Game Thread Maryland at tOSU, Sat. Oct. 10th, 4:15 pm ET, BTN

Definitely a little nervous going into the Indiana game with how much Sayin has been getting hit lately. Especially with how creative IU can be with their rushes, which our line always struggles with
Indiana has nothing to feel confident about after that Nebraska win

Basically, we need to be reasonably competitive with them in creating/avoiding havoc and special teams. I think we’ll win a clear majority of plays run, but we need to not give them a big margin on impact plays. Hope Day lets everyone’s balls hang out.

OL Coach Tyler Bowen (Official Thread)

I’m no expert, but it seems to me that the middle three are borderline mauling people. I don’t know that we’ve got any experienced quality tackles on the roster so we’re making due with guys who’d probably be better on the inside, and most of the problems are coming out there or from RB inconsistency in picking up blitzers. We also have, yet again, a new OC and injury issues. If Sayin was quicker at getting off his first reads and deciding when to run, we had an elite RB, and didn’t run a bunch of tight formations, I think the OL would look quite a bit better, although the formational choices likely are in part a result of a lack of confidence in the tackles.
Middle three still struggle with stunts is the issue even after Indiana exposed that weakness last year and Miami beat it into oblivion

We need someone who can recuit and coach. We've had ass recruiting for years finally get a recruiter and the Oline as a unit steps backward

But we know they DO practice it, so that's kinda not the issue.

At some point the kids gotta perform.

Urban liked playing starters on special teams. Maybe that trend needs to come back.
When Tressel’s Lt. Governorship ends, hire him as Special Teams coach Emeritus.
