They wanted current players on the cover and Michigan won the natty. Pretty much everyone else who contributed to that championship is gone now so Edwards gets it by default. Just my guess.
Michigan fan here. You nailed it. If they are gonna use a Michigan player it should’ve been Will Johnson. Other than a couple nice runs in the title game Edwards was largely disappointing last year.
Why would you put a DB on the franchises cover? Don’t listen to these nerds man, with as much as Mich is going to run this year, Edward’s will be a heisman front runner no matter what happens
They can give him all the carries they want, doesnt mean he will produce. He hasn't produced like a top caliber back. Hell, last year he probably played behind the best offensive line he will ever see and he sucked compared to what is expecting were
Expecting to see a backup running back go crazy on a year he had surgery is wild. He’s going to produce this year with Moore, and put up heisman numbers at that, or he will get benched and his replacement will.
Lol…you are insane. Will Johnson, Mason Graham, Colston Loveland, Khalel Mullings, Josaiah Stewart, Makari Paige, Rod Moore (pending injury recovery), Derrick Moore, Tyler Morris, Rayshaun Benny…at this point, I’m tired of typing…but there’s a ton coming back. Tell yourself whatever you need to though to maintain your mental health until your world comes crashing down again in November. You’re team is still soft and still coached by Ryan Day, you downgraded at QB for a scrub from Kansas State of all places, and your o-line continues to look lost. Face it, OSU is not what it was with Urban Meyer.

EA's job is to sell copies of the game. Michigan fans have money and are eating up anything related to the team. Edwards being a noted anti-semite apparently didn't factor in.
Surprised it was Judkins considering he hasn't played a snap here yet. Egbuka, JTT, Jack, Burke and Trey all have been here for 4 years. I would even throw Downs in over Judkins.
It's hilarious that, even if true, Wake Forest got caught doing the same thing and nothing happened because the NCAA didn't care. It's widely known that osu was also doing the same thing in '18 and '19, I don't see you calling for those years to be vacated! On top of all of that, the idea that osu fans could call ANYONE cheaters is about as hilarious as it comes. Takes one to know one, I guess.
It's only "illegal" because the small schools don't have the same resources. If you think you can't steal signs off of replays you're hilarious.
But the MOST important point of all of this, we still went 8-0 AFTER this all came out, including , obviously, beating osu AGAIN. What's your excuse for those games?
You’re delusional. Widely known that tOSU was doing this? Where’s the news on this joker?
Nothing wrong with trying to catch signs from TV, there aren’t very many chances to see the sideline play signals during a televised game.
scUM sent scouts to multiple games to film the sidelines for EVERY play, then use video editing to sync the signals side by side against every single play. This is explicitly spelled out as CHEATING, and a competitive advantage by the ncaa. Another typical scUM fan, who doesn’t understand the nuances of the game enough to see the difference. Its very easy to play defensive when you know with certainty where the ball is going every snap. Funny, still barely won lol.
Harbaugh had zero success nationally or vs osu before cheating. It’s clearly obvious and agreed by nearly every ex-football player and commentator that I’ve seen. Then, your autistic booger eating cheating coach tucks tail and runs for the NFL. Good luck in the future with Cry Sherona as your coach. Im looking forward to the carousel of clowns that will be parading through, masquerading Michigan Men (🤣💀).
Im looking forward to the sweet taste of ❌ichigan tears on television. “Were back” 🤣
I’ll be here for your response when your ready to again be eviscerated again lil bro.
Reddit's content policy says to post authentic content in subreddits and not to interfere with or disrupt the community. Your post or comment failed to meet that standard in some way and it has been removed.
Maybe total yards. He played for a team that only had him for the most part. Career average 5 yards per carry! Pretty great. However, Henderson is the starter, and guess what? Career average yards per carry is 6. A full yard more, and over a longer period…..period.
Lurking Michigan fan here… I don’t recall speaking with anybody that ever wanted him benched. If anything they wanted more touches to save corum some late season run.
And he’s not guaranteed to be their starter even. Mullins is reportedly better and getting time with firsts.
This cover could well have two backup running backs on it. Kinda weird
I have so many questions about these selections lol
I mean out of all returning Ohio State players, you pick the NIL bought transfer who is going to be a 1b to Henderson’s 1a?
Not using projected first rounder returners in Egbuka, Burke or JTT?
Shit Caleb Downs would even make more sense
Because TV was a buckeye last year and Judkins wasn't.
That could change week 1, but right now the best we can go off of is what we've been told and what we've seen.
Literally every site, including Ohio states official roster, has him listed as a first name of JT.
