What are your thoughts on Ohio State Buckeyes' defense?
CB needs to be better, and the DL rotation needs to be less frequent (Mike Hall & Zach Harrison need to be playing more than 20 snaps). Safties have been great. LB have been out of this world (Tommy Eichenberg may be best in the country). It's FUN to watch, which is waaaaaaay different than last year.
@@DanielIsaacs I don't find myself saying "oh boy here we go" on 3rd and 9 anymore
@@cjhowell6406 same here my guy!!! We went from one of the worst defenses last year to one of the best this year.
2021: #53 in total defense
2022: #2 in total defense
@@mrand1themamba and realistically do I think we're really the #2 defense rn? No probably not. But I don't see them dropping out of the top 15 by the end of the season. And Saturday may prove me wrong altogether
Slightly better than last year.
JKlatt I cannot thank you enough as a big ten and Ohio State fan I finally feel like your voice has finally brought some credibility to the Big Ten and Ohio State after years of being told we were second class by ESPN and their affiliate SEC network... It's just honest reporting of course with your valuable insight but it's much appreciated!!
Tommy Eichenberg never gets enough credit
The dude might be the best LB in college rn
His Pre snap knowledge is hands down the best
Of course along with him and Jtt
It never was a lack of talent it was just the scheme
Browns are similar
Absolutely insane how quickly this defense went from a mess to an organized offense wrecking machine
Astounding turnaround if you ask me
2021, we were in the middle or near the bottom as far as total defense about #60 in total . As a buckeye fan, it was hard to watch, we couldn't get off the field on 3rd downs situations.
2022, a completely, vastly different Ohio State defense and we're top 5 in almost every defensive category including #2 in total defense. Knowles really has made this defense way WAY better this year so I'm amazed and pleased so far but I know we're gonna be tested when we play better offenses down the road.
After beating who? Iowa and Toledo 🤭 see y’all in November… that will be the real test! Go Blue
@@michiganmarv1860 Who have you clowns played? An over ranked and over hyped Penn State? Or do you mean the world beaters called UCONN, Colorado State, and Hawaii? You idiots have the easiest schedule in the country stfu.
@@michiganmarv1860 it's funny how you guys claim Iowa is a big win until we beat them better. Lmao
@@michiganmarv1860 is it a rivalry is yall only won 3 times since i was conceived
Good stuff Joel. You are putting out a bunch of great content, Thank you!!
It kills me to say this as a Huskers fan all my life, but you are hands down the best college analyst. Love the new podcast. Well done, sir.
he is is far from being the best. What i can say is he really loves ohio state.
@@markfennell1604 really? You had to comment negatively on that? What makes you think I care one bit about what you think? Just read the comment and move on.
@@markfennell1604 well when you're actually a good team why wouldn't people talk about em? lol
Great explanations! Especially for someone like me who's doesn't see everything during the game.
Said it before, I will say it again. Klatt is the best in the business. Great analysis.
Jim Knowles signed my hat!
You are my favorite football guy!!! Great explaining and even in lamen terms 🤣🤣
Mr. Klatt, you are the only college football analyst I consistently watch. Pollard is good. Herby is very, very good. You are da' man. Now, I suggest that in addition to analyzing Knowles' schematics, we should also consider the athletes on that OSU defense. The scheme is beautiful and deadly. OSU's athletes make that scheme murderous. Yes, I am an OSU alumn, so I understand if you choose not to engage me. We OSU alumni can be obnoxious and boring.
Not only is it scheme, but you are seeing fundamentals again, the motivation, and the confidence. These players are flying faster to the bal than I can remember in a long time.
He had a top defense with Oklahoma state talent. There are three five stars on the D-line alone. Do that math. What did everyone think was going to happen?
This is what I’ve been telling people. They think last year is relevant 😂
Gonna need every one of them against that michigan o line
@@jacobwalsh8886 GTFOH, your team in Ann Arbor is over-rated. You are not even worthy of being ranked in the Top 15. Just wait until November 26, 2022.
@@osikanii I’m not a Michigan fan but they are unbeaten and own Ohio state in the record overall so I wouldn’t look past them so easily lol.
@@kennypowers1945 I agree. Michigan dominated Ohio State in the 1890s so you don’t want to sleep on them. It’s very sensible.
Joel is excellent!👍☘️
Just goes to show how out of depth that Kerry Coombs was. It also shows how important scheme is. I love Coombs, but he had good talent, but did not put them in the right positions to succeed. He should’ve stayed CB’s coach, because he was a terrible D coordinator.
I knew Knowles would be good, but I couldn’t have dreamed he would be this good.
He got ran outta Columbus for a reason. Coombs at best is a great recruiter and defensive positions coach. He’s no coordinator. I personally don’t miss him one bit. Yet I wish him the best.
Night and day difference from last year
Is Ryan day and Jim Knowles a powerful combination best offense and possibly the best defense
well no on defense rn. if we contain ttuns rushing attack/offense well and then go to playoffs and are successful in slowing down those teams then that claim can be made. Obviously against those top 4 caliber teams and ttun who is a top 4 caliber team you usual don't expect to just dominate them
Best we have had in awhile!!!
Go. Buckeyes
Knowles has a big training background... old school originally under Maxie Vaughn (George Allen pedigree among others)... then great split field coverage in the 4-2-5 under Chuck Driesbach (Gary Darnell's 4-2 + Gary Patterson split field coverage) ... he was head coach at Cornell, but then could really begin to think on how he'd like to develop a philsophy of slowing down power spread offenses while at Duke. Then with Gary Gibbs (who recently had influence of the the great Romeo Crennel and Bob Sutton at KC - where they were doing all kinds of disguise) at okst... I really think this cemented Knowles as a master of disguise
Everyone is trying to do this now -- mix coverage with pressure --- and a lot of pattern match -- but knowles is a bit unique -- I don't see a ton of bracket and pattern match - but it's still tricky... not so dependent on executing assignments as in the others ... reminds me a bit of Venables Defensive Mind ... though more towards coverage than pressure - venables came from a pressure background - thus all the aggression...
but make no mistake - Knowles is definitely considered aggressive now
I do believe that we've got our money's worth with Jim Knolls
Giving away our plans! 😂
I hope that Michigan can get their offense defense and implement the ball and get it touched down and get as many touchdowns as possible to Michigan State
Ohio State ranks
#4 in the country in defensive FEI rankings
#2 in yards allowed per game
#3 in passing yards allowed
#8 in rushing defense
and toledo was their best competition. calm down.
@@markfennell1604 lmao... you say toughest because they scored 21 point after the buckeyes took out the first string in the middle of the 3rd quarter. Here's something like this guy👆 won't tell you the buckeyes first 5 games their first string was out of the game middle 3rd quarter or early 4th quarter... hmmm keep that bs over there lil guy.
@@markfennell1604 And if you even had the vaguest of clues's how FEI calculated those numbers you would have kept your ignorant pie holes shut.
@@markfennell1604 I’ll love to see what you say toward the end of the season, better yet I know it’ll be more excuses 😂 OSU best team in cfb cry about it
Joe is awesome.
People say they don’t play anyone. Well they played these same teams last year and their defense was awful
And they won almost every game last year
They are definitely much better on D that they were in years past but still need to not give up so many big plays
Michigan will be lucky to score a FG vs this defense, let alone a TD.
Lol Michigan will run all over ohio state…AGAIN!
Arkansas St scored TDs lok
I don't know about let's see how Penn state does
Aged well
Coaching matters
Can Jim Knowles please speak to Joe Woods the defensive coordinator of the Browns? As a Browns fan it's so refreshing to see a little creativity from a defensive coordinator.
He would have to use hyrogriflics. Woods is clueless
You guys uploaded the same video twice on accident
We had majority BaBies playing on defense last year. We still young ,But now theuve got some experience under they Belts. Them Boys Been Battle tested now and have started their growth into men. Add that to addition of Koach Knowles and here are your results.
Finally…
And they aren't anywhere close to done with improvement.
And yet the guy who coached the #2 defense in the country and got selected by Ohio state to run their defense lost the Broyles Award to the Michigan OC who played an absolute cupcake schedule.
who cares
Yep all 12 games of the regular season were cupcakes for sure!
and these are passes what about the run cause that’s what burned them against oregon and michigan last year
Well he was born on third base too
Bucknuts had a highly ranked D last year and they got plowed by Oregon and Michigan.
Lie
Ohio St will win the Big XII
Looking forward to seeing Go Blue in the Shoe
Aren't we all. Only been since 2018. Your 2-5 squad with Jimmy (0-5 in The Game) called off to avoid an embarrassment in 2020.
@@bradsmith9118 keep thinking that..
@@thetruth1816 Oh, the 2-5 team with the 0-5 coach showed up? We all missed that. Can you point me to the link that shows they played?
@@bradsmith9118 just like the team that showed up and played Illinois in that fake season..
