Sayin is him, perfect few weeks to instill some confidence. Just have to give him the keys
That was the perfect game for Julian. They got up early and he didn't have to win the game by himself. I am sure there were reads he didn't make that he can work on in the next few weeks.

I dunno, Sark is one of the best play callers and Arch has a great arm. I think Patricia and the defense did a great job making him uncomfortable and never finding a rhythm. He looked like he was in a cage all game and he knew it.

He seemed hesitant to let Arch throw until he really had to. That's not a good thing.

Carnell Tate was the MVP on offense. Only 2 targets but my gosh what great catches he made in clutch situations. High pointed the first catch when we were pinned on our own goal line on 3rd down (Texas' punter was excellent btw). Then catching the deep TD on the underthrown ball where he was basically getting tackled as the ball arrived to seal the game. Loved it.

The defense probably deserved a shutout in this game. A call went against us late in the 4th quarter where our center was called for a hold and I watched the play a bunch of times and never saw it. We ran a 1-yard gain and were really just trying to run down the clock and the block occurred after the play was over, and there really wasn't much there at all. Peoples was face-masked on the very next play, and no call against Texas, forcing us to punt. Texas' right tackle was releasing a half-count early all game a la the Kansas City Chiefs' right tackle, and was allowed to do so. And on the TD catch, it looked like offensive PI to create separation, and of course that play was upheld as a TD on review.

Thought the defense battled through all those things and getting put in poor starting field positions several times. Loved the goal line stand, and the interception(s). And, our best defensive line player went out of the game with injury and we still held our own despite that and all we lost there in the draft.

2025 Texas at tOSU BMW Thread

Do you refer to the offense that won the game very effectively, or the D that nearly shut out the No 1 Team in the Country?

Hey, the Buckeyes outplayed Texas all day.

They did what they had to I'll take it. Play calling was very vanilla don't care for the constant running up the gut when we are clearly getting little to no push. Sayin showed enough composure and patience that they shoulda gave him some more shots. They will get there though can't wait to see us throw it more against these 2 up coming scrubs

Decent? Yeesh, tough grader for a defense with 8 new starters, entire new DL, playing a talented offense in the 1st game of the year that shut them out for 56 minutes

...and playing key series with, arguably, our best DE out. Tough crowd.

Texas is a great team with an awful QB and Ass play caller. They're gonna have to run Manning a lot to be successful, and I can't see him staying healthy.

yes. I was a defensive player for my football career (not really a career, but you get my drift) so I'm always going to grade defenses more harshly. But I also believe that shutout was as much on Texas being bad at passing for most of the game, which some of was good defense, but how many open receivers did Arch miss in the first half? And "decent" is on the good side of average. Plenty of room for improvement going forward, especially with the 8 new starters.

The media excuses and "let's not rush to judgment" posts are rolling in for Arch predictably. If Texas had won I somehow doubt Ohio State would be the same sentiment we would be called overrated
