Game Thread tOSU at Wisconsin, Sat, Oct 16, 7:00 ET; ESPN

[Jaxbuck]

Lou Holtz didn't win as many games as he did in his lifetime and a national championship by being a dolt. This guy knows football. Do you really think Woody would have ever had a guy on his staff that was a complete idiot? I know Lou was only here one year, but there was a reason woody was pissed and sad to see him go. This guy could flat out coach and motivate a team perhaps like no other.....

+1

Don't let the role he currently plays for ESPN fool you. In his day there were few better than Lou.

I've tried all week to be worried about this game or let the line movement scare me. I just don't feel it. Barring a complete meltdown I think they smack Bucky right in the fucking mouth.

BTW I forget who posted it originally but this needs to go up every year for Wisconsin week.

[Jax] I see this game as going OK for the Buckeyes as long as the offense remains opened up. If they let the better athletes do their thing, tOSU should win by a couple of scores. If they button it up and get into a slugfest, anything could happen. [/Jax]

I know I'm channeling you, but I really believe that about this game.

Demented minds and all...

Actually I see it like this: OSU will get 10-11 offensive possessions. If they turn those into 21+ points they win. If they fuck around and score any less than that, they are inviting disaster.

And here is a straight gif file with no restrictions on size:

I think it's funny when Hazel walks over. He must not have liked it very much.

Heyward doesn't seem to like it either.

Dang, I hope we quiet that stadium this weekend.

Lot of analysis here, but no-one has said anything about the matchup between Bucky Badger and Brutus Buckeye!

Personally, I think Brutus will slip those arm tackles and run right over Bucky.

Scout team QB/RBs trying to be Pryor

Laughable. Although I can't imagine any team in America having someone on their team capable of emulating TP.

2009 - shall have a few INTs and a kick off return again in 2010? or will the offense be more dominant? or Both? I say both! Tolzien won't be looking for any high fives in 2010. Hilarious. Go Bucks.

Quack - from the story.

"Jeff's a pretty good running back out there, showing us a little shake and bake," Valai said. "It's the best we've got right now. He's got a little duck arm. I guess we know when Jeff's in, he's going to run the football, that's the only difference (from Pryor). They both give us a good look out there. That's the best look we can have."

 

[CHU]

Kind of wish some national analysts would realize that if a team has two Pick 6's and one kickoff return for a touchdown, the other team may dominate time of possession and perhaps yardage.

Could really care less about stats Saturday, as long as OSU wins.

I am not worried about this game in the least. This is not the Illinois game and the 25 mph winds. We are going to score in this game. If we can keep Clay in check (and we are pretty damn good at stopping the run), we are going to win, regardless of whether this game is in Madison.

This is a different OSU team than we have seen. I love the pass first mentality the staff has taken, and with the weather being good I am feeling very confident.

Iowa game...well that may be a different story.

 

[Zander42]

Yeah, this game is strength versus strength and our strength is stronger.

This is what I think. Going into the Rose Bowl, the Ducks thought we would run the snot out of the ball. We passed and passed ...

Last week we passed a little bit too. Then we ran. Time for misdirection. We pass to the RBs, and run the WRs and pass to TP. TP catches a few from JH and Saine passes one to a wide open Stoneburner on an open pass/run. This could see some Boise State like trick bag plays. Why not open the playbook and see what happens.

How about Sanzo and Posey both in the wildcat, snap to either one and watch the hash marks fly by. Posey takes a handoff from Herron as Sanzo runs deep, and Posey throws it deep to a wide open Pryor in the opposite corner.

Time to wake up now and wait for the Buckeye beatdown to begin. Herron up the gut and Sanzo on skinny post...or we'll see on Saturday - Let's Jump Around!