@@bradsmith9118 Lol
I still think they are pretty bad
Yeah great defense, especially when toledo is the best team you've played so far. lol
And just who have you played?
Like it matters outside of week one we have murdered all that's gonna continue
I talk about football and other peoples accomplishments
The ability to read is my skill set
They have good numbers because they’ve played nobody!!!
They played nobody in 20 years I guess and they have been in the top 5 basically that entire time. Overrated right?
@@traviswalker4126 definitely overrated lol
Ok, the defense is better most definitely. Jim knowels is the truth. But what good offense have we played? Literally playing high school offenses so far. Lol
The same teams we played last year and was a terrible defense.
I'd agree with you but we also gave up a lot of yards and points last year against the same teams
It's gonna be so funny to me when Michigan beats Ohio state again and Platt has that sad look on his face
Who is Platt?
But who have they played ? All 4 Big ten teams they beat are in the bottom 6 in the Big Ten, haven't faced a top 60 offense in the country. Toledo is the best offense they faced. Looks like Penn States D, top ten, plays a real team in Michigan, 420 rush yards later, not a top defense. 😂😂😂 Fanboying for Ohio State hard
The same teams they faced last season and was terrible on defense.
How is he fanboying just for showing some improvement? You’re a hater, so how does that make you even better?
@@Maal7432 1. Each year teams are dramatically different, a real fan would know that. 2. Playing crappy teams doesn't mean much, they are untested and unproven on defense.
@@Maal7432 He has been talking about the Ohio State defense as being top ten for a few weeks now. Fanboying hard. Until they play Michigan (last game of year) they won't face a legitimate offense. That is sad and embarrassing for the sport. Until then you can't say if the defense has truly improved.
@@ericschmitt8509 you can compare the defense to last year and tell that they've improved vastly. The schemes, the play calling, the run fits, the speed to the ball, coverage, critical conversions are way down, a number of things. Just because you personally can't as a casual doesn't mean anything.
Cause ain't beened good neither none and them like lettuce was slunged and camp bats got jackets now. Y’all ant stomping Harbaugh jackal and cobra 42-27 agained
@John Cena More precisely, that's one win in 3983 days.
You know at this point I just find these entertaining as a fun decoding puzzle
Facts Ohio state trash
Typical Michigan fan with 1 brain cell left
A U of M English Lit. postdoc checks in
Fun fact! OSU has only beaten one team with a winning record…. And that was Toledo! Best in the nation?!? How? This team hasn’t won anything… J Fields lead OSU won, this team hasn’t even beaten UM 😐… Go Blue
So your first three games were UConn Colorado st and Hawaii. All teams are garbage so please don't act like your schedule is so much better than ours. We'll see you guys at the last game of the season and all that talking that you're doing. We'll see if it's got any bite to it.
You still harping on that one win last year? If you don’t wake up and realize that this team is nothing like last years team you gonna be in for a world of surprise when you’re down 21 at half in Columbus in November. Fun fact! What’s the only thing Michigan is ranked top 25 in on offense that Ohio State is top 4 defensively in? I think you get the bigger picture. You’re a little boy, go do your scum little boy things. We have a CFP to win.
We’ll just consider 2020 a victory for us. Never has there ever been a forfeit in The Game in history. Of course it’s Michican’t.
Except you're an ignorant lying 🤡
😄😅 you got your win last year after you canceled the year before🐓s. if you win it this year you can run your mouth all you want. but how many wins you got over OSU in the last 20 years?
they haven’t played anybody though so how do we know if it’s any good. go blue
That's definitely a unique take nowadays. 1st time I've heard it.. But what are you going to say after this weekend I wonder? _ichigan has played a worse schedule than osu after this weekend.
You will know in 5 weeks.
You guys haven't played anybody either. Your first three games were Hawaii, Colorado State and UConn and are all garbage teams .
@@briangamble9 so arkansas state and toledo are great teams lol come on now
@@TheBrian2024 Definitely better than Colorado St. Hawaii and UConn 🤡🤡
And Michigan will win nothing as usual
It's easy to make a defense look like it's transformed when they haven't played a team with an offensive pulse.
Top Dog must be a delirious Michigan fan they win one game in 16 years and they think they own the Buckeyes get over it blue
dont let the blue get to you they are scared as F..K to come play us
@@brianwagner9518 like we were last year ?? 42-27..
They won in 2011 to so that be twice in the last 12 lol but in ohio I know math isn't the strongest of categories
