i hope we get up 42-7 by halftime and then just take a knee for each offensive play in the 2nd half. show those crybaby penn state whiners that we could have taken it even easier on them....we just plain don't like them.

I have to disagree.

The game plan for the next 4 opponents should involve Urban telling the coordinators to get the Gimp.

They are flat out awful this year

122nd in scoring offense
106th in scoring defense

they average 2.7 ypc rushing as a team

qbs combine for 50% completion 7 td 10 int

basically they struggle badly in every aspect of the game....Purdue has given tOSU fits over the years but their squad this year is some kind of awful and this game should not be close

So whats the spread? 100 pts?

Not sure how I can agree with both of these...I would love a 42-7 halftime score and all knees after the half just to rub it in...but yes, realistically we should have a ready supply of plungers available for the next few weeks if they want to stay in the title discussion.

I think Kenny G. should start; if we "need" Braxton, bring him in.

Braxton tweaked his knee last week... why have some frustrated DE take him out?

I know he doesn't want to get "rusty". That's what Illinois and Indiana are for.

If Kenny G starts, it's 42-0 at half time.

(Yes, if Miller starts, it's 55-0 at halftime.)

After Hyde gets his 100 yards, pull him. Then Hall, Smith, Elliot, etc.

Nothing good can come out of this game, not really. If we beat them by 75 it just means we're jerks.

So be it!

I say, 72-6, OSU.

Urban knows his team cannot struggle (in other words, win big) to keep the 1 loss teams (and 2 loss SEC teams) from passing them in the ESPiN polls.

I can see this one getting ugly early. I wouldn't be surprised if the halftime score is something along the lines of 35-0 or 42-0. I'll take a final score of 56-7.

(Incidentally, the pedsters will use this as further fax and evidents in their argument that Urban ran the score up on them, since he stopped at 56 against Stinky Pete.)

Start fast, work on what we need to, don't show more than we have to, get up by 35-40 and then start pulling starters. Send KG for awhile and then see if Cardale can actually throw a pass. Scoring 100 isn't worth the risk of injury to our starters and we should be able to get to 50+ with our back-ups against Purdon't.

I know what you mean here but in point of fact a 1 loss team can't pass OSU in the BCS.

I haven't done the BCS math in several years but from what I remember the 1 loss essentially makes it mathematically impossible.

We'll find out if Alabama loses to LSU. They still have Auburn as a quality game as well as the SEC championship
