Game Thread Indiana @ Ohio State - 10/06/18, 4:00PM (FOX)

His numbers are gaudy, if not at such a volume as others...but, they have literally played no one of note and they won't until November. He will literally have 2 months of tomato cans to build a head of steam. I have a hard time giving him too much credit when he has played nothing but scrubs.

I didn't realize how ridiculously soft their schedule is until i just looked at it. It's absurd.
Alabama has only two games against good competition...LSU and Auburn. Cannot believe the Citadel is on their schedule...they must pay them a LOT of cash to come on down and get humiliated.

I would argue that the offense is on the line of being elite or not... too dependant on the throw

Everyone in the world knew OSU was going from a runner to a thrower at QB

Passing stats are up, running stats are down yet people want to wring their hands and worry about the running game

I just don't understand it. We've talked about it since the summer. Can't run when outnumbered.

Bruce Feldman, who was on OSU’s sideline, said he saw Urban Meyer shuffling down the sideline trying to point out the open man in the end zone, and ran into someone. My guess is that person he ran into had his arms up signaling a TD and elbowed Meyer accidentally.
After the tape was reviewed it was a clear targeting call by the staffer against Coach. The staffer will be sitting out the first half in next weeks game. Coach was cleared to participate in game prep this week.

Mental state of Urban in question or not. Don't run Haskins. Tried and stopped in 2nd half. D is the issue. Slow, bad tackling, bad angles and get burnt deep. Needs fixed. Run blocking needs a lot of work too. Team is very good with a lot of talent and easy top 3 and would argue top 2 though has major flaws.

Right?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but last year, when OSU had JT fucking Barrett .... the problem was OSU didn't have enough passing.....

Now...

OSU just threw for 455

....

Not enough rushing

Just got home, and two comments:

1) the refs sucked

2) don't eat at the campus Wendys after the game, they had morons behind the counter. Big backlog, long wait, and most orders were screwed up.

The good news is the game was a

But... OSU didn't run well enough

:shake:
Dobbins had 82 yards rushing, Weber had 70. Seems quite serviceable in a game which involved four hundred fifty five passing yards. The one knock is the YPC was on the low side, but still 152 rushing yards between the two... Dobbins averaged 3.2 and Weber 5.4
