they do have a loaded team, but winning 3-4 titles over 5 years is easier said than done, regardless of coaching and talent.

Exactly

And there are no guarantees, but how long does it take Michigan to get back to be a formidable challenge for OSU?

OSU is in position to win 3 or 4 titles over the next 5 years. They are loaded with perhaps the best game day coaching staff in football. They will be a dynasty that may surpass what BAMA did 2009-2012.

Since you seem to be lauding their greatness, why not put the correct logo on your profile?

Re: Ohio State: Next Season's FSU w/o the Drama

tOSU's scholarship sanctions from the 2012 tattoo debacle were up yesterday. So that's 5 more per year they get.

well Meyer hasnt exactly blown them out or dominated a game with them. 2 years ago Hoke went for the win instead of the tie and Osu won by 1, but all three games have been close. I think Meyer might take Harbaugh more seriously, but I still think the last 2 weeks in the season against the teams of Michigan will be their biggest hurdles.

Why? BAMA did. Granted OSU and BAMA are the 2 big dogs now. I can see both teams in the running for the next few years. Don't get me wrong. I want OSU to win their conference and get thumped in the playoffs.

Re: Ohio State: Next Season's FSU w/o the Drama

judging by the comment section, some Ohio State fans are approaching into LSU arrogance territory.

I hope and believe we will... Just wouldn't be shocked if they pull off a mini dynasty...

yes, we did. and we will see if osu does.

Re: Ohio State: Next Season's FSU w/o the Drama

I can honestly say I never hated FSU and came away with some respect for them after interacting with their fanbase. tOSU is a different story. Yeah there is some sour grapes in losing to them, but overall I came away with the impression they're a bunch of classless punks, from their fans, to the players all the way up the ladder to the head coach, and I'll be actively rooting for their downfall. Punks like Joey Bosa with his cheap shots on the QB and then his twitter banter after the game shows what kind of character he, and by extension that entire team, has: None. Winston has more class than that guy. In my opinion they are far worse than FSU and I hope to see Dantonio and Harbaugh (in the very near future) chase their thug head coach and the rest of the dirty tOSU establishment clear out of that conference. What comes around will go around. I predict they'll be hated with far more intensity than FSU ever was.

There is talk Cardale Jones may jump to the NFL. If Braxton Miller jumps also that would be fun. If I were Cardale I would leave one way or another. The guy has a big time arm. Some are saying he probably should have been starting from day one. It would be funny if all three came back and they make him 3rd string again. That would kill his shot at the NFL. He should leave while the iron is hot. Seeing he is projected as a first round pick now. Some are saying they would take him before JW and MM.

Wel what we do know is that Ohio State does return a QB though. [emoji6]

Yes! Classes are pointless! That's the reason that players have gotten RICH on pro contracts only to be BANKRUPT afterwards and living on skid row!

Osu have some of the worst fans, anywhere. No class. Don't know how to win or lose with class. It's why I enjoy seeing them fail.

I don't see the love fest for Urb. If he is sooo good, then why was his best QB the 3rd string??? He lucked out.

Ezekiel is a legit RB though.

I agree with this and came away with the same impression. I haven't encountered any fanbases that have anything good to say about them. There will be no love lost when they encounter their day of reckoning. Hope it's next season.
