Been hearing it from multiple sports personalities who are in utter shock at the dominance of Ohio St during the playoffs. They think Ohio St is playing with a level of violence and speed college teams never play with.
I think the team finally realized that they are basically an nfl roster and decided to start taking things serious. I mean remember 2 helmets from Nico were cracked, name one other time you saw a college team crack the helmet of a defender? And dont give me the cold weather made the helmet brittle, then why were our helmets also not cracked?
You could see it on Lannings face last night, he knew what he was seeing. Not even that vaunted 2021 Georgia defense was playing as fast or as violent as we are right now.
Look at the hits Ranson was laying on Oregon receivers and running backs, I mean Oregons best running back basically quit the game. Its not about "getting up" for a big game, its just keep the intensity where it has been the last 2 games.
