Game Thread tOSU at Illinois, Nov 16, 12 ET, ESPN

[Jake]

I'm almost to the point where I hope Baylor, Stanford and Auburn jump us so some people will stop fucking obsessing over the BCS crap after every play.

 

[Clarity]

I know it's been a long time since we had to deal with loss fallout here (or at any OSU fan site), but let's please not do the angry fan drill where people end up drawing well deserved temp bans (especially since this isn't and won't be a loss.)

Ok, let's not get Brax hurt when we have Carlos...

 

[scarletngray]

Hermon showing ILL that our QB can run the ball too.

 

[kujirakira]

Really hate to see Miller rushing it right now... I already had a heart attack worried he's injured and this game just isn't worth it.

 

[Bestbuck36]

At this point i just really want an undefeated BiG Championship. Anything more than that is gravy. At times they look like title contenders but other times not close

 

[scarletngray]

Want a TD here men. Let's get this 1st down.

 

[NFBuck]

Brax is, um, not crisp with his throws today aside to the toss to Philly.

 

[Steve19]

Nathan Scheelhaase has now rushed for three times more yards than his average per game this year.

 

[buckeyebri]

Ah yes the Cooper years...

 

[AuburnBuckeye]

If we finish the season 13-0 we will not be behind ANY teams with a loss. Thank you, that is all

 

[kippy1040]

I am really puzzled over their performance today. We sure do not look like a #3 ranked team

I don't understand how anything about this game makes anyone worried about our ability to play with any of the other top teams. Every one of them has had a game like this.

 

[TooTall]

Gotta regain the kicker's confidence somehow?

Hey Mr. Spencer: Do you still think tOSU would "wipe the field" with BAMA or FSU? This is exactly one of many reasons why you keep your mouth shut.

In fairness, he said that in a way meant to be a funny statement, not a serious evaluation. He shouldn't have said it, but he is getting hit harder than he deserves for it. I agree with the point that you make, of course.
