    Game Thread Nebraska Cornhuskers at tOSU, Oct 6th, 8 ET, ABC/ESPN/2

    I can only imagine how rude it appeared, but please give our kicker the benefit of the doubt. If there is a school that appreciates sportsmanship and college football tradition, it's Nebraska. I'm sure it looked very bad, but I have to believe it was just a big mistake on our kicker's part...

    Crazy stat on Twitter - Ohio State has only played 10 home night games in school history (all since 1985). They won the first 6, but have lost 3 of the last 4. I would have guessed more than 10 night games over the last 27 years.

    OK Buckeye insiders, what's the deal with the MSU game tape being "doctored" to remove pre snap formations and delivered to the Spartans on Thursday of game week? Is it considered true? False? What's the word? Nebraska has asked UCF for their game tape of tOSU which I feel is odd. Is...

    Pretty misleading there. Bootlegs are not a part of our offense. I could buy we've run 1 out of 70+ plays each game. I do agree that the playbook has not been openned much this year and we very well may see a unique gameplan.

    He's in the shotgun probably 80% of the time, so when I say deep drop backs, it's ususally while in shotgun. As far as the running game - the zone read is basically the staple play of this offense. Last year they used to run a lot more true option spinkled in with the zone read, but they've...

    At the start of the game, Martinez will make his usual deep drops with confidence. He usually gets to his second and third reads (3 or 4 Mississippi) and makes a good decision. But the first few times a DE comes crashing in and suprises him, they'll be in his head for the rest of the series...

    Yes, this is exactly what Nebraska will try to do. And if you bring up a safety for run fit, Martinez has been showing the capability to capitalize on the passing advantage. It's slightly shocking, but nice to see from a kid still learning the position. The Buckeyes need to bring pressure...

    Most Husker fans chalked this game up as a loss before the season. I still believe that to be the case. You may be slightly more impressed with Martinez throwing ability. He really has impoved. 70% completions, 11 TD, 1 INT so far. But should the Buckeyes apply pressure in the pocket...

    Last movie you saw?

    Not a bad rental if you're looking for some mindless comedy. Gotta love John Cusak.

    People to Punch, Pet Peeves, and General Vexations (mega-merge)

    When the 50 yr. old lady on the phone calls you "honey". "OK, honey, we'll have it ready for you when you get here." "What's your name, honey?" "Thanks, honey, bye!" I'm not a 4 yr old boy. And if I tried to call you "honey" I'd probably get slapped with a lawsuit. (sorry, this just...

    tOSU -12.5 at Nebraska (ov/un 123.5) Sat 8 ET, BTN

    Sadly, upon further review, it WAS the worst home loss in Nebraska basketball history. http://sports.omaha.com/2012/01/22/nebraskas-worst-home-loss/

    Agree with this. And I'll add that Osborne refuses to allow Doc to recruit in the sleezy AAU circuit. Doc needs those players badly. It was painfully obvious the other night. He's recruiting with both hands tied behind his back. At least one is getting freed up with the new facilities.
