I love our Glenville sleeper agents. Fine job, Bentley!

Chase Farris might be struggling mightily in pass protection, but he sure punished his man on that TD run.

Ok, the score is now officially what it should be. I'll stop complaining about the non-td

IT SHOULD BE 35-3

 

[MililaniBuckeye]

On the pass plays at least..

They were also tough against the run in the first half. But now they look like they couldn't even stop me...almost.

Pass pro has been awful all game... give him more than 2 seconds to throw. Amazing how we are dominant rushing the ball but can't protect our QB when he drops back

They rush 5 every play, and our o line can't stop it. No quick screens available because they are playing everyone up to the LOS. Need to call a play with Brax or Marshall burning them and try to get the ball to him quick 10 yards deep.

When was the last time we called a screen play?

 

[youra6]

Watched them do it when JT got his first start at Rutgers, watched them handle the best D we played all year (PSU), and watched them go bananas last year when it mattered most.

But you're right, this team that is up by 25 points won't know how to play up to their opponent...

Except Rutgers is garbage and worse than Illinois. I'm saying what evidence do you have we will play good against a good team?

 

[buckeyes_rock]

181 yards for Zeke today so far. Run blocking has been solid but haven't been able to pass block at all...need to get that buttoned up by next weekend.

 

[SEREbuckeye]

Just don't get it. We are picking up 10 yards a pop on the ground and we pass the ball instead.

If we went 3 and out with 3 straight runs people would be complaining for more passes to open it up (go back about 50 pages in this thread).

Been getting beat around the end all day

Bosa and co. can pin their ears back now??

 

[Onebuckfan]

Living in Illinois they will be celebrating they held us under what Alabama did.

What's the point of remaking Point Break? Because Total Recall and every other remake did so well? Looks like a Jeep commercial dumpster fire.
