Tress is no longer in the driver's seat but left the program on cruise control. Congrats to Coach Fickell on a great first victory and thanks to Coach Tress for leaving the program in good hands!

Enjoyed the entire game. The energy the entire time was amazing, and the plays made by so many different personnel. Spectacular.

Never would have thought that we had two "more-than-serviceable" QBs. They both played tremendously. I owe Joe an apology for not placing any trust in him this spring. Just pleased overall. It was a sound whooping. Just hope we get some more practice and game time on FGs so that success leads to confidence.

Nothing major, but I know some people wanted to know how he felt about the game.

for those that normally read it, Tony Gerdman's Buckeye Watch is up, some quality stuff in there

http://www.the-ozone.net/football/2011/Akron/Postgame/BuckeyeWatch.html

some of my favorites:

11:59 Ohio State has won the toss and has elected to defer! Finally, the long reign of terror of Jim Tressel taking the ball and punting after a three and out is over! Contract extension. Contract extension!!!


1:10 The Buckeyes just picked up eleven yards on a screen pass to Carlos Hyde, and it looked perfectly normal! Which is weird. If Bauserman being on the field means normal looking screen plays for Ohio State, then east must be west, wrong must be right, and Michigan must play defense!


1:59 Reading the forum and Twitter, apparently Mark May said something stupid. Um, that's his job. And he does it very well.

Ohio State is like a Star Wars movie.

It's too hot down there. The rubber is melting. The players are essentially running on tar. That can't be good for the lungs. Oh no, a brontosaurus has stumbled onto the 27-yard line. Now he's up to his neck in tar. Sure, that dude is unhappy now, but he'll make for some sweet fossils in a few million years.

Third and three. Dominic Clarke breaks up the line drive jumpball to Marquelo Suel. Maybe next time try to get some air on that jumpball, because if you don't, it's not actually a "jumpball", it's merely a "standball", and anybody can win a standball. Akron punts.

Bracing for Braxton. I've been practicing my girlish "squee" by planting fake mice around the house and forgetting about them.

You don't think the vets are trying to sabotage Braxton Miller, do you?

Bauserman sweep for zero yards. Let's never do that again, please.

I love the emergence of the TEs (see no JT), but I won't miss the "we will run the same plays with either type of QB" playcalling next year.

Third and nine. Watch the scramble! Tyler Moeller blitzes and forces Moore into blitzing Etienne Sabino's belly of hate. Loss of five. Akron will punt.

Can we get a voice actor to dub these into our torrents?

2:55 Terrible punt by Akron. The kick went 21 yards and the Buckeyes are already in missed field goal range.

Believe it or not, Tony is even a better euchre player than he is a comedian... (He cheats, but, Euchre is kind of like SEC recruiting so, no harm no foul.)

Looks like I missed a great game. Went to the county fair in the morning and was planning on watching it at a bar (don't get ESpin anymore :):() but then a family emergency nixed that.

Read all the posts. Thankfully you all cover the game from top to bottom as it happens and I felt like I didnt miss much of anything.

Looking forward to see how tOSU will handle a tougher team next week.
