It's a Week 1 game, ND still has a surprising amount of players back. Yes, their QB is very inexperienced and yes Kyle Hamilton is gone, but they have a solid contingent of players back and that defense will be better than most we play this year. We will NOT be able to run at will on them and with our defense playing their first game in a new scheme, I'm not as optimistic about getting consistent stops and limiting big plays as I would be if this was a game played in October. If I had to bet, I'd take tOSU on the money line parlayed with ND with the points and over 59.5. On fanduel $10 will get you $33. MC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brownie man Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 I think we cover the spread. I’ll say 48- 27 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyPhil1781 Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 OT: Zelle needs to update the first post lol I'm just anxious to see this defense tonight. Good first test and we should be able to see a glimpse of what to expect. Just want to see some tenacity and bullying from them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NateDawg Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 Well ugly offense but defense was good and highly improved. That defense with last years offense and this is a title contender. We will see how it develops. Ryan Day needs to realize how you win some games though and how the air raid isn’t always the best strategy. Miyan Williams and Henderson need the ball more. Especially with Njigba hurt. Imagine he sits at least the next couple weeks since we play weak teams. Was interesting that Proctor seemingly has been supplanted in the secondary. All in all a mixed bag but good to get a win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure but this one is tough to judge for me because it’s week 1 and also I’m not sure how good UND is yet. The UGA-Clemson game was interesting to look back on last year though when it turned out UGA sneaked past a not so good team. I have a hunch OSU puts together their offense a bit better as the year goes but not totally sure Day figured out a balanced identity. Do hope JSN and Fleming get healthy. If I was a betting man though, Bama and UGA would both sit on our face right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candyman93 Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 At least we get a break the next 2 weeks before Wisconsin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candyman93 Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 Other than Ruggles miss, I thought special teams was fantastic as well 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mastercheddaar Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 Only team that can beat the #5 team by 2 scores and still drop a spot. Before you say Georgia beat #11, we came out and the passing game was cold. In the 2nd half we ran the ball down their throats and ate up the clock. What's next? We beat Ark St by 6 scores and drop to #4 for playing a nobody squad? MC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NateDawg Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 I don’t have a problem with UGA in the top 2. They won it all last season. And I don’t buy into preseason polls meaning much. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE DUKE Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 Polls mean jack squat this time of year. Just win and it'll sort itself out. No sense getting in a twist about it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobbyPhil1781 Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 (edited) Looks like Wiscy is a night game. Black-out too if I'm not mistaken. I feel a lot of big time recruits will be at the game as well, some commits and some not. We gained a lot of momentum after the ND games (got 3 CBs for 2024 guys literally the day after and apparently made us the favorite for a 5* DE this class) so we need to put on another show in this game to help the future of the program. Hope JSN and Fleming will be ready by then but Marvin is just an absolute force. Him, Embuka, and Co are good enough to win but not having one of the best WRs out there certainly doesn't help us. Wiscy is always a tough game so don't expect anything less. First need to get by a Rockets team that is lighting up the scoreboard though.
