Game Thread Ohio State @ Indiana, 08/31/17 @ 8:00 ET (ESPN)

[Dryden]

Herbstreit went from, "This is the best offense Ohio State will face all season" to "Next week Ohio State will have a REAL test," in one quarter.

43-7 since I left the bar. Lesson learned. Sorry about the undue stress, folks.

It will be a sacrifice, but you do realize that you'll have to leave the bar early every game now for the rest of the season?

All's well that ends well.

 

[NFBuck]

Allowed them to surpass 15 yards rushing. Shitty.

A win is a win. Now go and don't fuck up the rest of your schedule, Hoosiers (what the fuck even is a Hoosier?).

Get some of that slop cleaned up before next weekend, because we'll be in a deep hole too fast to climb out of if they don't.

 

[Gothmog8]

Waiting for the "OSU struggled against Indiana in the opening week" headlines. And Indiana could probably whoop all the other opening losers this week. Suck it.

 

[buckeyemania11]

A conference road game to open the year is tough. Even if its an average team like Indiana. Feeling pretty confident with how the adjusted in the 2nd half after that mess of a 1st half. 2nd Half Barrett for the rest of the year would be great

 

[TooTall]

I really hope Barrett shook off any of the risidual rust he had on his arm from the last two season's of fuckery on offense. I'm really pulling for him, but that first half was a perfect summary of how his last two seasons have gone.

 

[ShowMeBuck]

Chase Young looks like he ate an 8 year old that wandered onto the sidelines.

 

[LostLassie]

Plus side: for the youngins especially, they've already had a taste of hostile environment, momentum going against them, coming from behind, etc. Might be a useful inoculation against adversity later in the season.

 

[BuckeyeNation27]

I have never been so pissed off and stressed during an ass whooping

seriously

oddest game ever

It's like the inverse penn st game

All's well that ends well.

Apologies for the freak out earlier.

Nah, I just need to stay away from bars (and other people) instead.

Umm, not so sure. May be like not changing your socks while you're on a winning streak.
