tOSU @ Northwestern, Sat Nov 5, 12pm, ABC

[DaddyBigBucks]

Completely outplayed by a team entirely comprising athletes that could not make Ohio State's 2-deep

 

[HenryMuto]

Pretty safe to say at this point Ohio State won't cover the spread and we are just worried about getting a win by any margin.

#99 for NW is killing us.

Miyan Williams is just too slow.

Jones gets his block instead of tippy towing through air, Williams goes for a TD. 6-8, 368lbs and wiffed like a punk

Let’s see some Trayanum. Can’t be any worse

 

[Captain Buckeye]

At this point Fryes honeymoon is over.

This is Ryan Day's bed.

He created this big 12 offense and now he needs to unfuck it.

 

[Drubuck]

1st qt be like

Playing like this, they will lose The Game again this year.

Hell they’re going to lose this game

Negative. This is scheme. The scheme does not lend itself to running the ball for whatever reason. Every time they run the ball, there's 1 blocker and 2 defenders at the point of attack. Either the formations aren't varied enough to pull a defender out OR the play calling is so obvious teams know where it's going.

I mean maybe but to my super amateur eyes, it looks like the o-line is getting ZERO push and not holding blocks.

This feels awful. Get your heads out of your asses!

 

[Nati-Toledo Bucks]

Someone take the QB. They will fix this.

i ain’t scared of them throwing the ball. 7 man fronts all day and have someone ready if the qb keeps it on the read option.

Where is our boy Rossi at? Hes a mean fucker.

There are 3 quarters to go. But that first quarter? Air Force vibes.

Add in this is a zone daylight running scheme, it's not a line that's been pushing people around....and zone running schemes are very disrupted by aggressive slanting and blitzing.

Maybe someday Day will figure out there are going to be games where you have to be able to outmuscle a team instead of just throwing over them.

Where is our boy Rossi at? Hes a mean fucker.

He was in on that play...he tried to block the outside guy and the inside linebacker made the tackle.
