DL continues to dominate and osu defends their own pick six. At least the Indiana wr had a hand in that.

I'm not sure I agree entirely yet. Guys have been in good Position most of the night.

But Lagow dropping balls in buckets and having physical receivers is tough work.

I honestly don't know that Lattimore or Conley is fairing much better tonight. We've gotten gashed by perfect throws and physical outside receivers. I'd put it more on scheme than player honestly. We need to be able to transition between man and zone, and disguise it well.

We came out showing our balls and going solely press man....and the countered it well. Now we are mixing in zone but it doesn't look natural....

We are in a chess match. Need JT and the offense to close strong.....Big drive right here.

Bingo. There were a few breakdowns or late reactions, but the coverage has been decent at worst. Phenomenal touch and strength.

That TD on ward was a perfect example. Pretty good technique, even came down through the football, but Cobb is a giant, grown man.

Also, just a bit of advice... Since Indiana has never been in Ohio State's position.. Probably not the best idea to chant "OVERRATED" with 4:30 to play in the third quarter. Don't get me wrong, the Bucks are absolutely overrated at this point in time, but from a motivational standpoint, it can do nothing but hurt yourselves chanting it THAT early in the game. :lol:
