Yeah the more I think about the 2nd half drives, I don’t think it was turtling. Game came down to guys being exhausted and the same issues with Sayin and the OL. If you’re going to run this offense, the QB CANNOT miss the throw to McCuin and has to see more of the field.
This season will come down to how the offense adjusts to this 2nd half performance. Either Sayin and the OL grow, or it will be a tough year.
0-3 against last 3 top 5 match ups…1-3 last 4 games. Brutal. Let’s see if they can turn this season around. B1G is still very much up for us to win and not quitting on this team.
There was a certain point near the end of the 3rd when I said "I've seen this script before" and knew the home team looking for revenge is going to get it. My dad looked over and asked why I was so unemotional and I said because I know where this is headed. Hoped I was wrong but yeah, you watch enough football and you just kinda know.
In fairness, he’s gotten them to rebound before. He seems to think that a big game always has to be hard though and thus makes it so. Texas was handing OSU this game, and it was as if he couldn’t believe it was real and so made it not real.
I don’t care about stats. I care about how he leads the team and how they respond to him. Absolutely no fire on the offense. Without Smith, there would no hopes for any postseason.
Lol, I will pull back. But the poorly missed field goal. Bad offensive calls. Uncharacteristic drops by Smith. Bad clock management and bad defensive sets seemingly changed the game.
I won’t blame JJ because everything was off by the time his drops occurred. But we ice that kick and we are going home winners, we catch a few third down balls we are going home winners, or if we just stop one of the 3 fourth down attempts we walk away winners.
I was shocked Sark was going for it but now that the games over we better do the same thing from here out or we will not be in the playoffs

Told my wife we were losing as soon as Sark went full NCAA Football video game and they got that 1st very risky 1st down. The momentum and vibe completely flipped at that point

What the actual fuck, asshole? Kick the fucking field goal when it’s 4th and 2 from the 12, you prick. Stop trying to prove that you’re tough. Take the points, play defense and get the ball back. If you just do that, we win by 2.
Sayin played pretty well in the 1st half. Problem was Texas made adjustments at the half and we did not. Some of its on Sayin he missed some throws but a lot is on the coaching

That was a head scratcher for sure but he has his offensive coaching chops, one could argue he revolutionized how the game was played for a period of time. The game may have passed him by but he’s still a brilliant offensive mind.
Arthur smith may not be a bad coach (just don’t tell BN27 that!) but he certainly has never shown anything close to impacting how the game is played with his offensive schemes or philosophies. I don’t think he’s a bad OC necessarily but I couldn’t confidently assert that he’s a really good one either.
