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

[Powair7s]

We have run up the middle on first down three straight series for 0 yards.

 

[Nati-Toledo Bucks]

Give me plays that include Trey and Judkins on the field at the same time..doubling 4 where is emeka..

 

[TampaBuckeyes]

They are playing with 2 high safeties but everyone is running downhill at the snap. We seemed good with attacking over the middle but then went to screens and it hasn’t worked at all.

Still in control here, get it to the half 7-0

 

[Zurp]

the two minute timeout for them...

If they had taken the timeout, they'd get the ball with 2:30 to go, 2 timeouts, and the 2-minute warning. Now they get it with 1:55 and 3 timeouts.

We've got to be able to run the football against this kind and of look.

This is the problem and OSU hasn’t been able to since the injuries.

Yep. Trash that.

 

[AKAK]

Howard starting to look scared back there.

Wrong thread

I have to assume that golf ball on Howard's hand is affecting his ability to throw even if it's his off hand.

i have to assume the headset in his helmet is affecting his ability to throw

Texas's fans are just happy it's not 21-0 right now.

Offense needs to get back to the middle of the field hook to curls. They are still there. Also, the RPO is wide ass open and if they tighten up, key and go and get that deep shot in.

Your posts to their ears

We aren’t even trying….

Need to start pounding the rock on 2nd and 3rd down more.

Don’t run on 1st

They are getting predicable on offense and Texas D seems to know what’s coming.

 

[OHSportsFan]

4 drives with a chance to get a 2 score lead. 0-4

coaches and players are stumped. Getting beat individually, getting beat on playcalls and getting beat on execution/penalties.

Running ain’t working. Smith ain’t working. Howard is hesitant. Need halftime adjustments bad.

 

[Telekinesis]

I mean, I can’t begin to fathom the runs up the gut. It’s like someone drugged them and they got amnesia. Just makes zero sense. Not our game. You’d think someone would learn. Wake up.

14-0. I fully expect a pick 6 here.
