Game Thread Game One: #1 Ohio State 35, Northern Illinois 12 (9/2/06)

[BB73]

Come on now, Mili, let's give credit where credit is due...

Wolfe is the only runningback since Chris Perry in 2003 to break 100 on us. Impressive, no matter which way you slice it.

Not true. Noah Herron had 113 at NW'ern in 2004.

Anthony Davis had 168 the next week against Wiscy.

Maroney got 133 last year at Minny.

2 redzone fumbles today...

That is how you lose ballgames. It doesnt matter against NIU, but it will against Iowa and Texas...

JZ...

that's two turnovers inside the 5 yard line... i thought this shit was gonna stop this year...

Bastards at ohio.fm lied to me.

 

[RhodeIslandBuck]

I think everyone can agree that we played very well but there is still alot to work on.

interesting to note that Noah Herron is playing for the Packers...

The fumbles would worry me more if they were starters.

Did Anderson Russell just go in? That's the first I've seen of him.

he played early, and has played well...

Coleman sighting.

Russell's been the nickel all day.

 

[BrutusBobcat]

Oops. I need to pay more attention. :)

Sack for Lawrence Wilson...good to see also.

 

[lvbuckeye]

LMAO! the announcer just said sometimes you get too much Ginn and juice and start walking crooked...

 

[Best Buckeye]

the game

Game ball to Ginn, Wolfe is a real deal. part of that is because I thought we played tentatively on defense and made tackles tentatively

 

[scarletngrey11]

Our rush defense better improve between now and next Saturday, because Charles would've taken a few of those long runs all the way to the house...

 

[BB73]

CBS's stats have Troy at 18 of 25 for 299 with 3 TDs and 0 picks.

ABC had it at 297 yards.

My plane for Austin is scheduled to depart in 24 hours and 4 minutes.

defense

From what i just saw Charles has to show me a lot to be as good as wolfe.
I do agree about rush defense but add linebacker play as well:osu:
