Game Thread CFP Playoff Cotton Bowl, tOSU vs Texas, Fri. Jan. 10th, 7:30 ET on ESPN

[Captain Buckeye]

a 3 and out here would be so huge… force a punt, go score before the half, and then score after the half

Arch time

Be nice if they’d call a hold on Texas.

 

[OHSportsFan]

Not going to lie, surprised they haven’t run more. Texas seems to be playing a safety or two back.

Got away from it that drive

 

[Nati-Toledo Bucks]

Traps, counters, RB screen etc. Texas is scared of being beat deep. Get them outta that

 

[Jagdaddy]

A little more pre-snap motion on offense would help Will I think.

 

[Thump]

Ewers us going to eff up soon!

 

[LsuGrrrl]

Just be patient and take what Texas is giving you.

 

[Captain Buckeye]

Texas is sitting in 2 deep zone.

Either you be patient and take what they give you or you run the ball and try to draw them out of it.

Either way, the deep shots aren't there on purpose. Be patient and execute.

We need to attempt to run the ball a bit… I agree they’re taking away the shot. First drive we did great but we need to add in the run.

 

[Bestbuck36]

A nice QB or RB draw on the next series should gain a big chunk with their safeties back that far.

 

[BUCKYLE]

Fuckin squeeze that life out of them and grossly abuse the corpse

 

[charlohiottean]

Time for the defense to score

 

[Hetuck]

Fucking penalties, man. You’re squandering opportunities and letting Texas hang around. Get your shit together. They’re one scoring drive away from getting their crowd back in the game. They’re stunned. Don’t let them recover. Step on their throat.

 

[LsuGrrrl]

BOOM

 

[AuTX Buckeye]

Ewers getting his man killed
