If you want to play physical coach, run the damn ball to pull those safeties down and get Marv 1 on 1!

Our OL is soft 36..run blocking is abysmal

 

[dragurd]

Played significantly better on offense, just didn't get the TD. McCord looks better, actually don't hate the playcalling.

Defense also improved. I'm just glad they're looking better after a rough start.

I only hate the short side toss on 2nd Down otherwise they were doing well

 

[Bill Lucas]

Or we could be up two scores. The throw to Egbuka is on Egbuka. Beautiful throw.

 

[BuckeyesGunn]

Not high praise from Day about McCord. He seems frustrated with him.

IMHO Day was fired up and knows EXACTLY what needs to happen in the second half and is on it.

 

[TampaBuckeyes]

I’ll take 3-0 at the half right now. The way I see it ND won that half (except for the missed FG) and our guys just started to hit their stride at the end. And we’re still up.

 

[Merih]

Honestly think we need to “respect” them less on offense in second half. They are iffy in coverage and they move their safeties around so much there’s also some deep shot available. Not a coincidence our best rhythm was spread out and working all the receivers.

Defense couldn’t ask for more but need to rise to occasion right after half time so we keep that momentum

Fun game to watch at least!

 

[BB73]

Bring me the page from the playbook with that toss play and give me five minutes in the bathroom with it.

Are you going to call the MSU sexual harassment prevention woman while you’re in there?

Every 2nd down feels like a wasted play.
We're deliberately handicapping ourselves and i dont know why.

 

[Jake]

Both teams got stopped on 4th down in the red zone. They missed a FG, we made ours.

Big possession to start the third. Can't let them march down and score a TD. The place would be rockin' in a bad way.

They are also holding Marv and sometimes Egbuka Fleming or Stover every fucking play

Tend to agree. I think he saw weaknesses in their defense in the last part of the half.

Day: “I’m pissed about that”


Good.

Then call better plays

almost EVERY drive we do this

Could have went after an experienced QB in the portal. He chose McCord and Brown.

 

[1926Buckeyes]

I guess I'm the only one feeling good rn. That half could've gone a lot worse. The O is starting to find a rhythm. Just need to finish drives

Agree. They weathered the first quarter, it felt precarious there for a bit. If they can keep building on it after the half they'll get a few TDs.