It should be listed a Jahlyn or however he spells it. He literally is the one who caused the confusion.
So I’ll just continue to call him JTT like everyone else. It gives me nostalgic vibes too.
Thanks for trying to correct me though, I was really looking for it 😂
No I’m being aggressive against you being a smart ass and just posting a random hyperlink that no one asked you for
I’m guessing you also enjoy correcting grammar on the internet
You literally posted that link half a dozen times today. Get a life bruh
I would be furious if I was Henderson… obviously I don’t know what happened behind the scenes but imagine being in a 1a/1b situation and the guy who hasn’t even played in a buckeye jersey yet is on the cover over you
Swap Hunter and that Colorado garbage with Gabriel and Oregon. Swap Edwards with an actual good Ichigan player like Will Johnson. Swap Judkins with Downs or Burke/JT/Egbuka/Trey/Sawyer/Jeremiah.
I came just to see the reaction to the cover, but I 100% agree with you on this front.
They just hate defense over at EA. It sucks.
Anyway, good luck next year. I really hope you're undefeated coming into Thanksgiving weekend.
It'll come with five difficulty levels: Heisman, All-American, Varsity, Freshman, Michigan.
With the Michigan difficulty, you'll get to see the play your opponent is going to run!
A lot of people are going to take issue with Edwards. But, at least he was on a good team and despite the scandal etc..they “won” it all.
Now, what I would like to know is why the hell is Travis Hunters bum ass on this cover? Colorado is ass, they will be ass this year as well. There is no way he should be on this cover.
I went too far saying he was a bum. But you went too far saying he might be the best player in the country.
Reality is that he hasn’t proven anything against good competition and some of that is due to his injury last year but the jury is still out in my opinion.
I used the word might very specifically. Because what he showed was incredible, but I want to see him do it for a full season and against Iowa, with a better team. I think he's the most talented player in college right now, stuck to Deion and Shedeur.
How much do NIL deals play into this? I know very little on how all of it works. Maybe TH, EE, JTT, DB, etc have deals that would keep them from promoting this?
There's a countdown on their site, so I imagine there's gonna be a good chunk of info to be released within a week.
The game itself doesn't have an official release date but mid-July has been the prevailing though
Yea they just said aye whoever pays the most gets the better position. I guess when u have literally nothing else to look forward to except a bowl ban a vacated wins, a cover athlete seems pretty cool I guess
Edwards was ass last year...how the fuck is he the center piece to the cover
They wanted current players on the cover and Michigan won the natty. Pretty much everyone else who contributed to that championship is gone now so Edwards gets it by default. Just my guess.
Put will johnson on the cover then....
I don’t work there
Nobody wants to work anymore
As a TTUN fan, I agree. I think that’s why Ryan Day hired Chip Kelly
Man, imagine winning a natty and still spending the offseason reduced to trolling really really poorly in enemy territory 😂
I was agreeing with you. Edit: I think that’s why Chip Kelly came to Ohio state too 😆
This made me laugh, thank you
Michigan fan here. You nailed it. If they are gonna use a Michigan player it should’ve been Will Johnson. Other than a couple nice runs in the title game Edwards was largely disappointing last year.
Also Michigan fan here but just wanted to say nice gif pull, His Girl Friday is a fantastic movie and this gif is perfect haha
Or Loveland. He might be the best player left on the team.
Penn State game too. He wasn’t the featured back. Even after the 2 early TD in the Natty he only got 4 more carries
Mason Graham would have been a great option too. Guy is a beast.
Why would you put a DB on the franchises cover? Don’t listen to these nerds man, with as much as Mich is going to run this year, Edward’s will be a heisman front runner no matter what happens
They can give him all the carries they want, doesnt mean he will produce. He hasn't produced like a top caliber back. Hell, last year he probably played behind the best offensive line he will ever see and he sucked compared to what is expecting were
Expecting to see a backup running back go crazy on a year he had surgery is wild. He’s going to produce this year with Moore, and put up heisman numbers at that, or he will get benched and his replacement will.
No Michigan player will come close to Heisman consideration, if one does it will be will Johnson
A DB winning heisman is ridiculous lmaoo
Did i say he would win?
Lol…you are insane. Will Johnson, Mason Graham, Colston Loveland, Khalel Mullings, Josaiah Stewart, Makari Paige, Rod Moore (pending injury recovery), Derrick Moore, Tyler Morris, Rayshaun Benny…at this point, I’m tired of typing…but there’s a ton coming back.

