So far, our defense remains intact. But for our offense, this is the start of the 2024 season. I hope Albin is rallying the squad big time because this bowl game still matters to me.

Let's get 10 wins!

What a day at the Convo.....Wow!

I know it won't happen because Albin is as vanilla as they come but I really hope they open up the offense under Navarro. Heck, throw in Winters or Wither as well and just launch. I hope Navarro does a ton of option because Kurtis did very little of that this year. Let Hendricks and Wiglusz shine. Hendricks needs to build confidence as our probable No. 1 next year and Wiglusz is owed a fantastic final game in a Bobcat uniform. I want to see Hunt in the flat and I want to see our tight ends eat because the two of them are amazing and were utilized, yet again, sporadically. I don't care if we win or lose this game. It does not mean anything to me other than getting to see some new dudes play. I actually feel freer with this game because it's house money. The only question is: Will Albin play like he has house money or will he go "run, run, incomplete pass, punt?"

Oh yeah, and I hope our defense clobbers them. I want to see one more game of Houston and Thompson knocking the other team into next week!

Rourke showed zero fire this year. He had moved on mentally before the season started.

Spot on, 1998. Except for a little tweek. I see it as incomplete pass, run up the middle for minimal gain, incomplete pass, punt.

A million percent.

FIVE-straight bowl wins on the line.

That would make lil ol' Ohio University tied for 3rd longest active streak in FBS.


Forget our offense is leaving. Forget the disappointment. Bowl time is here. It's not a throw away game. Bowls are important. Even if just from a national/regional reputation perspective. This is our payoff. 10 wins. ANOTHER Bowl W.

Does GS's roster appear to be fully intact from the regular season from what anyone has heard?

I guess the Eagles don't have any tape on who will be lining up in the Bobcats' backfield for this game? That can be helpful for a play or two, right? =)

Here's hoping the guys will play with their hair on fire and let it loose in this game.


I also hope that the Albin brain trust is scouring the portal for some help in the QB room for next year.

He might surprise us with a mid level QB. There are so many top QBs already in the portal as they pick landing spots the mid level QBs will bailout.
Keep a positive thought.

If Vandy takes Rourke, get one of their three QBs from the portal.

Maybe this former h.s. star -

One bright spot -- Navarro has the team's longest run from scrimmage this season, 62 yds. Now if the O line can do its job....

We will get by.
We will get by.
We will get by.
We will survive.

Four.

A long-snapper.
A DL who didn't play.
A 3rd string QB who didn't play.
A 4th string DB who mostly played ST, was 10th among DB's in tackles.

I'm disappointed that we won't be able to make this game due to prior travel plans. I can say, for anyone who hasn't been there, Coastal has an interesting campus. I was down there for the college basketball tourney Ohio was in several years ago. The campus was well-maintained, clean, and "new" looking. The gym was...something. It was literally like going to a basketball game in the Ping Center. One side of the facility was the student rec center, the other side the basketball court (with minimal bleacher seating). They had some cool little trolley/bus things you could use to get from parking to the "arena" while I was there. MB is a pretty easy drive from Athens.

Seems like Ohio football avoided this portal nonsense until this year. So the "Bobcat portals" can't play right? So how can Vegas place bets on the games when team personnel are such a variable ?

Ohio is tied for the 4th longest bowl winning streak behind Alabama(8), Minnestota(6), Troy(5). No MAC school has ever won 5 bowl games in a row so there is a chance to set a record. Marshall has the G5 record at 7 consecutive bowl wins.

What’s our plan to win this game? Fortunately defense and special teams seem to be in tact. But offensively it’s just Sam, Chase, and the tight ends as far as skill players. I wouldn’t be surprised to see us play more two tight ends sets any way. Probably what we should’ve been doing all along or at least after Jacoby got hurt. Kazmarek and Foster are probably some of the best players on the team if not the best TEs in the conference. Offense is going to have to rely on them to make plays!

Some of these are wish list items that I would've hoped for during the season. I would've liked to see Foster get more targets than he had during the year.

I'd expect lots of option runs by Navarro. I would guess that Navarro will lead the team in rushing yards for the game.

Look like all the guys in the portal have been removed from the roster.

We are going to run the ball on every play and only pass when needed.
