I still wonder how some people survived the Tressel yearsWhat a concept! Durrrrrrr indiana so scary

I've found that replaying or re-attempting something that didn't go my way in a previous attempt usually means I don't move forward.
All this worrying about last year is kinda dumb. Yeah look at what they did, but these teams are basically ENTIRELY different in so many areas, that trying to take anything other than Ohio State lost the game up front from last year's game is meaningless in my IMO.
Also, worrying too much about what you THINK the other guy is going to do to you, rather than working on and concentrating on what you want to do yourself is also a surefire way to not get what you want to do done.
Art’s gonna have to call a masterpiece with that availability report. If he does — and I damn well hope he does — his critics will have to reconsider their positions. Not one who follows the NFL at all, the only thing I know of him is what I’ve read here… so I take him with a bit of a grain of salt. But candidly, he’s better than our last OC. I hope this game puts him in a discussion with Chip as the comparison.
Saw it pre game.
I still have the paper BSB when he was a freshman.
Jesus H titty fucking Christ am I getting old.

Baseball dude.Dufuq?!?
Saw it pre game.Hey just flipped on Washington/Purdue and who is on the announcing crew? Robert Smith!
Well then, as long as his HS ran the THTGDB offense, I’m good with it.SIAP but Bey _was_ a HS QB… so… {insert there’s a chance.gif}.
Thank you for putting words to a bunch of thoughts in my head.Catching up on things but pretty much agree with what I’ve seen - this is Arthur Smith’s biggest test.
Texas has a great D because they got the dudes. But Haines is probably the best DC in the game. He puts his players in the right position at all levels. And he’ll know exactly what he wants to do going into this matchup.
I mean, last year’s game is out there. We all know what is coming - disruption up front and pressure on Sayin. We’re down our most reliable RB and a starting OL.
So what does Smith have to counter it? What does he do to keep Sayin comfortable? Is it extra chip blocking or is it quick flare passes to the RBs/TEs or is it screens or…etc etc.
I hope anything is better than what Hartline/Day came up with at the end of last season.
SIAP but Bey _was_ a HS QB… so… {insert there’s a chance.gif}.My question is how does the wildcat help Throw Him The Goddamned Ball?
