Last year at the beginning of the season I thought VTech would be our toughest test.

I feel the same way this season. However, the fact we aren't playing Navy the game before makes me a lot less nervous.

Agreed. I also think that tOSU lost that game more than VT won it. Self inflicted errors exacerbated by youth played a huge factor-along with their QB looking like an All-American.

*Not to take anything away from VT, they played an amazing game and certainly forced their share of mistakes-but they came back to Earth shortly thereafter.

Last year as I left the stadium in Baltimore, I saw a guy with a VT jersey on. I said out loud, but only loud enough for my buddies to hear, "You're next"....all cocky as if we had just dominated Navy.

It was my fault, guys. No need to sweat it this year. I won't be saying anything.

Nope, it was my fault. I travelled back to Columbus with my son to the VT game. Should have known better, the last time I took him to a game was Ped State, 2008.

I guess it's my fault we wont the National Title then. I left the Virginia Tech game and walked the Olentangy Bike Trail all the way downtown, having a long conversation with my buddies about how 2014 was always going to be a rebuilding year when Braxton went down. You're welcome.

Take it for what it's worth...

EDIT: sorry the pic was ginormous, I obviously posted it from my phone which is a Nexus 6 (overcompensation say some, but this is the rumor mill anyway so...........)

It's tough to start naming guys and saying they're out for sure.

As the rumors swirl, there are accusations of missed classes and failed drug (pot) tests. Who is accused of which... and whether they are first or second offenses… there are a lot of unknowns.

VTs defense will be completely different this game... they rushed everyone because the line was new, the QB was new...
totally different scenario this year... and if the gang rush, the ball goes immediately to Braxton & Marshall... and the fireworks begin

Could just be Bud Foster playing games, but he already came out and said they'll do the same thing this year.
FWIW that bear front is how they played every spread team last year. He seems to have decided this is the way to limit damage from spread teams -- and it was at least successful on shutting down the running game (everyone averaged under 3ypc).
XBrax could be interesting in video game mode... but I suspect he'd also take a beating and potentially injured.
You beat it by throwing... so losing some WRs could hurt. Still, BC and Pitt beat these guys against the same bear front... I would hope Thomas + 2nd string receiving corps is better than that.

Looking forward to Dixon assuming he's 100%? Showed a lot of promise before he got hurt last year.
