Game Thread Ohio State vs Penn State, 10/28/17 @ 3:30 ET (FOX)



Seems much more relaxed than Monday. Really reminds me of 2014 pre-Sparty. Okay, I'm ready. BRING IT!!!! :urban2: :oh:
Agreed. Hearing him say he feels better going into this game than in the Oklahoma game definitely puts my mind a little at ease. It should be obvious to feel better about your team at this point in the season, versus the second week of the season, but like you said, Urban has some confidence in his demeanor. I think they know just how to attack Penn State this season. And obviously not letting special teams dictate the outcome has a lot to do with that.

I’m seriously looking forward to this game!

If it becomes a game of depth; if injuries come into play, I gotta like the experience our twos, threes and fours have picked up. I liked the deception Penn State used - direct snaps to Sasquatch - option plays, but Michigan stopped their success in the second and third quarters and if Michigan can do that, the Bucks can double it.

"I got a peaceful, easy feelin'
I know the bucks won't let me down,
'cause they're all takin' Sasquatch
to the ground."

Food for thought... Which shows that we may actually know more about OSU then Ped.

PED D- Toughest challenge when it comes to scoring points 81st in Iowa

PED O- Toughest challenge came from Iowa at 20th

OSU O- Toughest Defense in regards to points allowed 36th

OSU D- Toughest Offense faced 7th in scoring

Average PED rank- roughly 50

Average OSU rank- roughly 20

Bottom line we've played four opponents who's offenses were better then what PSU has seen. PED has faced two better defenses in Iowa/Scum then our best (Army) but after that we capture the next 2 of the next 3 (tied 3 for 3 when spanning first 6).

The Ohio State defense has been tested by a top performing offense already (better then ped) and the difference between our best defense faced is not nearly as great as the best offense they have faced. We know a great deal more about our defense they do theirs and you could say they slightly know more about their offense then we do ours. We have seen a better offense but not a better defense then Ped, but this is their stiffest competition on either side of the ball. Overall We probably know a little bit more then they do about the respective teams IMO.

Make no mistake about it Trace is not Baker Mayfield. No where as accurate or the decision maker that Baker is, and Baker doesn't scramble he distributes. We got hurt by Baker because he distributed and not because he went out and was a one man show.

IMO we don't even need injuries we just have to wear them down with our rotation. If we bring the run with Jk, Weber and JT (in that order!!) I really think we will find huge chunks later in the game if we continue to go to it. Just have to be patient with it
