National Champs? Possible.

I'm not sure we can top the expectations of last season and expect to be Champions but with Urban Meyer at the helm it's hard not to. JT will be back at QB and we have some ??? on defense and at RB. Who do you expect to become the next "stars" at Ohio State?

Playing Oklahoma, at Oklahoma this year will be very interesting.

The fact that we are replacing 19 starters is gonna be interesting. If OSU makes the playoffs, this could be Urban's best coaching job....including Last season (2014).

I believe we will beat Oklahoma and go undefeated.

Love that this will be a hungry team with a lot of new guys looking to make their mark. It will also be great that they have established leaders on both sides in Raekwon and JT. With the schedule being so tough I think even with one loss and a B1G Championship they'll be in the playoff. That's a lot to expect but with Urban the sky is the limit.

Also, I'm damn glad they got the play calling situation figured out. That gives me as much confidence as anything going into next year.

I'm holding out to see what they do next year. I'll believe they have the play calling sorted out when I see it.

Great game to have on the schedule. Will be a nice barometer for the team, and if we would lose, it would have very little impact as far as making the CFP.

I think this time next year, most of America will know who Sam Hubbard and Mike Weber are. Noah Brown will be our #1 receiver.

Meyer hired a new o-line coach, Greg Studrawa. Warinner will move to TE coach and stay in press box to call plays.

COnsidering about half of it will go towards free apparel for the players, I don't think any of them are mad. If they are mad, they are welcome to not play.

It's great when Urbie puts a couple of walk ons on scholarship. I'm sure Saban just pays em all out of his SEC sanctioned slush fund.

Am I the only one the least bit concerned that teams like Alabama and LSU have as many as 6-10 underclassman that are not only draft eligible, but are talented enough to be drafted, every year, but only a few actually enter the draft? I keep telling myself that it's a testament to the talent that we had 9 players declare (which it is), but I can't help but think that the atmosphere of the locker room this past season gave these guys a nudge. Hope this doesn't become a pattern.

Buckeyes land Keandre Jones 4* LB that was committed to Maryland. Lets hope another Maryland commit flips soon.

Sounds like today could be a big day recruiting wise...could land 2-3 4* guys. Binjimen Victor, Dwayne Haskins, and an official flip from Keandre Jones.
