Game Thread tOSU vs. Northern Illinois, Sat 9/19 @ 3:30pm ET, ABC/ESPN2

You're right, let's just continue to pound the edge even if it doesn't work... Those sweeps are really stretching defenses. Oh wait..

Please tell me where I said anything of the sort?

Let's review my posts that you're taking issue with...

After Samuel fumble:
Fucking hell
This isnt coaching

After game:
27/101yds 3.7ypc
23/108 4.7ypc

But fumbling exchange, fumbling snap, 3 bad interceptions (almost a 4th), fumbling RB, 7 penalties (mostly on OL) - same # as last week too

That's not coaching.
There's room for improvement with playcalling. But the big problems (5 turnovers, drive-killing penalties) aren't on the coaches.

Play call to Samuel to the edge that gets a couple of yards, then fumble. Not playcalling. Riiiight.

I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree, because you've clearly made your stance, and I have mine. Arguing about it at this point is petty. A win is a win! Right?!

It's killing me that everyone wanted Herman fired last year yet now the offense is struggling this year, for two games, he was the reason Urban Meyer's offense was so good. :lol:
Agree but this offense the last two games kind of reminds me of the Herman (sp?) square peg/round hole offense of two years ago. I'm not real sure of what our offensive identity is or what exactly they are trying to do at times but whatever it is isn't working. Hats off to Fickel and Ash for this game.

Post Game Thoughts:
Glad for the win
Silver Bullets are back! Impressive play at every position.
Lee is a monster off the edge. He forced a lot of early throws.
We got pressure on the QB all day long.
Great schemes by Fick and Ash
We have a top 5 D
Enough of the Heisman talk
The O is beyond pedestrian
The play calling on O is not good right now. Neither is our execution. The only real difference from last year is we have a new OC, RB and QB coach. Growing pains? We certainly had some early on least year. We know the talent is there so ??????
We seem to have real problems with 3-4 Defenses.This needs to get fixed right away.
Good news? We are 3-0 and these things can be fixed

GO BUCKS!!

It would be swell if we could EVER run a pop pass to Braxton. Best open field runner in college football. Very average operator of the option. Make the defense account for him horizontally every play and bask in the glorious constraints behind that.

Well we finally ran the first one all year to Samuel it worked pretty well. But yeah I'd like more of that then the jet sweep for the 1000th time

I've always been a "trust the coaches" guy. The defense is not a concern at this point.

Does anyone here honestly believe Urban muhfucking Meyer doesn't have a plan? Does anyone think the problems won't be fixed? I mean, for fucks sake, if there's one coach in the country that will have his offense clicking sooner rather than later, it's him.
Like if Beck is the problem...which I seriously doubt, does anyone think Urban will let that shit slide?
