Game Thread THE GAME, 11/25/17 @ 12:00 ET (FOX)

[Elephant]

On first down, how about giving it to the RB and letting them do their thing, instead of running a WR or the QB.

Huge difference trying to get first downs 2 and short compared to 2nd and forever. Even the shitty teams can play defense then. Barrett has low odds going against a third and long every drive.

Can we all finally agree that Beck wasn't the problem?

 

[buckeyes_rock]

So nice to see we brought the same pathetic team we brought to Iowa. How do you start 3 straight series with a play for a loss to open the game? Just riduculous...

Weak
Soft
Small
Slow

Damned if it doesn't sound like my sex life right now

We have NEGATIVE yards for the 1st quarter.

 

[buckmouse]

Does the word tackle ring a bell??

 

[kujirakira]

At least 8 missed tackles in the 1st quarter.

There were probably 8 missed tackles just on that punt. Ridiculous.

 

[NFBuck]

This might seem like a rash statement, but it's been building for two years...I think Urban has lost it. There's still time to turn it around, but this team has zero life in the biggest game of the year. This is now a trend.

 

[HorseshoeFetish]

"We haven't seen that all year" words that drive me fucking nuts. This team better adjust and do it quick.

 

[Mike80]

We have NEGATIVE yards for the 1st quarter.

If they get to 100 yards for the entire game I'll be shocked.

 

[Woody1968]

Dunno which is worse. This game so far or redoing A Christmas Story live...

 

[MDino51]

Oh and don’t worry, according to coach the game is already too far gone to go back to running. We have proof he is thinking this way based on the past

 

[OregonBuckeye]

Jon Cooper....commits the hold and then whiffs on the tackle, too. SAD!

Can't expect him to play well in this game with that name

 

[buckeyboy]

WTF is going on with tackling? The OSU offensive line is an open door.

It doesn't help if JT holds the ball for seven seconds.

 

[SloopyHangOn]

It's too bad we're already down by 30 points in the 4th quarter. Otherwise this game might be salvageable.
