Game Thread Indiana at tOSU, Nov 5th, Noon ET, BTN (ovflw for some)

I'm watching the game through the forums comments because I'm stuck watch MSUvMinnesota. It's a lot more relaxing than watching the actual game. I would probably be saying the same stuff you guys are, but I've burst out laughing at some of these comments. I would of thought the score is 21-7 if I wasn't also watching it on Yahoo.

We're coming off a great win, so I expect the team to bounce back in the 2nd half. Granted, I'm not watching it live.

1st half thoughts...


  • Zero rhythm on either side. Not a fan of the soft defense. Disrupt a young QB.
  • Offensively. Missed opportunities. I don't see playcalling as an issue overall but more of a lack of execution besides a few big plays.
  • Get in at half, regroup, dominate.

I just don't understand why they are trying to force the ball using the I formation when it's obviously not working They've had one big play out of it.. Where's the Pony? Are they only allowed to use that once a season? No options, rollouts with short passes....etc.

Execution is bad, I agree, but the playcalling is also mystifying. They need to go to more shotgun in the 2nd half and leave the I for short yardage gains. Get Miller into the open field. He gets a 81 yard TD run and then zero designed carries after that? No idea why that happened...

I also found this link:

Have never used the site before, but it was the only one that did not want to sign me up for some subscription.

Can't thank you enough for helping find this link Buxfan! I haven't got to see a game since last year so this is a real treat for me.

Now lets SEE our Bucks come out breathing some fire in the 2nd half.

Crappy call in the end zone on that interference.

I am totally confused as to why we consistently struggle to thoroughly dominate a doormat team from start to finish.....

This is an Indiana team that has been dominated by just about everyone this year. It looks like the Bucks thought they could just show up and win today. They need to take their game to another gear in the second half and blow this team out.

This game feels like a carbon copy of Toledo. Everytime you think the Bucks get momentum, they have a letdown.

Biggest difference is the defense has actually stopped most of what IU has wanted to do since about the 8 minute mark in the first quarter. Besides that long pass play, IU has been stopped.

Totally different second half. Bucks get a lead, force IU to pass, get some sacks/INT's. Blowout.
