W

On the road vs a "ranked" team.

hated the way they played, but they won. I'll leave it at that!

:osu:

bro. After the last 2 weeks I'm just glad for a win! And in 2 weeks I'll be at the Shoe for the first time rooting my ass off just like every week! I absolutely love the hell out of this team, through the thick and the thin. GO BUCKEYES!!!

Very nice win. The D played GREAT.

The offensive play calling is still a humongous head scratcher. The excessive use of draws used for the nearly vacant passing game was remarkable. Ramzy did a pretty hilarious write up on it. http://www.elevenwarriors.com/2011/10/puntageddon

I say we work on doubling our passing production from the Illinois game- should open up the draw play.

Ok, you help the team with that I'm gonna go learn voodoo so I can ritualistically sacrifice a wolverine next Sat and jinx Wisconsin so we have a shot at the B1G championship

Of course you meant to say a Badger, but keep that Wolverine in the cage. You can start working on him soon too. My oven has a rotisserie in it...

I'm still going oh-fer watching a game this season. A bud from Canada arrived for a visit Fri night and couldn't get away to tune in. Happy, just the same, to have some good news to read with my morning coffee.

Its a W, I'll take it.

Is it wrong that I wanted to us win with 0 pass yards? Well if we only have one completion all game I'll take that

Yes, b/c the program would like to continue to attract great receivers and qbs. Not that one game would do this but it doesn't help.

Sorry I got ahead of myself... I'm new to this whole voodoo thing but if it works I'm gonna have a hell of a time getting lion for the 19th.

Oh and friends don't let friends miss games

I think we need to get a live chicken.

I hate that Carlos Hyde got limited carries yesterday.

I'm very happy for the team and the win, but I just hate the message being sent. Carlos should have gotten the start.

 

[Taosman]

Why would anyone complain about Hyde not getting more carries when Heron and Hall were terrific yesterday? Hyde is a great kid and a team player and knows the current pecking order. His future is all in front of him and he'll get plenty of carries.

 

[Taosman]

It was a great job of playing to our strength, yesterday. Who cares how many passes were thrown. In the future wouldn't mine hearing people say about Brax;
"All he does is throw touchdowns!"

Now if only we can get someone who makes people go "catch" instead of "throw"... :osu:
