Game Thread Kent State at tOSU, Sept. 19th, 12pm ET, FOX

Cardale is an arrogant a$$. He made plenty of mistakes when he was behind Center. And only played because of injuries to other QBs.

I've never seen him as arrogant. But he does know when a QB ain't it, and he found out he ain't it. I enjoyed his run in the B1G leading us to a Natty though.

I never saw him as arrogant either. In fact, he even came back his Senior year to demonstrate the importance of graduating. Hey, there were injuries and when the coaches said "next man up"; he stepped up and delivered big time. He's in a very select Ohio State QB group that includes Rex Kern, Craig Krenzel, and Will Howard.

Regardless, he left his mark on both Ohio State football and an Alabama safety in a very positive way:

Riley Pettijohn, Will Smith Jr. and Jeremiah Smith Lead Pro Football Focus' Highest-Graded Ohio State Players Against Kent State

Offensive Line​

Joshua Padilla: 82.6 (15 snaps)
Gabe VanSickle: 75.5 (48 snaps)
Sam Greer: 70.6 (10 snaps)
Austin Siereveld: 70.2 (48 snaps)
Ian Moore: 69.8 (48 snaps)
Max Riley: 68.0 (18 snaps)
Luke Montgomery: 66.7 (48 snaps)
Carson Hinzman: 66.0 (48 snaps)
Carter Lowe: 63.3 (18 snaps)
Mason Wilhelm: 60.0 (3 snaps)
Jake Cook: 55.3 (29 snaps)
Deontae Armstrong: 55.2 (8 snaps)

Just sayin': I'm surprised to see three 2nd team OLs (Padilla, Greer, and VanSickle) had higher grades than the four usual starters (Siereveld, Moore, Montgomery, and Hinzman). The OL still has to be a "work in progress".

That seems right. We all know he didn’t play a perfect game, maybe not even a great game, but he went 18-22 for 240 yards and 2 TDs with no picks. From the reaction online, you’d think he was the 2nd coming of Joe Bauserman vs Nebraska. He was good, maybe even very good. There are things he needs to do better, but there is a LOT that he’s doing very well.
