Game Thread Game One: Ohio State 34, Miami of Ohio 14 (final)

Just checking MHT - saw this one... (In fairness, most of the talk I'm reading is OSU dominated, Miami stunk it up, etc.)

3) RR only got 2 punt return opportunities, none in the first half. We were able to contain Ginn extremely well, and what I saw on the field proves to me that RR is better than Ginn.


:slappy:
Classic. RR stands for Ryne Robinson, in case you were wondering.

Well, all in all, Miami did contain Ginn rather well, in fact better than some BCS teams...(not tossing out names... but a school up north comes to mind.)

Miami's offense couldn't seem to figure out the OSU D. It was just one hell of a game, and RR didn't look horrible, neither did Nance. OSU's D was more than stingy... if they play like that everygame, they'll have an NC trophy this year.

if you call 125 all-purpose yards (the most on either team) and a TD 'containing' TG2, then more power to ya... :shake:

They "contained" him better than most teams from the midway point in last season because they completely sold out to stopping Ginn. I hope every team we play this year "contains" Ginn to 125 yards and a TD in this sense, which will allow a number of our other playmakers to do their thing.

I know this was discussed around Photo Day, but the pants are definitely different from last year. They have a matte finish now as opposed to the shiny finish of years past.

I like that Tressel invites many injured players to stick around and help out with game-planning. I spotted Chattams, Coleman, and Trombitas all wearing their jerseys on the sidelines. Trombitas was actually signalling most of the plays in when Boeckman was inserted.
