Agreed. Maybe he got him for going high?

That's the toughest I've seen Martinez run since he was a Frosh.

Yeah on the replay they just showed Roby went too high...:(

 

[Deety]

Almost looked as though the runner was pulled down BY his griip on the facemask.

 

[Gothmog8]

kinda looked like he stepped OB.. but guess they dont review that stuff.

 

[alexhortdog95]

And how was that roughing the passer on Roby??? What rubbish

I think he called it up high.

I agree, I probably wouldn't have called it either - that's just football.

 

[1926Buckeyes]

Awful tackling. No idea why they keep trying to bump the runner instead of wrapping him up. This has gone on for long enough. It's not rocket science and yet they keep doing it.

I'm not blaming the refs because our defense looks worse than dogshit, but these refs can go fuck themselves. Pull your heads out of your asses and watch the game.

 

[scarletmike]

I don't understand how they suddenly regress to this crap bump tackling and just not wrapping up, and it always seems to happen close to the goal line.

 

[scarletngray]

We are playing like Jekel and Hyde tonight

 

[shiznit7]

What I don't understand is how the D got so bad in the past two years. Was Heacock the one responsible for teaching technique? Because it's blatantly obvious that Fickell hasn't taught the young ones how to actually wrap up.

goddammit maxbuck, now ain't the time.....

Maxbuck?!

Come on, man. I'd rather you call me motherfucker, asshole, or shithead than that.

Ugh...this game is definitely a roller coaster so far. Lots of ups and downs.

 

[OhioState001]

We can tackle Bell but not Martinez?

Guys - it's a competitive game, fellas. You guys gigged us for like 80 yards on the last series.

This is how I thought this one would go.

As long as there isn't a freaking blowout, I'm good.

 

[buckeyes_rock]

This next offensive possession is huge. This game has been all about the momentum and the Bucks have got to swing it again now...love to see a nice long drive here...

The question is whether it's the players or the coaches.

Disgusting non-effort by Bennett there. Realize the 3 missed tackles were bad on that TD, but at least those players didn't have their hands on their hips just watching Martinez run by.
