Fuck kickers. Who needs a kicker? I’m an offensive genius! I score touchdowns!

Unless his vagina gets too idk whatever, and then he completely forgets everything about football.

It wasn't guys you need to stop playing feelings ball here. Here was 3 of the 5 2nd half drives. Only one was run run pass

Maybe run, run pass would have taken more time off the clock. I think some of those incompletions were Sayin trying to force it to Smith too much.

 

[Captain Buckeye]

Did any other receiver catch A pass?

No…that’s the biggest issue I have.

No Devin McQuin, just one catch from Brandon, and no catches from the freshman.

There was no offense after half time. Absolutely nothing.

Then when we needed it they tried to ramp it up and it was too late.

All we had to do was get one fourth down stop or one more freaking score and it was over.

This is absolutely the biggest choke job I’ve ever witnessed

Day and this entire team is gonna have to get over this quick. With road games against Indy, So Cal and Iowa and home games against Oregon and the Skunkbears this season could get ugly and stay ugly fast.

Let's hope they come together like they did after the close loss on the road against the Ducks in 24'.

Time will tell...

The close road loss to Oregon wasn't an all time level choke job. I don't think Day is the guy that gets his team to rebound from something like this.

It took a literal player mutiny to win the '24 title. do you honestly trust him?

Yup this is a scary loss. Losing by a point in a back and forth on the road is one thing but blowing a lead in this fashion is damaging.

This was a Level 3 loss if you go by the Bill Simmons (he's a douche bag) scale.

Level III: The Slow Bleed – Watching your team slowly fall apart or blow a big lead over a full game or series.

Yeah usually when he had Innis or someone else open plus other then the bell Mcuin throws a lot of them were inaccurate and either gave them no chance to make a play or made the play harder than it had to be. 2 were drops by Smith one where he let it get into his body another where he just tried to one hand one across the middle be could have gotten 2 hands on

Well luckily I could play next week for OSU and we’d win.

But I agree this is just a brutal loss. This isn’t as bad as UGA 2023 but it’s close

We need more mutiny then.

That and Chip Kelly is a good college level OC, sucked in the nfl but solid in ncaa.

However you feel about Smith, he’s not Chip Kelly when all chip has to do is call
Plays.

Sayin is not a leader and he is still not moving well in the pocket. I hope they at least win the Michigan game and the Big-10.

 

[TJbuck12]

Yes

McCuin had 1

Inniss had 1

Roberts had 1

Mason Williams had 2

Good ball distribution. By the way, how many did Smith have?
