BOTTOM LINE: If OHIO States OL plays well this game won't be close.

Hicks and Van Sickle are fresh and hungry as hell. Miami has little film on them and their gameplan is likely not going to be sufficient to account for the impact they are about to have in this game.
21-3 at halftime. 35-10 Buckeyes. On to the next!

We should have. I'm still not convinced we wanted to win that game a much as THE GAME or this Playoff. We'll see in a couple days

My prediction is Bucks 31 - Criminals 17. Their DL is very good and we've had struggles on the OL, but I think as a whole the OL can play well enough along with some creative play calling to go away from our weaknesses. I see this as one where we pull away a little in the 2nd half.

That’s the game. We can’t block them then this is a 4 quarter game. If we can then this will be over by the end of the 3rd.
An underrated concern is the longer layoff and I have to admit our guys are kind of talking a bit while Miami is just saying the right things.
Not sure why we are talking about “ going to go back to back” or “no one can block me” or “we have something for them” or saying we have new things in defense etc but it’s a bit out of norm. We aren’t normally the team talking but we are. It’s not a lot but it’s for sure more than typical.
So a bit paranoid that we are kind of working ourselves up a bit. I can absolutely see a way we lose this game. The guys better come into this not taking them lightly. I assure you they don’t GAF about what we did last year and our anger about last game will only help for about the first 2-3 plays.

My one and only comment in this thread. (Completely uninformed, maybe ESPN will hire me).
We have the personnel on D to stop their run game. Pletcher had a good game after wearing down A&M. But if the D can slow/stop it, then Beck becomes the main weapon on O to distribute. Beck needs to be quick and precise, like he's trying to get with another OF girl. It won't happen, but I would love to see Caleb on Toney all game. He's the main weapon. They have a few other guys in the passing game to help. But, meh.
Their D is what could keep them in the game. Great DL play. They put a lot of pressure on the OL and disrupt shit. No clue on their LB's. The DB's have been solid and can cause turnovers. OSU OL play will determine the outcome more than anything. If Julian has time, game over.
Special teams hopefully doesn't need to play a role. Our punter doesn't outkick the coverage and needs to stop Toney if he gets a crack. FG's, F*#$ me. It's indoors, but still.
