  Speaker 1: Welcome to Buckeyes Tomorrow morning. For Wednesday, July ninth, I'm
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: your host, Tom Or the Texas game in fifty two days,
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: the game against Michigan in one hundred and forty three days.
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: If you're planning your next event, make it unforgettable with
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: Grateful Griddle, Columbus's favorite food truck serving up smashburger, scoremet sandwiches,
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: and good vibes booker catering today at gratefulgriddleh dot com.
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: Today's show, we're going to be talking about some of
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: the most unbreakable records on the offensive side of the
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: football for the Ohio State Buckeyes. We're just talking about
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: the Ohio State record book and individual records and team records.
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: There are some stuff in there that you go through
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: it and it's like, oh boy, I cannot foresee a
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: possible way that someone could break this record. And some
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: of those records it's got been set pretty recently. We're
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: going to be going through all those with my buddy
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: Kevin Noon of bucke huddle dot com. We'll just real
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: quickly run through the list that I put together and
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: then we'll be drafting the ones that we think are
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: the most unbreakable. Among that list, first one, most of
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: these are good records. The first one not so good.
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: Forty six career interceptions thrown by Archley. That's the first one.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: Pete Johnson running back in the nineteen seventies, Rji Griffin's fullback,
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: fifty six career touchdowns on the ground. That's a pretty
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: good one as well. Third one, we're just right now.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: We're just going in increasing order in terms of the number,
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: and we'll rank them later. So the third one is
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: seventy three that would be pass attempts by Dwayne Haskins
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: in a single game at Purdue in twenty eighteen. The
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: next one, this is the most recent, and also this
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: is sort of a trifecta. Seventy six receptions, three hundred
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: and fifteen yards, fifteen touchdowns, all as a true freshman
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: by Jeremiah Smith. So those are Ohio State true freshman
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: receiving records. Those three, any and all of them probably
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: belong on this list somewhere. Next up, one hundred and
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: twenty one. That is John Frank's career mark for receptions
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: by a tight end in a career. The next one,
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: one hundred and forty seven, that is j t. Barrett's
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: total career touchdowns responsible for rushing and passing together. Next
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: up to seventy one at two hundred and seventy one.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: That is rushing yards in a half by Trey Sermons
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: Northwestern in the twenty twenty Big Ten Championship game. Next
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: up another one you're probably gonna remember. Three hundred and
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: forty seven. That would be Jackson Smith and Jigbas record
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: for receiving yards in a single game that came in
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: the twenty twenty two Rose Bowl against Utah. Next up,
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: same game, five hundred and seventy three c J. Strud's
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: records were passing yards in a single game that was
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: in that Rose Bowl, again with most of those going
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: to Jackson Smith the Jigba. Now you're going to be
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: hearing a bunch about Archie Griffin. Nine hundred and twenty four.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: That would be his career total of rushes. So the
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: number of career rushes for Archie Griffin nine hundred and
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: twenty four, one thousand. That is Tate Martell's single game
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: completion percentage. He is the only player in Ohio state
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: history to have at least ten pass attempts in a
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: complete all of them in a single game that was
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: against Rutgers in twenty eighteen. Five thousand, five hundred and
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: eighty nine, that's Archie Griffin's career rushing yardage. Six thousand,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: five hundred and fifty nine, that's Archie Griffin's career total yardage.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: And then the last one nine thousand, four hundred and
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: thirty four that's JT. Barrett's career passing yardage. All of
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: those substantially separated from first places to second place in
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: the record books. So Kevin, we'll go through and we'll
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: just kind of go through our top three or four
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: or whatever we have time for here, go ahead, which
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: of those records strikes you as the most unbreakable in
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: the short to medium term of Ohio State football.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: I'm going to go with the seventy three pass attempts
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: by Dwayne Haskins. That obviously is a sign of a
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: completely broken running game. And while you may have an
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: offensive coordinator and a head coach that both really like
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: to throw the ball, you're not going to necessarily win
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: many games throwing it around seventy three times. And I
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: just don't think that. I think that with the clock
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: rules speeding up and taking half a dozen, a dozen
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: plays out of a game. Offensive plays out of a game,
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: you would have to mean how many games has Ohio
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: State had seventy three offensive plays? I think that if
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: you went through and looked at the last couple of seasons,
