Ohio State absolutely dominating this draft

It's amazing to think they couldn't beat Michigan State with all this talent...couldn't beat Michigan State without Connor Cook! The playoff may have looked a lot different if they hadn't dropped that one.

Every player they had drafted was on the team Clemson

humiliated. Don't see how teams can't see that they're so over rated. Expect a lot of flops...

And they won the whole thing too. Players improve. Ohio State was the most talented team this year bar none and played below their talent until after Michigan State game.

We were certainly the better team when we played them in the Orange Bowl, but as Wallace said, players get better. They improved and went on to win the national championship the year after that, and it wasn't due to luck. They were/are a very talented team, and Meyer just got 2 days worth of the best advertising possible when it comes to recruiting.

Yea, that was sort of the gist of my original post. They had all these insanely talented guys on their roster but apparently weren't very interested in the team-side of things after winning the natty the season before last.

They won it all with these same players. Just goes to show that if you do not play as a team, you get beat no matter the talent that you have. After they won it, they became individuals and not a team.

and Clemson dominated most of these same players in the Orange Bowl just a few years ago.....10 drafted players in 1st 3 rounds = at least 5 or 6 wasted draft picks by these NFL teams.... these buckaroos are very over-rated......Go Tigers!!!!!

Yea, we had a great win over them....and then they won the national championship the following year. I'm all for reminding the Buckeyes that we beat them in the Orange Bowl, but also think we should give credit where it's due. They were an incredibly talented squad the past 2-3 years.

So because Clemson beat them that means their players are way overrated? Maybe two really good teams played and the better team won that night in the orange bowl. It's not like we blew them out, it took a last minute int to win.

Our offense will put a lot of guys into the draft next year

It's going to be fun seeing who all goes early. QB, RB, TE, OL, WR's and that's not counting defensive games. It will be a record draft as far as top guys ever.

Yea absolutely. I fully expect Deshaun & Mike Williams to go first round next year, with Tank perhaps being right near the cutoff, along with Carlos Watkins. That's all without mentioning Jordan Leggett, who looks like he's ready to challenge Dwayne Allen as the best Clemson TE in recent history.
Wow, I can't wait to see this offense in action this fall.

Coach Meyer mis-calculated on the handling of his QB situation and it hurt the chemistry of that team. Once they woke up after the Sparty loss they played like the team that dominated this draft.
