I’m going to be honest with you, the first seven weeks of the Ohio State football season went even better than I could have anticipated (and I predicted them to go 16-0 and repeat as national champions). But with two off weeks worked into the season, it allows Ryan Day and his staff to be […]

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! This is a game that had been circled on the calendar for both fanbases before the season began. Ohio State, the defending national champions, playing host to Penn State, a preseason national championship favorite who stole the Buckeyes’ defensive coordinator during the offseason. It had all the […]

After the final week off of the regular season, the No. 1 Ohio State Buckeyes will be back on the field on Saturday, Nov. 1, as the reeling Penn State Nittany Lions come to town looking to find some meaning in their season, having lost four straight games and firing their coach, James Franklin.

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 […]
Four times in the last eight seasons, Ohio State and Penn State have played with both teams ranked in the top 10 of the AP Poll. This season, that will not be the case. It was widely believed it would be at the start of the season, but four straight losses for the Nittany Lions […]

Much of the talk this week has surrounded Ohio State’s visitor list for Saturday’s game against Penn State, but the Buckeyes are also finding time to offer new names. Thursday saw the latest prospect share the good news, as Ohio State’s newest offer was dished out to Deven Robertson. The Mississippi native is the prototypical […]
At the end of each regular season, the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame picks a winner from all Division I women’s basketball players. Thursday, the group named its 50-player watchlist for the 2025-26 season, and the name of Ohio State women’s basketball point guard Jaloni Cambridge earned a place on the list. Cambridge joined the […]
Ohio State women’s basketball forward Ella Hobbs missed her first year of college basketball due to an ACL injury. It was not on a key rebound inside the paint or using her physicality to get through defenders under the basket. No, it was none of those situations expected of a 6-foot-4 forward. “In high school, […]
Last week ATS: 7-8 (4-4 National, 3-4 B1G) Season ATS: 81-77 (33-40 National, 48-37 B1G) So far this year it has felt like we’ll have one big weekend a month and the rest of the time we are either a game above or below .500. It’s hard to get mad about since our season record […]
It has often been said that there is no recession-proof program in college football, quite like Ohio State. The Buckeyes have been ranked in the AP Poll more than any team in the sport, and only Alabama has spent more weeks at No. 1. So, to celebrate the program’s indestructibility, the National Bobblehead Hall of […]
Coming into the season, this weekend’s matchup was circled as one of the marquee showdowns on the college football calendar. While things have gone a bit sideways in Happy Valley and the game might not carry the same top-ten billing it once promised, Ohio State isn’t taking Penn State lightly. From the coaching staff to […]
The No. 1 Ohio State Buckeyes (7-0, 4-0) are back in Columbus this week after a bye week last week to take on the reeling Penn State Nittany Lions (3-4, 0-4). A game that some people thought could be a top-three matchup, Penn State has had a disastrous season that has seen its head coach […]
Ohio State’s defensive identity this season starts at the edges of the defense. The Buckeyes’ corner room has quietly become one of the deepest, most reliable units in the country. A blend of veteran leadership, tested transfers and high-upside youth that has allowed Matt Patricia’s front seven to operate with fearless aggression. Jermaine Mathews Jr. […]

The rhythm of Ohio State’s offense this fall has felt less like chaos and more like composition — a carefully layered, perfectly timed symphony with Julian Sayin as its conductor. At just 20 years old, Sayin has turned what could have been a volatile quarterback transition into the most seamless offensive identity the Buckeyes have […]
