard at work preparing for Youngstown State to come to Columbus for the first home game of the season. We heard from several players after practice on Wednesday night, all of whom indicated they were happy to be turning their attention to the next game and that they know they have things to work on, but they were glad to start the season with a win. We'll share some more post-practice observations with you this morning, as well as give you a little overview of what you can expect with the Penguins coming to town for only the third time ever.

Ohio State head coach Ryan Day met with the media on Tuesday afternoon to discuss his team's 23-3 win over the Indiana Hoosiers to open the season. In his 52 games coaching the Buckeyes, it was only the fourth time they were held under 30 points in a game. The other three times came against an elite Iowa defense last year, against Northwestern last year in miserable weather, and in the 2021 National Championship Game against Alabama when the Buckeyes were missing several key players because of CoVID-19. There were clearly issues on the left side of the offensive line in Week 1. Day claims everything they saw on tape is fixable, he shared which linemen graded out as a champion on Saturday, said they aren't going to be a team that solely relies on throwing the ball and shared Kyle McCord's reaction to watching the film together.

The Ohio State Buckeyes opened the year with a solid, albeit not a blowout win at Indiana last weekend. As they turn their attention to Saturday's game against Youngstown State, Ryan Day has a number of pressing questions that need answers soon. Has he essentially decided that Kyle McCord is QB1 this year (and not just last week), and if he hasn't decided that, what is the thought process behind such little playing time for Devin Brown against the Hoosiers? How did he evaluate the offensive line play on Saturday? Will we continue to see a lot of 2-tight end packages, or were the Buckeyes running a scheme against IU that they thought made Kyle McCord comfortable to open the year?

The season-opening win for the Ohio State Buckeyes left plenty of room for growth, but a 20-point win on the road in the Big Ten is a nice start to the 2023 season. Still, there's plenty of room to grow in at quarterback, on the offensive line, on the play sheet and in short yardage situations.

It's incredible to wake up and realize that Ohio State football is just one day away. Many of the off-season questions have been answered and the Buckeyes haven't forgotten what it felt like to have their national championship dreams sail wide left as the clock struck midnight on New Year's Eve in Atlanta last year. This year's roster is unquestionably good enough to win the national title if they get consistent quarterback play and stay healthy. The road starts Saturday in Bloomington against a Hoosiers team that the Buckeye's haven't lost to since 1988.

Ohio State's defense took a major step forward in 2022 under Jim Knowles. The expectation is that the second year with his system should be even better, as the Buckeyes try to eliminate the big plays that ultimately ended their national championship hopes last year. Indiana's offense needs some work and this should be a good opener for the Silver Bullets. Brendan Gulick and Anthony Moeglin break down the Hoosiers by position and detail what schemes they'd most like to run given their personnel, as well as how the Bucks can stop them.

Ohio State's Class of 2024 is certainly among the best in the country so far - and much of it is thanks to Brian Hartline. After having already landed the top-ranked wide receiver, running back and offensive lineman in the class, the Buckeyes got another stellar commitment from 5-star receiver Mylan Graham on Tuesday. Brendan Gulick and John Garcia Jr. break down the latest on the recruiting trail in the latest recruiting episode of Buckeye Breakdown. ----- Subscribe to our YouTube channel for more coverage of the Buckeyes!

Ohio State just lost to Georgia in the semifinal round of the College Football Playoff, 42-41. The Buckeyes maintained control of the action for much of the game, as C.J. Stroud and the Ohio State passing offense got on the board early and often in the first half. Not only did Stroud throw four touchdown passes, but he made several key plays with his legs when the Buckeye offense needed a conversion or spark. Marvin Harrison Jr. was Stroud's top target in the first half, grabbing five receptions for 105 yards and two touchdowns, but missed the late stretch of the game when he was placed in concussion protocol. The Buckeye defense had some good moments in the game, but the fourth quarter collapse was one that will be hard for Ohio State faithful to swallow. Stetson Bennett led a game-winning touchdown drive that put Georgia up on the scoreboard with under a minute remaining. Ohio State had one last chance with two timeouts and just under one minute, and Stroud willed the offense into field goal range to set up a potential game-winner. Noah Ruggles missed the 50-yard attempt, and the Buckeyes season came to a close.  The Bulldogs move on to the College Football Playoff National Championship on Monday, January 9, against TCU.

The Ohio State Buckeyes and Alabama Crimson Tide are both sitting out conference championship weekend, which is certainly unusual given their success as programs. There seems to be some debate on which team should be ranked 5th in tonight's penultimate College Football Playoff rankings. Brendan Gulick and Craig Hyson weigh in on that, plus a few other topics in the aftermath of the Buckeyes' loss to Michigan this past weekend, including Ohio State's botched fake punt, whether Ryan Day should give up play-calling, Luke Fickell's new job at Wisconsin and The Ohio State University's President Johnson's rather sudden resignation. ----- Subscribe to our YouTube channel for more coverage of the Buckeyes!

