Game Thread Ohio State vs Oklahoma, 09/09/17 @ 7:30 ET (ABC)

[Dryden]

Averaging 5.4 yards per rush attempt (and that includes sacks) so they go away from the run for two straight series.

Did I miss an entire possession in two minutes? And OU is already about to score. Wtf.

 

[matt_thatsme]

Not looking back for the ball again.

 

[NFBuck]

it's still baseball season tho

Tribe's shitty!

 

[Buckeyebred97]

We'll thats ball game. So much for the B12 not playing any defense. Is JT just this bad or are the receivers dropping everything? I didn't get to watch much of it at all. (Time difference where I'm at)

 

[Fungo Squiggly]

That's a catch. Wish our receivers could make a catch.

You mean the JT who couldn't move the ball against MSU, Northwestern, Penn St, Mich, Clemson last year? He was terrible most of the last half of last year and has picked up where he left off this year. Just a very limited QB who can't get the ball where it needs to be w/any consistency against defenses who aren't lousy. Not sure why OSU is wasting this year with him as the starter... time to start developing the future because he's just not good enough to win a nat'l championship.

2014 MSU was a stellar D.
Unfortunately i think injury and QB controversy... that ship has sailed and he's lost 'it'.

This was all typed before the that INT. Fuck this offense. This is a god damn joke. All the talent we have on O and this is the result? Fuck this.

I have thought since Meyer got here that the biggest problem I have seen is that they are afraid to run the plays against Wisconsin and Penn State that they run against Bowling Green and Buffalo. It's like they have 2 different offenses, one free and clear and one for games they are afraid to lose

 

[Jake]

That's a catch, unfortunately.

 

[TampaBuckeyes]

bench his ass

Bench the playbook.

 

[UpNorth_Buckeye]

That's a catch

I hate to say it, but this kinda feels like the 2007-2010 stretch JT had - every year had 10 wins and that's great, but that was all it was. They never quite were national-title worthy (and usually got exposed like they did tonight) but there was a hard floor there too.

I think we'll find a hard floor of 9-10 wins but I don't expect we'll see lightning in a bottle like 2014 again anytime soon...

Don't ever feel like those JT teams had the talent we had the last two years.

 

[youra6]

That's a catch. Wish our receivers could make a catch.

Looked like his leg hit out of bounds first

 

[Bucklion]

Its not over until 0:00

So you're saying there's a chance...

 

[AuTX Buckeye]

Time to scrap the "urban Meyer" offense. Let Kevin Wilson install HIS offense
