Ultra conservative like that is exactly how you lose this game

 

[Telekinesis]

Horrible decision right there. Do not understand that at all. Playing MSU's game right now.

Dantonio must slip something into Meyer's drink the night before these games. Something about Sparty just causes Meyer to lose his mind.

 

[NFBuck]

So, the game plan is run JT into the ground?

 

[billmac91]

Horrible half....really enough blame to share with everyone. Play calling is terrible, too much respect for opponent on multiple fronts, and just a lack of execution in a couple areas.

Really disappointing.....

#predictable

that's all I'm gonna say about that first half

 

[Wingate1217]

I'm going to protest peacefully by burning things and looting stores

Get me some Skittles, will ya??

 

[youra6]

You can't out Tressel Dantonio. Have we not learned anything from last year??

 

[UrbanBuckeye]

Oh good. Wisconsin looks like an NFL team against 3-7 Purdue. And we're tied.

Boy I won't lie guys we normally don't win games being played like this...Just like the PSU game in shitty weather we failed to take advantage of their miscues when we had the opportunities.

 

[Wingate1217]

don't care much for the clock usage there. 1:40 on the clock you should at least shoot for a field goal imo. but thats just me...

I think he was thinking, let's not do something stupid here and turn the ball over. We get the ball first in the second half. Let's hope that the offense makes adjustments and we score at will in the next half....

This is exactly what it is. It's like the coaches watch the film but learn nothing and do the exact same shit that never works.

Clearly Meyer isn't liking what he's seeing by the weather and the team right now. Most likely worried about the teams attutude and the possibility of a turnover. The ball has slipped out by both teams multiple times and a blocked/missed FG is likely.

Smart move to take it into halftime and talk with his guys.