After 3 months of undefeated football, the Ohio State Buckeyes completely fell apart in the second half against Michigan on Saturday and lost their rivalry game, 45-23. It was the worst home loss in the rivalry since 1976 and it drained a lot of Ohio State fans emotionally after the Wolverines stampeded their way to victory with a couple of long fourth quarter touchdown runs. Brendan Gulick and Craig Hyson share what they learned from a tough day in Columbus and begin discussing where the Buckeyes go from here. ----- Subscribe to our YouTube channel for more coverage of the Buckeyes!

Brendan Gulick and Andrew Lind provide instant analysis from Columbus following Ohio State's second-half collapse against Michigan. Ohio State welcomed Michigan back to Columbus for a winner-take-all battle at Ohio Stadium, but the “revenge game” this was billed as turned out to be heartbreaker for Buckeye Nation.  The Wolverines outmatched the Buckeyes this afternoon with a quick strike offense and balance that were difficult for Ohio State to match. The game opened up as a shootout early, which looked to favor Ohio State, but as the battle continued into the second half, Michigan began to slow the pace of play and forcing the Buckeyes into mental mistakes and penalties that put the team behind-the-sticks. The limited possessions of the third quarter allowed the Wolverines to establish a ground attack that struggled to get going in the first half, and the Wolverines took a 24-20 lead into the fourth quarter, which they wouldn't relinquish. Ohio State had opportunities to come back into the game late, as Jake Moody missed a 57-yard field goal attempt that gave the offense a short field to work with midway through the fourth, but the Buckeyes were unable to finish drives in the pivotal moments down the stretch. Donovan Edwards put the nail in the coffin for Ohio State with two late touchdown runs of 75 and 85 yards. Michigan now sets its sights on the Big Ten Championship game, while the Buckeyes await their postseason fate. ----- Subscribe to our YouTube channel for more coverage of the Buckeyes!

It's been a long year, but it's finally time for the Ohio State Buckeyes to try and avenge last year's gut-wrenching loss to the Michigan Wolverines. The Scarlet and Gray had won eight in a row and many fans didn't expect last year's loss to happen, which left a particularly bitter taste in the Buckeyes mouths. This time around, with the changing landscape in College Football Playoff (and certainly in the Big Ten), it's fair to wonder if this is the last time this game could have stakes THIS high for the biggest rivalry in sports.

Brendan Gulick and Andrew Lind provide instant analysis from Columbus following the Ohio State Buckeyes' huge 56-14 win over Indiana. Ohio State returned home to a snowy Ohio Stadium after two consecutive road games, and maybe home-cooking was all the Buckeyes needed to rebound from a close-call last week at Northwestern. The running game deficiencies that had plagued the team in recent weeks disappeared this afternoon, as the they gained 340 yards on the ground. Miyan Williams accounted for 145 of those yards and a touchdown in the first half before being carted off with a leg injury. Xavier Johnson scored on an impressive 71-yard run and Dallan Hayden also hit pay dirt, giving the Buckeyes three different runners to score a touchdown. C.J. Stroud looked much more comfortable in the pocket today than he did last week, throwing for 297 yards and five touchdowns. Marvin Harrison Jr. continued his jaw-dropping play with a few more highlights to add to his season-long reel, and finished the day with seven receptions for 135 yards and a 58-yard touchdown reception.  Lathan Ransom and Tommy Eichenberg led the way for the Buckeye defense. Ransom finished second on the team in tackles, adding 1.5 sacks and a blocked punt, while Eichenberg recorded three tackles-for-loss. The Buckeye defense as a unit was outstanding situationally, holding the Hoosiers to 3-for-18 on third and fourth-down conversion attempts.  The Buckeyes look ahead to their final two games of the regular season, and face-off against Maryland next Saturday before a meeting with Michigan on Nov. 26.

Brendan Gulick and Andrew Lind provide instant analysis following the Ohio State Buckeyes' sluggish 21-7 victory against the Northwestern Wildcats. It wasn't a pretty victory by any stretch of the imagination in Evanston for Ohio State today, as they struggled to establish consistent offensive production all game against Northwestern. The weather was a major storyline, as gusts of over 50 mph made it difficult for either team to throw the ball.  The Buckeyes once again found it difficult to move the ball on the ground, and outside of a 27-yard touchdown by Miyan Williams in the third quarter that gave the Buckeyes the lead, their situational execution on short-yardage third and forth downs left more to be desired. They ended the game with 202 rushing yards, but it wasn't a dominant performance on the ground. TreVeyon Henderson was out of the game after missing practice all week with a foot injury, and his presence was missed as the Buckeyes turned to C.J. Stroud to provide a secondary spark in the running game. He proved to be effective, highlighted by a 44-yard run down the right sideline in the fourth quarter. Williams capped off that drive with a touchdown, and the Buckeyes held on to win. Northwestern relied heavily on their running game, gaining 206 yards on the ground and out-gaining Ohio State by a slim 285-283 margin overall. Brendan Sullivan only attempted 14 passes all game, and exited late with an injury.The offense frequently shifted in the wildcat formation with Evan Hull taking direct snaps; Northwestern had success with this early, but as the game entered its later stages, the Ohio State defense adjusted. J.T. Tuimoloau flashed on a few notable plays yet again this week, nearly intercepting a pass in the first quarter and recording a tackle-for-loss. The Buckeyes now turn the page to next Saturday's matchup against the Indiana Hoosiers in Columbus. ----- Subscribe to our YouTube channel for more coverage of the Buckeyes!

