For a minute there I thought we were Northwestern:(

Our D finally has found their identity..BAD!!!

 

[DaddyBigBucks]

101 points total in 2 straight games

What're the odds of 3-in-a-row

 

[buckeyboy]

Fickell is probably not going to sleep well tonight. They won but this in unacceptable. I'm not asking for a perfect defence but progress needs to be made and thye regress each week.

 

[End of Line]

I have never seen such a poorly officiated game in my life...Every call went Indiana's way.

Regardless this D is a joke.

 

[Boostinlsj]

Jesus tits........da fuck did I just watch LOL

 

[ysubuck]

Let's let this sink in for awhile.

Indiana kicked the ever loving shit out of the defense tonight.

There is no way that there should be any celebration whatsoever in that locker room.

The defense is absolutely shameful.

Indiana. It's fucking Indiana folks. I see a drop out of the top 10 after this fiasco.

Not going to name names, but I wouldn't put this mainly on Fickell and Vrabel. For one thing, the 15 yard cushion we regularly enjoy giving opposing wr's, especially on 3rd and short, simply HAS to go. Poor to decent tackling all around, some poorly designed coverage schemes, corners and safeties seemed to get beat relatively often, going for big hits over wrapping up. I don't know what to say

[censored] me

I think the Fickell/Vrabel era may have come to an end tonight...I mean, obviously at the end of the season, but...

Bingo. I think it is deserved....

 

[buckeyes_rock]

I've said this before, but SOMEONE on this board has to have Heacock's number.

Also, we should be unranked. This is [censored]ING INDIANA. THIS IS [censored]ING PATHETIC

I'm going to hazard a guess that we drop out of the top 10 after this crap

 

[youra6]

They weren't playing that well when no one was hurt.

They didn't play "well" before this game, but this was a stinker on a whole nother level

 

[Drubuck]

Defense is awful and Offense puts up points but is inconsistent at times. NO excuse for our D playing the way they did. Thinking there will be some different coaches on the sidelines next year as the D has been beyond underwhelming all season. Was really rooting for Vrabel and co. too. Oh well, 7-0 isn't a bad record no matter what way you look at it. LONG way to go.

Mods, I am not taking the bait you have planted on here to try and get me banned for bashing the coaching staff

I shall not bash a Buckeye coach or player on this site, or I will leave for longer than 14 days. Period. No warnings, no edits, no lengthy PM debates....straight out the door.

I refuse to be defeated. I will not lose to a conspiracy. But my gosh our D stinks

 

[Honor&Glory]

I'm numb...I feel like Ohio State lost. :(

I know injuries and already being thin at some positions going in to the season are part of the problem...but something just isn't sitting right about this defense.

 

[Bucklion]

leaving some folks out, no?

Yeah, but that's where it will start, especially since Urban didn't really pick them. He is already making the plans to have their locks changed December 1 on the plane ride home.
