No harm done, let's go O!!!!

 

[Jake]

This is a good, not great team. Mediocre offense and a defense that gets gashed by the run.

Youngest team in FBS. We all forget that sometimes, including myself.

 

[OSU_Buckguy]

one thing i thought we'd get with urban meyer as coach is a squad that attempts to and sells out for the blocked punt. this is not at all the case, though.

 

[AuTX Buckeye]

I wonder when urban said he wanted more Run/Pass option. If beck and warriner didn't just hear run option

 

[Buckeneye]

Prior to this year, we rarely ever called the speed option. Why are we starting now??

It's a solid call against a team collapsing on the interior read. My beef is when you force the call on early downs against a defense with safeties in the box and spilling outside.
Doesn't help that I still have flashbacks of JT vs scUM 2 years ago. You never know what can happen when you run your QB.

 

[SEREbuckeye]

Defensive backs are all looking back that drive wanting to make a pick. Coombs must have got in their ass!

Because the offensive braintrust is so uncomfortable with a passing game that they will resort to calling anything else.

1st down - belly dive

2nd down - option

3rd down - pass play for 5 yards to a hitch or curl route....

prove me wrong again please

Kinda shitty when you are unbelievably relieved that the punt went OB instead of your returner fair catching it.....

I'd love to see Weber nd Samuel takes us on an 83 yard drive here. Feed these guys the rock consistently and force PSU to make great plays at LOS. Time to stop fucking around. Make them feel us....

 

[Telekinesis]

LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

End them!

Totally, it's easy to forget. I'm hoping they drop after this and just focus on getting better. Maybe get a chip on their shoulder.

 

[TampaBuckeyes]

Fire Beck

Damnit, who let Beck out? Need to send him out recruiting on game days.

That's been the case ever since the very moment his celebrated never-lost-with-a-punt-block streak was broken.

1974, back when Sandusky first started raping boys.
