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

[TooTall]

Everyone calling for JT's starting job, have justified reasons to do so. Hardly bashing the guy, but he just isn't getting the job done..

 

[NFBuck]

I respect Barrett and feel for him, but he needs to sit. Todd Boeckman-esque

Kills me to say it, but I totally agree.

 

[Bestbuck36]

That last play is a microcosm of this offense right now

 

[Poe McKnoe]

We wouldn't have won a championship in '14 if Barrett hadn't gotten hurt.

There, I said it.

As long as we're burning this down, I agree

 

[BuckeyeMafia]

Dink and Dunk WTF!

It's what OU is willing to give up with an 18 point lead.

 

[bukIpower]

We need to find an answer at QB...hate it for JT but at this point he needs to do what he can for this team and that's best served coaching up two kids behind him

 

[Clarity]

Where is the "Greatest Ever D Line" ? I guess with the right game plan, it does not matter...

I think they had a fair game. Baker has terrific presence, vision, and a very quick release. He's a baller.

 

[Onebuckfan]

D line ran out of gas and Baker Worley and the safeties were MIA. E Smith is Slow

 

[redguard117]

y'all bashing JT are fucking outrageous rn

You really think playing JT gives us the best chance to win this game?

 

[Systems_id]

I doubt he benches JT. I think he should bench him next week since the Army D is probably what a young QB like Haskins needs to get going.

He honestly needs to. For as much crap as I've given the defense tonight, they've held up their end of the bargain more or less. If the score holds they'll only have given up one more TD than last year despite replacing the entire secondary. The offense has been a complete no show for the most part. Just awful.

 

[OregonBuckeye]

he's not gaudy and the offense has disappointed, but it's pretty obvious the major problem is the defensive 2nd level and the d-backfield

He had 25 yards passing in the first half. He is a major liability. So is the secondary

 

[Mike80]

We wouldn't have won a championship in '14 if Barrett hadn't gotten hurt.

There, I said it.

Nope - because 59-0 doesn't happen and they wouldn't have made the playoffs with anything less than that....

 

[Fungo Squiggly]

There was one.

Hooray!

 

[UrbanBuckeye]

Yeah, to simplify it he simply can't do what good QBs do. Accuracy, anticipation, precision and feel... lacking. He's like a magic marker for a job that requires a pen, a box cutter instead of a scalpel.

Exactly. My husband and I were just talking about how if he played in the Natty we don't think the outcome would've been the same.

 

[Bestbuck36]

These over the middle plays need to be ran all of the damn time, not just in desperation.
