#6 Ohio State (4-0, 1-0) at #9 Notre Dame (4-1) Postgame
« on: September 18, 2023, 07:34:26 AM »
Ohio State opens as 3.5 point favorites on the road. Kyle McCord and Marv finally got it going a little bit, they seem to be building some chemistry which is a good thing for Ohio State. Notre Dame is at home and a little more battle tested in terms of competition and experience at QB. Hartman is legit- I really think he's going to be a Heisman contender in NYC this year.

This one will be the game of the week. I think ND not only covers that but wins outright.

Both teams have a lot of talent but I think Notre Dame wins this game with the difference being the experience at QB.

not only is Hartman far more experienced but the game is at home at night for ND. That's a big advantage. McCord has never started a real road game (all due respect to IU), especially not one at night.

I had this circled as one of the possible 3-4 games tOSU could lose in '23. Feeling a little bit better after another game under the belt albeit vs an over matched opponent.  Denzel Burke is starting to look real good at corner. DBs collectively looking solid and good tackling bunch so far. RBs Henderson 6.4 ypc,Trayanum 7ypc,Williams 4.1 ypc have been money . WRs Egbuka 13.9 ypc,Harrison 21 ypc,TE Stover & FR. Carnell Tate both at 18.8 ypc  (3 apiece) but still.Tyleik Williams has emerged on the D-Line so far also has 2 sacks and been in on a bunch of tackles. We shall see as ND always seems to be good on the O-Line. I'll have to switch from Oktoberfests to coffee around 5-6 PM should be a good contest looking forward to it like Texas/Bama with the road team coming out on top 😎

Didn't know this was Hartman's 6th season - should have went to Georgia FFS

will be shocked if that happens. Ohio State was in a dog fight with them in Columbus last year- and that was with a much better QB and OL and Tyler Buchner at QB for Notre Dame. 

This one is at home for ND and at night. And well, Sam Hartman is most definitely not Tyler Buchner.

Georgia 20-19 Notre Dame (Sep 9, 2017) Final Score - ESPN

The Dawgs were started a freshman QB as well and prevailed, barely.

I see OSU getting their wake up call on Saturday, and find out that they are not that good.

Hmm could be right but WTH - ND lost to the Thundering Herd last seaon and to a very bad Stanford Team so there's a chance

Kyle McCord is not a freshman. He's a 21-year old RS Sophomore who was the backup QB last year and has been in that system for 3 years. Jake Fromm for UGA was an actual 18-year old straight outta HS true freshman that year in 2017. Way different scenario and super impressive that he actually pulled off the win.

it'll be a close game. Ohio State very well might win- it's a pick 'em game. Toss-up. If Ohio State wins- they deserve to be ranked in the top 3 imo. That'll have been the best win on the season for anyone. If they lose- well Ohio State is still a really good team. They just would have lost to another really good team on the road at night. Those are not easy games to win. Just ask Tennessee. 

I just think ND is a lot better than anyone was giving them credit for pre-season. They have a really solid defense, a really good OL highlighted by the best LT in the country (sorry Olu Fashanu- you're overrated son), and Sam Hartman was probably the most important transfer portal player any team got this off-season. He's changed life for that team similar to KWIII for MSU in '21. Hartman just really really freaking good imo. Guy is a DUDE at QB. Something ND hasn't had in looooong ass time.

I think both teams are very good.  Ohio State is a "no duh" candidate for that description, but I think this is a ND team that's not just the usual hype, but rather has substance.  Should be a really great game to watch

agreed. both teams are very good. Hartman has taken ND to the next level. They were a top 15-20ish team last year without him. He's elevated them up into a real playoff contender this year.
