Game Thread tOSU at Cal Bears, Sep 14, 7 ET, Fox

It was but we have done away with cable and stream on Roku and use a HDTV antenna. It is only times like this that we miss having cable, but for the most part do not miss the hundreds of channels that we were paying for that we never watched.

I don't have the strength to do that, I need those worthless channels

Cal has thrown 63 and 51 times in their first 2 games

this will be a test for the secondary....hopefully they come to play

Our secondary will have their hands full and hopefully our defensive front four
can put a good rush on their QB,

 

[Taosman]

Cal's defense gave up 435 yards.................in the first half!!!!!!!! Portland ran them ragged using the Pistol.

I'd like to see the good guys up by 35 at the half and KG in at QB the entire second half. Given our last experience with it, I'd rather avoid the Heisman and win the NC.

Good guys 56-9 with style points.

I would leave the stadium very happy with that result.

I'm thinking it's gonna be a close game.

48-20.

Our d Line needs to be coached to get their hands up this week...the best weapon against the 3 step drop is pressure up the middle but the second is the batted ball. I want to see some tipped passes this week.

I'm thinking it's gonna be a close game.

48-20.

Sounds about right..corners play soft and no inside pressure allows Goff to put some points on the board.

Sounds about right. And then we drop another 4 spots in the polls. But hoping for an absolute ass smashing.

I know we need style points but I care more about holding them to low points more than us scoring a ton. Ideally 50-60 points for us of course but I'd really like to see us limit their passing to 200 yards with 10 or less points. With that accomplished I'd be fine with a mere 40 points Seriously, making headlines by shutting down the best passing team would make me the most happy.

 

[WaitingforKickoff]

Going to be a nice test. This Cal team played NW tough and might've done something sans the unfortunately pick 6's. Like that our back seven are healthy and playing well.

Might be a blowout, but going with 38-21 for now.

 

[MililaniBuckeye]

Cal gave up 518 yards to Northwestern and 553 yards to FCS Portland State. No reason why we can't run up 500-600 yards of offense and 40+ points...

Our front four needs to put a shitload of pressure on Goff and our corners can't be playing 8-10 yards off the LOS, lest we get picked apart...

I'd be more than happy about putting 40 up and would love to limit their passing game. Just hate "style points". Just don't like blowing teams out by 50-60 points (unless michigan or penn state or wisconsin). Especially when teams are keeping their starters in for the whole blow out. Too big of a risk for injury and it's not very sportsman like. If it's your scrubs and their 1st team can't stop them, then that may just be their problem.

Not to sound harsh, but fuck sportsmanship when it comes to final score. It's very clear the environment Ohio State plays in rewards beating the absolute dogshit out of teams they should. therefore, you just gotta do it.

This isn't AYSO and everyone gets an orange slice and a trophy at the end of it.
