A couple of things as I'm rewatching the game. First, Tyler Moeller is going to have an incredible year. Unlike Chekwa and the rest of the secondary, he doesn't wait for the offensive player to come to him, he's running you over and good luck getting out of the way fast enough to avoid it.
As I just mentioned, didn't like the way the secondary played. Coverage issues aside, they didn't seem aggressive in run support (other than Hines). Rather than throwing off the WR, they seemed to be dancing with them waiting for the ball carrier to come to them. This could be a problem next week. Hopefully will be corrected.
Larrimore also had a helluva game, and as someone here mentioned, he doesn't get nearly enough love, so here's some. Kid is a black hole at DT and just eats up everything that comes near him.
Some nitpicking I know. Overall, thought we played really well. In particular, liked Tressel's attitude. Especially in the post game when he referenced the last drive the 1st team had, up 42-7 and said that he wished we would've taken it down and scored. I get the coach speak, but it reveals a more aggressive attitude to putting away a team that I don't know we've always had under Tress. This helps to develop the ability to finish teams, which WILL come in handy often this year.
Can't wait to see this team take the field against Da U. I don't know what to think of them, since they played an FCS team and a mediocre one at that. I can't help but think of their bowl game and how Wisky manhandled them. I gotta believe we'll be able to do the same. I also have to believe that the players don't believe that.
GO BUCKS!!!!!
