Good point. Early in the season, which team has the most adjusting to do, timing issues, conditioning problems, guys at new positions. I mean, we nearly lost to FSU. We were ill prepared for that game. We can’t afford a start like that. Who is rocking and rolling, jiving as a unit, and firing on all cylinders without as much rust on Sept 3 will win. This is likely the best time to play then, assuming we are ready.
Will also have a shit ton more talent though haha
Someone needs to help out and give a left to right list of who is pictured here. I know a few, but most I have no clue who they are
I suspect that MF has been quietly working with AG & TR on game plans for a while now. OSU won't know what to expect facing a different DC. I like our chances.Holy cow, the way the 23' recruiting season is shaping up to be a back and forth with the Buckeyes, it would be epic to get a W to kick of the 22' season. I expect we'd be underdogs, but maybe Freeman, Rees, Washington etc hype and energy can lead us to a victory!
Not to mention I have a neighbor two doors down here in Colorado who is a obnoxious Buckeye fan. I wouldn't mind laughing in his face Sept 4th
Single tickets are starting out at $225. A pair of tickets will run you more like $285 each. That's before fees and such.

It’s not arrogance. It’s a properly placed sense of superiority.
Training camp starts today across the NFL, our boys report to camp next Friday....it's here.
I could get on board with this. Hard to imagine 2 more different qbs than Bucnher and Coan. They should be guessing at what our offense will look like.
It’s arrogance, lol. As OSU grad who is a lifelong ND fan, I can say that I’m proud that ND is populated with (mostly) real student athletes. That said, the difference in academic bona fides of the schools is pretty overplayed — OSU is elite as public universities go. The primary difference is that OSU has to take 5x more students every year, that makes it tough to take only the cream of the crop. But, this isn’t a ND v. WVU type situation - no offense to the Mountaineers. It a good matchup of academic cultures.
There is a wide margin between someone that gets into Ohio State and Notre Dame. Notre Dames stats for the average undergrad is 4.03 GPA and 33-35 ACT. That is the same or slightly higher than Harvard. Notre Dame might be the most selective university in the nation as they are small and also want soft factors to match sterling academics. I get that you’re wanting to prop up your alma matter, but it ain’t even close. It pains me to say it, but Michigan is a more academic school and far greater research university than Ohio State. Unless you’re talking admissions for athletes, in which case it’s not really that different at ND vs OSU (hence the reason we recruit the same kids).
I’ve identified characteristics that make the schools different — they’re illustrative, not dispositive. You’re reading in a contradiction that doesn’t exist. Nothing you’ve added seems to indicate a contradiction, either. The top of each incoming class is likely qualitatively similar, but as OSUs prerogative is to educate a greater number, they throw a wider net and admit students that ND likely wouldn’t — good on both schools. My point is that both are excellent schools, but the fact that Notre Dame is considered better is an overplayed hand. This wasn’t an attack on ND, so there’s really no need to defend, but to the extent you did, it seems needlessly argumentative.