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: since they've sped up the game so they can service
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: more commercials, there have probably not been a lot of
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: games where they've had seventy three offensive plays. So that
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: would mean that they would have to go ninety eight,
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: ninety nine one, one hundred and ten percent throwing the ball.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: So no, yeah, and I actually looked that up as
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: part of this research. In the twenty twenty four season,
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: Ohio State had sixteen games, only one of them did
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: they have more than seventy three plays on offense. That
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: was against Michigan State. They had seventy five in that game.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: So just game by game, they had sixty four, seventy two,
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: fifty seven, seventy five, sixty five, sixty eight, forty seven
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: plays against Nebraska, sixty four against Penn State, sixty six,
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: fifty seven, fifty five, fifty nine, sixty four, fifty seven,
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: fifty seven in the Cotton Bowl, and sixty two in
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: the National Championship. So yes, that one. I thought for
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: sure that was maybe the clear cut best one on
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: the board, just because it's such a historical outlier. No
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: one else in Ohio state history has thrown more than
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: fifty four passes in a game, So he's already nineteen
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: clear of anyone else. And that's before you have the
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: clock rules and the adjustment to the sort of pace
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: of play where you're not even getting seventy three snaps
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: of game. So yeah, I think that was an excellent
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: choice for the number the number one pick on this list.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: So well done there. I'm gonna go, you know what,
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: I'm going to go with the negative one here, and
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: you know you can psychoanalyze that all you want. But
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: forty six career interceptions by Art Schleister, Now he is way, way,
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: way clear of anyone in Ohio state history. He was
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: a four year starter his freshman year as a true
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: freshman nineteen seventy eight. What he has this last year
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: twenty one interceptions and four touchdowns. If you are if
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: you throw a four to twenty one ratio of touchdowns
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: to interceptions, you are on the slow boat to FCS,
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: perhaps before Thanksgiving dinner is served. At this point, so
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: you're very unlikely to get there in that, you know,
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: in that way where you throw twenty one picks in
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: a season forty six. To get there without throwing twenty
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: one picks in a season, you really got to pretty
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: much be a three to four year starter and throwing
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: way more picks than most Ohio State starters are now.
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: A lot of guys sort of in that eight to
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: ten to maybe twelve range. That's about as many as
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: you're seeing these days out of an Ohio State quarterback.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: So you'd have to be a below average Ohio State
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: quarterback who's minimally a three year and possibly four year starter,
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: And that just doesn't seem possible to me in the
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: realities of modern college football, especially under Ryan Day. If
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: you're throwing twelve fifteen picks a season, you are not
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: going to be the starter next year. You're going to
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: be replaced. So that one seems very unlikely to me
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: to have anyone even get close. The closest to anyone
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: to come this century. JT. Barrett he finished with thirty
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: and he was theyasically a three and a half year starter,
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: and he got only not even two thirds of the
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: way there. So I think that one is very very
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: unlikely to ever get broken.
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: I'm going to dovetail and do another J T. Barrett
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: things that you just mentioned, J T. Barrett, And that's
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: nine thousand, four hundred and thirty four yards of career
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: passing yardage. And that's more of a system of I
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: don't think you're going to see at Ohio State a
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: career college player. And by that, I mean if you
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: go out and you have a year where you throw
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: for forty five hundred yards, if you're draft eligible, you're gone.
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: If you have if you if you sit there and
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: you do that and you have one more year, maybe
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: you come back and do it another year. But you know,
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: Ohio State, even with all of the throwing and everything else,
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: that's a big number. I mean, that's you know, that's
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: saying that you're going to have to get forty seven
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: seventeen over two seasons. And because I don't think we're
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: to see anymore three year starters. I just don't think that.
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: I mean, Ohio State is not going to have a
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: point of where it's going to be like, well, we're
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: building for next year, let's bring this guy in and
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: we can get three years out of him. That just
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: I don't see that ever happening now in terms of
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: the numbers being real. You know, is it reasonable that
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: somebody could have three thirty, one hundred and change seasons.
