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

[JCOSU86]

Christ, between the no-holding-ever non-calls and OSU's poor tackling they are making Illinois look good.

Lol, they call a holding call with 46 seconds left. Fuck you, Big 10 Refs

Yes, MSU can run the ball and we know about their defense, moron announcer team. We also know that Ohio State is also a top ranked rushing defense and that MSU doesn't have an offense.

I'm not as confident as I was but geez, lay off the hyperbole.

Wait, the B1G is still down? No, really?

MSU will give us a game, but I do like how our D matches against their O.

60 points, 597 total yards, 447 yards rushing, 7 sacks, 2 interceptions including a pick six....

Yes, statistics can be deceiving.

Good!

We "wiped the field" today 60 - 35. 22 in a row. Lou defending the Bucks and MM being his best MM self

Let's hope that it's all the pollsters look at and that whoever files the AP game recap is a drunk Buckeye fan.

 

[TooTall]

Suddenly Ohio State is "pretty impressive"

"Forget about where they belong in the BCS, Urban Meyer is noteworthy"

"Only going to get better"

SHUT THE FRONT DOOR.

No shit. They do everything wrong, until they do something right in ESPN's eyes.

 

[Telekinesis]

No one in the top 3 had a tough schedule this year. How ridiculous. And a Stanford team who lost to a 4-5 Utah team will never jump an Ohio State team that hasn't lost a game in two seasons. If that happens, I will take my next paycheck and use it to buy nothing but alcohol.

 

[Steve19]

What is this "holding" of which you speak?

So, true. My favorite is when Spencer tipped a pass and was trying to catch it as an Illini lineman pulled him around with a horsecollar tackle. If you noticed, it had degraded to tackling some of the Buckeye rushers by the end.

Good night everyone.

 

[TooTall]

Really? Aside form his SCUM heritage aside, at least Greasebag did not openly harp on the Buckeyes. Everything he's said about the BCS is spot on, including how a 1 loss team has never jumped a undefeated BCS team.

His knowledge of football isn't the issue, it's his knowledge of everything else that makes him sound like a moron.

I think the turtle is on the left.

 

[TresselstillownsTSUN]

As shitty as our pass defense is, MSU can't consistently throw underneath like UI can.

But Indiana can.....

 

[SloopyHangOn]

With all the disagreement, I think we can all agree that execution in this game... especially on D, was far from A+.

I don't think you can expect a game like that again from this team. Coaching won't allow it.

 

[kujirakira]

As [Mark May]ty as our pass defense is, MSU can't consistently throw underneath like UI can.

But Indiana can.....

The one thing that worries me about MSU is if Braxton has another day like this... they might be the one team that could keep Hyde under 150yds

I think it was partially the wind and partially communication being off with WRs. I'm not worried about him throwing it in Indy. Didn't help that there were 4-5 40+ yard throws downfield that were basically wasted downs. Don't get the point in those at that stadium.
