GO BLUE (again)

Nice place next to the 20,650 seat 1-AA state of the art football stadium.
When I was a freshman in 1968 we played in an old beat up high school field, progress I guess.
Oh the. SF 49ers used to practice at the WATTS center and Stambaugh field when they were on the east coast. They liked it.
.....edit add ..... it's nice to have a good YSU President, staff, alumni to do things for the students.
The Watson and Tressel Training Site (WATTS) is an on-campus facility that offers Youngstown State athletics one of the best indoor complexes in the entire FCS and the Horizon League.
The concept was originally announced in the summer of 2007 when the Tressel and Watson Families presented the University with a $1 million donation.
Through hard work by many, the facility opened for use in the fall of 2011.
This indoor facility is vital to the future success of the YSU athletic department. The WATTS will provide the most critical ingredient to meet the challenges presented by the opportunity of playing nationally-recognized competition.
★ Located to the east of Stambaugh Stadium, the WATTS features a full-length Shaw Sportexe PowerBlade HP+ synthetic turf system football field, a 300-meter state-of-the-art mondo track surface, two long-jump pits, a high-jump pit, four batting cages, protective netting, a training room and locker rooms.
The seasonal facility will accommodate athletic team practices, intramural sports, campus-wide activities and special events benefiting students, faculty, staff and the community throughout the year.
★ Soccer, men’s and women’s track and field, baseball, golf, softball and football have the ability to practice in a safer, more comfortable environment. The facility also provides a significantly prolonged practice season to meet the challenge of the elevated level of competition YSU seeks to embrace.
In addition, the WATTS has served as a community resource - providing a large, climate-protected venue for local youth organizations and high schools. Area track and field teams utilize the facility for practices. During the winter months, the WATTS is open to the public in the evening.
★ The Horizon League Indoor Track and Field Championships have been held in the facility every year since 2011.
In the spring of 2012, a lounge for the track and field program was created. Dressing rooms for the men’s and women’s golf teams are on the mezzanine next to a state-of-the-art putting surface.
★ This $14-million project was seen as a public/private partnership in that the construction costs would be sought through private philanthropy.

I'll agree with you there -and- for all of the reasons already mentioned Ohio State has the weapons and stars plus the time to get their star RB heealthy enough to play.
And losing to a very good Michigan team at home and as a favorite HAS to be enough motivation to get the job done.
Now "IF" the BUCKEYES can knock off Georgia which should be a battle "AND" Michigan can put away TCU which should happen it might set up a great #1 vs #2 battle between long time rivals. A classic battle, now who would be #1 or #2 will be a good debate.

I know.
They win games against the Buckeyes at the same clip as a total solar eclipse, and they think they’re world champions.