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: It's not out of the realm of possibility. I mean,
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: especially if you're playing fifteen, sixteen, seventeen games a year.
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: But I just don't think anybody's going to get enough
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: reps to get there, because I mean, again, if Ohio
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: State's playing a true freshman quarterback a year one quarterback,
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: it's probably not playing games thirteen, fourteen. Well, it's playing
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: game thirteen, but it's not game playing games fourteen, fifteen, sixteen,
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: and seventeen. So this is just a math thing, and
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: the math isn't there.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I strongly agree with everything you said there. I
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: think we could. You know, there's there's another JT. Barrett
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: one on this list that I think we could almost
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: just three in there with this one one hundred and
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: forty seven touchdowns career responsible for. He had one hundred
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: and forty seven. The second place person on the list
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: is Braxton Miller with eighty eight, so slightly over half
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: of what J. T. Barrett had.
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: And J. T.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: Barrett was a red shirt freshman starter, but then who
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: played five seasons as a college quarterback. Ryan Day has
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: not had a quarterback who is a starter for more
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: than two years in a row at his entire time
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: at Ohio State. It was two years of J. T.
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: Barrett when he first got here, two years of Justin Fields,
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: two years of c. J. Stroud, one year of Kyle McCord,
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: one year of Will Howard, and then if it's Lincoln
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: Kinoles or Julian saying, you're probably looking at two years
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: and out at that point. So you're you're not going
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: to the way they turn over quarterbacks and the way
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: we recruit quarterbacks. You're just not going to see someone
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: who's in there long enough to pile up those numbers
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: without also being not so talented as to depart for
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: the NFL, but also talented enough to not get recruited
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: over that just feels like a very narrow into there.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: So I'm kind of cheating here. I'm gonna lump that
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: those two together because it feels like you're sort of
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: having the same conversation there.
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: I marked it. I marked it. You're red on my notes,
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: so I don't go to it, and those red are
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: Tom yellow er mine. So I'm giving that one to you.
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: There you go, all right, I'm gonna cheat here and
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: I'm going to take the three Jeremiah Smith ones. And
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: I know we all literally just watched this happen. A
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: true freshman wide receiver put up seventy six catches and
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: one three hundred and fifteen yards and fifteen touchdowns. We
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: just saw it happen. How hard could it be to
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: have it happen again? Well, it took sixteen games. But also,
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: I don't I still don't think people understand what an
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: insane season that was for Jeremiah Smith. I'm going to
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: do my best to put this in context. We've talked
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: before about the fact that, you know, all the records
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: he was breaking, he broke them all by early November.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: They were all held like Chris Carter NFL Hall of
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: Famer Chris Carter, he was the benchmark, and Jeremiah Smith
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: went by him like the road runner going past Wiley
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: Coyote in about You know, I wasn't done pilfering my
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: kids Halloween candy and all those records were in the
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: in Jeremiah Smiths wake. But let's just set that aside
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: for right, now you can look and say, Okay, Brian
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: Hartline recruits all these immensely talented true freshman you know,
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: five star wide receivers. You see these guys. He just
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: churns out these first round draft picks year after year afteryear.
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: How can you say no one will be able to
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: do that. I'm going to give you the numbers for
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: all of Brian Hartline's six first round NFL draft picks
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: and what they did in their freshman season. Okay, so
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: this is a Mecca Abuka last year nine catches one
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: hundred and ninety yard one ninety one yards, zero touchdowns,
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: So that was his freshman year. Marvin Harrison Junior in
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: his freshman year, eleven catches, one hundred and thirty nine yards,
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: three touchdowns. Jackson Smith and Jig Biden was this was
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: the COVID year. But ten catches forty nine yards, one touchdown.
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: Garret Wilson huge, huge, huge outlier three three x what
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: most of these other guys are in several of these categories.
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: Thirty catches, four hundred and thirty two yards, five touchdowns.