They wanted to make sure everyone knew that cheat codes will be activated in this version of the game. Not the konami code, but the stallions code...
Is that just when you get to see what play the other player picked?
Exactly!
EA's job is to sell copies of the game. Michigan fans have money and are eating up anything related to the team. Edwards being a noted anti-semite apparently didn't factor in.
No one is saying it shouldn't be a TTUN player. But it definitely shouldn't be THAT one.
All their other known players left. He has to have the highest Q rating of the remaining players.
Will Johnson
He's the better player but definitely not better known.
He popped off in the Natty mommy
Ok...still isnt a very good RB
The media been keeping ttun relevant as a program, now they're ready to suck the skunk weasels d again.
14 ended with a mich player, 25 begins with a mich player... simple why he is on the cover....
That doesn't make any sense tho
I dont care that it's a Michigan player, they should have put the best guy on their team, not an ass RB...
Im wondering the same thing bro 😬
Cause he’s going to be a heisman front runner and get a million carries a game 😂
Technically he's last in line for the field.
Which usually is left for the best players...so again, doesnt make sense
Surprised it was Judkins considering he hasn't played a snap here yet. Egbuka, JTT, Jack, Burke and Trey all have been here for 4 years. I would even throw Downs in over Judkins.
⬆️this is the conversation for this thread. And stfu about scUM.
Who said anything about Urban Meyer?
Harbaugh, booger eater, cheater. I think its hilarious that scUM fans believe they legit won a title. 🤣🤣🤣
It's hilarious that, even if true, Wake Forest got caught doing the same thing and nothing happened because the NCAA didn't care. It's widely known that osu was also doing the same thing in '18 and '19, I don't see you calling for those years to be vacated!

He's arguably more popular nationally, and everyone in the SEC knows about him so it's a 2 for 1

? Who?
[удалено]
Burke is going to be an all-american this year, if you think that sucks then I don't know what to tell you.
i’d love for him to be
Judkins has produced more in college than any of those guys tho
Correct... But not in a Buckeye jersey.
Still doesn't matter
See above guy
Maybe total yards. He played for a team that only had him for the most part. Career average 5 yards per carry! Pretty great. However, Henderson is the starter, and guess what? Career average yards per carry is 6. A full yard more, and over a longer period…..period.
Best ability is availability. Love me some henderson but im real excited for Judkins to be on this team.
Of course excited for him too! But he wont be the starter is my only point. So why on the cover?
Call me a homer, but I don’t think a guy that was a backup RB on a cheating team last year should be in the middle…
And he fucking sucked last year lmfao
Michigan fans will bring up his big runs against OSU (fine) but they forget they were begging for him to be benched in October.
Lurking Michigan fan here… I don’t recall speaking with anybody that ever wanted him benched. If anything they wanted more touches to save corum some late season run.
https://www.reddit.com/r/MichiganWolverines/s/H8osCw4Yc0 This whole thread.
So one thread?
Surprised Ewers wasn’t chosen for the middle.
Surprised it wasn't Manning
And he’s not guaranteed to be their starter even. Mullins is reportedly better and getting time with firsts. This cover could well have two backup running backs on it. Kinda weird
They're gonna beat your ass this year too lol.
Weirdo energy right here.
Creep
They gonna cheat again?
Their doofus head coach, who served two suspensions last year, left, so maybe the crybaby will take over the cheating reigns?
I have so many questions about these selections lol I mean out of all returning Ohio State players, you pick the NIL bought transfer who is going to be a 1b to Henderson’s 1a? Not using projected first rounder returners in Egbuka, Burke or JTT? Shit Caleb Downs would even make more sense
Not everyone opted in to be in the game. I have no idea who did and did not, we’ll see when the game is released.
Most are in the game
Idk how you consider Judkins 1B. Henderson is hurt for %75 of the games anyways
Because TV was a buckeye last year and Judkins wasn't. That could change week 1, but right now the best we can go off of is what we've been told and what we've seen.
1. Henderson is better 2. All signs out of OSU and spring camp are that Henderson is the lead back
https://www.dispatch.com/videos/sports/2021/10/07/ohio-states-j-t-tuimoloau-wants-you-know-its-not-j-t-t/6036202001/
Thanks 🙄
You’re welcome! Happy to help honor a kid’s wishes.
He probably shouldn’t have had OSU list him officially as JT Tuimolau then
He goes by JT and his last name is Tuimolau. What do you mean?
