Game Thread Ohio State vs Northwestern, 10/29/16, 3:30pm ET ESPN/WatchESPN

Outscored 7-0 at home in the third quarter by fucking Northwestern...

Play clock is under 10 almost every snap.

This is what baffles me. They're taking forever to make play calls, and then JT is checking and adjusting with individuals on the line, taking it under 5 a lot of the time. Why? What is the holdup with the plays?

Look on the bright side fellas. The pass blocking is much better than it was last weekend!

This offense is predicated on running the ball. If we can't do that consistently everything becomes a struggle.

Need to blow some guys off the ball and open holes. It's not happening nearly enough.

Weber, whom I really like, seems to get ankle tackled an inordinate amount of the time. I wonder if there is some coaching/experience that could help counteract some of that.

I'm pretty sure it is triangle or analog stick right double tap to the outside.

This.

It's almost as if the most important part of your offense is the OL.

What took you so long.....

Maybe I should just ban his ass right before kickoff of each game and save myself the trouble...

But the running play calls suck....why run Samuel up the middle, seriously why? We run the same fucking plays week in and week out. At this point I don't know if it is stupidity or stubborness....

I think it was @RobotParty who mentioned that this was what Warriner did at Kansas. They let the defense line up and then make adjustments that are relayed down to the QB. Then the QB makes those adjustments. But it's taking forever and isn't working. Just seems to be leading to a sleepy offense.

How do I get rid of the [Mark May] filter?

I'm pretty sure that one is permanent.

This team is the reason for liquid medication.

Hard to do when teams sell out against it
