You have to call a conservative game when your QB has no time to pass... USC had 2-3 people in Boeckman's face every time he dropped back, and when he was in the game they pinned their ears back and threw everything but the kitchen sink at him.

It wasn't like that from the start though, From the first drive of the game he was doing that stuff.

It was strange, but I think I had a slight out-of-body experience during this game.

I found myself laughing for some reason, because now I am not even shocked at this type of result during the big games.

Something ain't quite right.

....

I'm at a loss for words, so I can't really offer any insight as to what is going on. Just regroup and be ready next week, Buckeyes! The season is long.

BS. You called all of those rolled pockets, fake shovel passes, misdirection looks, and pryor literally rotating in every other play? Not buying it.

All that is just another way of running the ball, Pryor shouldn't have been rotating every other play once he got in the groove of things....If your going to use him, Let him go on the 3rd downs...Not 2nd...What sense does that make?


And they might have been better, But there's no way in hell we should of gotten dominated like that.

I'm talking about Todd Boeckman's FREQUENT rolled pockets, misdirection plays, and numerous unusual passing looks. I don't remember them rolling the pocket much for Pryor.

The announcers and even the halftime crew highlighted the different looks Tressel was presenting to break tendencies... it was pretty much impossible to ignore.

Unless ignoring the game AND analysis helps to fuel your rants, which seems to be the case.

I was very dissapointed in special teams play today. Our return game didn't look improved at all and Small needs to fair catch it to avoid taking a lot of hits, and in addition to that Pretorious missed a kick.

Hopefully they can improve from this because as long as Beanie is injured we need excellent special teams play.

The 1996 offense was held without a TD in a game? I remember the 1996 offense being AMAZING!

This is why beating Michigan is so important. Don't forget the past. This is why I love Jim Tressel. 6-1 against Michigan.

We only mustered up 3 field goals in The Game in 1996. That offense was so much better than that. Again...another reason to hate Michigan. And be happy they lost today.

Fuck the sun rising tommorrow. Fuck "next year".

The one, ONE constant I can always fall back on in a situation such as this is...

I FUCKING HATE MICHIGAN. Fuck them. I overheard one dipshit tonight say "this is the BIGGEST game of the year". I checked him with the quickness. I don't give a good goddamn what Mark May, ESPN, or any other person outside of Buckeye fandom has to say. I know that when I said I'd trade every season's every win to beat TSUN that same year, I fucking meant it. These games let fans know where they stand nationally, but that's not what's most important to me.

I really thought we'd win. We didn't. So the fuck what? I want to beat TSUN more than ever this year. I can't fucking wait.

If you can't handle the shit like this, hop off the bandwaggon now. I could use the leg room.

GO BUCKS! FUCK MICHIGAN!

So i guess i haven't seen this type of performance against a top ranked team before? No the sky is not falling, But our respect and credibility sure is taking a dramastic hit.

Not with anyone that matters. The next time we beat one of these fuckheads, all who were talking shit will come crawling back.

Oh, and congrats USC. You played lights out tonight. You deserve the #1 ranking as far as I can fucking tell.
