Game Thread Ohio State 3, Southern Cal 35 (Sept. 13)

Well, I have to admit I'm a bit stunned the game has turned into what everyone around the country said it would be. We've been pretty outclassed tonight. A lot of mistakes and penalties...but you have to be good enough to overcome them, and we clearly aren't. The sad thing is that it's been a lot of mistakes in our veteran players...from Boone, to Boeckman, to Animal to whoever. It's very deflating to say the least. My boss is from LA so....this is gonna be rough on Monday. Rose Bowl still in sight though.

Man it's tough to keep a positive outlook right now.

GO BUCKS! Let's turn this thing around.

Those are the breaks Tibs. And this game has been a lot closer, at least early on, than the score indicates....

So was last year's National Championship game and we still got crucified by the press....

Saine was 3 yards away from that throw when it was called intentional grounding.

 

[Steve19]

Todd is really taking a lot of abuse.

 

[Gothmog8]

O-Line?

There is APB out for your protection..

 

[CookyPuss]

Time to get Todd out of there. He's going to be killed.....

I don't get it. One guy is putting up positive yards and the other negative.

Well, this one is reminding me of the game against LSU. A sure TD doesn't happen to keep it close early and they never catch up.

 

[Mike80]

and let the stupid penalties commence....

Well I hope the SEC is as good as advertised because I don't see USC losing.....

 

[BuckeyeMafia]

Good thing we get Troy next week.

We can't stop anything. WIDE OPEN.

 

[Popper252]

Wide open.

 

[Mike80]

WTF was that?

Dammit throw in the kids. This isn't worth destroying what confidence the upperclassmen have now....

 

[NFBuck]

Something tells me that we'll see TP as starting QB next week.

I hate QB controversies, but I think it's hard to not imagine one right now. Todd just hasn't taken the next step. He has looked like a very average QB the last 7 games he played. Really unfortunate, but that's where we are.

Todd's confidence is going to be irreparably, permanently damaged if he is left in this game.

I think it may already be.

As Woody would say.. a true soul cleansing

This team has given up.

I think we were fooling ourselves this offseason. :(

Wow.
