Spread = smoke and mirrors

THIS.

I hate the spread. Unless your name is Auburn or aTM, it's a sh** offense.

So disappointed in Buckeye defense this year. Love my Buckeyes but that's not acceptable. :-(

 

[Buckeneye]

It wasn't Urban Meyers offenses that won him two championships.

Until this defense is to previous caliber, any offense we field won't matter.

The offensive coaching staff owes Carlos Hyde an apology

I feel sorry for him. They needed short yardage and you run to the outside with Braxton. Still can't believe the play calling.

The Defense is offensive

 

[alexhortdog95]

You guys have had so many dropped balls this evening on wide open receivers...sheesh.

 

[buckeyemania11]

Coaches lost this game....mind boggling playing calling

So glad the mediots are getting their wish.....pumpkin

Did I miss something. Why did the clock run off 20 seconds after miller got out of bounds?

 

[Mike80]

No one makes plays when it's on the line with this team.

There is no killer instinct. As late as 2010, any one player on the field would as soon rip your guts out as beat you on the field. It's just not there with this group right now.

We choked this game Away

 

[strohs]

It's not the coaches fault that the bucks are so thin at lb. what concerns me is that this defense tries to knock people down rather than wrap them up.

Its not the linebackers, its the secondary. They don't have a clue what they are doing at times (well, most of the time)

 

[HenryMuto]

Led this game 24-17 and had the INT right in our hands failed to get it and fell apart after that. Good season guys but this is heart wrenching way to end the NC dreams.

 

[Mike80]

have the receivers never caught a pass in their lives?

Where the hell is Heuerman?!?!?!

 

[iBucki]

Well, it was fun while it lasted. I for one enjoyed the 24 straight wins. Hopefully this leads to some desperately needed changes on defense and a strong rebound in 2014. Go Bucks!

Defense blew it, but so did offensive coaching and dropped passes.
Just a failure in every aspect except maybe special teams.
