2026 tOSU Offense Discussion

I can see why the coaches picked Sayin. Great arm, throws a very catchable ball, tight spiral, on target, etc. BUT the three Natty's won in the 2000s by the Bucks had QBs who would pull the ball and run if they had to. Hindsight, but maybe the shot at another NC was lost when the vote went against Kleinholz.

This is simplifying the game way too much. Howard ran for 220 yards, Cardale ran for 80 in 3 starts, and Krenzel ran for 360. So OSU also hasn’t won an NC with a QB that’s run for more than 360.

I don’t mind Sayin running the ball more, especially options in short yardage. I don’t think it’s a magic key to unlocking more NCs, and it’s not worth sacrificing a better passing game for a handful of scrambles.

And I doubt the fanbase that wants to wrap players in bubble wrap and play the backups more will be ok with their QB getting hurt running the ball against Purdue.

Ryan Clark and Kelci seemed to think he needs to be out there.
No QB in history is coming back with that Oline, lack of skill players to make a play and vs this team in New England weather. Lamar's running ability might make a few plays but he'd throw picks as well so it's a moot point anyway.

Does Houston bench CJ for the second half? It could be a confidence killer, but also might be their only shot to win

You have to at this point. There’s no coming back from this in this playoffs with this line and OC
They haven't put CJ in anything like a position to succeed. Some of that is on CJ himself but some of these play calls are...yeah.

And ESPN basically digging CJ's grave is pissing me off. Bad games happen.
