What a disappointing waste of 8,565 playmakers.. Sorry, but Ed should stick to coaching the line. He's in over his head trying to run this offense.

 

[lvbuckeye]

We miss Smith and Spencer a lot.

 

[Mike80]

No more clowning on twitter...This team has absolutely lost its direction. Complacency is very evident.

Time to focus and get to work...they're lucky the talent gap is such that NIU can't quite overcome it.

run THE Ball

One QB should get all the number one reps this week. It's clear that Urban actually didn't have a plan about the QB situation. JT should get all the starter reps this week.

 

[Steve19]

Really poor execution by the Buckeye offense. A lot of work ahead.

 

[scarletngray]

I think the play calling has been absolutely dismal today. Then there's the problem with execution.

 

[Honor&Glory]

i got nothing...its on everyone wearing a uniform and a headset last week and today.

On the bright side, it means we get to keep him for at least another year.

 

[kujirakira]

Fumbling handoff, penalties, late throw, 3 men getting pressure... this isn't all on coaching

 

[Onebuckfan]

Doesn't Warriner believe in his own line?

 

[buckmouse]

Bring back the read option with Miller and Elliot No more passing

Did a QB pull back the ball today on a Read option?

 

[Mike80]

Doesn't Warriner believe in his own line?

That's what I don't get - he coaches these guys, he knows they are good, but we keep seeing the same cutesy shit that they aren't executing at all....

No need to blame the entire team, just the offense. The defense have played their asses off bailing the offense out for two consecutive weeks.

This football team needs to take a long look in the mirror tomorrow morning and decide what they want to accomplish...and honestly I think Urban Meyer is happy it came to this.