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: Chris Alave twelve catches one hundred ninety seven yards, three touchdowns.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: Jamison Williams, who ended up going as a first round
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: draft pick out of Alabama, but was a Brian Hartline
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: recruit who was a first round NFL draft pick. Six catches,
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: one hundred and twelve yards, one touchdown. Okay, all those guys,
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: six six future NFL first round draft pick wide receivers
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: under Brian Hartline, they combined combined six for two more
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: catches than Jeremiah Smith, nearly two hundred fewer yards, one
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: hundred and ninety four one hundred ninety five fewer yards,
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: and two fewer touchdowns. Six guys combined compared to Jeremiah
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: Smith in one season. Yeah, he had sixteen games. I
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: don't care. It ain't happening again. However, good you think
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: Jeremiah Smith is and whatever a historical outlier you think
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: that season wants it was way more than.
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: I agree. I looked at that one recency bias kept
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: me from using it because I was like, there's is
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: gonna be somebody's like as you said to start it, Well,
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: we just saw it. I mean, you know we, I
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: mean we're in an era of where it can happen.
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: We're not in an era of where another Jeremiah Smith
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: is just going to show up. And you can say
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: what you will about Chris Henry Jr. Or Jamie Brown
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: or guys like that who are tabbed for future years
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: twenty six, twenty seven for Ohio State. But Jeremiah, to
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: quote Mark Gibler, is an alien and that it is
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: what it is. I am going to take one of
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: the three or four Archie Griffin things here. I could
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: make an argument for most of them, but I'm gonna
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: say nine hundred and twenty four career total rushes. And
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: once again, that comes down to the fact of we're
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: in a very different game, a very different day. I
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: was just talking to somebody on the phone. I was
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: on ninety seven to one on Tuesday, and we were
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: talking about running backs and everything else, and I said,
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: this is a case of where you're going to have
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: your back. May only have seventeen carries in a game,
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: and that's going to be considered a lot of work.
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: You're not going to Monty Ball for Wisconsin. Rushing forty
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: five times is not walking through that door. Archie Griffin,
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: you know, rushing the amount of times that he needed
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: to to get to that number is not going to
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: be there. So not only is it a matter of years.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: Running Backs certainly have one of the shortest shelf lives
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: out there in terms of the hits that not only
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: that they deliver, but that they also absorb or that
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's all of the hits that are that
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: are there. So are you going to play enough years
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: and are you going to get enough carries in a game?
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: And okay, this is one where you can be successful
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: and you can play seven you could play fifty one games.
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: You could play fifty one games over three three years,
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: and we're gonna we're using a prop here because all right,
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: let's see what what nine hundred and twenty four divided
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: by fifty one is is eighteen eighteen carries. So that
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: doesn't sound bad. But again, running backs, you got turf tow,
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: you got you know, you've got you know, you've got
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: a groin pool, you got something else. I just don't
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: see that happening based on what's happening. We're talking about
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: the outer reaches of everything to get to that point,
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: and it's just it's just not gonna happen.
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you could lump all three of these
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: Archie Griffin ones together because the argument is essentially the
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: same thing you just said, he played for four years.
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: He played in an era where you got so many
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: more carries. He played in an era where it was
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: not three and out. You played your four years, and
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: he played in you know, the they just ran the
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: ball a lot more back then. And so yeah, he
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: Archie Griffin almost two hundred carries ahead of JK. Dobbins,
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: who is second place in the in Ohio State's record book,
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: nine hundred and twenty four to seven hundred and twenty
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: five carries JK. Dobbins, of course, after three years, because
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: that's what you do if you're a three year starter
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: at Ohio State rushing career yarded showtal five thousand, five
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: hundred and eighty nine. We just saw an exception to
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: the excellent three year starter backs leave for the NFL
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: after three years. Graveon Henderson of course, just did it.
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: Travian Henderson finished nearly two thousand yards short of Archie
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: Griffin three thousand, seven hundred and sixty one, so basically
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: eighteen hundred yards short of Archie Griffin, even with four years,
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: even with playing sixteen games last year, had some injuries,
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: because of course you're gonna have injuries as a running back,
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: and of course you're going to now split carries. Same
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: thing with the career total yardage, Archie Griffin even bigger
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: gap to you know, Archie Griffin was thirteen hundred and
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: set ninety seven yards ahead of the Sorry, he was
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: thirteen hundred and ninety seven yards on average over four years.
