FrancisSoyer;1785123; said:Absolutely. Tressel Ball is beautiful when properly executed. I prefer it over the spread type offense to be honest. But the line, receivers and running backs have to execute to perfection and that doesn't seem to be happening right now. With Pryor a bit gimpy I'll bet a lot of emphasis is put on those things the next few weeks.
I don't know if this should be posted here or in the O line discussion thread, but it seams that the line loose a bit of focus when TP is out there in full strength. Often, when TP takes off running, it's toward the direction of a missed block (creating the hole). He makes the D player miss, then takes off in that direction.
I think the line looses a bit of focus when TP is on his game because the results are great 9 times out of 10 no matter what they do (within reason). When they have to block their asses off or we have a real chance of loosing, then you see the talent that we all know they have (like the 2nd half of this game and the last 4 big ten games last year).
