Game Thread #1 Ohio State vs. #8 Wisconsin, 2019 B1G Championship Game (Lucas Oil Stadium Dec 7 8:00 PM Fox)

Re-watching the first half

OSU only had 4 possessions, was in position to score TD on 3 of 4 but only managed one. Fumble inside the 5 and missed Olave wide open in EZ.
That is the formula for both close game we saw at the end of the season, TO's/empty RZ trips.

Wisky was running play clock from the very first snap but got 5 possessions in. Scored 3 TD's out of the 5. Basically it was all on 2 long runs by Taylor and the drive where Coan ran it in. Fuller did not have the best first half of football in his career last night.
Without rewatching, I will add that it felt like Coan pulled more than a couple third and long conversations out of his ass in the first half as well.

My position at halftime was that as long as both QBs reverted back to the mean (Fields started playing better and Coan stopped pulling miraculous conversions out of his ass) we would be golden.

On defense we apparently did the exact opposite of the Michigan game (switch from zone to man) and went with a heavy zone to stop those short slants, we also started really aggressively hitting the middle of the OL with our LBs and slanting into it with our DTs when they pulled their center, which was the run play they had so much success with in the first half... between those two things we shut down the run and the quick slants and shut down their offense in the second half.

Having competent coordinators really is nice. So, so nice.

If Fuller tackled like Proctor in the first half..it would have been over early.

second half drives

OSU: TD, FG, TD, FG, Punt
Wisky: Punt, missed FG, punt, punt, TO on downs, end of game

OSU only had 10 possessions in the game, the last one came at apoint in the game where scoring wasn't the primary objective so really, 9. Went 6 for 6 after starting 0-3.

Wisky had 11 possessions . The three punts in the 2nd half were all off 3 and outs. Their extended drives in the 2nd half were missed FG, TO on downs and end of game/end of Coan.

Seriously. A lot of you assholes should re-read this from kickoff and look at how childish you all are....so you stop fucking doing it game thread after game thread.


Just a special shout out to the fine folks at New Belgium Brewery. With their help I managed to miss all of this. I'm clearly not the smartest poster here so if someone could send me the link that shows any reason whatsoever to give up on this team before the clock reaches 00:00 I'd really appreciate it.

What a game, what a regular season finish!

I hope during the playoffs the refs will not allow OT's to give Chase hugs until after the game. I can't even call it holding anymore.

Giving LSU credit for beating UGA is damn near criminal. I mean how in the fuck do you rush 3 against one of the best QB's in the game, not get any fucking pressure doing it, and don't bother changing your approach?

There are a lot of studs on this BUCKEYE team.

Chris Olave is one special dude. I can't imagine him being anything other than a leader in the locker room. Not only is he just so fucking good, you can tell by his body language that anything other than success is not acceptable to him.
