2018-19 Bowl Season

Nah, they were pretty average when we played them.

"Pretty average" still would've won this game by 4 TDs. What was out there was horrendous.

TCU offense has gotten really bad compaired to when they played us. It might have something to do with the mash unit that they have at QB

Nah, they were pretty average when we played them.

QB is certainly part of it, but Turpin decided to go Ray Rice halfway through the year and Patterson chose not to emulate Briles. He was their biggest weapon.

Christ. Imagine being a defensive player for Cal. You hold TCU to 10 points, 28 passing yards, and get 4 INTs. And yet you lose because you have a megazord of failures at QB who combine for 5 INTs themselves.

 

[CFPBuckeye]

Cal and TCU earned their right to play in a bowl, guys.

Knock it all you want but you would kill to play in the Cheez-It bowl.

Kill. Kill. Kill.

Oh shit. What was I saying?

Turpin only had 14 yards receiving against the Bucks. Robinson passed for 300 and Anderson rushed for 150 - both were not playing last night due to injury.

 

[Nigel Tufnel]

There is average and there is 4 inteceptions and like 15 yards passing.

Yes, that is true. But they weren't good when we played them. We just didn't realize at that time how average our defense was. TCU was not much of a team and beating them was, well..... like beating a team that throws 4 INTs in a bowl. They are what they are.

 

[Jake]

Does Cal actually play good defense?
Or is the Buckeyes defense really that bad?

TCU's leading rusher and leading passer played vs OSU, but didn't play against Cal. Pretty sure Mulestain wouldn't put up 4 touchdowns against our defense.

Cal's defense held 7 opponents to less than 20 points, including Washington. Cal beat the Huskies 12-10.

So looking at the OSU season schedule, they played 2 OOC Bowl opponents and 6 B1G Bowl teams

The OOC (Tulane and TCU) teams went 2-0

The B1G teams are:
Penn State
Minny W
Purdue
Sparty
TSUN
Northwestern

 

[Jaxbuck]

Disney darling ACC is 1-1 so far and Duke is looking like they are going to get worked by Temple.

 

[OHSportsFan]

Temple defense has been for real all year.

Then the Owls give it back.

 

[OHSportsFan]

This Duke QB is #3 on the big board?

Haskins’ stock rising by the day.

 

[buckeyemania11]

Another INT fest

 

[Jaxbuck]

These teams fucking suck

Duke more so than Temple

Think I’m ready to fast forward to Wisky mudstomping the Canes in NYC (maybe).

Think I’m ready to fast forward to Wisky mudstomping the Canes in NYC (maybe).

I'm a 45 minute train ride from that stadium. Could get tickets for less than $50 if I looked.

Meh.
