Not looking good. No way we can win a shootout with this year's offense.

 

[Gothmog8]

Eh, first Q. Not worried. Yet.

 

[youra6]

Welp.

 

[Wells4Heisman]

TD for the good guys incoming

 

[lvbuckeye]

This quarter needs to be over and need a big play offensively to get them back in it mentally.

I'll settle for two consecutive first downs at this point.

 

[BUCKYLE]

I mean 10 pts ain't shit. Just gotta settle down and execute.

 

[scarletmike]

Shit.

Time for the O to step up.

 

[OregonBuckeye]

Not fair to make the defense carry the team single-handedly in a game like this

 

[BoxCar_Willie]

We don't look bad. Don't go off the cliff yet!

 

[sparcboxbuck]

Uggg... Need to get the ball moving on O. I think, for the most part, the D is looking OK. Just have to be able to do something when we've got the ball.

Feel'n for Durbin tho.

 

[Deety]

A little hardcore answering is in order.

 

[Onebuckfan]

Three would be nice

 

[Systems_id]

Can't blame the D at all right now. You can't fuck around on offense when the opposing team has one of the best offenses in the country.

 

[james cammelleri]

Ship sinking quick

 

[Jake]

Honestly we've asked too much all year imo.

They really haven't let us down. I think they're up to the task.

I think the defense can do okay, but 17-20 points won't win this game. Offense won't have great field position all night and two opportunities have already been wasted.
