LB Arvell Reese (National Champion)

Brugler said when he releases his next top 50 Reese is going to be #1
I have been watching tape on Reese and he is the most dominant defender since Chase Young for sure. Somehow he has the strength to easily move offensive lineman, and the speed of an elite linebacker. The way he uses his unique strength and leverage is a thing of beauty. IMO he should be rushing the passer a bit more, but he is capable of pass coverage, or spying a mobile qb. Just an insane package.

OC/WR Coach Brian Hartline (National Champion)

Yep. The fumble isn't his fault. Hell.....it wasn't even a fumble. But the decision to go soft with 2 mins left in that spot is minorly annoying. Should've been at least 20-7 at half.....maybe 24-7.
I didn’t like the play call either but saying it was “going soft” in that moment is a little off, IMO.

A lot of play callers call a similar play in that situation, hoping defense is playing pass and you pick up a decent chunk of yards on 1st down to set-up a manageable 2nd down.

Assuming he doesn’t fumble, they take play clock down, and likely look to throw on 2nd down but have used a chunk of game clock so if 2nd down goes poorly, you stay conservative on 3rd, punt, and take it to half up 17-7 which isn’t terrible.

But if that play goes for 5-6 yards, they’d have gone tempo knowing they had 2nd and 3rd down to pick up a manageable distance.

Anyways, the run game hasn’t been great…CJ’s momentum had been stopped and I also don’t believe it should’ve been a fumble, had officials blown whistle properly. That said, u can’t lose the rock there….its the last thing you can do in that situation.

Game Thread #1 tOSU at Purdue, Sat. Nov. 8th, 1 pm ET, BTN

I can't believe I'm about to say this, but, is anyone else feeling a bit...bored? It's like we're sleepwalking through this season just waiting on The Game ad the Playoff after. I've never felt this way but it's, kind of awesome.
They're a 'boring' dominant team but I haven't been bored watching them. It's honestly been really pleasant. They just go in, handle business, and get out with minimal drama.