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: So you no one in Ohio state history gotten within
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: a thousand yards rushing of Archie Griffin. No one in
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: Ohio state history has gotten within fourteen hundred yards in
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: terms of total yardage of Archie Griffin. So yeah, those
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: are those are all you kind of lump them in together.
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: I think those are those are excellent ones. My last one,
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: I'm going to take Jackson Smith and Jigbit three hundred
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: and forty seven yards in the Rose Bowl receiving yards
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: in one game. Jackson Smith Jigbat is ninety four yards
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: ahead of the second highest total in Ohio state history
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: that with Terry Glenn. He was he had two hundred
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: and fifty three. That was the previous record. Jackson Smith
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: and Jigba's game required you had to remember all the
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: pieces that went into that performance. Three hundred and forty
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: seven receiving yards in a game. You had maybe the
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: single greatest quarterback, just pure throwing quarterback in Ohio State history,
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: in C. J. Stroud. You also had a leaky Buckeye
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: defense that was constantly they were playing for behind, their
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: constantly giving up points. They ended up winning that game
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: forty eight to forty five, so they just had to
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: They were playing from behind, so they just had to throw, throw, throw,
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: throw throw. You also had a Utah secondary that this
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: sort of gets lost in a lot of times when
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: people are talking about that game. They were playing a
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: running back at corner, first time he played corner in
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: the college game in Ohio State. Knew that Ohio State
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: went after him. You had that going for you. You also
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: finally had two guys who were sitting out that game.
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: Garrett Wilson and Chris Olave were both sitting out, so
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: Jackson Smith at Jigba was the only guy who had
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: been the full year starter. Yeah, you had guys step up.
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: Marvin Harrison had three touchdowns in that Rose Bowl. But man,
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: you had so many different things coming together to have
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: Jackson Smith and Jigba put up three hundred and forty
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: seven yards receiving in one game. That's one. It's a
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: little like the Dwayne Haskins seventy three passes. Even if
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: you do see it again, it's one of those good
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: news bad news things where if you have a receiver
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: going for that much, that's fantastic, but there's a lot
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: of like, there's probably a lot of stuff going wrong
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: for that to all be able to happen.
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's like the whole situation, Well, I'm leading
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: the league in rebounds. Yeah, you're leading the league in
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: me bounds. You can terrible shooter, and you're following your
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: own miss six seven times and the pumping up numbers,
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: So yeah, I have I have no issue with that.
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: JSN Again, I was sitting here thinking it's like, well
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: what if what if JSN got all of marbs numbers
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: in that game too? I mean, you know, are we
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: ever going to see that type of situation? Hopefully not
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: in terms of it means. I mean, if you're gonna
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: if you're keep firing, it's because you can't stop the
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: other team. At some point you call off the dogs.
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: Whether or not that point is in the third quarter,
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: the early fourth quarter, the late fourth quarter, you're generally
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: not going to be running it up. That's just not
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: the nature of the sport. Hang one hundred on them.
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: It hasn't worked out so well, So you just, yeah,
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: I think that that's one of those types of of
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: performances that I will remember for a very long time.
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: And and like Tom been doing this for a long
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: time and all the games start to run together after
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: a while, but that one has a very clear image
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: in my mind.
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that one one. I'm wearing my Rose Bowl hat
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: right now. I also have a poster and you can't
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: really say it's the poster on the wall behind me
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: is from that game, because that was just such an
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: incredible game. I was like, I gotta go. I get
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: to get something to remember that one by that twenty
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: twenty two Rose Bowl forty eight forty five against against
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: the utah Utes and absolute classic in Pasadena. So Will
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: We've been talking about this one for quite a while
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: on the huddleboard presented by Jeff Ruby's Columbus, debating other
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: records that might fit into this category. We're going to
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: end up doing shows like this on the defense and
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: special teams at some point as well, because there's a
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: lot of interesting stuff to look at, and you know
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: that this is an Ohio State team that is immensely talented.
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: Will they break some records? Almost certainly, so we'll be
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: talking about the ones that they will and the ones
• 21:01
