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

[HorseshoeFetish]

Check out this little tidbit, former VA Tech quarterback Michael Brewer (who was part of OSU's only loss in 2014) was backed up by Baker Mayfield at Lake Travis HS in Austin. Uh-oh! I since another home loss at night coming for you Buckeyes!

I could pop a microdot and not imagine that.

It's UTEP lol... that's the point

I know, but that's about as bland as pointing out just one sack by OU vs. UTEP. We played mostly backups after 1 half.

 

[RCSooner1974]

And besides, Indiana is about as relevant as Kansas State or Iowa State in football. I suppose giving up more than 400 yards passing was not a stellar defensive performance like OU's today vs. mighty UTEP, right? I mean seriously.

 

[HorseshoeFetish]

Well, OU's defense held UTEP's starting QB to only 56 yards passing. How's that for starters?

tOSU's 23 men defensive line only allowed 17 yards rushing for the entire IU team.

Doesn't matter... your back ups should be better then theirs. If you don't get pressure on JT it's over baby.

If you shut down Andrews, you'll pay the price because freshman Grant Calcaterra's a manchild.

6'3 240 and fails to outrun utep safeties is truly an unstoppable force.

Glad to see you're back to the YouTube comment approach to the board. Remember when you used to suppress these taunts?

 

[RCSooner1974]

IU's too one-dimensional, and mediocre, on offense. Yes, you gave up just 17 yards rushing...but 420 yards passing!

Well with Obo and Caleb bookending the pass rush, there's no reason to worry my friend!

I don't blame you for thinking how you think but that IU team has 3 receivers better then OU has. Not a better QB but easily much better skill then OU.

So how do IU's receivers match up athletically to guys like Mark Andrews, Jeff Mead, Jeff Badet, Marquise Brown, and Cedarian Lamb???

If you couldn't get home last year in your house and against the worst tackles we have fielded in OSU history then you won't be getting home on JT next Saturday.

See there's a theme here... you guys struggle getting to the QB and if you start bringing lots of pressure that just makes it easier on us.

Btw that rush offense you couldn't hold under 300 last year? Yep return 4 linemen plus both the QB and RB responsible for the damage. Not to mention you haven't met Mr Dobbins

If we had beat Tulsa like 48-3 or something would you as confident?

You guys tell me if any of IU's receivers can make catches like this:

Well, Tom Herman gave you the perfect blueprint on how to beat OU last year after our loss at UH. This year is much different, I promise you amigo.

OU is riding momentum while on the nation's longest win streak right now. Beware the Sooner Schooner. Beware!

Dude I can name off our depth chart as well.. bottom line is out of those names only 1 is a proven threat.

I notice you didn't mention your backs which indicates to me you aren't confident in running the ball (which you shouldn't be considering you didn't even hit 200 today). You won't beat osu without balance.
