Speaking of poor coverage, from the ESPN recap:

"[OSU] had a bad punting day"

3/3 punts pinned inside the 20 not good enough for them? Someone decided looking at the average yards was good enough journalism for them. Shocking, I know...

The column was probably from the same guy who said at the end of the game (this was on ESPN2) that you can't win with a quarterback only completing 11 passes all game and that he was accounting for OSU's struggling offense, haha.

That was Todd McShay and he also blasted Ohio State for the Posey pass.

in short, he probably barely watched the highlights and chances are he WASN'T the idiot that wrote the recap.

McShay is an asshat. Its not like we ran a double reverse pass in the 4th quarter up 40 points. I thought it was a great play. Puts Terrelle on film going out for a pass. future opponents will have to account for him out of the backfield which may open up a running lane for the wide receiver coming around on the reverse.

They can run that the other way with Dane throwing the pass to Pryor or Posey. I wonder if we'll see it again?

Haven't watched the tape yet, but I was really impressed with NMSU's punter. That rollout punt was one of the most imprsesive punts I've ever seen.

Agreed but with a caviat- I think there the OSU player (Torrence?) didn't realize that this year you can hit the punter who is doing a rugby kick. I think the angle was chosen to be conservative and avoid contact.
