# | Eleven Warriors is just as delusional today as it ever was. wow... so much of this entire thread has me itching to pull out the Squirrel Summary Report. But then I read more and it comes back from the snippy comments and into respect land again, then back again, then back the other way...
in the end, it's pretty much a standard shit talking thread between two fan bases. I think the OSU fans here, including BeerPooBah who got downvotes, are all being highly respectable. I do question BeerPooBah's line of reasoning when making a point. Specifically calling out our record or losing to wake, because nothing matters but the night you play each other. We can't take a transitive National Championship anymore than they can take a transitive win because we lost so spectacularly bad against Wake. None of that matters. It doesn't matter if anOSU was a better team later in the season. Doesn't matter they opened several cans of whoop ass on tier 1 talent. Doesn't matter who we lost to either, or who we won. This is football. We win or lose on a single night. We won, they lost. That simple.
IMO historical debates on what happened last season are baseless now. Let's talk realities of what's gonna happen on Sept 7. I'm not sure if the new OC for the Bucks has ever faced Bud before, but Foster typically is extremely difficult to manage for any first timer. I think this is going to be key, because it will be a game of adjustments. On offense we just need to move the ball and capitalize on the gifts our defense gives us. IF we can do that it's going to be a close game. Sprinkle some dork magic so pussy touchdowns are not denied and we pull out another win.
As stated before me, classes at VT start on Aug. 24th. So the student base will most certainly be around.
I can also say, with MUCH confidence, that EVERYONE is hungry for tickets to this game (seeing students post on various social media all the time asking for/where to get tickets.) If you have em you're practically a celebrity around here. The whole fan base is pumped for this game.
Yeah I've seen that already. Impressed.. yes.. Scared.. not at all.
That post from Eleven Warriors reeks of overconfidence and entitlement...which plays right into our hands. NO ONE said we had a chance to beat AN Ohio State University last year. We did. Beamer seems to do his best when we are the underdogs who have 0 chance to win. Am I saying we are guaranteed to win?? Absolutely not! Neither team is. But I give us MUCH higher chances than those guys at Eleven Warriors do.
Ultimately, I think our hunger, dissatisfaction, having the world against us, and experience under everyone's belts is giving us an edge. Of course Urban Meyer will have his guys prepared, but I trust Beamer and Co. to have their bunch ready as well. He isn't the winningest active coach right now for nothing. Not to mention the fact that we have the best home crowd in the nation!!
SUPER pumped about this game...Labor Day can't get here soon enough.
Hey, if we're going 7-1 anyway, might as well win all 8...
A lot of the magical conversions, save the two first quarter drives, did not end in points and didn't have a huge effect on the outcome of the game other than momentum.
Now you go too far. Momentum in that game was everything. Plus, if your offense is on the field, your defense is getting rested enough to do their jobs. Don't underestimate the effect of those third down conversions, even if they don't result in points.
You're right, VT isn't going to necessarily have an easy time scoring, but the VT offense was working pretty well in last year's anOSU game.
Remember though, you guys never had a lead on us.
That's the most surprising stat to me, to this day.
Also took some slot reps in the first half
Classes start August 24th. And even if students sell their tickets (which I doubt more than a statistically insignificant number would), you have to have a VT ID to use them. Y'all should still have a metric fuckton of people there regardless.
HEY! The 49ers may or may not actually have a full roster at this point, but darn it all if they aren't going to the Super Bowl!!
It looks like he has GT beating both FSU and Clemson. That's pretty bold.
Yep, I lived in Ohio for 7 plus years and Cbus for 4 plus, I went to several Buckeyes games including a spring game. AnOSU is a huge school in a Big metro area where almost anyone in the state can get to the stadium in less than 3 hours. That's not the case for VT.
I'm an 11W faithful, but you guy's supreme confidence does make me nervous. Lane seems like it is going to be absolutely insane, and you have a lot of starters returning. That being said, I think Ohio State wins this game. I know defense is your thing, but our offense just has so many weapons. Losing Bosa sucks, but I have full confidence in either Sam Hubbard or Jalyn Holmes filling in for him. Obviously they're not going to dominate like he can, but I think they will fill the role excellently. I think you guys have a legit shot to win the ACC, and maybe even make the playoffs if you keep it to 1 loss.
Thank you. Could you help me out with something? I saw a post somewhere postulating that OSU might get a respectable number to Lane Stadium partially because classes had not yet started and students would be selling their tickets in fairly large numbers. Is that true about the start date for classes, or is that just internet hot air? Thanks in advance.
P.S. Thanks for the "leg" - just figured those out today!

Can't wait!
We drew 99,931 for our spring game intra-squad scrimmage this year. So we're used to big numbers. But as I said, it's not going to happen against VT.
With a healthy Dadi, Maddy, Fuller, Facyson the dream of going all the way can finally come true.
Been playing safety and slot/nickel corner in camp. Was playing a deep safety role (cover-1, etc.) tonight from what I saw.
With an ACC or National Championship, the Heisman could be the icing on the cake.
There are no words...
What position? I know they were working (or planning on) him at CB for a little in camp.
Still better than Vah-Tech
I think it's pretty safe to say that the 2015 version of the Techmo Bowl (VT vs. GT) will be the deciding game as to who wins the Coastal. There's also something about watching PJ and Bud work their strategy magic...it never gets old.
