THE GAME, tOSU at tCun, Sat. 11/25, 12pm ET, FOX

[ORD_Buckeye]

See that's why this year meant so much. Their best team in decades. But could wash away the filth.

Instead they got all the breaks we didn't and lost in a heart breaker. Instead we have their arrogant asses talking about adversity and how the cheating didn't matter. It's not fair to our kids but it is what it is and it's going to be fucking insufferable

The new year is going to bring so much joy. NCAA is going to nuke their program back to the stone age. Something is going to come on the criminal front from the FBI sniffing around. They're going to suffer two and a half years worth of vacated wins or forfeits. Simple Jim is going to humiliate them again as he desperately attempts to scamper off to the NFL ahead of the inevitable multi-year show cause. The adults will inevitably step in and send that jock-sniffing, smirking little cunt they call a university President out of town on a rail. Today stings, but justice is coming. Tick-tock, motherfuckers. The future is bright.

Look, they had a tight squad and they benefitted from things. Next year will make it all clear.

Disingenuous.

LOL… who cares with that.

Im done with the “revenge” and “OMG Payback!”

Until we win I will expect us to lose.

Day needs to go. He doesn’t know how to win the big games and obviously can’t recruit the personnel to get the job done I don’t want to got through another 12 years of a mediocre record against that team up north. He’s already down to nine years with no end in site.

 

[Captain Buckeye]

So what didn’t you understand. We made the mistakes and they didn’t. They did the same thing they did to us the last two years and we couldn’t do anything about it.

My apologies I read it wrong… I thought it said we didn’t make a mistake

 

[Merih]

Hu?

We threw two picks, one of which went for 7 and then missed a FG.

they=scUM in my post

Sure but it would all feel better if we kicked their asses back to their down years vs having the NCAA do it for us

It’s the NCAA, not holding my breath

Oh stop it.

He wins 11 out of 12 games every single year.

Problem is right now that 12th team is what’s standing between us and a championship.

It’s been something different every damn year guys.

2021- defense
2022- defense and running back
2023- quarterback play

We need to get ahead of 2024 and forcast what the issues will be. IMO it’ll be QB play and front 4 on defense.

So we had better go get a QB and a front 4 difference maker

I won’t subscribe to this for this game. This was all execution not play calling. Also we have stellar recruiting classes. If anything this is a bad analysis at QBrecruiting, which is Day’s fault.

I am not a homer. I call it as I see it. I am just pointing out the obvious. But you know what? You.. have been pointing to this game forever. Clearly you have a thing for it. I mean playing Western KY and you are mentioning MI. I get it. It's THE GAME. But damn, your life is limited.

I agree. We need a change somewhere. There is always cog out.

Like I said earlier, scapegoating is so popular because it is easy and fun.

McCord made the big mistake and JJ did not. But if that's all you saw today then you overlooked a lot. Special teams were outplayed and the defense gave up a score on every second half possession. It's hard to come from behind when that is happening.

The better team won, and that included McCarthy. But he also had help.

Yep, if we only had one of the groups make a mistake, we still probably would have won. Hell, I can't even blame McCord 100% for either of those picks. The first one, Marv quit on the play. The second we had 30 seconds left and were trying to drive the length of the field. I don't like it, but it is what it is. Our defense is better this year, and they kept it close, but they gave up some dumb first downs and that Corum TD after the injury was inexcusable. Special teams was poor. Traynum came to play, kid is a baller, but nobody else on the offense acted like they cared the first quarter, and by the time scUM scored, it was too late. Needed to hit them in the mouth, not smack them with a feather.

 

[sg86]

Disingenuous.

How?

He spends all of his time and energy waiting for shit to happen instead of making it happen. He calls passive games just waiting for the defense to make a mistake for him.

The only time he ever shows any emotion on the field is when he’s crying to referees for calls.

He’s a good human being. I don’t wish him any ill. But as a coach, he’s a coward and his cowardice breeds cowardly teams. There’s no fire or passion in any of his players or teams. Michigan comes out there and makes calls and executes like a team that wants to win the game and Ryan Day comes out and makes calls hoping the other team will fuck up for him.

This was the biggest game of the year and we showed absolutely nothing different than the same stagnant, stoic offense we did all year. There was no attempt at trick plays. There were no creative ways to get Tre the ball in the flat. Nothing.

We had a chance to try to score a TD and send them into the half deflated on a blown lead and he just tucked his tail, tried a long field goal that missed and gave the momentum right back to them going into halftime.

He’s a cowardly coach and he’s had every opportunity to stop being a cowardly coach and he always talks a bigger better game and then shows up and does the same shit as always.

How many times should we hope or expect a man to do something different when he has shown time and time and time and time again that he just will not ever do that.

Excuse me?

That really called for?

No one was beating them and after we passed Penn State I knew we weren’t losing either.

So it’s been 5 weeks knowing what’s coming. Sorry if you don’t understand ball enough to realize ahead of schedule what’s coming but my life is limited?

Holding my tongue here man. As a buckeye fan I knew what this was going to be months before most.

I feel like I’ve taken the loss btw better than about 99% of the board. So not sure why you’re coming hot at me

That is a long reply to 1 word. You want an JT or a Braxton every year? McCord was the best we had with what we had. He has hit darts. He has led to a comeback win. He makes mistakes. And if you mean DAY, come on. Who is gonna watlz in and make us great immediately? Not even Satan could come and make it work in 2-3 years.
