i agree. Looked like a bad route or QB play. Glad it worked out for us but could've been ugly!

DA FAQ asked you, troller?

Bama has the killer instinct

Ohio State does not.

They also have their first string QB and Ohio State does not. Jones is looking like J.T. during his Virginia Tech game.

Let's get it down to a touchdown then get the ball at half. This thing isn't over quite yet

 

[Mike80]

Right. All of the youth is killing us right now. If Brax or JT were playing this might be different. Need to find some kind of answer here.

Brax or JT wouldn't matter here....the lines are getting dominated too.

 

[Drubuck]

Need 7 here and get ball at half

Make no mistake, Ohio State can play with Bama if they aren't making mistakes but Alabama is a very good team and probably better overall.

Yep, and as we're forced to try and come back it's quite possible this could get ugly. Talent-wise we're there, but turnovers and inexperience at QB are tough to overcome against a team like Alabama.

 

[TampaBuckeyes]

Now it's obvious that we can't pass so they defend then run.

 

[bkochmc]

They are going to key on Elliott the rest of the game... he's the only one that is consistently gashing them.

 

[Bestbuck36]

Good. What a dumbass.

Prepare for Bama to blitz the hell out of the run now. They know Cardale is shook and we are forcing the offense

 

[SloopyHangOn]

Now they lean on Elliot?

 

[Drubuck]

Convert convert convert

The offensive line is a trouble area in pass blocking as well.

 

[BayBuck]

Yeah Cordell!

 

[scarletngray]

YES

 

[Jake]

This feels like it's going to get out of hand, unfortunately. We all know how that's going to play if it happens.

Gotta put together a TD drive NOW.
