I like it, but is it just me or do all these videos always start with a bunch of negative shit from the last 12 months...voice overs/interviews about doubters, slowly building music into a crescendo during workout videos, then clips from last year? 

Or is that the recipe for a hype video?  Can we just ignore the bad shit from last year and just see the hype shit?

My approach has almost always been to capture the "mood" heading into the season, regardless of what that mood is. I understand that it's not always the desired flavor, but the "mood" heading into each season has been extremely depressing due to a season always ending in an L to OSU and a bowl loss.

Could I ignore that and make a happy-go-lucky video? Sure! I did it for 2017 preseason video, as well as the 2018 OSU game, as well as quite a few basketball videos.

If I did make a happy-go-lucky type heading into 2021, I bet I would've gotten a flood of comments talking about how I ignored what happened in 2020. So it's kinda a "damned if you do, damned if ya don't" kind of thing.
