Outside of the Shoe, toughest environment the program has seen last 10, 12 years. And it's opening day. With a bunch of new players. And a QB who has looked terrible. It'll be 95 degrees and they will be deeper.

Getting blown out by 40+ points just isn't the correct call here. Raise the optimism levels up a little.

If Poulos looked terrible, he wouldn't have been named QB1.

The only thing I'll give you is the 95 degrees part.

The team they will face won't be anything like the team we faced in "the Shoe."

Jackie O's will have it on.

It'll be a mixed crowd, but always a close 50/50.

Any locations in the Dayton area that usually host watch parties? Not just for Saturday but for the season in general?

Both.

During the WVU game last year OU was on inside, OSU was on outside on the projector.

A few other times, OSU might've been on downstairs, OU on upstairs.

They're not trying to cater to OSU by any stretch, but they will be democratic about the crowd. Majority of the bartenders went to OU. Most of them wear OU gear nearly every time I'm there. Hell, they've got a Hot Nut on the menu.

I hope they serve hot Buckeyes to Bucknuts as they are poisonous to humans and cause vomiting and paralysis.

Feeling an upset at Nebraska. Bet on Ohio and take the points !
95 degree heat will neutralize their talent & size advantage.

Arrived in Omaha—heat is oppressive. Should change kickoff to earlier time of 6am or postpone till December and real football weather.

Heat index will be over 100 today, and very little wind. With a noon game, only those under the west balcony will be in the shade. Anyone going to the game should be careful to stay hydrated. Go Bobcats.

Measuring stick game for the Bobcats. A chance for a lot of unproven guys to make their names known. I am most curious to see how our offensive line looks. Give Poulos some time in the pocket and get Brune/Rosa established. Use the TEs!

I feel good about our defense but this will be a huge test on the road. Force a fumble or INT and that would be huge.
What a day at the Convo.....Wow!

Yeah so both Grandview and Jackie o's will have only osu game sound. They can both choke on the proverbial bag of dicks
