Beating Michigan since 1919.
Look, we all know Saturday night didn’t go the way we wanted to, but sometimes you have to give credit where credit is due. Indiana is really good, and Curt Cignetti is on an absolute heater. Who would have thought we would have said that Ohio State left the door open for Indiana in the […]

Ohio State’s last Heisman winner was Troy Smith, who won the trophy following the 2006 season, and it will almost certainly remain that way this year. That 19-year drought has been one of the few blemishes on an otherwise elite program resume, and it is now stretching into a new era as the 2025 race […]
I was high above Lucas Oil Stadium on Saturday night in the pressbox for the Hoosiers’ heavyweight 13-10 win over Ohio State in the Big Ten Championship Game. When I woke up on Sunday morning, I was disappointed, but I also realized that our beloved Buckeyes got beaten by the better team on the night, […]
Last week, No. 23 Ohio State women’s basketball (7-1, 1-0) dispatched the Niagara Purple Eagles with a 98-point rout. On Sunday, it was a different story with the first Big Ten game of the season, and it began against the Northwestern Wildcats (6-3, 0-1). After Ohio State went down six points after one quarter, 22 […]
The College Football Playoff field was revealed on Sunday afternoon. While there were a couple surprises when it comes to who made it and who didn’t, Ohio State’s road to back-to-back titles went about as expected after the Buckeyes lost to Indiana 13-10 on Saturday night in the Big Ten Championship Game. So what stands […]
In a slow, gritty, defensive battle, Ohio State fell to Indiana 13-10. Ohio State’s defense was nearly flawless and held Indiana to its lowest point output of the season. Ohio State’s offense… forgot to show up. Here are five things to know about the Buckeyes’ 13-10 loss in the Big Ten Championship Game. 1. Quarterbacks […]
Opening Odds: Texas A&M -4.5 vs. Miami | O/U 51.5National Title Odds: Ohio State +250 | Indiana +260 | Georgia +550 | Texas Tech/Oregon +850 The College Football Playoff field is set, and Ohio State is the No. 2 seed following a loss in the Big Ten Championship Game to now-No. 1 Indiana.

After rattling off 16 consecutive victories dating back to last season, including a national title and seven wins over ranked opponents, Ohio State has finally lost a football game. The Buckeyes dropped a 13-10 contest to the Indiana Hoosiers on Saturday in Indianapolis, as Curt Cignetti led his program to its first outright Big Ten […]
So there’s good news and bad news, Buckeye fans. The bad news is, of course, Saturday’s game against Indiana didn’t go our way. Though you do have to hand it to Curt Cignetti and the Hoosiers for their historic season, no one likes losing, especially in games that come with some clout or bragging rights […]
There are plenty of things for Ohio State fans to be frustrated with in how Saturday night’s Big Ten Championship Game went. You can be frustrated by the offensive play calling (and I am), you can be disappointed in how the right side of the offensive line played (and I am), you can be surprised […]
On Wednesday, Nov. 26, No. 23 Ohio State women’s basketball defeated the then No. 21 ranked West Virginia Mountaineers. Due to late trips to the foul line for both teams and referee reviews, the game went 30 minutes longer than expected. That forced a Home Alone-esque Buckeye rush out of the Baha Mar resort to […]

Brian Hartline’s decision to leave Ohio State and take the head coaching job at South Florida marks a significant turning point for Ryan Day and the Buckeyes’ offense. Hartline was not only an elite recruiter but also a stabilizing presence in the program who helped maintain continuity through multiple coordinator changes before him. Now, with […]
The Ohio State Buckeyes (7-1, 1-0) played its first game in eight days as they traveled to Evanston, Illinois for a matchup against the Northwestern Wildcats (5-4, 0-2), securing an 86-82 win to open up conference play. The Wildcats were led into this one by Nick Martinelli, who entered the contest averaging 19.8 points and […]
Everybody knows that one of the best parts of being a sports fan is debating and dissecting the most (and least) important questions in the sporting world with your friends. So, we’re bringing that to the pages of LGHL with our favorite head-to-head column: You’re Nuts. In You’re Nuts, two LGHL staff members will take […]
There is no denying that the No. 2 Indiana Hoosiers are an impressive offensive team. They have the No. 2 scoring offense in the country (44.3 points per game), the No. 5 total offense (483.8 yards per game), and the No. 9 rushing offense (229.75 ypg). Quarterback Fernando Mendoza is a legit Heisman Trophy contender, […]

Being the Buckeye beat’s black sheep blog, we here at Land-Grant Holy Land like to pat ourselves on the back. So, throughout the season, members of our staff will be making predictions about that day’s game. They will go on the record with what they think the final score will be, who the game’s MVP […]
Wake up, everyone. It’s Ohio State game day! It seemed like we had been leading up to this game all season long, but the moment has arrived for No. 1 Ohio State to take on No. 2 Indiana in the Big Ten Championship game in Indianapolis. The biggest test for either team thus far, both […]

The regular season is behind us, and it is now time for the defending national champion Ohio State Buckeyes to start the postseason. But, before they can get to the College Football Playoff, they will first play for their first Big Ten title since 2020. On Saturday, Dec. 6 at 8 p.m. ET, the Buckeyes […]
This year at LGHL, the day before Ohio State games we are trying something a little different. “3 & Out” is going to inform you on the upcoming opponent for the Buckeyes. By the name, you probably could tell we are going to handle things in threes. Along with highlighting three key players from Ohio […]
It feels normal to have Ohio State playing for a Big Ten Championship. After all, the Buckeyes, with 39 Big Ten Championships and five wins in the Big Ten Championship Game, are the big bad wolf in the conference. Indiana, on the other hand, is the David in this matchup. They haven’t won a Big […]
After mostly playing teams that were far below them in talent level to begin the season (other than Notre Dame, of course), Ohio State went on the road for the first time this year and laid an egg at Pitt last Friday. The Buckeyes gave up 16 offensive rebounds, took 15 fewer shots than Pitt, […]
