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

[Fungo Squiggly]

In regards to stopping big plays, the longest play OSU allowed this year was the 85 yard pass against Navy. The 2nd longest has been 33 yards, a catch by Nick Toon for Wisconsin that I believe was a catch and run. 3rd was a 31 yarder by Graham Zug that was definitely a catch and run. No one has had much success throwing downfield against OSU and I don't expect that to change this week. No other plays all season (passing or running) in excess of 30 yards against this defense.

Color me very impressed with Vandenburg. VERY impressed.

Let's get some pressure on him next time, fellas.

On the plus side, Pryor is completing the throws he's being asked to make.

TE sighting...

 

[Drubuck]

Using the te I like it.

Glad Ballard is getting some looks. Any D's weakness is a TE's ability to catch the ball.

Crossing pattern to the tight end!

 

[CentralMOBuck]

Keep it going boys. Dane clears out the area and Ballard slips under. Nice.
