B1G CCG: #1 tOSU vs #2 Indiana in Indy, Sat. Dec 6th, 8 ET on FOX

Bo Jackson is a good solid back. But he's not a game changer (at least not now---I dont know if people thought Zeke would become what he became fwiw) but I'm sure other teams are fine with him getting 20 carries a game
Bo would be a very nice change of pace back behind Peoples, if projections held up properly. It's not his fault that Alford (and other circumstances) have left OSU's depth chart so thin most of the past decade.

Yes, Fields was the problem

Using Brady Cook and Tyrod Taylor as benchmarks isn't the argument you think it is.

The NYJ largest offensive roster issue is the QB position.

I understand the natural inclination to defend our Buckeyes, I get it. But they're professionals now. We need to have a more sensible, logical and level-headed approach to our evaluations.

QB1 Julian Sayin (All B1G, B1G Frosh of Year, National Champion)

They sped him up in the pocket and delayed his reads consistently. All night.

There is no such thing as "delaying reads" There are progressions that aren't viable as you make reads. There are muddled reads. But there is no "delay" you get into your progression and/or triangle... the difference is the speed.

When your time to throw is shortened, your processor must speed up.

This game was more on coaches imo. IU guys had a better game plan and our guys didn't catch up until it was too late (and still almost won).

There are ways I agree. But I saw missed execution on the OL and QB early and late. There was a collective, top-down failure last night on the offense (sans WRs)

Learning experience. Nothing foundationally wrong.

The OL getting their asses whipped is absolutely a foundational issue. How we see Julian progress in playoff prep will reveal more. But there were things scUM threw at him that IU did as well. Both defenses were successful in those deployments, IU especially because of their DL.

Hoping we face Miami in the Cotton Bowl. It would remove the home field advantage with facing A&M and make it a truly neutral sight. they also finished third in the ACC, which is not a strong conference. They also lost to Louisville and SMU. Two teams that have pretty decent passing games. We can use that to our advantage. Plus it's Miami.

A&M doesn't scare me at all. We will contain Reed just like we did Demond Williams and Bryce Underwood, he's a terrible passer if he can't run around unchecked. (See the Texas game) A&M D is also very exploitable. Think we beat them or Miami by multiple scores.

The biggest joke is Bama getting nuked in the SEC title game and not even moving at all.

Not gonna shed tears for ND but they really did get screwed by the shuffle to protect Bamas playoff spot that was set up last week when they all of a sudden put Bama ahead of them for no logical football reason when ND had been ahead of them for weeks.

It's more clear than ever that they just make shit up week to week depending on the narrative they want set.

I love our draw even more now that I started looking at all the numbers.

I hate that the second game would be in Glendale. Fuck me.

We could play the greater Phoenix Area Pee Wee all stars in that cursed ass place and I would expect to lose.

I'll do more later but I'd put OSU as a ~7 point fave over either Miami or TAMU. ~-3 over UGA but it will be a rock fight(just not the same kind of rock fight as last night).

Dd I mention forget all that no matter who the fuck we play in Glendale?

fuck fuck fuck

We always play our neutral site games in the opponents back yard.

Yep last years semi final against Texas was the cotton bowl as well.

They coulda and shoulda gave us the orange bowl and Texas Tech the cotton that. I know the orange bowl is not neutral if Cryami wins but there would still be more Ohio State contingent at that game

I’m all on board the “fuck ND in perpetuity” train, but what an absolute joke to swap Miami and ND when neither team played yesterday. Hell, the only team playing yesterday that either team played this season was Boise who won by 17 - and that would only strengthen ND’s schedule.

Just making shit up to justify what they want to do. Some arbitrary shit. I’d be pissed if I was an ND fan.

I'm interested to see what Day does to fix the o-line debacle. Different plays to make up for its inherent weakness? I don't see it getting fixed so it needs to be some nuance. If they don't figure it out, no Natty. IU showed everyone else how to attack our offense.

Play Van Sickle and maybe Moore passes Daniels in practice.
