Game Thread Maryland at tOSU, Sat. Oct. 10th, 4:15 pm ET, BTN


Ill always take an OSU W

Totally agree! Took my 7 and 10 year old boys and we sat in A deck until Carmen Ohio was over. Stadium was maybe 60% capacity after halftime. Soft crowd
Love that you kept your boys there until Carmen! Thats the type of thing that creates lifelong memories. They get to see one of the greatest catches in CFB history, a blowout win by the Bucks, some great seats and finish the day with Carmen.

A tradition I am so grateful to pass on to the next generation. I have told my boys multiple times this season they’re watching a legend and they’ll remember for the rest of their lives.

Maybe they read what the newsies write? Watch the point spread? Listen to the news? Could be all of the above, or none of the above. Probably not alot of anticipation, except maybe the 2's, 3's or 4's of getting some PT. A thought, maybe the coaches level of intensity.

Just a few quick notes.....

It's sort of amazing that Maryland was able to score 16 points given that the Buckeye defense held the Terps to 146 yards of total offense on 53 plays (average of 2.75 yards per play); 12 of 25 passing (.480); 3 of 13 (.231) on third and fourth down conversions; and forced seven punts. Maryland scored a field goal on a short-field after a fumble recovery and a touchdown on a pick six; their only legit scoring drive was 11-plays, 75-yards for a touchdown that was assisted by four Buckeye penalties for 30 yards, including a crucial roughing the passer flag after a third down incompletion.

On the other hand, it's sort of amazing that the Buckeyes were able to score 45 points given that the offense had a pair of turnovers and a16-play, 72-yard touchdown drive that ate up ten minutes of clock (that's 17% of the game on one drive); and Jeremiah Smith had only four receptions for 93 yards (but two touchdowns, 33 yards and 40 yards). Lead tailbacks Bo Jackson and Ja'Kobi Jackson had 37 carries for 178 yards (4.8 average) and two touchdowns (both by Bo) behind a patchwork offensive line.

If the Buckeyes were fully healthy and brought their A game, the final score would've probably been more like 59-0.
