Game Thread Ohio State 27, Iowa 24 (final, OT, 11/14/09) - Rose Bowl bound!!!

[TooTall]

Thank you, coach Ferentz..

No shit.. Just bailed OSU out. Buckeyes were back on their heels too.

 

[Drubuck]

WOW!!!!!!!!

 

[Boilers Fan]

As a person with no stake in this game, what the hell is with the playcalling at the end here? Both teams playing not to lose or something? Go for the damn win! Iowa only needed like 40 yards to get in field goal range.

 

[Jake]

Looks like Iowa is playing not to lose as well...

...but they didn't do it with a 7 point lead and the ball in opponent's territory.

Now it's anybody's game.

Well, as long as we score TD's I like our chances in OT.

 

[Rookie]

3rd and 5 and he throws to the running back in the flat with two backers covering him. It's a tie ball game you have two timeouts left and you don't take the shot for the first down? I'm sorry pryor has played a wonderful game running and passing until that exact point. I'm sure he'll bounce back in Ot, but I just don't get that.

 

[JCOSU86]

Lets go boys. I like our D's chances better with a short field.

I wish I had your optimism. A lot of missed tackles and plain just not finishing plays.

 

[NFBuck]

Never shoulda come to this.

 

[Best Buckeye]

...but they didn't do it with a 7 point lead and the ball in opponent's territory.

Now it's anybody's game.

No, it's not anybody's game. we will win this game.

 

[BuckNut65]

If we lose this today it is 100% on the coaching staff

 

[cjmik_75]

I'm at a loss :(

ESPN.com is still showing almost 8 minutes left in the game. What the fuck are they doing? This kind of intense game going on, the front page stories all night are about this game, and they're this far behind?

 

[scarletngray]

Cant believe this!!

Well, I guess we can't expect it to be easy.

OVERTIME BOYS - LET'S GO BUCKS!! STEP UP AND MAKE A PLAY TO WIN THIS THING!!!

OUR HOUSE.......OUR CHAMPIONSHIP.........OUR ROSES......OUR DESTINY!!

DO IT!!

:osu:

That's not all on him man.

I actually understand it. On the previous drive Vanderburg did throw essentially 2 picks and got bailed out.
