Game Thread FIESTA BOWL: tOSU 21, Texas 24 (01-05-09)

[Jake]

Great first half for the Defense...O needs to finish

I'm betting Texas fans feel the same way at this point.

205 yards = 6 points

193 yards = 3 points

TOP in our favor. Hope we can pound on them in the second half.

 

[THEWOOD]

Anyone else sick of seeing Todd in there yet? Im not bashing him. I just dont like the way it disrupts the offense.

 

[Brutus1]

Colt McCoy's mom is a MILF.

 

[buckeyemania11]

I wonder if we will see A Boeckman to Pryor pass in the second half

 

[614]

i said

"please intercept the ball"

and then *madden voice* BOOM!

it happened

2nd half turn field goals into 6

 

[JCOSU86]

A couple of costly penalties or it would have been worse for Texas. Great turnover to end the half evened it up.

I feel that we are winning in all aspects of the game. We just need to finsh strong on offense. I also think we should keep Boeckman out of the game. Very intense game we need to keep up the intensity and I feel like we can truly win this game.

 

[Steve19]

hell yeah they got to stop [censored]ing around and help out our defense. i think texas is gonna come out swinging the 2nd half

Well, Ohio State is going to come out swinging too. Given the -9 yards rushing Texas has achieved, I like our chances.

BUCKEYES !!!

 

[buckeyebri]

Is this game on ESPN360? Is there a way to maximize the camera that lets us watch Colt's family watch the game? I've seen more of Colt's dad than I have Jim Tressel and Mack Brown combined.

+1.....

I tell you if we can eliminate some of the mental errors on offense we would be golden.....I think the game plan has been well done with a mix combination of run and pass....I love seeing how the defense is just flying around....the silver bullets...

 

[osugrad21]

Offense- Beanie
Defense- Heacock(see what happens when you bring pressure?)

He hasnt run anything new tonight. The DL is getting it done which makes any DC look good.

Beanie is straight trucking...Pryor had some early jitters but expect him to make those throws in the 2nd half.

The playaction is sick...Keep Posey in there.

Look for playaction off the zone read option coming soon...

Defense? Not much to say...DL is getting after it, the unit is swarming with bad intentions.

Colt McCoy is legit...he is carrying Texas right now.

 

[sandgk]

Surely you jest. Ohio State? Speed? Put down the crack pipe man

Go Speed!!

 

[OHSportsFan]

Chekwa is getting picked on.

Pryor is making some plays. Missing others.

D playing GREAT. Understand that we're playing a very good Texas offense.

Offense has to tighten up and get a score or two. Texas will adjust and get it together.

Heacock called a great play on that INT. He blitzed up the middle and McCoy thought it'd be open. Homan dropped back. McCoy had to lob it. Pick by Russell.

Really wish our offense would punch one in. Our D can only do so much...or maybe they can do it all...I'd rather not find out.

 

[Buckeneye]

At Damon's in Mentor.

Halftime thoughts.

Knock off the stuff with Beockman and Pryor already, it was cool the first two times, but in the redzone - nobody has had to respect Pryor as a reciever.

Browning - that false start killed us, this game could be 10-3 right now.

Beanie, love you man. Defense - keep on keepin on lets knock McCoy around some more. Nice pick, nice stand.

Robo dropping that ball kinda hurt, that would have been badass.
But we need to get rid of the ball quicker, especially on 3rd downs when they obviously blitz a young freshman. A slant would burn these guys. Speaking of, I told you I would like to see some screens, that one to Beanie was sick.


Lets not be afraid, lets keep attacking - and good job shutting down the rush. We need, some damn TD's, and lets get em'.!!!


Go Bucks!!
