I dont know, Ive yet to see a coach thats really in a fantastic mood after losing a game. And you usually only see warm exchanges between coaches after games if the coaches know and like each other because they maybe coached together somewhere or are related or friends - its obvious no such relationship exists between Tressel and Carr so I wouldnt expect the post-game exchange being anything more than going through the expected motions. Id say thats quite normal in football.
On the other hand I can see how this type of stuff from Carr riles OSU fans. Michigan likes to pride itself in being classy and of a higher, noble breed as compared to most other programs. Its in some ways perceived like a public school Notre Dame and that brings us the accusation of arrogance from most other Big Ten fans. Primarily because with such a high standard set - we are bound to disappoint.
Yes, Carr gets grumpy, he loses his patience and he whines etc. and our players arent all angels either and yes our fans have thrown objects on the field as well. Thats natural and most people wouldnt care if there wasnt the lofty ideals of the Michigan Way and our lofty Michigan Man standards.
The fact that we do not always show the grandeur people would expect given such high standards doesnt stand out to the general public because we do overall run a clean ship and our fans are amongst the better behaved in general etc.- but this slight disconnection between image and some facets of reality is bound to rile those opposing fans who deal with us on an annual basis especially as we have a much better and "classier" reputation than them which they probably feel is undeserved.
damn, guys. did you see the picture of carp walking off the field after the game? that's hard to see.
Well, son, then get used to this. Take away the Cooper years and we have owned these guys that last half century. And now, we own them in this century! :osu:
Couldn't have said it much better myself. Since 1951, Woody's first year, OSU is 27-26-2 against Michigan, but 25-16-1 (.602) without hick-boy Cooper's clusterfuck tenure.
Double NegativeThis shouldn't have not been a ball game in my opinion.
I am hoping you are speaking of throwing the ball down field, not marching straight down the field...For a defense who held a good michigan offense to only 250 yards of total offense. OSU never went down the field only until we hit adversity.
First drive we completed a 3&14 deep outI couldn't watch the first half but it looked like in the 3rd quarter Michigan had our offense figured out because we only did intermediate routes at the longest until the 4th.
But my point being we have outstanding offensive players yet we fail to use them, there is no time to get conservative during the Michigan game. With the ball in Troy Smith's hands great things happen, because nothing gets to this guy and he thinks he's the best. All our offesnse has to do is roll the pocket and Smith will succeed. His best plays are outside the pocket on the run, I say let him loose. I just think it's rediculious that this offense is so reluctant to go down the field, it will cost us games. What do you guys think?