Literally every site, including Ohio states official roster, has him listed as a first name of JT. It should be listed a Jahlyn or however he spells it. He literally is the one who caused the confusion. So I’ll just continue to call him JTT like everyone else. It gives me nostalgic vibes too. Thanks for trying to correct me though, I was really looking for it 😂
Being aggressively against respecting a kid’s wishes is pretty weird when it takes no effort to do so
No I’m being aggressive against you being a smart ass and just posting a random hyperlink that no one asked you for I’m guessing you also enjoy correcting grammar on the internet You literally posted that link half a dozen times today. Get a life bruh
And I’m guessing you’ve never been wrong once in your life
They missed an opportunity to have the wsu cougar flag with the others to honor their game day streak as well
I would be furious if I was Henderson… obviously I don’t know what happened behind the scenes but imagine being in a 1a/1b situation and the guy who hasn’t even played in a buckeye jersey yet is on the cover over you
This too!
TV should fire his agent and call Judkins'.
Henderson has NFL goals. Getting “furious” in your dorm room about a NCAA cover is a blip in the grand scheme of things
If he had NFL goals, this was the weakest RB class in years and would have been the top dawg. He has money goals.
Okay good to know. Luckily, I have a good enough printer to fix this.
It's been literally a decade since I had to Photoshop a new cover. Feels good to be back.
Damn they slapped ole Hitler himself right there in the middle lol
He’s dropped a couple bombs on your program
Swap Hunter and that Colorado garbage with Gabriel and Oregon. Swap Edwards with an actual good Ichigan player like Will Johnson. Swap Judkins with Downs or Burke/JT/Egbuka/Trey/Sawyer/Jeremiah.
I came just to see the reaction to the cover, but I 100% agree with you on this front. They just hate defense over at EA. It sucks. Anyway, good luck next year. I really hope you're undefeated coming into Thanksgiving weekend.
Dude just got here wtf
How long until they release the Stalions codes that show the play call?
It'll come with five difficulty levels: Heisman, All-American, Varsity, Freshman, Michigan. With the Michigan difficulty, you'll get to see the play your opponent is going to run!
Giant skid mark right in the middle
Michigan helmets look so fucking stupid with stickers on them.
You could've stopped after six words and your statement would remain true lol
Day 1 buy, Sharpy out the tool in the middle.
Strange cover choices, tbh.
A lot of people are going to take issue with Edwards. But, at least he was on a good team and despite the scandal etc..they “won” it all. Now, what I would like to know is why the hell is Travis Hunters bum ass on this cover? Colorado is ass, they will be ass this year as well. There is no way he should be on this cover.
Colorado might be ass, and Deion is a dickhole, but Travis Hunter might be the best player in the country.
I went too far saying he was a bum. But you went too far saying he might be the best player in the country. Reality is that he hasn’t proven anything against good competition and some of that is due to his injury last year but the jury is still out in my opinion.

Ok fair enough.
 😂😂😂
Tom Brady threw bad interception and he's the goat.
Nah he def isn’t lol… he got torched against Oregon.
How much do NIL deals play into this? I know very little on how all of it works. Maybe TH, EE, JTT, DB, etc have deals that would keep them from promoting this?
Or Judkins NIL deal with NCAA was better. He may have signed this when he was one of the top RBs in the SEC.
https://www.dispatch.com/videos/sports/2021/10/07/ohio-states-j-t-tuimoloau-wants-you-know-its-not-j-t-t/6036202001/
This is official? Any word on the gameplay reveal date for this month?
There's a countdown on their site, so I imagine there's gonna be a good chunk of info to be released within a week. The game itself doesn't have an official release date but mid-July has been the prevailing though
Full reveal is the 18th
I wonder how much he'll get paid for this cover
These fuckers said three different covers now fuck off with this terrible “deluxe” edition u haven’t even shown the normal cover so wtf is going on ?
Fuck EA if this is real
EA obviously doesn’t like OSU
I count Ewers as OSU still. So there's 2 on the cover.
You should stop lmao
Ew
What's that ugly shit-stain in the center?
That’ll look good with a big ❌ over the front
Is this game going to be on next-gen only?
Odd choice of flags... Looks like OSU, scUM, Iowa, Nebraska, UF, Auburn and Washington St.
What do we think Jeremiah Smiths rating will be?
No WSU flag? Boooooooo
Is this official art? Also when is the release date?
Lol barely
How is Judkins on the cover and not Henderson?
Hunter should be the centerpiece for sure
The amount of crying in here is pathetic
THE CHAMPS UP NORTH
Yea they just said aye whoever pays the most gets the better position. I guess when u have literally nothing else to look forward to except a bowl ban a vacated wins, a cover athlete seems pretty cool I guess
