This twitter thread is a great example of how tOSU kept Clemson out of sync. Day & Co found a weak spot in how Venables call plays and exposed it.

I had noticed something was up. Mentioned it to my dad that Ohio State was running up, getting set, and getting the play going while Clemson ran around.

That guy articulates it well.

Makes it a lot harder to steal play calls and adjust when they're calling it in the huddle and snapping it fast, that's for sure.

I was begging Tommy to go hurry up during the 2nd Clemson game.

I guess Kelly and staff missed this.

I’m not 100%, but pretty confident ND huddled in game 1 at least. They were running plays in with the tight ends I believe.

Not sure why more teams that use ball control to win don’t use the “quick huddle” offense. Gives the benefits of speed tempo, with the ability to play at your own pace.

Rumors that OSU will be without Tyreke Smith and Tommy Togiai for the championship game. Covid related. Also heard that contract tracing will likely not be taken as seriously as it was during the season due to this being the last game of the year.

I think we already saw that with Clemson prior to the Clemson-OSU game.

There's no way Clemson's OC tested positive and had ZERO close contacts at some point during game prep.

He probably ate lunch across a desk from Dabo, sat with all his RB's during film study, etc.

Not how OSU is spinning it, but it sounds like their massage therapist/prostitute on retainer got ratted out and is now banned from the school.

I'd love for an NCAA investigation
"She had been using the massages as a "means to initiate sexual interactions with some of the football student athletes, and then demanding payment," according to the investigation report."

Yeah, I'm sure that's how it went down...

https://www.elevenwarriors.com/ohio...start-ohio-prep-school-similar-to-img-academy

The state of Ohio currently has nothing like IMG Academy – a prep school in Bradenton, Florida that serves as a boarding school and athletic training center for elite high school athletes.

Braxton Miller and Troy Smith reportedly want to change that.

The former Buckeye quarterbacks are part of a group interested in purchasing the former Urbana University campus with the goal of transforming it into a prep academy that Miller likens to IMG Academy, Marcus Hartman of the Springfield News-Sun reports.

The school would be called Urbana Prep and Sports Institute.

Between this and Quinn Ewers enrolling a year early and nuking their QB depth chart, it's been a weird day for Buckeye Fan recruiting.

I've got a feeling thats going to be an unhappy QB room and a big challenge for Day.

Dunno if anyone else saw, but apparently one of tOSU's LBs left the game in a tizzy today and is no longer on the team. He's also the 2nd LB to quit this week, apparently upperclassmen are getting passed over for playing time and they don't like it.

I understand. After all, they don't come to play school.

Not sure what’s going on, but OSU fans are about as fed up with their LBs coach as Irish fans are with Quinn.

I don't think the Kerry Coombs experiment went very well. He's better suited as a cornerbacks coach/cheerleader than as a defensive coordinator and was recently stripped of his play calling duties.