The Ohio State Buckeyes are two thirds of the way through an unbeaten regular season and it seems like they have three very winnable games on the schedule before they host Michigan on November 26. But college football is a funny game and the weather forecast on Saturday in Evanston doesn't look very good. Could that somehow derail OSU? Northwestern won its opener against Nebraska, but has lost seven games in a row since then. What's their plan for trying to stop the Buckeyes?

The Buckeyes got a really good test from a high quality opponent on Saturday, which they ultimately passed with a 44-31 win. But how did the game leave you feeling? Are you more or less confident in their ability to win the league and eventually win a national title? What did we learn from this game? Plus, C.J.

Brendan Gulick and Andrew Lind provide instant analysis from Happy Valley following the Ohio State Buckeyes' resilient 44-31 win over the Penn State Nittany Lions. In a game that had wild twists and turns, Ohio State survived an upset bid from Penn State this afternoon. A tight contest throughout, key contributions from Marvin Harrison Jr. (10 receptions, 185 yards) and J.T. Tuimoloau (6 tackles, 2 sacks, 3 tackles-for-loss, 2 interceptions, 1 forced fumble, 1 fumble recovery, 1 touchdown) paved the way for Ohio State to flip the script late in the game. TreVeyon Henderson took over as the Buckeyes' primary running back after Miyan Williams exited the game in the first half with an injury. He scored twice in the fourth quarter, including a 41-yard touchdown that gave Ohio State the lead, 23-21. The Buckeyes never relinquished that lead, and ended up opening the gap quickly with 2 touchdowns in 34 seconds and a game-clinching pick-six by Tuimoloau. ----- Subscribe to our YouTube channel for more coverage of the Buckeyes!

Ohio State is undefeated through 7 games this season (as many expected them to be), but their schedule hasn't proven to be as difficult as we thought coming into the season. Notre Dame, Wisconsin and Iowa have all achieved below expectations so far. Now, the Buckeyes head to Happy Valley to play a Penn State team that has certainly punched at their weight class - and perhaps even a bit above. Penn State is 6-1 with just a loss to Michigan on its schedule and they rebounded with a big win over Minnesota last week.

Brendan Gulick and Andrew Lind provide instant analysis from Columbus following the Ohio State Buckeyes' huge 54-10 win over the Iowa Hawkeyes. After struggling to find their rhythm in the first half, Ohio State's offense proved to be too much for the Iowa defense as the game progressed and the Buckeyes once again coasted to victory.  C.J. Stroud turned it on in the third quarter, finishing the game 20-30 with 286 passing yards, 3 passing touchdowns and an interception. Marvin Harrison Jr. (7 receptions, 62 yards, 1 touchdown), Emeka Egbuka (6 rec, 80 yards, 1 touchdown), and Julian Fleming (79-yard touchdown reception in fourth quarter) all contributed in the victory. Jaxon Smith-Njigba started the game but left early in the first half after he looked to aggravate his hamstring injury.  The Buckeye defense was stellar, only allowing 158 total yards and forcing 6 turnovers (most by a Buckeye defense since 2016 vs. Tulsa.) They added a touchdown to the scoreboard as well, as Tommy Eichenberg found pay dirt on a 13-yard interception return in the second quarter. Tanner McCalister added two interceptions of his own, and Zach Harrison's presence off the edge was felt all game long. Ohio State will face Penn State next Saturday, October 29, at 12 p.m. ET. ----- Subscribe to our YouTube channel for more coverage of the Buckeyes!

Ohio State absolutely annihilated Michigan State on Saturday afternoon up in East Lansing, 49-20.

Brendan Gulick and Andrew Lind provide instant analysis following the Buckeyes' dominant performance against the Spartans in East Lansing. C.J. Stroud continued to bolster his Heisman campaign, finishing the day 21-26 for 361 yards and 6 touchdown passes. His connections with Marvin Harrison Jr. (7 receptions, 131 yards, 3 touchdowns) and Emeka Egbuka (5 receptions, 143 yards, 1 touchdown) resulted in multiple highlight-reel plays in the victory. The Buckeye defense was able to lock down the Spartans' offense for the vast majority of the game, as Ohio State out-gained Michigan State 614-202 and held the Spartans to 7 yards rushing. ----- Subscribe to our YouTube channel for more coverage of the Buckeyes!

Ohio State's Week 6 opponent is one that traditionally has a great program, but their 2022 season hasn't gone very well.
