After re-watching the game my biggest takeaway is the same as when I watched it live........1:21 left in the first half, own 6, down 14-6 vs the best passing attack in the country (that had 2 timeouts)-and you don’t run the clock out??????? Huge lapse of basic situational awareness on Wash’s staff.

Against our defense is it that surprising? I would've tried to score too.

That and, upon re-watch, just how dominant OSU was for the first 3 quarters.

UW was down 28-3 and hadn't yet even reached the freaking Red Zone as the 4th started.

Just had lunch with some guys from work. Oh the fun of being a displaced Buckeye. Discussion points:
-Urban was so much worse of a liar than Tressel ever was
-Urban will be back coaching in a year
-Wait til next year when we learn what it's like to be mediocre again
- (my personal favorite) Haskins will never be a decent NFL QB because he can't take a hit.

It's like trying to debate politics...doesn't matter what I say...

I hear you, trust me. Down here in Florida... forget about it.

What a great time!!! Although, I did miss the even mildest trash of talk on BP :love:. We sat with the most polite Buckeye fans I've ever met in my life. Which, to some people would be a plus... I guess I've gotten too used to this place.

-Definitely got some cardio as we opted not to take the shuttle & I guess they weren't running after (staff seemed confused about that).

-Not the greatest seats in the world but just being there was enough!!! Instead of selling crap souvenirs, they'd make much more off binoculars IMO.

-Went through a lot of emotions during the game (excitement, disappointment-- started off very meh, fear, excitement again & finally sadness/pride)

-We ended up extending our stay by 2 days b/c we were having so much fun. Went to a small (100 ppl) Upright Citizens Brigade show hosted by Bob Odenkirk from 'Breaking Bad' & 'Better Call Saul'. He was super nice & wanted to hear all about the game. Some UW fans were there & were super cool. Actually, all the UW fans we met were very congratulatory.

-Here's some pics:

EDIT: Not sure why, but the last one had the Rose Bowl in the background. Not showing up.

Is there any way that we can draw this puppy-scratcher out until the 2019 kickoff?
I'm feeling withdrawal already.
Maybe it's because I haven't had a wee drop o' the creature today.

I hear you. After the game, I said to some UW fans I wished there were 3 games for the Rose Bowl to go along with the events. A week long type of thing. It just went so fast. Too bad it wasn't on FOX. :)

Yep. Finally rewatched after avoiding because of how angry I was at the end.

Encapsulated the 2018 season. Some beautiful passes, glimpses of dominance, and then a shambolic 4th Q tripping to the goal line. Turned 42-17 into a 5 point win.

Also, Haskins had an average (for Haskins) performance. Great first half, below average 2nd half. Missed some chunk yardage throws, and had at least one awful zone read. Washington obviously did have something to do with this though.
