When Thibodeaux didn't play in Columbus I thought we had the game in hand - they showed us differently - gotta play inspired for 60 minutes regardless of who we're lining up against.
Always try to look for the positive ........... in the midst of a crisis !!
Stroud in that game was not the same player he was at the end of his career here. Just to be clear, Kerry Coombs was the problem that game, not Stroud. I was at that game and it was one of the loudest I’ve heard the shoe.
It definitely wasn't the offenses fault OSU lost that game. Don't know what the impact was of Thibodeaux not being out there but it's hard to win a game when your defense can't stop the other team from running the same play over and over. Funny, it reminds me of the 2014 NCG against Oregon where OSU keep running that one running play with the TE wham block and Oregon had no answer.
I'm beyond tired of seeing people compare this to 2021. That was then this is now. Not the same teams, season, situation, barely the same coaches. Please stop bringing up Thibodeaux. If Burch is out it's a big loss that THIS TEAM THIS YEAR can take advantage of.
Need I mention it's not the same team, season, coaches, etc. If he's out it's a big loss. And Thibodeaux being out isn't the reason we didn't win that game.
We didn’t lose that game because Thibodeaux was out (although that may have given people a sense of false security), but, it’s just an example that a star player being out may not make a difference in the ultimate result.
I kind of doubt he plays. Could really kill his draft stock as NFL scouts use these type of games as a barometer. If he goes out there and struggles he’s going to lose himself a bunch of money
I agree that it’s unlikely he plays, but I think it’s more about the remainder of the season. The 12 team playoff allows teams to lose a couple of games and still make the playoffs. A loss to Ohio State is a “good loss” and you can save your best player for later in the season. Not saying Ohio State wins just because he sits out.
There is no "I" in team, which means one man ain't gonna win or lose that game for them, be prepared and remain focused, beat their fucking asses while doing so!

Play like he’s out there regardless and worry about it later.
This.

Cheerish every single day
The loss in 2021 was because of Ohio State’s defense…

We had one of the best college level QB arms I’ve ever seen and the defense a liability.

Got to win the trenches....same old, same old until they finally change the game to bubble ball.
Just steam roll whoever is in our way!!!!
This sucks. He was having a breakout season. Hope it’s minor

Rat poison. Need I mention Kayvon Thibodeaux.
Having him not play is better for OSU. No rat poison about it. Unless OSU thinks somehow they have the game won now, which I doubt.

The league doesn't take injury into account? What about wanting to see guys tough it out? The player knows if it's injury or hurt.

it’s more likely that he doesn’t want to have bad tape by not doing anything tonight if he was playing.
Round on the ends and "HI" in the middle. O-HI-O.
I seriously doubt the NFL has even crossed this kids mind. He isn’t missing this one unless he is physically unable to play.
The NFL crosses their minds before they are even out of high school.

Want them at their best, but will take them at less than that.
To give anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift.
That's a grown ass man as Urban would say...
But what would Vince Marrow say?

I wish the young man well but fate has a mind of it's own.
Sounds like an ankle injury.
It isn’t like we haven’t had guys out all year long.
According to Yahoo Sports, it's a knee.
My favorite team? Whoever is playing TTUN.
That doesn’t sound good at all.
He will play. He ain’t missing this game

Kerry koombs is the reason we lost in 2021.

Ughh. Still mind blowing that we wasted a talent like CJ Stroud because we couldn't field a defense.
I can hear the excuses building for what’s gonna happen tonight
